Single Cable RS-232 RTS CTS Selection
Specifies how RTS and CTS are used to control the data flow. RTS is con-
trolled by the Scanner and can be continuously held high/low, or can be
asserted during label transmission. The scanner looks at CTS, as the con-
figuration values state, to determine when to send label data.
Choices are:
• Option 0 = RTS is held in low state and CTS is ignored
• Option 1 = RTS is held in high state and CTS is ignored
• Option 2 = Assert RTS and wait for CTS to be asserted
• Option 3 = Assert RTS and ignore CTS
• Option 4 = RTS held low, wait for CTS to be asserted
• Option 5 = RTS held high, wait for CTS to be asserted
To set this feature:
1. Scan the SWITCH barcode.
2. Scan a barcode below or on the following pages representing the
desired option. You’ll need to cover any unused barcodes, as well
as facing pages to ensure that the scanner reads only the barcode
you intend to scan.
3. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH
barcode.
RTS CTS SELECTION = OPTION 0
RTS CTS SELECTION = OPTION 1
