To Save the Configuration in a User-Definable Location: Choose

then a two digit value ranging from 90 to 99 on the AccuSet Menu. You will

Baud: The rate, in bits/second, at which characters are transmitted across the RS-
232C serial interface. Choices are: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200 or 38400.

Data Bits: Data bits represent the actual data being sent from one device to
another. Both devices must be set for the same number of data bits. Choices are:
Seven (7) or Eight (8).

Stop Bits: Each character has one or two stop bits, which tell the receiving device
that a character is complete. The number of stop bits usually does not matter.
Setting for two stop bits instead of one may overcome a mismatch in parity or data
bits. Choices are: One (1) or Two (2).

Parity: One bit can be allocated for parity (parity is a simple error-detecting
scheme). Both devices (sending and receiving) must be set for the same parity –
