Port Settings

The Port Settings allow you to set Default or Override Settings for the serial communication and how

to deal with incoming hardware handshaking events.

 To open „Port Settings‟, open Boost.LAN Manager and Double Click on the Brainboxes COM

Port Entry.

 Then Click on the „Port Settings‟ tab.

 All options can be selected from the Dropdown Menus. In addition, you can enter a non-

standard value into the Baud rate

NB – Once the desired settings have been achieved, you must click OK to activate them. At anytime

click the „Restore Default‟ button to return to the original setup.

Default / Override Settings

 The “Default Settings” will be set if an application does not specify the serial settings when it

opens the COM Port.

o This is sometimes the case with old Legacy applications and you will need to choose

these settings to match the communications that you wish to use.

o The majority of Applications will specify what Serial Settings they wish to use. In this

case, it will not matter what the Default settings are, as the Port will be opened with

the Application‟s Settings.

 When the „Override‟ box is checked next to the Default Setting, the Port will communicate at

this setting whether an application has requested it or not.

o For example, this will enable you to force baud rates that your application does not

allow you to select. This can be useful for interfacing to equipment which uses higher

baud rates or unusual baud rates, which your application does not support.

o In a case where you want to use hardware handshaking, but your application is not

capable, you can select CTS Always True – Hardware state ignored and choose to

Override it.
