Parameter
Description
Swap Mode
Determines how the data transmitted to the serial port is arranged. The swapping is done before the device sends output data. Available options are:
  • No Change
     (default)
  • Word Swap
     (ABCD = CDAB)
  • Byte Swap
     (ABCD = BADC)
  • Word and Byte Swap
     (ABCD = DCBA)
Termination Mode
Determines the usage of the termination delimiters in the data. Available options are:
  • Ignore End Delimiter
     (default). The end delimiter is ignored and treated as ordinary data
  • Exclude
    . The end delimiter is not included in the send data
  • Include
    . The end delimiter is searched and is always the last byte of the data
Tip:
 The termination delimiter is only applied when Ox.ASCII.TXDataLength = 0.
Termination Delimiter 1
Specifies the channel's first termination delimiter. The termination delimiter is used to signal the end of the data. Valid values are:
  • 7 bit – $00 to $7F
  • 8 bit – $00 to $FF
Termination Delimiter 2
Specifies the channel's second termination delimiter. Valid values are:
  • 7 bit – $00 to $7F, $FF
  • 8 bit – $00 to $FF
Tip:
 To use only the first termination delimiter to signal the end of the data, set the
Termination Delimiter 2
 to
$FF
.
