4.4 Setting the RS-232 Serial Port Rate
(DF1 Rate)
The serial port rate, sometimes called baud rate or DF1 rate, is the
speed at which the computer and Serial Converter communicate
over RS-232. You can select a serial port rate of 9600, 19.2K, or
38.4K with the Serial Converter. The factory default serial port rate
is 9600.
Important: If you change the serial port rate in the Serial
Converter, you must set your software to use the
same serial port rate. The Serial Converter must be
reset or power cycled before baud rate changes take
effect.
To do this: See section
