-The Serial 2 port is dedicated to communication with serial motor controllers. It has its own 2-pin JST-PH header on the TCB board. It can only transmit serial data, it can not read serial input. Only two baud rates can be selected, 19200 and 38400. The default is 38400 and unless you have a specific reason to change it you should leave it at the defaultThis rate is known to work well with the Dimension Engineering and Pololu dual motor controllers.+The Serial 2 port is dedicated to communication with serial motor controllers.

The default baud rate is 38400 and unless you have a specific reason to change it you should leave it at 38400Not all rates are compatible with all devices, but 38400 is known to work well with all. In general slower rates typically perform worst, but some controllers (such as the popular Sabertooth 2x5) are not compatible with the highest rate of 115200. Again, almost all users will be best served by leaving the rate at 38400
