Raw Synchronous Configuration Parameters

The following parameters are sorted alphabetically by parameter name. Upper and lower case characters do not affect the sort sequence. Numbers occur before letters. Each parameter is followed by its default value, followed by an explanation of its effect.

Parameter

Default

Description

enable

1

Flag. Controls whether or not the local node will exchange data over the link. When YES (true), the LAPB software sets up the hardware to send flags. When NO (false), the hardware sends no flags, deactivates DTR and will send and receive no data.

encoding

NRZ

Controls the bits are encoded on the line. This must match the encoding used by the device at the other end of the link. Valid values include NRZ, NRZI, FM0 and FM1, but not all settings are supported by all hardware.

framesize

7

Maximum frame size in bytes, not including the flags or the CRC bytes.

speed

YES

Baud rate in bits per second. For an externally clocked link, enter 0. Enter 1200 for 1200 bps, 9600 for 9600 bps, and so on.
speed controls the frequency of the clock signal that is presented on the transmit clock output pin as defined by the electrical interface specification (RS-232, V.35, X.21, etc.). speed also controls whether or not it presents any signal on that pin (speed=0).
