Baud Rate
Allows selection of the desired baud rate for the remote Communications Link. The available Baud
rates are shown. The control also incorporates a unique compression utility that allows the effective
baud rate to be doubled. For example, for links configured to run at 9600 baud, the effective rate will
be 19.2K Baud.
Note: For Serial Messaging communication speeds from 1200 Baud to 115200 Baud are available.
See Serial Messaging in the Program Code section for more information.
Parity
Enter the desired parity for the remote Communications Link.
Data Bits
Enter the number of data bits the remote link is using. This value is 8 for the link software included
with the control.
Time Out Delay
Enter the amount of time the control will wait prior to display communications error should it not be
able to establish a link with a remote device.
Transmit Delay
Enter the amount of delay the control will insert between each character that is transmitted over the
serial port. Some communications links require a small delay to avoid missing characters that have
been sent to them. This parameter should normally be set to zero.
The following parameters allow the user to create a custom communication link on the control by
entering the ASCII code equivalent to the character or symbol used by the host computer for dialog
start.
For example: The ASCII Decimal Code 33 is equal to the ! symbol
Rewind
This setup parameter is only enabled when Link File Dump Mode has been enable. Enter the ASCII
code equivalent to the character or symbol used by the host computer for tape rewind at the host tape
drive system. Enter the number zero to eliminate the rewind command.
Dialog Start
Enter the ASCII code equivalent to the character or symbol used by the host computer for dialog
start.
Dialog Done
Enter the ASCII code equivalent to the character or symbol used by the host computer for dialog
done.
Dialog Prompt
Enter the ASCII code equivalent to the character or symbol used by the host computer for dialog
rompt.
Dialog Pause
Enter the ASCII code equivalent to the character or symbol used by the host computer for dialog
pause.
Dialog Acknowledge
Enter the ASCII code equivalent to the character or symbol used by the host computer for dialog
acknowledge.
