M400 baud rate for RS-232

I've been having trouble reading the correct data from a data logger I'm constructing. It gets data, including the headers of $82, $81, $80, but after that the data seems to get corrupted. I saw in the data sheet that it said "baud rate 19200 (actual 19231)". I tried this but it didn't seem to work; my question is, is the baud rate from the ECU in this case 19200 as stated by ECU Manager, or 19231 as stated by the CRC32 data set sheet?

Hi cmcrae,

The requested baud rate of 19200 becomes 19231 actual because of processor clock speed.
That's an error of only 0.16%. You should get away with 0.5% before coming across issues.
