(1) Set Baud Rate
Description:
This is the communication rate between the radio's data port and the
instrument to which it is connected.
l
This setting is independent from the Baud Rate for the other radios in the
network.
l
Set the baud rate to the highest level supported by the device to which it is
connected.
l
With a poor radio link, however, this may actually result in slower data
communications.
FreeWave Recommends
: With a
Baud Rate
setting of 38,400 or
higher, use the Flow Control lines.
Note
: The Setup port baud rate always defaults to 19,200 no matter
how the data port baud rate is set.
