Appendix C — Setup Parameters (Fingerprint)
EasyCoder PD42 Printer User’s Guide 87
Serial Communication Setup
The serial communication parameters control the
communication between the printer and the connected computer
or other devices on the standard serial port, referred to as
"uart1:".
For the serial communication channel ("uart1:"), the following
parameters can be set. Make sure they match the setup of the
connected device or vice versa. If the setup of the printer and the
setup of the host do not match, the response from the printer to
host will be garbled.
Baud Rate
The baud rate is the transmission speed in bits per second. There
are 10 options:
• 300
• 600
• 1200
• 2400
• 4800
• 9600 (default)
• 19200
• 38400
• 57600
• 115200
Character Length
The character length specifies the number of bits that will define
a character. Eight bits are recommended, since that option allows
more special characters and characters that are used exclusively in
foreign languages. Refer to the
Intermec Fingerprint Programmer’s
Reference Manual (P/N 937-005-xxx) for more information.
There are two options:
• 7 (Characters ASCII 000 to 127 decimal)
• 8 (Characters ASCII 000 to 255 decimal) (default)
