  1. The module should respond with OK (if it doesn’t, click Send ASCII button a few times).
  1. Now you can send AT+UART=38400,0,0 followed by CR and LF to change 38400 for your desired baudrate.
  1. Now you changed the baudrate of our Bluetooth module. Remember to update the baudrate settings on your simpleRTK2B series receiver UART2 port to match the new settings on your Bluetooth module.
