Configure serial ports

Use the Serial Port Configuration page to establish a port profile for the serial port of the

Digi device. The Serial Port Configuration page includes the currently selected port

profile for the serial port, detailed configuration settings for the serial port, dependent on

the port profile selected, and links to Basic Serial Settings and Advanced Serial Settings.

About port profiles

Port profiles simplify serial port configuration by displaying only those items that are

relevant to the currently selected profile. If the Digi Device Setup Wizard was used to

initially configure the Digi device, the wizard prompted to select a port profile.

There are several port profile choices, but not all port profiles are supported in all

products. Support of port profiles varies by Digi product. If a profile listed in this

description is not available on the page, it is not supported in the Digi product.

If a port profile has already been selected, it is shown at the top of the screen. The profile

can be changed, or retained but individual settings adjusted.

Everything displayed on the Serial Port Configuration screen between Port Profile

Settings and the links to the Basic Serial Settings and Advanced Serial Settings

depends on the port profile selected.
