15 Receive Pattern Character Register

The Receive Pattern Character Register is used to set the character value to be

used in receive pattern detection. The address of this register is Base+B (hex). This
register can be ignored if the internal FIFOs are not being used.

character value (0-255)

Bit 0

Bits 7-0:

Receive Pattern Character:

This is

the numeric value of the character to be detected. See page 37 for details
on the receive character pattern detection feature.
