Abstract

A system for setting baud rate and communication protocol in a remote device. In this invention, the remote device receives samples of signals from a host device in a buffer. The remote device then detects a baud rate of said signals from the samples. A protocol being used by the host device to communicate is also determined from the samples. The remote device is then set to communicate using the determined protocol at the detected baud rate.
