WaveLAN/EC-S User’s Guide
If you are using the WaveLAN/EC-S device in specific
environments, you may wish to select an alternative protocol,
instead of the default value “passthrough”. If you decide do so, you
will also need to verify/modify the corresponding protocol settings,
which are described on
The delimiters are special characters that identify the
end of a data transmission. Once the WaveLAN/EC-S
receives any of the characters listed in for this
parameter, it will immediately start transmission.
Applications that use serial communications, often
“reserve” a character, similar to a “newline” command
or hit on the Enter key in human-interface
applications.
As an alternative or complement tot the proposed
three values, it will greatly improve communication
efficiency, if you could identify the type of delimiters
used by your host devices and their applications, and
enter the characters in this list (maximum is four
characters).
Delimiters can be specified as decimal or
hexadecimal numbers, separated by a space.
These three values are used mainly to control the
buffer size internal to the software. Changing of these
values is not recommended. The rxbd and txbd count
default to 8 and buffer count defaults to 12.
