6.6.3 Serial Communications Parameters (INIt > CoMM > SER >C.PAR)
Select C.PAR. Then, select individual parameters to configure the serial communications.
Navigate to the correct setting. Settings include the following:

bUS.F – Specify RS232 or RS485 serial communications

bAUd – Baud rate (transmission rate)

PRty – Parity (used for transmission error checking)

dAtA – Number of bits per data point

StoP – Number of stop bits between data points
Select the desired setting.
Select the Bus Format (bUS.F) parameter.
Navigate to the desired setting. Settings include the following:
