Terminal Type
|
VT100/VT100+/VT-UTF8/ANSI
|
VT100+
|
Select the emulation for the terminal:
-
VT100: ASCII character set.
-
VT100+: Extends VT100 to support color, function keys,
etc.
-
VT-UTF8: Uses UTF8 encoding to map Unicode characters
onto one or more bytes.
-
ANSI: Extended ASCII character set.
|
|
Bits per Second
|
9600
19200
38400
57600
115200
|
9600
|
Select the serial port transmission speed. The speed must be
matched on the connecting serial device. Long or noisy lines
require lower speeds.
|
|
Data Bits
|
7/8
|
8
|
Select the data bits.
|
|
Parity
|
None/Even/Odd/Mark/Space
|
None
|
A parity bit can be sent with the data bits to detect some
transmission errors.
-
None: No parity bits are sent.
-
Even: Parity bit is 0 if the number of 1s in the data
bits is even.
-
Odd: Parity bit is 0 if the number of 1s 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.
|
|
Stop Bits
|
1/2
|
1
|
Stop bits indicate the end of a serial data packet. (A start
bit indicates the beginning of a serial data packet.) The
standard setting is 1 stop bit. Communication with slow devices
may require more than 1 stop bit.
|
|
Flow Control
|
None, Hardware RTS/CTS, Software Xon/Xoff
|
None
|
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.
