PB - Power-up Baud Rate
Compatibility: All drives
See also:
BR, PR, TD commands
Sets or requests the power-up baud rate for serial communications. When executed, this command sets the baud
rate and immediately saves it to non-volatile memory. At power-up the drive defaults to 9600 baud. If an Applied
Motion software application is not detected after 1 second and the drive is configured for host operation the drive
will set the baud rate according to the value stored in the Power-up Baud Rate non-volatile parameter. A host
system can change the baud rate at any time.
NOTE: Setting the baud rate takes effect immediately.
