Emulation:
ANSI: Extended ASCII char set.
VT100: ASCII char set.
VT100+: Extends VT100 to support color, function
keys, etc.
VT-UTF8: Uses UTF8 encoding to map Unicode chars

19200
38400
57600
115200
Selects serial port transmission speed. The speed
must be matched on the other side. Long or noisy
lines may require lower speeds.
Data Bits 7
8
Data Bits
Parity
None
Even
Odd
Mark
Space
A parity bit can be sent with the data bits to detect
some transmission errors.
Even: parity bit is 0 if the num of 1's in the data bits is
even.
Odd: parity bit is 0 if num of 1's in the data bits is odd.
Mark: parity bit is always 1.
Space: Parity bit is always 0. Mark and Space Parity
do not allow for error detection.They can be used as
an additional data bit.
Stop Bits
1
2
Stop bits indicate the end of a serial data packet. (A
start bit indicates the beginning). The standard setting
is 1 stop bit. Communication with slow devices may
require more than 1 stop bit.
Flow Control
None
Hardware RTS/CTS
Flow control can prevent data loss from buffer
overflow. When sending data, if the receiving buffers
are full, a 'stop' signal can be sent to stop the data
flow. Once the buffers are empty, a 'start' signal can
be sent to re-start the flow. Hardware flow control uses
two wires to send start/stop signals.
