Problems with 700/9x Terminals
Occasionally a 700/92 or 700/94 terminal will refuse to work properly in Visual mode. Symptoms include Qedit saying that it is not a supported terminal, or giving the infamous "No // at end" message, when the "//" is clearly on the screen. We have found that resetting the terminal to factory default settings sometimes sets this right again. This is more than a regular soft or hard reset, more than turning the terminal off and on: it is a special reset, involving a reboot of the terminal firmware from ROM.
Verify the baud rate at which the terminal is configured, then log off the host, and power off the 700/9x terminal. Wait a few seconds, then turn the terminal back on WHILE HOLDING DOWN THE "D" KEY. Keep the "D" key pressed until you hear a beep. The terminal will show the message "default configs used". Set the baud rate, and ensure that the Xmit Pacing and Recv Pacing fields are both set to XON/XOFF. Log on again and try Qedit Visual mode.
