7.4 Serial
Set the Serial communication parameters as shown in Section 6.4.9 Remote Application. The serial com-
munication port allows the CPC3050 to communicate in RS-232 format with computers, terminals, PDAs,
or similar hosts.
These parameters should be set to match your host computer. Factory settings are: 57600 baud, 8 data
bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no echo.
