D.2 Baud Rate

For the USB, the maximal baud rate is 921,600. The board responds well
without a need to pre-define the used b/r.
For serial communication, the required b/r should be pre-defined by the
user via the Settings utility (section 3.3). The available baud rates are
between 19,200 and 115,200. The current b/r used by the board for the
serial communication is shown for a while on the LED display upon card
reset, prefixed by ‘Sb’ (=Serial baud rate). Refer also to sections 3.3.1.2
& 3.3.2.1.2.

D.3 General RS232 Terminal

You may talk with the card either by your own application or by a general
RS232 terminal. One simple one called Termite is available for free at

D.4 Serial Communication & PC Power On/Off

After PC power on or off the serial communication (RS232/RS485) is
likely to drop. A card reset is needed in this case.
