Data bits
The number of data bits in each character transmitted or received.
8 data bits is by far the most common setting, only choose 7 data bits if it is required by the connected device.

7 | 7 |
8 | 8 |
- Data type: string select
- Default:
8 - Configuration

CLI: (cli)> config power rpc custom-definition <key> powerman serial-comms data-bits
Stop bits
The number of bits signifying the end of data.
1 stop bit is most commonly used with 8 data bits, other options should only be chosen when the communicating equipment is known to required specific settings.
| Option | Label |
|---|---|
1 | 1 |
2 | 2 |
1.5 | 1.5 |
- Data type: string select
- Default:
1 - Configuration

CLI: (cli)> config power rpc custom-definition <key> powerman serial-comms stop-bits
Parity
Parity checking is used to detect errors in the communication.
No parity checking is commonly used, only on specific use cases will another parity setting be required.
| Option | Label | Description |
|---|---|---|
none | None | |
even | Even | Even parity checking bits. The number of bits in each each transmission, including the parity bit, is even. |
odd | Odd | Odd parity checking bits. The number of bits in each each transmission, including the parity bit, is odd. |
