The receivers datasheet is your best friend, and the vishay site has a
lot of additional info. Just pay attention to the gaps required to keep
the receivers VCO happy, and consider the receivers on/off delay when
calculating the allowed baudrate mismatch (this particular aspect *is*
rate dependent!).
