Choosing a Communications Protocol
Once the terminal is connected to a host computer or other serial device, you are ready to
configure the serial port parameters on the two devices. The terminal uses a
communications protocol and
XMODEM
or
YMODEM
to handle data communications
through the serial port.
You can configure a different communications protocol for each COM port. The
terminal’s built-in file operations use
XMODEM
or
YMODEM
for file transfer.
Communications protocols determine exactly how data is transmitted between the
terminal and the connected device. Each protocol has parameters you can set, such as
baud rate and parity. Both the terminal and the connected device must use the same
protocol and parameter settings to communicate properly.
The terminal can communicate in these four protocols:
• Binary
• Configurable
• Master Polling
• Polling Mode D
