Details
Which escape sequence is enabled is defined by the ser.esctype property. This property is irrelevant when ser.esctype = 0 — PL_SER_ET_DISABLED or when the serial port is in the Wiegand or clock/data mode (ser.mode = 1 — PL_SER_MODE_WIEGAND or ser.mode = 2 — PL_SER_MODE_CLOCKDATA) — serial escape sequences are only recognized in the UART mode.
