This has no effect on parity error control. It is an internal developmental debugging control which forces the <keyword>high water mark</keyword> to software flow control level of 5 bytes below 50% level instead the usual 75% level, irrespective of whether software flow control is enabled or not. </p> </conbody></concept>
