Remarks

This property determines what value (byte) defines the end of a line for the ReadLine and WriteLine methods. By default the end-of-line value is a line feed character (\n in C#, Constants.vbLf in Visual Basic). You would change this to a different value if the particular serial device you're working with uses a different value for the same purpose.
