Allows setting the baud rate for the serial interface. The baud rate is the speed serial data is transferred between the host computer and the printer. The options for RS232 and RS422 are 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200 baud. Note: If using RS232 and the selected baud rate is greter than 19200, data loss may occur. To correct this, it may be necessary to lower the baud rate or use RS422. An increase in the Buffer Size in K parameter from the default (1 Kbyte) may be required to improve performance. The factory default is 9600. This menu allows the length of the serial data word to be set. The data word length can be set to 7 or 8 bits and must match the corresponding data bits setting in the host computer. The factory default is 8. This menu allows the quantity of stop bits in the serial word to be set. either 1 or 2 stop bits may be selected, but the setting must match the corresponding stop bit setting in the host computer. This menu screen allows the parity to be set, but the setting must match that of the host computer. The options are: Odd, Even, Mark, Sense, or None. The factory default is None. Determines the modem status. • Disable - factory default. Is not active. • Enable - is active. Determines if the modem's NVM stored configuration will be used or if the printer will send a modem initialization string. • Enable - factory default. The printer will only send a ATZ0 command to the modem on power-up. Resets the modem configuration to 0. • Disable - the printer sends a generic modem initialization string on power-up. NOTE: This generic initialization string does not work for all modem types. If the initialization string does not work, the modem must be manually configured, the setting must be stored in configuration 0, and the printer "Modem NVM menu must be enabled. Determines if the modem's status will be displayed on the printer's operator panel. • Enable - factory default. Will display status commands. • Disable - does not display status commands. Determines the modem's communication method. • Tone - factory default. Uses the tone dialing method. • Pulse - uses the pulse dialing method. GL408-412e Operator Manual 4-87 PN: 9001163A
