Selecting Baud Rates and Message Types
Baud rates &
Message types
When selecting your baud rate and message types, use the following
formula to calculate the bits/sec for each message and sum the results to
determine the baud rate for your required data throughput.
Message output rate * Message length (bytes) * bits in byte =
Bits/second
(1 character = 1 byte, 8 bits = 1 byte, use 10 bits/byte to account for
overhead).
For information on message output rates refer to the
