I think you mean DBESCWT (speeks DB ESCape WaiT) and it controls the time in seconds (?) the system ist waiting for a complete esc-sequence. Otherwise it could happen (on slow lines for example) that the ESC-character is already interpreted and the following string (belonging to the ESC) are missinterpreted as ordinary characters.
