* Most of the settings on the computer will be adjusted to match the settings on the unit.
|
When using the CPU attached port, the communication specifications are fixed (transmission speed: 19200bps, byte size: 8 bits, stop bit: 1 bit, parity: odd). Therefore, there are no settings. |
|
The connection is made directly to the port attached to the CPU, and the parameters at the time of connection are fixed, so there are no special items to be set on the unit side.
