Bits per second Selects serial port transmission speed
The speed must be matched on the other side. Long or noisy lines may
require lower speeds.
Options: 9600, 19200, 57600, 115200.
Default is 115200.
Data Bits Data Bits
Items: 7,8
Default is 8
Parity A parity bit can be sent with the data bits to detect some transmission
errors.
Even: parity bit is 0 if the num of 1's in the data bits is even.
Odd: parity bit is 0 if num of 1's in the data bits is odd.
Mark: parity bit is always 1.
Space: Parity bit is always 0.
Mark and space parity do not allow for error detection. They can be
used as an additional data bit.
Options: None, Even, Odd, Mark, Space
Default is None
Stop Bits Stop bits indicate the end of a serial data packet. (A start bit indicates
the beginning). The standard setting is 1 stop bit. Communication with
slow devices may require more than 1 stop bit. Options: 1, 2.
Default is 1.
Flow Control Flow control can prevent data loss from buffer overflow. When sending
data, if the receiving buffers are full, a 'stop' signal can be sent to stop
the data flow. Once the buffers are empty, a 'start' signal can be sent to
restart the flow. Hardware flow control uses two wires to send
start/stop signals. Software flow control uses start/stop ASCII chars,
which slows down the data flow and can be problematic if binary data
is being sent. Options: None, Hardware RTS/CTS. Default is None.
Resolution 100x31 Enable or disable extended terminal resolution.
Default is Disabled.
Legacy OS Redirection Options: 80x25, 80x24. Default is 80x24.
