serial.databits
Attribute Character width (data bits) for the RS-232 port.
Usage
bits = serial.databits
serial.databits = bits
bits
• A new data width setting takes effect when the command to change it is processed.
Remarks
• The user should allow ample time for the command to be processed before
attempting to communicate with the instrument again. It is recommended that the
data width be set from the GPIB interface or from the front panel.
• The data bits value is stored in non-volatile memory. The

Sets data width to 8:
Example
serial.databits = 8
serial.flowcontrol
Attribute Flow control for the RS-232 port.
Usage
flow = serial.flowcontrol
