Timeout Use an integer from 1 to 127 to enter the time (s) for which the Display waits for the
response from the External Device.
Retry In case of no response from the External Device, use an integer from 0 to 255 to enter how
many times the Display retransmits the command.
Wait To Send
Use an integer from 0 to 255 to enter standby time (ms) for the Display from receiving
packets to transmitting next commands.
When the default value check box is selected, the Wait To Send value automatically
changes in the formula below by changing each value for Speed/Data Length/Parity/Stop
Bit.
Value for the parity setting is shown below.
No Parity = 0
Parity Even = 1
Parity Odd = 1
