Terminal Type
Specifies the type of terminal connected to the line:
Serial Interface
Specifies the type of line that is being used with the Terminal Server. Select
either EIA-232, EIA-422, or EIA-485.
Speed
Specifies the baud rate of the line; keep in mind that speed is affected by
the length of the cable.
Bits
Specifies the number of bits in a byte. The default is
Parity
Specifies if you are using
force a parity type, you can specify
Stop Bits
Specifies the number of stop bits that follow a byte.
Flow Control
Defines whether the data flow is handled by the software (

EIA-485 applications require local echo to be enabled in order to monitor
the loopback data to determine that line contention has occurred. If your
application cannot handle loopback data, echo suppression should be
The default is echo suppression
Monitor DSR
Specifies whether the RS-232 signal DSR (data set ready) should be
monitored. This is used with modems or any device that sends a DSR
signal. When it is monitored and the Terminal Server detects a DSR signal,
the line service is started. Default is
DSR
started.
Monitor DCD
Specifies whether the RS-232 signal DCD (Data Carrier Detect) should be
monitored. This is used with modems or any other device that sends a DCD
signal. When it is monitored and the Terminal Server detects a DCD signal,
the line service is started. Default is
DSR
started.
