This parameter is used if bit 0 of the Type parameter is set. This value (0 to 12)
defines the number of termination characters used to define the end of received
message.
4.1.14 Rx Term Chars
ASCII Characters
This array of 12 characters defines the termination characters at the end of each
received message. Each character occupies one position in the array. The
number of characters to be used in the array is set in the RTermCnt parameter.
4.1.15 Rx Packet Length
0 to 200
This parameter is used if bit 3 is set in the Type parameter. The parameter sets
the length of data required to be received on the port before transferring the data
to the processor.
4.1.16 Rx Timeout
0 to 65535
This parameter is used if bit 1 is set in the Type parameter. The parameter sets
the number of milliseconds to wait after the first character is received on the port
before automatically sending the data to the processor.
4.1.17 Rx Delay
0 to 65535
This parameter is used if bit 2 is set in the Type parameter. The parameter sets
the number of milliseconds to wait between each character received on the port
before sending the data to the processor.
4.1.18 Swap Rx Data Bytes
Yes or No
This parameter is determines if the data received by the module will have the
byte order of the data swapped. If the parameter is set to No, no byte swapping
will occur. If the parameter is set to Yes, the odd byte will be swapped with the
even byte in each word of data received.
4.1.19 Tx Timeout
0 to 65535
This parameter specifies the timeout period to transmit a message out the port. A
message must be transmitted out the port within the specified timeout period.
Message transmission will be aborted if the timeout is exceeded.
