The settings for parity, data bits, and stop bits are all set through 
the DIALER programs.  Look at the *.c files in /usr/lib/uucp.  There's
one for the Telebit, and it documents each of the settings, including
these three, and tells you which register is being set.

A quick mod to create a version of the dialer program, an addition to
the Devices file, and you can use a different dialer for this (and other
odd) site.
