Communications

MC01S can only use one serial peripheral, SCIA port, the serial parameters that fit the serial protocol requirements can be edited in this menu:

Communications menu

• Baudrate: This field specifies how fast data is sent over a serial line.

• Length: Defines the number of data bits for each character: 4 to 8 bits.

• Stop: Number of stop bits sent at the end of each character: 1, 1.5 or 2.

• Parity: Method to detect errors during transmission. When parity is used with a serial port, an extra data bit will be sent with each data character.

  The bits of each character (including parity bit) will be even or odd according to parity mode (odd, even or disabled).

• Use address mode: 9-bit data framing uses the bit typically associated with parity error detection to identify address messages. Sent serial data that does not have the address bit set will be ignored (unless the device had previously identified an address message associated with it).

  This option can be disabled or enabled.
