disable this setting for security reasons after initial connection setup is completed.

lock status of the keyboard. Incorrect settings may result in reversed case of
alphabets being transmitted. There are 3 options to this parameter:

detect the capital lock status of the keyboard before it transmits data.

alphabets can be sent according to their case (the

User can choose how the scanner transmits digits by configuring this parameter.
The scanner can transmit digits by using the alphanumeric key or by using the
