PortMaster Configuration Guide

To set the port speed, use the following command—entered on one line:

Command> set S0|all speed [1|2|3] Speed

You can set speed to any of the following standard modem speed settings:

Parity Checking

Parity checking is off by default.

Setting Databits

You can set the number of databits per byte for a single asynchronous port or all
asynchronous ports. The default (8) is the most common.

You can set the databits for all the asynchronous ports simultaneously by using the set
all databits
command.

T

o set databits, use the following command:

Command> set S0|all databits 5|6|7|8

Setting Flow Control

The PortMaster can use either software or hardware flow control to communicate with
the attached device to start and stop the flow of data. Because hardware flow control is
more reliable, Lucent recommends that you set software flow control to off and
hardware flow control to on.

To set software flow control to off, use the following command:

Command> set S0|all xon/xoff off

To set hardware flow control to on, use the following command:

Command> set S0|all rts/cts on
