Hardware
The hardware section defines port type and is used for setting up the hardware configuration
of the modem, terminal, printer or PC session. This section is always used. The parameters
are as follows:
Option Description
Speed This field sets the baud rate of the port and can be set to the following
values: 50, 75, 110, 150, 300, 600, 1200, 1800, 2400, 4800, 9600,
19200, 38400, 57600, 115200. The default setting is 9600.
Parity This field sets the parity of the port to even, odd, mark, space or none.
The default parity is None.
Bit This sets the number of data bits that are used by the port from 5-8. The
default is 8.
Stop This defines how many stop bits the port uses to either 1, 1.5, 2. The
default is 1.
Break This field determines how the IOLAN+ reacts to the break key being
pressed on the terminal. There are four possible settings:
Disabled The IOLAN+ ignores the break key completely and it is not
passed through to the host. This is the default setting.
Local The IOLAN+ deals with the break locally. If the user is in a
session the break key has the same effect as a hot key (that is, it returns
the user to the Connections Menu.)
Remote When a break key is pressed the IOLAN+ translates this into a
telnet break signal which it sends to the host machine.
Brkintr This mode operates in the same manner as the remote setting
except that instead of generating a break signal the IOLAN+ generates
an interrupt signal and sends it to the host.
Monitor DSR This field specifies whether the RS-232 signal DSR (data set ready)
should be monitored. This is used with modems. Default is No.
Monitor DCD This field specifies whether the RS-232 signal
DCD (data carrier detect) should be monitored.This is used with
modems. Default is No.
