You may also change the default settings for Parity, Number of Stop Bits, and Number of Data Bits to match the settings of your RS-232 application. The Serial Adapter will support any combination of 7 or 8 data bits, 1 or 2 stop bits, and one of the following parity settings: even, odd, mark, space, and none.

The Serial Adapter supports three Echo Modes: None, Simple, and Terminal. When no Echo is selected, the unit will not Echo the characters typed to the terminal screen.

The Serial Adapter supports several Flow Control options: Generate XON/XOFF, Recognize XON/XOFF, Generate CTS, Generate DSR, Recognize DTR, and Recognize RTS.

A Serial Adapter will pass flow control pin values over the radio to a remote Serial Adapter in order to simulate the activity of the control pins of a null modem cable.

The Serial Adapters will pass control pin values as follows:

Local Serial Adapter		Remote Serial Adapter
(initiated by host) RTS	→	CTS
(initiated by host) DTR	→	DSR
CTS	←	RTS (initiated by host)
DSR	←	DTR (initiated by host)

For example, when the attached RS-232 host asserts the RTS pin, the Serial Adapter will send this information to the remote Serial Adapter. In turn, the remote Serial Adapter will assert the
