Parity
A parity check bit is the most significant bit of each ASCII coded character. If you select
ODD parity, the parity bit will have a value of 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an
odd number of 1 bits are contained in the coded character.
If you select EVEN parity, the parity bit will have a value, 0 or 1, to ensure that and even
number of 1 bits are contained in the coded character.
If you select MARK parity, the parity bit will always be 1.
If you select SPACE parity, the parity bit will always be 0.
Select the parity type according to the host device requirements.
