15.19.7.5  Use of line feed character. 
Press N to turn on the appending of a line feed character after a carriage return character is 
exported. Press F to turn off appending a line feed character. Appending a line feed character may 
be required when exporting to a communication program depending on the program. 
 
15.19.7.6  Baud Rate. 
The baud rate is the speed at which data is transferred between serial devices. Type a new baud rate 
value if you know the standard values or press CONTROL with SPACE to cycle through the list of 
available values. 
 
15.19.7.7  Parity. 
Press N, E or O, for 
None, Even or Odd parity respectively. If you are unsure which setting is 
correct select none; this is usually preferred for short cables. 
 
15.19.7.8  Number of data bits. 
Press 7 or 8 for the number of data bits and press ENTER. Standard ASCII characters use only 7 
data bits while extended ASCII characters have 8 bits. 
 
15.19.7.9  Handshaking. 
The options are S for 
Software or H for Hardware. Handshaking determines how the BrailleNote 
QT and a host computer control the flow of data from each other. Handshaking is needed if the 
BrailleNote QT or host computer cannot keep up with the flow of data when a high baud rate is 
selected. BrailleNote QT supports both types of handshaking. You know when it is needed because 
large blocks of data are lost when exporting documents or importing files. Try the software option 
first if information about the host computer is limited. 
 
15.19.7.10 Transmit delay. 
This is the delay between each character when exporting a document. It should be zero when using 
a communications program on the host. Where a document is being exported directly into a word 
processor or other program, a value from 1 to 5 may be used to allow the word processor to keep 
up. Use the smallest value which does not cause characters to be lost. 
This is the end of the ASCII Translation Options list.
