Description

Terminal Type

VT100

VT100+
VT_UTF8
ANSI

VT100: ASCII char set.

VT100+: Extends VT100 to support color, function keys,
etc.

VT-UTF8: Uses UTF8 encoding to map Unicode chars
onto 1 or more bytes

ANSI: Extended ASCII char set.

Bits per second

9600
19200

38400
57600
115200

Selects serial port transmission speed. The speed must
be matched on the other side. Long or noisy lines may

require lower speeds

Data Bits

Data Bits

Parity

None

Even
Odd

Mark
Space

A parity bit can be sent with the data bits to detect

some transmission errors. Even: parity bit is 0 if the
num of 1's in the data bits is even. Odd: parity bit is 0 if

num of 1's 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.

Stop Bits

1

2

Stop Bits indicate the end of a serial data packet. (A
Start bit indicates the beginning). The standard setting

is 1 stop bit. Communication with slow devices may
require more than 1 stop bit.

Flow Control

None

Hardware RTS/CTS

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 re-
start the flow. Hardware flow control uses two wires to

send start/stop signals

With this mode enabled only text will be sent. This is to
capture terminal data.
