Defining the Emulation Features of EM9560.BIN
The TRAKKER Antares terminal is a programmable terminal that runs C/C++
applications. With the
EM9560.BIN
application, you can use the TRAKKER Antares
terminal as a remote input/output terminal in which all prompts and commands are
controlled by the host computer. With this application, the TRAKKER Antares
terminal is similar to a 95XX terminal in Data Entry mode with no application running.
Note: For the 95XX terminals, Data Entry mode with no application running is also
referred to as an unprogrammed state or 95XX dumb terminal mode.
The
EM9560.BIN
application allows you to use the TRAKKER Antares terminal to
emulate these specific 95XX features:
•
An Enter key without any preceding data transmits an empty data packet.
•
The TRAKKER Antares terminal display is similar to but not identical to the 9560
buffered display mode.
•
All function keys transmit the corresponding characters
F1
,
F2
, and so on.
•
When Code 128 is configured for Standard Code 128 symbology and you scan a
UCC/EAN label, the terminal will discard the Function 1 characters. Although this
does not meet the industry standard for Code 128, it does emulate the 95XX
terminal, which was manufactured before the current standard was established.
Other Code 128 configurations work as defined in Chapter 8, “Configuration
Command Reference.”
•
The High Beep reader command is supported. When a backslash character (\) is
sent to the terminal through any serial or network port, the terminal sounds a high
beep.
•
The Low Beep reader command is supported. When the BEL character is sent to
the terminal through any serial or network port, the terminal sounds a low beep.
•
When control codes (ANSI escape sequences) are sent to the terminal through any
serial or network port, the terminal formats the display. For a list of control codes,
see “Using Display Control Codes” later in this appendix.
•
Preamble A, Preamble B, and Postamble C are supported through the AA, AB, and
AC configuration commands or through the reader co., ++, and +%. For
help, see “Setting Preambles and Postambles” later in this appendix.
•
Full ASCII mode for Code 39 can be configured through the CB or RB
configuration commands or through the reader co$ and -$. For help, see
“Full ASCII Mode for Code 39” later in this appendix.
•
The Exit Configuration Mode, Save Settings configuration command ($-) is not
required, but bar code labels with this command scan correctly.
