Press the Baud softkey to select the desired baud rate from 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600 or 115200. The default is 115200. Make sure that the baud rate matches that of the computer.
Press the Parity softkey, select the parity from None, Odd or Even. The default is None.
It seems the device resets the baud rate each time you turn it off or on, the correct value is shown in the menu but no connection can be made until the baud rate is reapplied
