Basic Serial Settings
After you select your port profile, the profile settings will appear. Click the
appropriate features for your environment. The following information is a
brief description of the fields within the Basic Serial Settings. The context
sensitive Help link in the upper right hand corner can provide additional
information.
• Description -Specifies an optional character string for the port which
can be used to identify the device connected to the port.
• Serial Port Settings include Baud Rate, Data Bits, Parity, Stop Bits,
and Flow Control -The basic serial port settings must match the
serial settings of the connected device. If you do not know these
settings consult the documentation that came with your serial
device. These serial settings may be documented as 9600 8N1,
which means that the device is using a baud rate of 9600 bits per
second, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
When using RealPort (COM port redirection) or RFC 2217 these settings
are supplied by applications running on the PC or server, and the default
values on your Digi device server do not need to be changed.
Advanced Serial Settings
The advanced serial settings allow you to enable Verbose connection
status messages, Force DCD, Binary mode for Telnet, RTS Toggle Pre-
delay, MS Post-delay, Inter-character timeout, Timeout, and Send socket
ID string. The following screen illustrates your options.
