established by the RTS/CTS Delay parameter (see RTS/CTS Delay on
page 4-14)
.

Values: Forced True, Forced False, Internal
Default: Forced True

DSR

Data Set Ready (DSR) can be set to “Forced True,” “Forced False,” or
“Internal.” The “Internal” option sets DSR “On” if the port is enabled and
“Off” if the port is disabled.

Values: Forced True, Forced False, Internal
Default: Forced True

DCD

The Data Carrier Detect (DCD) parameter can be set to “Forced True,”
“Forced False,” or “Internal.” If set to “Internal,” DCD is “On” when network
carrier is being received from the remote end, and is “Off” when network
carrier is not being received from the far end.

Values: Forced True, Forced False, Internal
Default: Forced True

RTS

The Request to Send (RTS) parameter determines the source from which the
unit reads the RTS signal status. If set to “Normal,” the unit gets RTS from
the DTE on the Serial interface. If set to “Forced True,” RTS is always
perceived as “On.”

Values: Normal, Forced True
Default: Normal

RTS/CTS Delay

The Request to Send/Clear to Send (RTS/CTS) parameter determines how
long the unit waits before it changes the level of CTS to match RTS when the
CTS parameter is set to “Internal.”

Values: Normal (~30 ms delay), Long (~100 ms delay)
Default: Normal

DTR Alarm Control

Lets you set DTR Alarm Control parameters.

Values: Enable, Disable
Default: Disable

DTR Alarm Status

Lets you view the current DTR Alarm status.

Format

Selects the port’s operating mode.

Values: Sync, Async
Default: Sync

Flow Control

Selects the type of flow control to be used if the port is asynchronous.

Values: None, Xon/Xoff, RTS/CTS
Default: None

Character Size

Selects the number of bits required to make up one asynchronous character.

Values: Five, Six, Seven, Eight
Default: Eight
