Baudrate:
The rate of the communication with PC; there are 4 options of baudrate: 115200
(default), 57600, 38400 and 19200. The higher the baudrate, the faster is the communication speed,
but also the less reliable. In general, a higher baudrate can be used when the communication
distance is short; when the communication distance is long, choosing a lower baudrate would be
more reliable.
