Summagrid VII 13
 Stop Bits: Each character has one or two stop bits, which tell the receiving device
that a character is complete. The number of stop bits usually does not matter.
Setting for two stop bits instead of one may overcome a mismatch in parity or data
bits. Choices are: One (1) or Two (2).
 Parity: One bit can be allocated for parity (parity is a simple error-detecting
scheme). Both devices (sending and receiving) must be set for the same parity –
either odd parity or even parity – or they must be set for no parity. Choices are:
None (N), Even (E) or Odd (O).
Output Format Options
 GTCO: Selects GTCO-compatible formats. See Advanced Programing Information in
the Summagrid VII Online Help for greater detail on GTCO format structure.
Choices are: Binary high resolution, Binary low resolution, ASCII with spaces or ASCII
without spaces.
 CalComp: Selects CalComp-compatible formats. Choices are: Binary high
resolution, Binary low resolution, 9100 ASCII 1, 9100 ASCII 2, 9100 ASCII 3 or 9100
ASCII 4.
 Summa: Selects Summagraphics-compatible formats. Choices are: Binary, UIOF,
Binary MM, ASCII UIOF or ASCII MM.
ASCII formats can be modified by including or excluding a button code, decimal point,
carriage return or line feed, depending on whether GTCO, CalComp or Summa formats
have been selected.
 Button: Defines whether the cursor button (C) value is included in the ASCII output
report. This option is available only with GTCO formats. See the Format List, where
T = Tablet ID, M = Mode (Point, Stream), C = Cursor Button and P = Pen Up/Down.
 Line Feed: Defines whether the Line Feed character (hex 0A) is included in the ASCII
output report as a terminator. This option is available in GTCO, CalComp and
Summagraphics formats. See the Format List, where T = Tablet ID, M = Mode (Point,
Stream), C = Cursor and P = Pen Up/Down.
