9MS100 ManualBaud RateBaud Rate (bits per second) refers to the speed of the data throughthe RS232 port. If the data error rate is unacceptably high, settingthe baud rate lower should help.Default is “9600 Baud”.RS232ACK/NAKData characters that are sent from the receiver to the sender inorder to “acknowlege” or “not acknowlege” the receipt of the datawithout error. Rarely used these days.Default is “No”.HandshakingHandshaking is the mechanism that controls the speed of data flowso that a slower receiver of data is not overwhelmed by a fastersender of data. Selections are: “Ignore”, “RTS (request to send)Enabled at Power Up”, and “RTS Enabled in Communication”.Default is “Ignore”Data BitNumber of bits per byte that are dedicated to data (minus start/stopbits).Default (and the current universal standard) is “8 Data Bits”.ParityA technique used to detect data transmission errors by adding anextra bit to each character. This scheme has been supplanted inmodern communication devices by “error correction”.Default (and the current universal standard) is “No Parity”.BCC CharacterBlock Check Character. An error checking character added for dataintegrity.Default is “No”.
