Serial Port Protocol
Purpose: Allows you to set the protocol that the serial port uses to communicate with a host or
PC. Communications protocols determine exactly how data is transmitted between the
terminal and the host or PC. Each protocol has parameters you can set, such as baud
rate and parity. Both the terminal and the host or PC must use the same protocol and
parameters settings to communicate properly. For help on protocols, see the Data
Communications Reference Manual (Part No. 044737).
The terminal can communicate in these five protocols:
•
Binary
•
Configurable protocol
•
Master Polling
•
Polling Mode D
•
Multi-Drop
Note: You can only use Multi-Drop protocol on COM2 of the 2460.
Each protocol is described in Chapter 4, “Operating the Terminal in a Network.”
