ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

    Alt-Pin
    10-pin RJ-45 plugs may be difficult to obtain in the retail market; therefore,
    the device driver software incorporates a feature called Alt-Pin, which swaps 
    the logical functions of DSR (Data Set Ready) with DCD (Data Carrier Detect). 
    When the Alt-Pin box is checked, DCD becomes available on pin 1 of an 8-pin 
    RJ-45 connector (equivalent to pin 2 of a 10-pin connector). 

    Force Baud Rate
    With the Force Baud Rate feature the device driver software forces the
    baud rate of a COM port to a fixed value. This enables older serial communication 
    applications to use baud rates above the applications configuration limit 
    (e.g. 115200). If Force Baud Rate is enabled, the driver replaces the applications 
    baud rate with the forced baud rate value.
