RS232 bus is a serial communication mode used in data transmission between PCs or
between a PC and a terminal. In RS232 serial protocol, a character is transmitted as a
frame of data. The frame consists of 1 start bit, 5-8 data bits, 1 check bit, and 1-2 stop
bits. Its format is as shown in the figure below. This series oscilloscope triggers when
