7.4 Technical details for ipEther232.PPP
reat emphasis was placed on compatability during device design.

• The ARP cache can hold 20 entries. If the PPP side requires more ARP

• CCP (Compression Control Protocol) is not supported.
UART
The UART supports transmission speeds between 2400 baud and 115200 baud.
Higher baud rates might result in data loss, if data is transmitted continuously.
The device uses 8 Data bits and "no parity".

• ipEther232.PPP principally uses the "hardware handshake".
• Should problems arise, we recommend testing the connection with Linux
