Parameter Settings Description
Terminal Type VT100, VT100+, VT-UTF8, ANSI Emulation: ANSI: Extended ASCII character set. VT100: ASCII character set. VT100+: Extends VT100 to support color, function keys, and so on. VT-UTF8: Uses UTF8 encoding to map Unicode characters onto one or more bytes.
Bits per second 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200 Selects serial port transmission speed. The speed must be matched on the other side. Long or noisy lines may require lower speeds.
Data Bits 7, 8 Data Bits.
Parity None, Even, Odd, Mark, Space A parity bit can be sent with the data bits to detect some transmission errors. Even: parity bit is 0 if the number of 1s in the data bits is even. Odd: parity bit is 0 if number of 1s in the data bits is odd. Mark: parity bit is always 1. Space: Parity bit is always 0.
Stop Bits 1, 2 Stop bits indicate the end of a serial data packet (a start bit indicates the beginning). The standard setting is one stop bit. Communication with slow devices may require more than one stop bit.
Flow Control None, Hardware RTS/CTS Flow control can prevent data loss from buffer overflow. When sending data, if the receiving buffers are full, a stop signal can be sent to stop the data flow. Once the buffers are empty, a start signal can be sent to restart the flow. Hardware flow control uses two wires to send start/stop.
VT-UTF8 Combo Key Support Disabled, Enabled Enable VT-UTF8 Combination Key Support for ANSI/VT100 terminals.
Recorder Mode Disabled, Enabled With this mode enabled, only text is sent. This is to capture terminal data.
Resolution 100x31 Disabled, Enabled Enables or disables extended terminal resolution.
Putty KeyPad VT100, LINUX, XTERMR6, SCO, ESCN, VT400 Select FunctionKey and KeyPad on Putty.
