3.6 AUXILIARY RS232 INTERFACE
The RS232 auxiliary interface is available for Point-to-Point connections. When it is
connected to the host computer it allows both transmission of code data and reader
configuration by VisiSet™.
The parameters relative to the aux interface (baud rate, data bits, etc.) as well as particular
communication modes such as LOCAL ECHO can be defined through the Communication
folder of the VisiSet™ utility program.
The 9-pin female Auxiliary Interface connector inside the CBX is the preferred connector for
device configuration or communication monitoring.
