Not sure about the Ctrl-B but in your comm program in the ASCII setup there
should be a setting for line delay. A text editor should allow you to insert
ASCII characters for the CTRL-B.

> Hi, my name is mike, and I'm a newbie. I would like to congratulate Jon
Elson on his very clear explanation of Dnc and Comms, It can be a real can
of worms. Which brings me to ask: can anyone tell me how to save a "control
B" character to disk, so that I can download programs to my (old) Denford
pnc3 lathe? This controller needs this (hex 02) prefix to each line to open
comms,also a 1/2 sec delay at end of line,(while it thinks). I have no
problem communicating using a Terminal program, but can only type in from
the screen,might as well punch straight into the controller! Any suggestions
before I bin the controller, learn Linux and go for EMC!
