This discussion reminds me of a question I posed a while ago, but got no
adequate responses:

Did anybody ever interface the Fastrak to a standard serial port (no ASO's
please) on any of the SGI's using the hardware handshaking cable and actually
get data from the unit with a baud rate higher than 9600? I had no luck on
my Indigo2 and finally had to settle for the 16BIT format and 16Hz sample
rates. I assume that with the right cable, I can exceed 9600 baud because the
modem in the other serial port runs at 19.2K or 38.4K.
