Table 5. Serial Interface Configuration Settings
Parameter Description
Serial Port Settings
Interface Type
Bridge serial interface type.
• RS232 (default)
• RS422
• RS485
This setting must match the setting of the Bridge’s Interface Selection
Shunts (see page 13). Otherwise, this mismatch prevents data from being
exchanged.
Enable ASLIP When checked, enables the ASLIP Protocol. See page 95 for details.
Default is unchecked. (Disabled)
Baud Rate Bridge baud rate.
300 – 921600 bps (9600 default) (Current AirborneDirect™ Serial
hardware design limits speed to 460800)
Data Bits
Number of data bits used by the Bridge.
• 7
• 8 (default)
Parity
Parity, if any, used by the Bridge.
• None (default)
• Even
• Odd
Flow Control
Flow control method, if any, used by the Bridge.
• none (default)
• hardware (RTS/CTS)
• software (XON/XOFF)
Stop Bit Sets the number of stop bits to 1 or 2. Default is 1.
Serial Input Buffer Size
(1 – 1460)
Sets the maximum input buffer size that triggers data transfer to the LAN.
The serial input buffer will be transferred to the LAN if no data is received
for more than 10ms. The buffer range is 1 – 1460 bytes.
Default is 1460.
Serial Assert Asserts the xon or xoff value on the receive port of the Bridge's serial
interface as if the Bridge had received an xon or xoff from the serial
host.
This parameter is valid only when software flow control is enabled.
Default is xon.
Connect Mode
Sets the behavior of the Connect LED to toggle on to indicate TCP or
PASS mode.
When set to TCP, the Module will turn on this LED if the Module accepts a TCP
connection on the Telnet Port or the TCP listen port to Tunneling. It
will also turn on this LED if the Module establishes a TCP connection to the
Primary LAN Server IP Address or Secondary LAN Server IP
Address target server.
When set to PASS, the Module will turn on this LED if a data bridge is active. If the
data bridge becomes inactive (because of the escape sequence or lost of
connection on the wireless interface), the Module will turn off this LED.
Default is tcp.
