UART

uart.baud

Abbreviation

ua b

Access

get/set

Description

Sets the UART baud rate. If raw argument is NOT used, baud rate must be one of the following standard rates:

110, 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, 28800, 38400, 56000, 57600, 115200, 128000, 153600, 230400, 256000, 460800, 921600.

Some UART baud settings may be excluded by the hardware platform. See the topic UART Ranges for your platform in the platform hardware documentation.

If the optional raw parameter is supplied, then the rate may be any value.

After changing uart.baud, save and reboot to effect the change.

uart.stop

Abbreviation

ua s

Access

get/set

Description
