Default Borgelt B50 and PowerFLARM Question

Hi,

A customer has asked me to help him connect his PowerFLARM Core to his
Borgelt B50 and Naviter Oudie.

He had ordered a K6 Mux - which would definitely work, but I wonder if a
simpler and less expensive cable solution would also work well. I have the
required Goddard PBvB50 cable in stock.

The B50 manual states that it communicates at 4800 baud by default and can
be configured using a jumper to communicate at 9600 baud. The PowerFLARM
and Oudie can also be configured to communicate at 9600 baud.

The big question and the reason for this post is that I'm concerned as to
whether all the GPS and FLARM and B50 vario data can get through every
update at 9600 baud. Most FLARM systems use 19200 baud or higher to make
sure all the data gets through. Does anyone know whether or not this
approach would work?

The goal is to minimize the customer's cost while providing a reliable
system.

Best Regards,

Paul Remde
