DB=[rate]                 

Where:        [rate] Value from 1 – 5 based on:

                       1 = 9600 (default setting)
                       2 = 19200
                       3 = 38400

Example: 

Read:        

DB        * Returns value for baud rate


Write:        

DB=3         * Sets baud rate to 38400 bps


Notes:

  • To write the value to the device’s flash memory, use the STORE command.  After a complete power cycle, the new baud rate will be written to memory.  
  • Note that until a power cycle is completed, the settings will not take effect.
  • The default RS-485 communication port settings are:
