4.4.1 Setting the Serial Port Rate
The serial port rate, sometimes called baud rate or DF1 rate, is the
speed at which the computer and serial converter communicate.
You can select a serial port rate of 9600, 19.2K, or 38.4K with the
serial converter. The factory default serial port rate is 9600.
Important: If you change the serial port rate in the serial converter,
you must set your software to use the same serial port
rate.
To set the serial port rate
Step 1. Set DF1 Rate Cfg (03) to the desired rate.
Step 2. Reset the serial converter. Refer to section 4.4.3.
Step 3. Set the serial port rate in your software to match the new
serial port rate in the serial converter.
