Parity
This bit checks the integrity of the transmitted data. Choices are:
Even, Odd, None, Mark, and Space. Set this to match the parity
setting of the connected device. Default is None (which is the default
for the majority of serial devices).
Stop Bits
This indicates that a character has been transmitted. Set this to
match the stop bit setting of the connected device. Choices are: 1,
1.5, and 2. Default is 1 (which is the default for the majority of serial
devices).

This allows you to choose how the data flow will be controlled.
Choices are: None, Hardware (RTS/CTS), and XON/XOFF. Set this
to match the flow control setting of the connected device. Default is
None.

choose CRLF to CR.
