|
BaudRate | Gets or sets the serial baud rate. |
|
BreakState | Gets or sets the break signal state. |
|
BytesToRead | Gets the number of bytes of data in the receive buffer. |
|
BytesToWrite | Gets the number of bytes of data in the send buffer. |
|
CanRaiseEvents | Gets a value indicating whether the component can raise an event. (Inherited from Component.) |

CDHolding | Gets the state of the Carrier Detect line for the port. |
|
Container | Gets the IContainer that contains the Component. (Inherited from Component.) |
|
CtsHolding | Gets the state of the Clear-to-Send line. |
|
DataBits | Gets or sets the standard length of data bits per byte. |
|
DesignMode | Gets a value that indicates whether the Component is currently in design mode. (Inherited from Component.) |
|
DiscardNull | Gets or sets a value indicating whether null bytes are ignored when transmitted between the port and the receive buffer. |
|
DsrHolding | Gets the state of the Data Set Ready (DSR) signal. |
|
DtrEnable | Gets or sets a value that enables the Data Terminal Ready (DTR) signal during serial communication. |
|
Encoding | Gets or sets the byte encoding for pre- and post-transmission conversion of text. |
|
Events | Gets the list of event handlers that are attached to this Component. (Inherited from Component.) |

Handshake | Gets or sets the handshaking protocol for serial port transmission of data. |
|
IsOpen | Gets a value indicating the open or closed status of the SerialPort object. |
|
NewLine | Gets or sets the value used to interpret the end of a call to the ReadLine and WriteLine methods. |
|
Parity | Gets or sets the parity-checking protocol. |

|
ReadTimeout | Gets or sets the number of milliseconds before a time-out occurs when a read operation does not finish. |
|
ReceivedBytesThreshold | Gets or sets the number of bytes in the internal input buffer before a DataReceived event occurs. |
|
RtsEnable | Gets or sets a value indicating whether the Request to Send (RTS) signal is enabled during serial communication. |

Site | Gets or sets the ISite of the Component. (Inherited from Component.) |
|
StopBits | Gets or sets the standard number of stopbits per byte. |
|
WriteBufferSize | Gets or sets the size of the serial port output buffer. |
