Elecraft K2 and N1MM logger serial com. (stopbit)

pc5m, Carel
Hi,
 
Fired up my K2 Elecraft (#4927) with N1MM Logger program and found out that
it will only work with "1" stopbit (remaining parameters are confirmed).
This is in contrast to both the n1mm manual (use default Kenwood parameters
of 2 stopbits) and  the K2 KPA100 manual saying that 2 stop bits should also
work.
 
Also verified this behaviour with "Hyperterminal" only 4800 baud, 8
databits, no parity, no hardware control and ONE stopbit is functioning.
 
Don't know if more people have been seeing this, if yes maybe the manual(s)
can make a note of it, if no it is just my PC hardware and this email can be
discarded !

Carel,

I won't be able to check it out here until later today, but I find it
strange to hear that it is not working for you with 2 stop bits.  The rules
for asynchronous data transmission is for the stop bit(s) to be at a mark
level, and any idle time is also held at a mark level - so any idle time
between characters should look just like an extended stop bit.  On the basis
of that thinking, it should  work with any number of stop bits - from one to
infinity.
