= Receive timeout Time in tens of ms to wait for characters to arrive at the serial port
before terminating the connection. Default = 10 (100 ms).
Maximum = 32,767.
X1*
= Interval between characters Time in tens of ms to wait between characters coming into the serial
port before terminating the connection. Default = 2 (20 ms).
Maximum = 32,767.
X4^
= Serial port number 01 = RS232/RS422 port on rear panel, 02 = front panel Config port
X5@
= Flow control H = hardware, S = software, N = none
X5#
= Data pacing Number of milliseconds between bytes (0000 – 1000). Default is 0.
X5%
= Command data (for web encoding) Data is directed to the specified port and must be encoded as follows
if it is not alphanumeric:
• Space (hex 20) should be encoded as %20 (hex 25 32 30)
• Plus sign (hex 2B) should be encoded as %2B (hex 25 32 42)
X5^
= Command length or delimiter Parameter to set either the length of the message to be received or a
delimiter value. Parameter is case-sensitive—it must be uppercase.
# is the byte count for L or a single ASCII character in decimal format for D.
#L = length of the command to be received: 0 through 32767.
The default is 0. Example: A 3-byte length = 3L.
#D = delimiter value: 0 through 00255. The default is the byte
count.
X6*
= Message length or delimiter Parameter to set either the length of the message to be received or a
delimiter value. Parameter is case-sensitive—it must be uppercase.
L = length in bytes. Min = 0, max = 32767. Default is 0L (0 bytes).
D = decimal value for ASCII character (delimiter). Min = 0,
max = 00255. Default is 00000L.
Value precedes parameter; for example, 3-byte length = 3L.
X6(
= Priority status for receive timeouts 0 = Use Send data string command parameters.
1 = Use configure receive timeout command parameters.
Default is 0.
