The Baud Rate screen displays only if a WeatherLink data logger is installed in the 
console. The console uses a serial, USB, or Ethernet port to communicate with a 
computer. If you are connecting the console directly to your computer via USB or 
Ethernet connection, leave the setting at 19200, the highest rate for the port.

Note: The baud rate setting on your console must match the baud rate setting in the software 

on your computer. If you are using WeatherLink for Vantage Vue, refer to WeatherLink 
Help for instructions on setting the serial port baud rate on your computer.
