Hi,
I am working with HyperTerminal in Windows and have been playing around with some of the settings. On one of the properties pages it has several settings:

Baud: 9600
Parity: No
Bits: 8
Stop Bits: 1
Flow Control: None

I know what everything on the list is except plain "bits." I am wondering what that stands for in terms of HyperTerminal. Is it just the size of each data burst?
