I'm not sure who might be able to help me with this but since it's an old
terminal
and I'm using it with a PDP-11 emulator, I thought I'd try these groups.

I have a Wyse 325 terminal that works fine with a PC and TeraTerm.
When I run it with the Ersatz-11 emulator, I can have to set it to
PC-terminal mode
in order to receive anything. VT-100 emulation doesn't work. In order to
type, though, I have to hold down the Select key or type a letter, then
press the
Select key. Does anyone here know about a problem with this? If so is
there
a solution? I'd really like to be able to use this terminal normally so I'd
appreciate any help you can give. TIA!

I have used the cheap Wyse terminals before at a PPoE, but I do
*not* know how to solve your problem... or even if there *is* a
problem with the terminal.

Try posting to <alt.folklore.computers> and <alt.sys.pdp11>.

Problem solved. I have to set DTR and CTS on in the emulator in order for it to work.
