Screen 19: Baud Rate (Optional)
The Baud Rate screen displays only if a WeatherLink data logger is installed in the console.
The console uses a serial, USB, or Ethernet port to communicate with a computer. If you are
connecting the console directly to your computer via USB or Ethernet connection, leave the
setting at 19200, the highest rate for the port.
Note: The baud rate setting on your console must match the baud rate setting in the software on
your computer. If you are using WeatherLink for Vantage Vue, refer to WeatherLink Help for
instructions on setting the serial port baud rate on your computer.
