Note:
This configuration can only be changed while connected via USB or via scripting. After
the baud rate has been changed, it will not be possible to communicate with the Roborun
PC utility using the srial port until the rate is changed back to 115200. Slow bit rates may
result in data loss if more characters are sent than can be handled. The inverted mode is
only available on selected products.

this value to 0. The watchdog will only detect the loss of real-time commands that start
with “!†. All other traffic on the serial port will not refresh the watchdog timer. As
soon as a valid command is received, motor operation will resume at whichever speed
motors were running prior to the watchdog timeout.
