Configuring the Serial Port

The Serial Port Configuration page displays information about the serial
port on your ES1A, including its description, its profile (operating mode) and
serial settings (baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits). You will have to
configure these parameters to set up your system for the type of operation
required and to match the parameters of the serial device to which the ES1A
is connected.

To open the Serial Port Configuration page, under the Configuration menu
click Serial Ports. When you first access this page a list of ports, their
description, profile and serial configuration appears. (If the ES1A has not yet
been configured for the first time the Profile column may indicate
<Unassigned>.)

To access detailed settings for the ES1A serial port, click Port 1. The Serial
Port Configuration
page that appears includes three sections with
hyperlinked menu bars.

operation, a description of that profile and a hyperlink to Change Profile…

Click the Change Profile… menu bar to open the Select Port Profile page.
