If anapplication requires only ASCII Hex characters 0 through 7F decimal (text, digits,and punctuation), select 7 data bits. For applications which require use of the fullASCII set, select 8 data bits per character.Default = 8.Stop Bits sets the stop bits at 1 or 2.Default = 1.Parity provides a means of checking character bit patterns for validity.Default = None.7 Data, 1 Stop, Parity Even7 Data, 1 Stop, Parity None7 Data, 1 Stop, Parity Odd7 Data, 2 Stop, Parity Odd7 Data, 2 Stop, Parity Even7 Data, 2 Stop Parity None* 8 Data, 1 Stop, Parity None8 Data, 1 Stop, Parity Even8 Data, 1 Stop, Parity Odd
