Baud Rate The unit and attached serial device, such as a modem, must
agree on a speed or baud rate to use for the serial connection.
Valid baud rates are 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600
(default), 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200, 230400, 460800, or

over when transmitted between computers. The default is
None.
Stop bits The stop bit follows the data and parity bits in serial
communication. It indicates the end of transmission.
Flow control Flow control manages data flow between devices in a network
to ensure it is processed efficiently. Too much data arriving
before a device is prepared to manage it causes lost or
retransmitted data.
