Default Baud Rate (Sw1, Sw2, Sw3)
Setup Switches one through three select the
default
baud rate for
all MDS Ports. The default baud rate must match the rate your
control device will use when communicating with the MDS. If
the control device will communicate via modem, select a default
baud rate that is compatible with the modem.
After the MDS has been installed, the /P command can be used to
select individual baud rates for each port.
