How does this translate into > megabits per second ? Unfortunately, the 'data rate' part of the parameters mentioned by older versions of fx is historical garbage. It's not used by any current controllers, and has no relationship to the actual data rate... I believe this has been removed from current versions since it is now meaningless. Dave Higgen
