ISO 1745:1975 Information processing – Basic mode control procedures fordata communication systems is an earlyISO standard defining aTelex-oriented communications protocol that used the non-printableASCIItransmission control characters SOH (Start of Heading), STX (Start of Text),ETX (End of Text),EOT (End of Transmission),ENQ (Enquiry),ACK (Acknowledge), DLE (Data Link Escape),NAK (Negative Acknowledge),SYN (Synchronous Idle), andETB (End of Transmission Block).
It also defines a serial data format, consisting of a start bit, 7 bit ASCII (least significant bit first), aparity bit (even for asynchronous networks, odd for synchronous networks), and a stop bit.
The text of ISO 1745:1975 is not currently freely available,[1] but the correspondingECMA version is.[2] The protocol it defines seems to now be little used.[citation needed]
