Disable: Do not communicate with the device through the serial port.
RS485(PC): Communicates with the device through RS485 serial port.
Master Unit: When RS485 is used as the function of "Master unit", the device
will act as a master unit, and it can be connected to RS485 fingerprint & card
reader.
The rate at which the data is communicated with PC, there are 5 options of baud
rate: 115200 (default), 57600, 38400, 19200 and 9600.
The higher is the baud rate, the faster is the communication speed, but also the
less reliable.
Hence, a higher baud rate can be used when the communication distance is
short; when the communication distance is long, choosing a lower baud rate
would be more reliable.
