As shown in Figure 5.5 and Figure 5.6, the Serial Parameters Menus allow you
to define the following parameters:
Note: When the baud rate, data bits, parity or stop bits settings are
changed via the console port, newly selected parameters will not be
applied until the user exits and then re-enters
command mode.
Baud Rate: The Baud Rate for the serial Console Port.
(Default = 9600 bps.)
Data: The Data bits setting for the serial Console Port.
(Default = 8 Bits.)
Parity: The parity setting for the serial Console Port. (Default = None.)
Stop: The stop bits setting for the serial Console Port. (Default = 1 Bit.)
Serial Port Mode: Sets up the RPS Console Port for use with either a
local PC ("Console") or an external modem ("Modem"). Note that when
the Serial Port Mode is set to "Modem" the modem initialization string
will be sent every 15 minutes. (Default = Console.)
Modem Initialization String: Defines a command string (up to 32
characters long) which can be sent out the serial Console Port to initialize
an external modem. If the Serial Port Mode is set to "Console", the
modem initialization string will not be sent. For more information
on initialization commands, refer to the user’s guide for your modem.
(Default = ATE0M0Q1&C1&D2S0=1)
Note: The Modem Initialization String cannot begin with a
forward slash (/) or backslash (\) character, and cannot include
non-printable characters or quotation marks.
