(2-Channel V2.xx.xx C2 only) The Part ID configuration settings are unique for each tool. The
Barcode Serial Interface can be configured as a unique serial port (COM1 or COM2) for each
tool, or such that a single serial port, and therefore each Part ID, is shared between the tools.
When the tools share a common Part ID source and serial port, the "Number of Characters" must
be identical for both tools.

abled, and any rundowns which have not previously
been printed are sent to the parallel port printer inter-
face.
