SETUP SERIAL STRING MODE
This menu lets the user select the serial ports´ mode of operation. The possible modes
depend on the selected output string. If a time string is selected it can be sent
automatically "Per Second", "Per Minute" or only "On Request" (sending an ASCII
"?" to the clock). If the capture string is selected it can be sent automatically when a
trigger event occurs ("String Auto") or only "On Request" (sending an ASCII "?" to
the clock). If capture message "On Request" is selected it is the user´s responsibility to
read out the capture buffer by sending an ASCII "?" to COMx or by the binary
protocol via COM0 in order to avoid a buffer-overrun and the loss of new trigger
events.
