Baud rate selection

In serial data communication, data is transmitted in the form of bits. These data bits go out one at a time along a single path, and in a specified order. The BPS (Bits Per Second) rate, or speed at which these bits are transmitted, can be selected using a combination of DIP- switch settings.

Note

In either RS-232Dor Current-Loop mode, accurate data transfer cannot be guaranteed at a baud rate exceeding

19,200 BPS.
