Hi Jan, > Chuck, > > When I won't to run at a higher baud rate should I compile again?
That would probably be the easiest way. Technically it is not needed however. The serial settings come from the VALUE baud (check with e.g. \ I use 38400 instead of 9600 amforth 4.9 ATmega1284P 16000 kHz > baud u. 25 ok > ). The initial value is calculated at compile time but nothing prevents you from changing it at runtime. The two bytes from this value are written literally into the baudrate registers at startup (e.g. COLD), thus the name of the value "BAUD" is somewhat misleading. The datasheets have a rather big table for some cpu frequencies and baud rates. The compile time calculation is done in the file core/amforth-eeprom.inc An untested forth snippet is in lib/misc.frt The steps are 1) get the new settings (e.g. from datasheet) 2) store them into BAUD 3) reset the controller (COLD) 4) reconfigure your terminal If you write to the baud rate registers directly (its not rocket science, after all), you can even change the settings on the fly. You should use one command line for both bytes however with the order high-byte low-byte (again: datasheet).
