SERIAL_DATABITS N,D

DEFINES THE DATA BITS NUMBER FOR THE SERIAL LINK NUMBER N

  • Type: Command
  • Parameters: 2
  • Group: Input-Output

ACTION

The command SERIAL_DATABITS N,D defines the data bits number for the serial link number N.

D must be one of the following value : 5, 6, 7, 8.

The commands SERIAL_BAUDRATE, SERIAL_STOPBITS, SERIAL_DATABITS, SERIAL_PARITY configurate a serial link before using.

SYNTAX: SERIAL_DATABITS N,D

  • N = system object number (integer or real). Must be greater than 0 and less than or equal to the allowed maximum number of system objects.
  • D = number of bits (integer or real).

USE

  • The command SERIAL_DATABITS is used to defines the data bits number of a serial link.

ERROR

  • If number N is not a correct expression.
  • If number N is greater than 10.
  • If number N is less than 0.
  • If system object number N does not exist.
  • If system object number N is not of the type : SERIAL.
  • If value D is not a correct expression
  • If the value D is not one of the following value : 5, 6, 7, 8.
