NOTE: The firmware loader increases the baud rate to 115,200. The firmware loader may not return the serial port to its earlier baud rate, making communications with the switcher impossible. If you cannot communicate with the switcher after a firmware upload, change the baud rate on your computer and, if necessary, see Selecting the Rear Panel Remote Port Protocol and Baud Rate on page 42.
