I 've switched barix at 2400 bps and now MagicRDS shows "communication error" (it was at 9600 bps before).
(Back to 9600 and works again)
Strange !
Just for your information:
The baudrate desired must be set on both devices, encoder and Barix. Correct method is following (expecting the communication now works on 9600):
1) Open a terminal, type SPEED=2400 and confirm by enter. Now the RDS encoder listens on 2400. Close the terminal.
2) Change the Barix baudrate to 2400 using its http interface.
3) Open a terminal, type *SPEED and confirm by enter.
All these steps must be made within a minute, otherwise the encoder will return back to 9600.
