Revision history [back]

During the initialization, the driver will try to auto detect the baud rate of the LIDAR(which stays the same as the last time it runs.) And as RS232 can do no more than 19200, may be you need to check with a RS422 connection.

Another thing is if you want your lidar to work at real-time, you definite need 500K baud rate.
