following settings:
• ‘SEriAL’ refers to the mode of operation. This can be
‘ConStAnt’, ‘SingLE’ or ‘nOnE’. You press the left
or right navigation key to cycle through the options.
• ‘SEr rAtE’ refers to the rate at which RS232 data is
generated when in constant mode. It shows a value (in
seconds) in the second axis window. You press the arrow
button next to the value to change the serial rate. You can
select values in the range 0.1 – 60.0 in 0.1s increments.
The maximum serial rate is limited by the baud rate, as
shown in the following table.
• ‘bd rAtE’ relates to the baud rate of the RS232
communications. The second axis window shows the
current value. You press the left or right navigation key to
select a value.
• ‘PAritY’ refers to the parity mode of the RS232
