The first example shows a device named z1 configured for protocol mode EIA-232, slew rate limiting
is set to slow, termination is on, and the baud rate multiplier is 1
The second example shows device named z1 configured for protocol mode EIA-485fdx, slew rate
limiting is set to fast, termination is on, EIA-485 HDX TX Driver Control is set to auto with bit delay of 5
bits and the baud rate multiplier is 1
