NOTE: The firmware loader increases the baud rate to 115,200. The
firmware loader may not return the serial port to its earlier baud rate, making
communications with the switcher impossible. If you cannot communicate with
the switcher after a firmware upload, change the baud rate on your computer and,
if necessary, change the baud rate using the
Set serial port parameters SIS
command on page 34.
