port settings:
Bits per second = 115200 (115.2Kbps)
Data bits = 8
Stop bits = 1
Parity = None
Flow control = None
Tip: For a USB connection, you can determine the COM
port by choosing Control Panel > System > Hardware >
Device Manager, and locating the "Dominion EMX Serial
Console" under the Ports group.
