The name of the program is 'devctrl.mpexl.telesup', as in the following
example, which we execute at system startup time on our 987:

xeq devctrl.mpexl.telesup 38;compression=disable

From memory ( I am at home, looking at email only) this can be called
from the command line with no parameters, and it will tell you the
current settings.

Chris.
