ND 241S DISPLAY TERMINAL VISUAL 200

INTRODUCTION

The ND 241S is a low cost microprocessor based video display terminal which truly stands above competitive teletype compatible terminals in its price range.

In addition to the most popular features available on competitive terminals, such as numeric pad, upper/lower case, editing, current loop, cursor addressing, columnar and field tab, etc., standard features which set the ND 241S apart and reach the optimum in human engineering and operator comfort include:

  • Detachable keyboard
  • Smooth scroll
  • Tilt and swivel screen
  • Large 7 x 9 dot matrix characters

Reliability designed into the ND 214S is evidenced by its solid state keyboard, single P.C. Board and self test diagnostics on power up.

Interface

The ND 241S is interfaced to a NORD computer via a 20 mA current loop interface (ND 271, ND 272) or the CCITT V.24 (EIA RS-232C) standard connection via modems and modem interface (ND 702, ND 711). A start/stop character format with two stop bits (11 bit code) is used. Parity bit generation and error detection use even parity. Transmission speed is switch selectable from 110 to 19200 baud.
