4.8 RS-232 SETUP
Use the RS-232 Setup menu to set the operating parameters of the serial I/O port. Settings include baud
rate, parity, data bits, line feed, network ID number and waiting period before a RTS time-out. Only
activate the RS-232 output if you intend to transmit serial data. This will avoid burdening the system with
unnecessary data transferals while it is performing flow computations.
NOTE: The RS-232 stop bit implementation is fixed. If you are using a communication program,
such as Windows 3.xx Terminal or Windows 95/98 HyperTerminal, that includes a field
for stop bits, select 1 stop bit.

4.8.1 BAUD RATE

The Baud Rate menu cell sets the asynchronous serial transmission data transfer rate of the RS-232
port. It provides a selection of standard baud rates up to 38,400 baud. The selected baud rate must
match the baud rate setting of the receiving external device. The factory-set baud rate is 9600
. This moves the cursor to RS-232 Setup.
