Hello world!!  I am currently working on an unmanned vehicle project at 
my university and we have been donated a laser rangefinder.  The unit
is from Lecia (I believe the spelling is correct) and it requires the 
serial port be configured for 19.2K.  I do not have a book on the use
of C in configuring the serial port so I need help.  Is their any ftp 
site that might have this code or does anyone out there have this kind of 
code?  I think that the code would have to know which UART is in the 
computer but is there anything generic around.  Or can anybody recommend 
a good book on this subject (I will probably buy the book even if I can 
find the source code elsewhere).

Help is appreciated as time is limited.

RCA
