3.1.9 Parity
N ONE , O DD , E VEN
Parity is a simple error checking algorithm used in serial communication. This
parameter specifies the type of parity checking to use.
All devices communicating through this port must use the same parity setting.
3.1.10 Data Bits
7 or 8
This parameter sets the number of data bits for each word used by the protocol.
All devices communicating through this port must use the same number of data
bits.
3.1.11 Stop Bits
1 or 2
Stop bits signal the end of a character in the data stream. For most applications,
use one stop bit. For slower devices that require more time to re-synchronize,
use two stop bits.
All devices communicating through this port must use the same number of stop
bits.
3.1.12 RTS On
0 to 65535 milliseconds
This parameter sets the number of milliseconds to delay after Ready To Send
(RTS) is asserted before data will be transmitted.
3.1.13 RTS Off
0 to 65535 milliseconds
This parameter sets the number of milliseconds to delay after the last byte of
data is sent before the RTS modem signal will be set low.
