VT100 to use the ASCII character set. Select VT100+ to add color and function key support.
Select ANSI to use the extended ASCII character set. Select VT-UTF8 to use UTF8 encoding
to map Unicode characters into one or more bytes. The options are VT100, VT100+, VT-
UTF8, and ANSI.
Bits Per Second
This item sets the transmission speed for a serial port used in Console Redirection. Make
sure that the same speed is used in the host computer and the client computer. A lower
transmission speed may be required for long and busy lines. The options are 9600, 19200,
57600, and 115200 (bits per second).
Flow Control
Use this item to set the fl ow control for Console Redirection to prevent data loss caused by

A parity bit can be sent along with regular data bits to detect data transmission errors. Select
Even if the parity bit is set to 0, and the number of 1's in data bits is even. Select Odd if the
parity bit is set to 0, and the number of 1's in data bits is odd. Select None if you do not want
to send a parity bit with your data bits in transmission. Select Mark to add a mark as a parity
bit to be sent along with the data bits. Select Space to add a Space as a parity bit to be sent
with your data bits. The options are None, Even, Odd, Mark and Space.
