Serial and USB tab
The Serial and USB tab contains settings that affect both Serial mode and USB Mode. USB and Serial
mode use the same communication protocols.
Enable Line Sharing
This setting allows multiple Sabertooth motor drivers to be used with the same serial port. Instead of
always being driven, the transmit lines back to the host processor are only driven while data is being
sent.
Baud Rate
This changes the baud rate for the serial modes. Options are 2400, 9600, 19200, 38400 and 115200
baud. The default is 9600. The baud rate setting of the Sabertooth must match the setting of the host
microcontroller.
Simplified Serial Addresses
Because Plain Text Serial does not have an address byte, this is used to select which motor driver is
being addressed. For example, a first Sabertooth could be set to 1 and 2, and a second Sabertooth set to
use addresses 3 and 4. In this configuration, a command of M1: 500 will command only the first
