Your PAD should actually conform to CCITT X.3 and X.28.  Flow control of
terminal characters is governed by X.3 parameters which should be
settable by either the user or the host.  Relevant parameters are:

Parameter 5 - Ancillary device control (flow control of the
					terminal by the PAD):
 0 => no use of X-ON and X-OFF
 1 => use of X-ON and X-OFF

Parameter 12 - Flow control of the PAD by the terminal:
 0 => no use of X-ON and X-OFF
 1 => use of X-ON and X-OFF

You should be able to control them from the keyboard with commands
such as:

	SET 12:0

etc.
