Configuration

Table 3-15. Communication Port Options (2 of 4)

Stop Bits

Possible Settings: 1, 2

Default Setting: 1

Determines the number of stop bits used for the COM port.

1 ± Provides one stop bit.

2 ± Provides two stop bits.

Ignore Control Leads

Possible Settings: Disable, DTR

Default Setting: Disable

Specifies whether DTR is used.

Disable ± Treats control leads as standard operation.

DTR ± Ignores DTR. This may be necessary when connecting to some PAD devices.

Login Required

Possible Settings: Enable, Disable

Default Setting: Disable

Determines whether a user ID and password (referred to as the login) is required in order to log on to the asynchronous terminal connected to the COM port.

Display Conditions ± This option only appears when Port Use is set to Terminal.

Enable ± Requires a login to access the menu-driven user interface.

Disable ± Does not requires a login.

Port Access Level

Possible Settings: Level-1, Level-2, Level-3

Default Setting: Level-1

Specifies level of user access privilege for an asynchronous terminal connected to the COM port. If a login is required for the port, the effective access level is determined by the user's access level. When a login is not required, the effective access level is determined by this option.

NOTE: The effective access level is always the lowest one assigned to either the port or the user. For example, if the Port Access Level assigned is Level-2, but the User Access Level is Level-3, then only level-3 access will be permitted for the port.

Display Conditions ± This option only appears when Port Use is set to Terminal.

Level-1± Allows full access and control of the device including monitoring, diagnostics, and configuration. The user can add, change, and display configuration options, and perform device testing.

Level-2± Allows limited access and control of the device. The user can monitor and perform diagnostics, display status and configuration option information.

Level-3± Allows limited access with monitoring control only. The user can monitor and display status and configuration screens only.
