I have received a Mime 314, but without a manual.  I have
used it with a 1200 baud modem with some success, except 
that I couldn't get it to respond to the unix command "clear."
So, in "vi" I couldn't get the  screen set up right.

I used to use the same model terminal with the termcap "mm340".

The terminal has 19 small switches on the back, and I suspect
I have a few set wrongly.  There's a set of 8, then 3, then 8.
If I remember correctly, the current settings are 
00000000 000 00010001   

I just noticed labels on another mime314 for the first set of
switches.  From left to right they are:
   T.O.1,    T.O.2,    Bit 8,    P.I.,    # of stop bits,  
   word length(2 switches),    E/O parity
The middle 3 switches are devoted to Full<->half duplex 
and off<->on closed loop.  The right bank are devoted to baud 
rate.

Does anyone know what the correct switch combination/termcap is?
