 Parity

 

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. 

 

Options available: None/Even/Odd/Mark/Space. Default setting is 

None

.

  Stop Bits

 

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. 

 

Options available: 1/2. Default setting is 

1

.

  Flow control

 

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. 

 

Options available: None/Hardware RTS/CTS. Default setting is 

None
