The control characters with the 8th bit set are usually called the C1
set. In ANSI X3.64-1979 (and NAPLPS, as I remember), they are as
follows.  I don't know if this corresponds to an ISO standard, though
it's fairly likely.

Hex	ANSI	Name	Function
----------------------------------------------------------------
84	8/4	IND	Index
85	8/5	NEL	Next Line
86	8/6	SSA	Start of Selected Area
87	8/7	ESA	End of Selected Area
88	8/8	HTS	Horizontal Tab Set
89	8/9	HTJ	Horizontal Tab with Justify
8A	8/10	VTS	Vertical tab Set
8B	8/11	PLD	Partial Line Down
8C	8/12	PLU	Partial Line Up
8D	8/13	RI	Reverse Index
8E	8/14	SS2	Single Shift 2
8F	8/15	SS3	Single Shift 3
90	9/0	DCS	Device Control String
91	9/1	PU1	Private Use 1
92	9/2	PU2	Private Use 2
93	9/3	STS	Set Transmit State
94	9/4	CCH	Cancel Character
95	9/5	MW	Message Waiting
96	9/6	SPA	Start of Protected Area
97	9/7	EPA	End of Protected Area

9B	9/11	CSI	Control Sequence Introducer
9C	9/12	ST	String Terminator
9D	9/13	OSC	Operating System Command
9E	9/14	PM	Privacy Message
9F	9/15	APC	Application Program Command
----------------------------------------------------------------

For more information on the precise meanings, see ANSI Standard X3.64.
