PalmerEng4:
I'd like to put the baud change code into the setup of my actual code though, and I'm unsure how to do so with different library's to those above.
just as it is, get rid of the commented lines as they are useless and confusing
EDIT - misread what you said.
you basically need to open up a Serial port set up at 9600 bauds, send the $PMTK251,57600*2C command to your device, then terminate the connexion and reopen at 57600
