Parity Cn
The Parity
command specifies the parity, if any, to be transmitted and received
with each character of the selected serial port. The Port Select command (
Pn
) is used
to select the serial port regardless of addressing mode in use. If even or odd parity is
enabled the Serial488/4 will append a bit of the correct parity to each character
transmitted. However, the Serial 488/4 does not check parity on characters received.
The factory default setting as set by the Save Configuration command (
S0
) is
C0
,
parity disabled.
