I agree thats what it says... but two stop bits means seven, not eight data
bits, generally, AND an 8 bit data stream with two stop bits generally
isn't used - thats ten bits long, not the usual 9.- it generally is seven
bits with two stop bits or eight bits with one stop bit, and a normal usage
of seven data bits uses parity - not always- but commonly.
AND - this works, the best argument for using it
In my batch file, I have several other ports available to be set up for
various things, and they are set for N81, meaning that didn't work for the
MP, and I had to specifically change it to E72 to get it to work.
