The documentation for 'stty' says:

       sane   same as cread -ignbrk brkint -inlcr -igncr icrnl  -ixoff  -iuclc
              -ixany  imaxbel  opost -olcuc -ocrnl onlcr -onocr -onlret -ofill
              -ofdel nl0 cr0 tab0 bs0 vt0 ff0 isig icanon  iexten  echo  echoe
              echok  -echonl  -noflsh  -xcase -tostop -echoprt echoctl echoke,
              all special characters to their default values.

Perhaps that is not a good option for you to use?

Exactly what stty settings are you wanting to set?  You did not say
and I cannot deduce them from the context of your email.

That is all correct.  I don't see any problems there.

There is no such argument.  The only arguments available are the ones
documented in the manual.
