Serial Communications Parameters

The following parameters configure the connection between the NETServer and the devices attached to its ports (modems). These parameters are independent of port type (such as user login and network dial in)

S0 only: Setting DIP switch 3 on (down) will override these settings and force the following:

Port Type:

Login

Baud:As configured by DIP switches 1 and 2

Byte Format:

8/N/1

Modem Control: Off

Port Speed

This is the baud rate of the port. You can set up to three baud rates. For connecting the port to modern data communications equipment, all three rates should be the same. However, some older equipment may require multiple rates. Use the following command:

set s<port #> speed <#> <baud rate>

The <#> can be 1, 2, or 3. If not specified, 1 is assumed. When a break character is received, the port will cycle through the three assigned rates. The baud rate can be any one of the following:

115200, 57600, 38400, 19200, 9600, 4800, 2400, 1200, 600, or 300.

Databits

This is the number of data bits per character the port is config- ured for. The default is 8.

set s<port #> databits <8 7 6 5>

Stopbits

This is the number of stop bits. The default is one.

set s<port #> stopbits <1 2>

Command Reference 10-47
