6.2.1 Async Data Port Configuration

The Async Data Port Configuration menu allows you to configure the
data channel for either asynchronous or synchronous operation,
depending on the type of device connected to the data port. If the port is
configured for synchronous operation, refer to Sync Data Port Configu-
ration.

When the port is configured for asynchronous operation, options such
as speed, flow control, and pacing may need to be changed. The
following Data Port Configuration menu displays the default parameters
for async mode of operation:

Data Port Configuration

1 - Async/Sync: Async
2 - Speed: 57600
3 - Word Length: 8
4 - Stop Bits: 1
5 - Parity: None
6 - Flow Control: CTS
7 - Enq/Ack Flow Control: Off
8 - Echo: Off
9 - Pacing: Off
10 - EIA Pass Through: Off
11 - Pass Xon: Off
S - Store All Configurations
M - Main Menu
P - Previous Menu

Selection : _

The Async/Sync option configures the port for either asynchronous or
synchronous operation. When an asynchronous device such as a PC or
a host computer is connected to the port, the data port needs to be
configured for asynchronous operation. The default for this option is
Async.

The Speed option needs to be set to match the speed of the async
device. When the data port is connected to an asynchronous device,
the baud rate can range from 300 bps to 57.6K bps. The default port
speed is 57.6K bps.
