an RS-232 serial device, the settings in the Serial tab (see Section 6.4 Configuring Serial
Port Settings) should be configured to correspond with the serial device the wafer reader
will be communicating with. For example:
Baud Rate = 115200
Data Bits = 8
Stop Bits = 1
Parity = None
Handshake = Xon/Xoff
Mode = Text
NOTE If using the Send Message Native Mode command, the selected Mode must be Native. For more
information on the Send Message command, refer to Section 7: Native Mode Commands.
