Communications format

Applicable receivers:  All receivers

Supported data rates are: 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200 baud. Any of these data rates can be used, however only 4800 baud or higher should be used. For example, a 20 Hz GGK string output requires the baud rate to be set to at least 19200. Only an 8-bit word format is supported, with Odd, Even, or No parity, and 1 stop bit. The default communications format for the receiver is 38400 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.

Changes to the serial format parameter settings for all serial ports are stored in EEPROM (Electrically-Erasable Read-Only Memory) and remain in effect across power cycles until you change the parameter settings.
