 The *settings* parameter sets the speed, number of data bits, number of stop bits, and parity. You determine the value for *settings* by adding the speed, data bits, stop bits, and parity values as listed in the following table. For example, to set 1200 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity, you would add 94 + 3072 + 16384 + 0 = 19550\. You would then use 19550 as the value of the *setup* parameter.
