Standard Comm

This item assigns the standard nine-pin serial port (sometimes called the SIO for serial
input/output) on the left side of the computer case as Port 1 (or disables the port). The
default setting is Port 1. The Disable setting conserves battery power.

Set the following communication parameters to meet the requirements of the serial device
connected to the serial port.

Baud Rate

Possible Baud Rate settings are 110, 150, 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, or 9600 bits per
second (bps). The default setting is 9600.

Data Bits

Possible Data Bits settings are 7 data bits or 8 data bits. The default setting is 8.

Stop Bits

Possible Stop Bits settings are 1 stop bit or 2 stop bits. The default setting is 1.

Parity

Possible settings are None, Odd, or Even parity. The default setting is None.

CTS (Clear to Send)

The RS-232C clear to send (CTS) signal can be forced on for application programs
requiring this signal. Possible settings are Normal and Force On. The default setting is
Normal.
