Serial port

Represents a serial communication channel, configurable according to the protocol used by the controller, to create request/response-type or event-type protocols

DataType
Description
Port name
PortName
Number of the COM serial port to use for the Bridging service on which the modem is connected
Baudrate
Baudrate
Serial communication speed (Baud Rate). The communication speed value should be set to match that of the device with which you intend to communicate
Data size
DataSize
Number of bytes required by the communication protocol concerned
Parity
Parity
Parity type required by the communication protocol concerned
Stop bits
StopBits
Number of Stop bits required by the communication protocol concerned
Flow control
FlowControl
Data flow control type for the communication type used. In particular, it makes it possible to adapt the communication according to the needs required at low level by the serial port of the connected device. By default, the driver sets None, that is, no flow control; however, depending on the device, it may be necessary to select a type of Flow Control (for example, in the event of an error message with code 1). The possible selections are: None: No flow control. The control is not required by the protocol. Hardware: The Flow control is managed by the serial line electrical signals (for example, RTS, CTS, and so on). XON/XOFF: the data flow control is XON/XOFF
Timeout
Timeout
