12.5.3 Baud rate, Data format
The baud rate for all interface modules is programmed on leaving the factory to
9600 baud. In order to avoid unnecessary problems when networking several
devices together the baud rate should not be altered; rather the computer or
printer should be set to match. If this is for some reason not possible you can,
in the Baud rate function, enter the values 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 baud or
57.6, 115.2 kbaud (paying attention not to exceed the maximum baud rate for
the interface module). The baud rate setting is saved in the EEPROM on the in -
terface module and thus applies when used with any other ALMEMO device.

12.5.4 Language
The user can choose between German / English / French as the interface lan-
guage in which the functions are labeled in the display; (other languages are
also available as options). The soft-keys are international; these cannot be
changed. If German is not set as the language outputs via the interface will ap-
pear in English. To select the language go to the Language function (see 10.5)
