Parity

A parity bit can be sent with the data

None

 

bits to detect some transmission

Even

 

errors.

Odd

 

Even: parity bi is 0 if the num of 1's

Mark

 

in the data bits is even.

Space

 

Odd: parity bit is0if num of 1's the

 

 

data bits is odd.

 

 

Mark: parity bit is always 1.

 

 

Space: Parity bit is always 0.

 

 

Mark and Space Parity do not allow

 

 

for error detection.

 

 

 

 

Stop Bits

Stop bits indicate the end of a serial

1

 

data packet. (A start bit indicates the

2

 

beginning).

 

 

The standard setting is 1 stop bit.

 

 

Communication with slow devices

 

 

may require more than 1 stop bit.

 

Flow Control

Flow control can prevent data loss

None

 

from buffer overflow. When sending

Hardware RTS/CTS

 

data, if the receiving buffers are full,

 

 

a 'stop' signal can be sent to stop

 

 

the data flow. Once the buffers are

 

 

empty, a 'start' signal can be sent to

 

 

re-start the flow. Hardware flow

 

 

control uses two wires to send

 

 

start/stop signals.

 

Recorder Mode

When this mode enabled, only text

Enabled

 

will be send. This is to capture

Disabled
