SPORT_SET_STATE

Run-Time Function: Sets the baud rate, parity, data bits setting, and stop bits setting of the communications port.

Module: USE DFLIB

Syntax

iresult = SPORT_SET_STATE (port [, baud] [, parity] [, dbits] [, sbits])

port
(Input) Integer. The port number.


baud
(Optional; input) Integer. The baud rate of the port.


parity
(Optional; input) Integer. The parity setting of the port (0-4 = no, odd, even, mark, space).


dbits
(Optional; input) Integer. The data bits for the port.


sbits
(Optional; input) Integer. The stop bits for the port (0, 1, 2 = 1, 1.5, 2).

Results:

The result is of type INTEGER(4). The result is zero if successful; otherwise, a Win32 error value.

The following restrictions apply:


Note: This routine must not be used when any I/O is pending. Since a read operation is always pending after any I/O has been started, you must first call SPORT_CANCEL_IO before port parameters can be changed.
