General Settings

The General Settings page covers the core communication and timing parameters that affect the whole system.

Serial Output

Setting	Description
Baud Rate	Speed for the primary serial port (GPIO43/44). Must match the device receiving commands (WCB, etc.). Common values: 9600, 19200, 57600, 115200.
Delimiter	The character used inside serial string templates to split a single string into multiple lines. Enter the character directly — e.g. : — and Amidala stores its ASCII value internally. When a serial string is sent, each delimiter is replaced with the configured end-of-line sequence.
End of Line	The line terminator appended after each serial string (and after each delimiter split). Options: LF (\n), CR (\r), or CRLF (\r\n). Match the expectation of the receiving device.

Timing

Setting	Description
Controller Timeout	How long (ms) without a signal from the XBee controller before the drive is stopped and the controller is considered disconnected.
Drive Inactivity Timeout	How long (ms) the drive can sit at zero throttle before the motor outputs are disabled (to prevent heat buildup on idle motor controllers).

Other

Setting	Description
Volume	Default startup volume level.
Speed Mode	Default speed mode at startup (slow or fast).
