Parity Property

Sets and returns the parity communications parameter.

Syntax

[Visual Basic]
object.Parity [ = value ]

[C#]
object.Parity [ = value ]

[C++]
object->Parity [ = value ]

Parameters

object

An object expression that evaluates to a PortController object.

value

A value of type ParityValue indicating the parity setting.

Return Value

A value of type ParityValue representing the parity setting.

Remarks

• Parity values are contained in the SciCom.PortController.ParityValue namespace
• Valid parity values are as follows:
  • Parity_None (Default)
  • Parity_Odd
  • Parity_Even
  • Parity_Mark
  • Parity_Space

Default

Parity_None

Errors

Attempting to set Parity to an invalid value will cause PortController to throw an "Invalid argument" exception.

Example

[Visual Basic]
'Set parity
myPortController.Parity = SciCom.PortController.ParityValue.Parity_None

'Get parity
Dim parity as SciCom.PortController.ParityValue
parity = myPortController.Parity


[C#]
// Set parity
myPortController.Parity = SciCom.PortController.ParityValue.Parity_None;

// Get parity
SciCom.PortController.ParityValue parity = myPortController.Parity;

[C++]
// Set parity
myPortController->Parity = SciCom::PortController::ParityValue::Parity_None;

// Get parity
SciCom::PortController::ParityValue parity = myPortController->Parity;
