to send” before communicating. This
setting is normally checked.

Network Port
This port connects the master and slave
computers of the Security Escort
System. If this system has only a
single computer, this setting should be
set to none.
Modem Port
This port typically connects to the
modem for remote access and pager dial
out.
If set in the Remote Setup Screen, use
this port without a modem for direct
connection to a computer that is always
on line.
System Serial 1
This is a general-purpose serial port.
Its function is set up in the Remote
Setup Screen.
System Serial 2
This is a general-purpose serial port.
Its function is set up in the Remote
Setup Screen.
COM
The actual physical Comm port over
which these communications are carried.
Baud
The speed at which characters are
transmitted on this serial port. This
setting must match the baud rate of the
device connected at the other end of
this serial connection. This setting
should always be at the highest speed
both connected devices have in common.
Modem connections are typically much
more efficient, if the baud rate is set
significantly faster than the modems
rated speed (for a 28.8 modem, set the
baud rate to 57600 or 115200). The
default setting is 9600 baud.
CR/LF
Appends carriage return and line feed
characters at the end of each string
transmitted (default). Only functions
with the system serial ports (ignored
on the network and modem ports).
CR Only
Appends a carriage return character at
the end of each string transmitted.
Only functions with the system serial
ports (ignored on the network and modem
ports).
