Serial Port Parameters

In attaching a serial device to a Digi CM serial port, the port parameters must match. The serial ports by default are enabled, meaning you have full access to the port. To configure the port parameters for the Digi CM, do the following:

1.Access the web interface.

2.Under the Serial Port heading, Click Configuration.

3.Choose All or an Individual port > Serial port parameters.

4.Fill in the serial port parameters. The following are the defaults: bps=9600, data bits=8, parity=none, stop bits=1, flow control=none, and DTR behavior=High when open.

5.Click Save & apply

DTR Behavior

DTR can be set on the serial port to one of three settings: always high, always low, or High when open. Setting the DTR to High when open keeps the DTR high if a TCP connection is established. The DTR setting cannot be set by you when the host mode is configured for dial-in modem or dial-in terminal server mode.

Inter-character Timeout

This setting is only available when the host mode protocol is set for RawTCP. The parameter sets the time value for the Digi CM to transfer data stored in the buffer. The Digi CM transfers data when the buffer is full using the TCP/IP protocol. However, if it is not full, the Digi CM will also transfer data dependent on the timeout value selected.
