(5) Stop Bit Selection

This parameter is to choose a stop bit of the RS-232C interface.

Be sure to match a setting with a host computer. When “<2>PARAMETER SET” appears, press the [PAUSE] key until the following display appears.

<2>PARAMETER SET STOP BIT 1bit

Use the [FEED] or [RESTART] key to select a desired option.

	STOP BIT 1bit
[RESTART]

	STOP BIT 2bits
[FEED]

After selecting a stop bit, press the [PAUSE] key.

(6) Parity Selection

This parameter is to choose the parity of the RS-232C interface.

When “<2>PARAMETER SET” appears, press the [PAUSE] key until the following display appears.
