Specify number of bits that must match EOS character to complete read operation, or to assert EOI line
You can configure CompareBits
to be 7
or 8
.
If CompareBits
is 7
, the read
operation completes when a byte that matches the low seven bits of
the End-Of-String (EOS) character is received. The End Or Identify
(EOI) line is asserted when a byte that matches the low seven bits
of the EOS character is written. If CompareBits
is 8
,
the read operation completes when a byte that matches all eight bits
of the EOS character is received. The EOI line is asserted when a
byte that matches all eight bits of the EOS character is written.
You can specify the EOS character with the EOSCharCode
property.
You can specify when the EOS character is used (read operation, write
operation, or both) with the EOSMode
property.
