NOTE: The firmware loader increases the baud rate to 115,200. The firmware
loader may not return the serial port to its earlier baud rate, making communications
with the switcher impossible. If you cannot communicate with the switcher after a
firmware upload, change the baud rate on your computer and, if desired, change the
baud rate using the Set serial port parameters SIS command on page 109.
