DESCRIPTION

 

 

 

 

 

 

Port

Any valid com port

 

A character string to hold the direct communication channel

 

 

(hardware dependant)

 

name. For example, for the D20 valid communication ports are

 

 

 

 

"COM1" through "COM7".

 

 

 

 

 

 

Baud Rate

9600 (96)

 

This parameter indicates the baud rate to use. This must be set

 

 

4800 (48)

 

to the baud rate used by the master station.

 

 

 

A typical baud rate is 9600.

 

 

2400 (24)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1200 (12)

 

 

 

 

600 (6)

 

 

 

 

300 (3)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Parity

Even (E)

 

Parity type to use. This must be set to the parity used by the

 

 

Odd (O)

 

master station.

 

 

 

A typical setting is Even.

 

 

None (N)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Modem Enabled?

Yes (Y)

 

Modem enabled flag.

 

 

No (N)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Checksum

BCC (B)

 

Checksum format to use on message. This must be set to the

 

 

CRC (C)

 

checksum type used by the master station.

 

 

 

A typical setting is BCC.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Embedded Rsp

Yes (Y)

 

Embedded response enable flag. This must be set to match the

 

 

No (N)

 

master station capabilities.

 

 

 

A typical setting is Yes.
