13.4.3 Data/Stop
The data size and stop bits of the equipment connected to this port. These
settings determine the number of bits transmitted per ASCII character. The data
size and stop bits you specify depend on the configuration of your equipment.
For Port 1, the data size must be set to 8, with 1 or 2 stop bits. Settings of 7 data
bits/1 stop bit and 7 data bits/2 stop bits are available for Port 2.
NOTE: When connecting a computer running a terminal emulation program, you
should set your equipment to NO PARITY.
13.4.4 Handshaking
This setting controls handshaking. You can select XON/XOFF or Disabled for this
setting.
D
Disabled (No Handshaking)
If handshaking is disabled, the SSBM transmits and receives data via the serial
port, ignoring all inputs from handshaking lines.
D
XON/XOFF
If handshaking is enabled, the SSBM uses special characters (XON and XOFF) to
handshake with the host terminal. The XON character is defined to be ASCII value
11 hex, and the XOFF character is defined to be ASCII value 13 hex. Upon
reception of an XOFF command, the SSBM halts transmission until an XON
command is received. In the same way, if the terminal receives an XOFF
command, the SSBM expects the terminal to halt transmission until the SSBM
sends an XON command.
13.4.5 Save
Set to YES to save any changes to configuration settings upon exit from the Setup
screen. Set to NO if you do not want to save any changes.
13.4.6 Default Settings
The following are the default configuration settings for the serial communications
ports:
Port 1 Remote Monitor 300 baud 8/1 Handshaking Disabled
Port 2 Terminal 9600 baud 8/1 Handshaking Disabled
Each communications port on the SSBM operates in one of five modes which you
select when configuring the port using the Setup Port screen.
