Response Timeout
Default:
12 ms
Options: 0 to 65,000 ms. A zero (0) will cause an indefinite wait.
Allows you to set the time the scanner will wait before timing out if ACK,
NAK, and ETX are enabled, and a host response is expected.
Intercharacter Delay
Default:
0. Corresponds to 0 ms displayed in the menu.
Options: 0 to 255. Zero (0) causes no delay between characters.
Allows you to set the time interval in milliseconds between individual char-
acters transmitted from the scanner to the host. A high setting will signifi-
cantly slow down communications. For example, a 200 setting will result in
a 1/5 second delay between each character that is transmitted.
Host Port
Allows you to set parameters for RS-232 communication whenever an RS-
232 protocol has been enabled.
Baud Rate
Default:
9600
Options: 9600, 19.2K,
300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800
Allows you to set the number of bits transmitted per second.
Parity
Default:
Even
Options: Even, Odd, None
Allows you to select an error detection routine in which one data bit in each
character is set to 1 or 0 so that the total number of 1 bits in the data field is
even or odd.
Stop Bits
Default:
One
Options: One, Two
Allows you to select the last one or two bits in each character to indicate the
end of the character.
