Re: Configuration of the RGA200 communication baud rate

[Eric Norum via Tech-talk <tech-talk at aps.anl.gov>]

My quick google search suggests that it’s necessary to write a program to do this.

For python it recommends:

import serial

ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyS0', 28800)

print(ser.baudrate)

I tried this on Debian and it ran with no complaints.

Hi Eric,

I have an RHEL 9 system.  How do I set an arbitrary baud rate using termios2 from the shell?  When I use stty I get an error:

[epics@13idd ~]$ stty -F /dev/ttyUSB0 28800

stty: invalid argument ‘28800’

Try 'stty --help' for more information.

Thanks,

Mark
