Data FormatThis parameter sets the transmit data format. The options are:
• 7 Data Bits (With Parity) (default)
• 8 Data Bits (With Parity)
• 8 Data Bits (Without Parity)
Stop Bit SelectThe stop bit(s) at the end of each transmitted character marks the end of transmission 
of one character and prepares the receiving device for the next character in the serial 
data stream. The number of stop bits (one or two) selected depends on the number the 
receiving terminal is programmed to accommodate. Set the number of stop bits to 
match host device requirements. 
Check ParityThis option determines whether the parity of received characters is checked. The type 
of parity used is selectable through the PARITY parameter.
