Data/Parity/Stop
The number of
Data
bits, type of
Parity
and number of
Stop
bits selected
define the serial port parameters at which the serial server will operate. These
parameters must be configured to match the parameters set on the serial
device connected to the serial server's serial port.
Data Bits
controls the number of bits of data in each character. Options
include 5, 6, 7 or 8 data bits.
Parity
controls the error checking mode. Options are No Parity, Odd, Even,
Mark or Space.
Stop Bits
controls the number of bits to indicate the end of a character.
Options include 1, 1.5 and 2. (1.5 bits is only valid when 5 data bits is
selected, which is rare. The 2 stop bits setting is only valid when 6, 7 or 8
data bits is selected.)
Default Gateway
The
Default Gateway
address sets the default route to remote networks,
enabling users to access the serial server from outside the local network.
Delimiter 1, Delimiter 2 and Delimiter Removal
Delimiters and Delimiter Removal enable you to control how characters
received on a serial port are sent across the network. Delimiters are ASCII
characters specified by the user when configuring the serial server. The serial
server takes action when it recognises the specified character(s) on its serial
port.
Delimiter 1
Delimiter 1
is a
start delimiter.
The range of ASCII values is 0 through 255.
Delimiter 2
Delimiter 2
is an
end delimiter
. The range of ASCII values is 0 through 255.
