Card Setup Card Setup Clock Modes The OMG-COMM8-PCI employs a unique clocking option that allows the end user to select from divide by 4 and divide by 1 clocking modes. This mode is selected at J1. To select the Baud rates commonly associated with COM: ports (i.e. 2400, 4800, 9600, 19.2, … 115.2K Bps) place the jumper in the divide by 4 mode (silk-screen DIV4). Figure 1 - Clocking Mode ‘Divide By 4’ To select the maximum data rate (460.8K bps) place the jumper in the divide by 1 (

Appendix D - Asynchronous Communications Appendix D - Asynchronous Communications Serial data communications implies that individual bits of a character are transmitted consecutively to a receiver that assembles the bits back into a character. Data rate, error checking, handshaking, and character framing (start/stop bits) are pre-defined and must correspond at both the transmitting and receiving ends. Asynchronous communications is the standard means of serial data communication for PC
