Description
When switching between USB cable and USB telemetry, one needs to open the dialog, select device, select baudrate.
When a new device is connected - and no connection is established - switch to it.
Then if ttyACM\* is connected, or manually selected from droplist, suggest 115200 , if ttyUSB\* - select 57600.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the communication-port dialog, device enumeration, and baud-rate selection logic in the Qt application. Trace what happens when a device is connected while no connection exists, then verify the requested ttyACM* and ttyUSB* baud-rate suggestions and manual device selection. Done means the correct device and baud rate are selected or suggested in each described case.
