COM Port Functions
The following functions of each communication port can be configured using KPG-D1/ D1N.
Table 19-10 COM Port Functions
Function
Description
Polarity
Polarity is the logic of data lines for sending data using a communication port where “GPS” is assigned.
However, Polarity of COM port 0 is fixed at Normal in order to communicate with KPG-D1/ D1N and the
configuration cannot be changed.
Stop Bit
Stop Bit is the bit information for sending data using a communication port where “Data”, “GPS”, “Data
+ GPS Data Output”, “Transparent”, or “Transparent 2 (NXDN)” is assigned. “1” or “2” can be configured
for Stop Bit.
However, for Mobile, Stop Bit of COM port 0 is fixed at “2” in order to communicate with KPG-D1/ D1N
and the configuration cannot be changed.
Baud Rate
Baud Rate is the communication rate for sending data using a communication port where “Data”, “GPS”,
“Data + GPS Data Output”, “Transparent”, or “Transparent 2 (NXDN)” is assigned.
Baud Rate can be configured by selecting from 1200 bps, 2400 bps, 4800 bps, 9600 bps or 19200 bps.

Serial Protocol Types
There are 2 types of serial protocols to be used for controlling a transceiver by using PC commands: Version 1 and Version
2. The serial protocol type (PC Interface Protocol) can be configured using KPG-D1/ D1N.
Table 19-11 Serial Protocol Types
Configuration
Description
Version 1
The command sequence of this version starts with STX (Start of Text) and ends with ETX (End of Text).
This version is compatible with transceivers that support the KENWOOD PC Interface Protocol.
Version 2
This version is almost the same as the Version 1 data format, but it has the command sequence of
Version 1 and a sequence number (SEQ).
