Protocol allows the user to select between different data transmissions. If Appolo 3.1 is selected,
then after linking is OK, a special protocol for a label printer is sent to the programmed COM port.
With each other selection, the serial data transmission is sent after each cycle. The basic set-
tings are Port, Baud rate, Data bits, Stop bits, Parity, and Protocol.
(2-Channel V2.xx.xx C2 only) The Standard, Standard2, and CT01 3964R serial communications
protocols can be configured as a unique serial port (COM1 or COM2) for each tool, or such that
a single serial port is shared between the tools. The transmitted "Tool Number" is a two-digit
ASCII field as programmed in Advanced / System Settings "Station Number". When the option
Advanced / System Settings: "Same for both tools" is checked, the Tool Number field is hard-
coded as "01" or "02" as appropriate.
The following table details the transmission data for Standard:
