Port Settings

Protocol

From the drop-down menu, select the protocol type for

 

the selected channel. The default setting is RS232.

 

 

Flow Control

Flow control manages data flow between devices in a

 

network to ensure it is processed efficiently. Too much

 

data arriving before a device is prepared to manage it

 

causes lost or retransmitted data. None is the default.

 

 

Baud Rate

The unit and attached serial device, such as a modem,

 

must agree on a speed or baud rate to use for the serial

 

connection. Valid baud rates are 300, 600, 1200, 2400,

 

4800, 9600 (default), 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200, 230400,

 

460800, and 921600 baud. The default setting is 9600.

 

 

Data Bits

Indicates the number of bits in a transmitted data

 

package. The default setting is 8.

 

 

Parity

Checks for the parity bit. The default setting is None.
