Baud rate indicates the speed at which the data is transmitted between two
serial devices. Try the fastest first. If you get data loss or dropout at
the highest speed drop the baud rate down until you get solid data transfer
between the two units. If there is an auto setting use that. Then both units
will negotiate a reliable setting each time the unit is turned on.

I can change my baud rate from between 1200 baud and 115200 baud on NMEA
data, what or why would different settings be chosen over another setting?
My default baud is 9600. I do not have a DGPS receiver installed (yet) on
the GPS unit. Is this a worth while option? I do have a "pinning"
setting
on the GPS, is there a Baud setting that best compliments "pinning"?
