Common settings:

RS-232C, 8-bit, No Parity, 1 stop = 0x4C

RS-232C, 7-bit, Even Parity, 1 stop = 0x78

RS-485, 2-Wire, 8-bit, No Parity, 1 stop = 0x4F

RS-422, 8-bit, Odd Parity, 2 stop = 0xDD

The bit combination can be easily converted to hexadecimal notation for input. See Appendix B for conversion tables.

Flow Control

This parameter sets the local handshake method for stopping and starting output. Generally, flow control is not required if the connection is used to pass a blocked protocol with block sizes <1k (ACK/NAK).

No flow control:

00

XON/XOFF flow control in both directions: 01

Hardware handshake with RTS/CTS lines: 02

XON/XOFF, pass characters to host:

05
