Case conversion: The characters within code data or the whole output string can be set in either
upper case or lower case.
FN1 substitution transmission: The imager supports a FN1 substitution feature for keyboard
wedge, USB and RS-232 interface. The replacement string of FN1 can be chosen by user (see 3-
