The Communication Settings parameters let you set the baud rate, parity, stop bit and data length for the first serial port (COM 1). The values are as follows:
∙Baud rate: 300 to 38,400 bits per second (BPS)
∙Parity: odd, even, or none
∙Stop bit: 1 or 2 stop bits
∙Data length: 7- or
There is one restriction on the options available for the communication status parameters. If your data length parameter is an
∙1 stop bit and odd or even parity
