Data format table
A 1 7 1 (even) 2
B 1 7 1 (odd) 2
C 1 7 1 (even) 1
D 1 7 1 (odd) 1

Item
Format
Selecting a data length of 7 bits allows you to transmit alphanumerical characters and
symbols but inhibits you from transmitting punctuation characters and using 2-byte
codes to send dedicated characters and user pattern characters.
(8) Bit configuration
Formats A and B
Start b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 Parity Stop Stop
Formats C and D
Format E
Start b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 b7 Stop Stop
Start b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 b7 Stop
Format F
Formats G and H
Start b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 b7 Parity Stop
Order of code transmission: Transmission occurs beginning with the least significant
bit (b0).
(9) Error control
¡ Vertical parity error (detection on an individual character basis)
¡ Overrun error
¡ Framing error
