# Communication Ports Configuration

Asynchronous communications port parameters: COM port number, baud rate, flow control and data/stop/ parity bits.

Note that baud rates higher than 57600 should be used with caution - hardware or operating system could be too slow to manage the data flow which will cause the appearance of `CE_BREAK`, `CE_OVERRUN`, `CE_FRAME`, etc. errors in log file. The description of serial communication errors is beyond the scope of this manual.
