Last revision of this page: January 24, 2025

The Kaypro's emulate the Lear-Seigler ADM-3A terminal.


CURSOR CONTROL
  ring bell    -     7 dec - 07H
  cursor left  -     8 dec - 08H
  cursor right -    12 dec - 0CH
  cursor down  -    10 dec - 0AH
  cursor up    -    11 dec - 0BH
  home cursor  -    30 dec - 1EH
  clear scr & home  26 dec - 1AH
  carriage return   13 dec - 0DH

CURSOR POSITIONING
  rows              = 0 - 23 dec
  columns           = 0 - 79 dec
  escape sequence   = 27, 61 dec - 1BH, 3DH
  constant offset   = 20     dec - 14H

  So in Mbasic to position the cursor at row 12, col 40
  print chr$(27)chr$(61)chr$(20+12)chr$(20+40)
                ESC = row col
