Hello,

A couple weeks ago I got some help (from DJ Delorie) with respect to using termios to set up,read from and write to ttyS2. This was very helpful for me but it seems that cfsetispeed,cfsetospeed did not set the input and output baud rates to the speed required. This may be something I am overlooking or unaware of.

When I run my code, It executes without errors but when I check the ttyS2 settings (using the command line stty -a -F /dev/ttyS2) it says the baud rate is 4800 instead of 19200 that I tried setting it to. Here is the setup part of the code:

fd_ttyS2 = open_port();

    tcgetattr (fd_ttyS2,&options);

     i_speed = cfsetispeed(&options, B19200); //setting input baud
     o_speed = cfsetospeed(&options, B19200); //setting output baud
               cfmakeraw(&attr);

options.c_iflag &= ~( INPCK | IXON); // setting up input options
options.c_iflag |= IGNBRK;

options.c_lflag &= ~(ICANON | ECHO | ECHOE | ISIG);

options.c_oflag &= ~OPOST;

options.c_cc[VTIME] = 5; //wait half a second for data
set_attr = tcsetattr(fd_ttyS2, TCSANOW, &options); //set options now

if (i_speed < 0)
fputs("Unable to set input speed!\n", stderr);

    if (o_speed < 0)
      fputs("Unable to set output speed!\n", stderr);
    if (set_attr< 0)
      fputs("Attempt to set attributes failed!\n", stderr);

this is the output seen when I check the settings using the command line:

# stty -a -F /dev/ttyS2

speed 4800 baud; rows 0; columns 0;

intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^?; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>;

eol2 = <undef>; start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; rprnt = ^R; werase = ^W;

lnext = ^V; flush = ^O; min = 1; time = 5;

Any help with this would be appreciated.
