5. Barcode command reference
Commands are sent with a prefix of
[0x16][0x4D][0x0D]
causing the command sequence to
take the form
[0x16][0x4D][0x0D]<Menu Command>
. The menu commands are six characters
long with a parameter (if required).
To send a command to modify a configuration parameter
Send the six-character
command concluded by a dot ‘.’ or an exclamation mark ‘!’. The dot stores
the setting permanently and the exclamation mark keeps it temporarily until power is removed from
the device.
For example,
[0x16][0x4D][0x0D]AISKBL1.
sets the keyboard localisation to United States
when the device is operating as a USB keyboard.
To query the current settings (including a temporary one)
Send the six-character
command with a ‘?’ instead of the parameter and the ATR110 will return the
command with the current setting.
For example,
[0x16][0x4D][0x0D] AISINF?
queries the device interface and returns the
current value.
To query the stored value
Send the six-
character command with a ’^’ instead of the parameter and the ATR110 will return the
command with the stored setting.
For example,
[0x16][0x4D][0x0D] AISINF^
returns the current illumination mode.
To list parameter options
Send the six-
character command with a ‘*’ instead of the parameter and the ATR110 will return the
command with the parameter options.
