Recently I bought a used VT101 terminal. I figured out how to use the SETUP and SETUP A/B and TOGGLE 1/0 keys to set it up how I want. I even have a chart about what all the indicator bits mean. The problem is when I turn the terminal off, it "forgets" the settings I typed in. So I have to set it up every time it gets powered-up. What I'd like to do is change the "permanent" default settings. How do I do that? Someone suggested looking for DIP switches. Someone else suggested looking for a dead battery. Someone else suggested finding a keyboard sequence to make my settings the default. Thanks in advance.
