Terminal Type
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 onto 1 or more bytes.
Choices: VT100, VT100+, VT-UTF8,
★
ANSI.
Bits per second
Selects serial port transmission speed. The speed must be matched on the other
side. Long or noisy lines may require lower speeds.
Choices: 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600,
★
115200.
Data Bits
Data Bits
Choices: 7,
★
8.
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.
Choices:
★
None, Even, Odd, Mark, Space.
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.
Choices:
★
1, 2.
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.
Choices:
★
None, Hardware RTS/CTS.
VT-UTF8 Combo Key Sup
Enable VT-UTF8 Combination Key Support for ANSI/VT100 terminals
Choices: Disabled,
★
Enabled.
Recorder Mode
On this mode enabled only test will be send. This is to capture Terminal data.
Choices:
★
Disabled, Enabled.
