Parameter (Command)

Description

Default Value

 

 

 

baud (BAUD)

The baud rate: 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400,

115200

 

19200, 38400 or 115200.

 

parity (PARITY)

The parity used: 0=none, 1=odd, 2=even,

0

 

3=mark, 4=space. The value can be positive

 

 

or negative: a positive parity is used upon

 

 

both transmit and receive; a negative parity

 

 

is used only upon transmit.

 

receive pacing

Controls whether receive pacing is used: a

0 (no pacing)

 

nonzero real value enables pacing, while

 

 

zero disables it. Receive pacing sends an

 

 

XOFF signal when the receive buffer is

 

 

almost full, and sends an XON signal when

 

 

it can take more data again. Pacing is not

 

 

used for Kermit I/O, but is used for other

 

 

serial I/O transfers.

 

transmit pacing

Controls whether transmit pacing is used: a

0 (no pacing)

 

nonzero real value enables pacing, while

 

 

zero disables it. Transmit pacing stops

 

 

transmission upon receipt of XOFF, and

 

 

resumes transmission upon receipt of XON.

 

 

Pacing is not used for Kermit I/O, but is

 

 

used for other serial I/O transfers.

 

checksum (CKSM)

Error-detection scheme requested when

3

 

initiating SEND:

 

 

 1=1-digit arithmetic checksum

 

 

 2=2-digit arithmetic checksum

 

 

 3=3-digit cyclic redundancy check.

 

translation code (TRANSIO)

Controls which characters are translated:

1

 

 0=none

 

 

 1=translate character 10 (line feed only)

 

 

to / from characters 10 and 13 (line feed

 

 

and carriage return)

 

 

 2=translate characters with numbers 128

 

 

through 159 (80-9F hex)

 

 

 3=translate characters with numbers 128

 

 

through 255.

 

 

 

 

Parameters without commands can be modified with a program by storing new values in the list contained in IOPAR (use the PUT command), or by editing IOPAR directly.
