$BAUD

Top  Previous  Next

Action

Instruct the compiler to override the baud rate setting from the options menu.

 

Syntax

$BAUD = var

 

 

Remarks

Var

The baud rate that you want to use. Var must be a numeric constant.

 

When you want to use a crystal/baud rate that can't be selected from the options, you can use this compiler directive.

You must also use the $CRYSTAL directive.

These statements always work together.

 

In the generated report you can view which baud rate is actually generated.

But the baud rate is only shown when RS-232 statements are used like PRINT, INPUT etc.

Print "Hello"
