The Status Screens
As shown in Figure 7.2, the Port Diagnostics Screen lists the following:
• Port: The Port Number.
• Name: The user-defined name for each port.
• Status: The connect status for each port. When the port is connected,
this column will list the number of the other port that is connected to this
port. Note that if this column contains an asterisk, this indicates that the
port has accessed command mode.
• Baud: The baud rate selected for each port.
• COM: The Data Bits, Parity, and Stop Bits selected for each port. For
example, "8N1" indicates Eight data bits, No parity, and One stop bit.
• HS: The handshaking (flow control) mode for each port.
• Mode: The user-selected Port Mode. This column will read Any (Any-
to-Any), Modem, Passive, or Buffer, depending on the configuration
selected for each port.
• BUF: Lists the amount of data (in bytes) currently stored in the buffer for
this port.
• CTS: The High/Low status of the CTS line at the RS232 interface.
