4.1.7 Data
Bits
5 to 8
This parameter sets the number of data bits for each word used by the protocol.
Valid entries for this field are 5, 6, 7 and 8.
4.1.8 Stop
Bits
1 or 2
This parameter sets the number of stop bits to be used with each data value
sent. Valid entries for this field are 1 and 2.
4.1.9 RTS
On
0 to 65535
This parameter sets the RTS presend delay. The value entered represents the
number of milliseconds the module will wait after setting the RTS modem line
before sending the data.
4.1.10 RTS Off
0 to 65535
This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds to delay after sending the
data frame before the RTS line is dropped.
4.1.11 Handshaking
Handshake code of N, Y, D, X
This parameter specifies the handshaking used on the port. The code values are
as follows: N=No hardware or software handshaking, Y=RTS/CTS hardware
handshaking, D=DTR/DSR hardware handshaking and X=XON/XOFF software
handshaking.
4.1.12 Rx Termination Type
Bit coded value of 0 to 15
This parameter specifies the receive termination characteristics for the port. This
value is bit mapped as follows: Bit 0 = Termination character(s) used,
Bit1=Message timeout used, Bit2=Intercharacter delay timeout used and
Bit3=Packet size limit used. If the parameter is set to zero, the port is placed in
stream mode.
4.1.13 Rx Term Count
0 to 12
