If you use artser.device from aminet you can do this
file: ArtSer37_6.lha
Its older than the 8N1.device, but it works quite well
for some people.

If you cannot set the device in your comms program, don't despair.
Rename your old serial device to devs:oldser.device or something
similar, and rename artser.device to devs:serial.device.
Then edit or zap this file, and replace the two occurences of the
string "artser" with "serial". If you already have used your comms
package since last reboot, you might have to reboot again before the
change will have any effect.

The last part meaning you'll have to find an editor that
handles binary and edit the file artser.device
