Communication Parameters

Communication Parameters
Before a data connection is established, the communication parameters—data speed
(baud rate or bps), parity, data bits, stop bits—of the terminal or PC must be the same
as the data device that is calling or being called. The PC communication parameters
are set with MS-DOS MODE commands.
To set the PC Communication parameters
Enter MODE
LPTx:=COMx
(x = 1, 2, 3, or 4)
...or MODE COMx:
baud rate, parity, data
bits, stop bits
Communication parameter options are shown in
6
Use this parameter, if you connect to your printer via
an RPCI to DIU-DS data call connection.
Notes
Toshiba recommends entering these MODE
command lines into the DOS AUTOEXEC.BAT
file, in most cases.
The COM port number and communication
parameters must be set to allow proper operation
of data calls in most communications, desktop, and
word processor software.
