Verifying communication settings

Many plotters have communications settings that are set using DIP switches or a control panel
on the plotter. Verify that communications settings for your plotter match the communications
settings for OMEGA 2.6. This is important for users of non-Gerber plotters so that you can set
up your plotter appropriately since OMEGA 2.6 communication settings cannot be changed.
OMEGA 2.6 sends data as follows:

♦

Baud Rate = 9600

♦

Parity = No

♦

Data Bits = 8

♦

Stop Bits = 1
