In
this example, the serial communications
data
rate is 19200 baud, and the
data
characteris-
tics are 8
data
bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. Handshaking is none.
Note
that
the
xon/xoff
console handshaking is normally handled
by
DOS,
but
hardware
handshaking may be preferred in some applications. The three parameters (B,
0,
S,
P)
may
be
placed
in
any order
on
the command line.
If
no parameters are declared
on
the command line,
then
a default value
of
9600 baud, 8
data
bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity
is
used.
Note
also
that
you
must
RESET
or
POWERUP
the
system with
the
new CONFIG.SYS
command line to have the driver take effect.
