I saw 7 bit mark and 7 even back in my old Field Service days in the 80s...

Start with just 7 bits no parity. Try both one and two stop bits. Then move on from there.

7 bits no parity is something I   ve never seen.   I would start with 8 bits no parity, one stop bit unless it   s 110 bps.   7 bits with parity, that does come up on a few occasions.   But while I   ve seen 8 and 5 and even 6 bit serial comms used, I can   t think of any 7 bits in the wild.
