On Line Mode 
 
When you operate AUATC in On Line Mode, the main screen area 
displays your interactions with the ASCII device, as if it were the screen 
of an ASCII terminal. Simultaneously, the data stream being output by 
the device is stored in an eight-page circular buffer, so you can not only 
access and operate the device, but you can also review its historical data 
as needed. Because the buffer is circular, it always retains the most 
recent eight pages of data from the device; the newest data will overwrite 
the oldest data.
