Can you run DMX at a slower baud rate and smaller universe?

Hi all, we're working on a project where we're trying to get an RS485 adapter working via UART on an Orange Pi. Unfortunately, the Orange Pi UARTs don't support 250kbps so we can't run a full universe of 512 channels. Realistically, we only need a maximum of 16 channels in the universe, so is it possible to hard code the baud rate at something much less than 250kbps and have it work?

here is the method that copies DMX data to outputBuffer: https://github.com/mcallegari/qlcplus/b ... et.cpp#L79
here is the method that sends outputBUffer to UART: https://github.com/mcallegari/qlcplus/b ... et.cpp#L93
m_outputBuffer is QByteArray http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/qbytearray.html
I hope you can figure out the rest
If not, ask again.
