Sigconfig Row Edit

Name

Select (...) and select the name of the sigconfig record from the Row Select dialog box.

The naming convention for a sigconfig record is: <character size><parity><baud rate>s<start bits> <stop bits>

For example: 7E1200s1

Baud Rate

Select the Baud Rate that matches the speed of the connected device.

Weak lines may require a lower baud rate to ensure data is not lost. Omnicomm uses the baud rate to perform timing calculations. Baud rate and other fields are used for dynamic configuration.

This corresponds to the <baud rate> variable in the signal configuration naming convention.

Parity

Select the type of parity used for the record. The choices are:

• EVEN

• ODD

• NONE. Parity is not used

  This corresponds to the <parity> variable in the signal configuration naming convention.

Start Bits

Enter the number of start bits (0, 1 or 2) used in byte framing.

This corresponds to the <start bits> variable in the signal configuration naming convention.

Stop Bits

Enter the number of stop bits (0, 1 or 2) used in byte framing.

This corresponds to the <stop bits> variable in the signal configuration naming convention.

Character Size

Enter the number of bits used in a byte or the character size. Valid entries are 7 or 8.

This corresponds to the <character size> variable in the signal configuration naming convention.
