NPort 5600-8-DT/DTL Series NPort CE Driver Manager for Windows CE
To configure the settings for a particular COM Port, select the row of the desired port, and then modify the
setting in the “Settings” panel, as shown below.
Tx Mode
“Hi-Performance” is the default for Tx mode. After the driver sends data to the NPort server, the driver
immediately issues a “Tx Empty” response to the program. Under “Classical mode,” the driver will not send the
“Tx Empty” response until after confirmation is received from the NPort server’s serial port. This causes lower
throughput. Classical mode is recommended if you want to ensure that all data is sent out before further
processing.
FIFO
If FIFO is disabled, the NPort server will transmit one byte each time the Tx FIFO becomes empty, and an Rx
interrupt will be generated for each incoming byte. This will result in a faster response and lower throughput.
