LS 3603-I265A Special Operating Instructions
(73-13583-265)
Revision B: June 2000
2
The LS 3603-I265A acknowledges and exe-
cutes RS-232 parameter configuration com-
mands, beeper control commands, and LED
control commands.
The scanner contains custom parameter de-
faults provided in the Parameter Definition Ta-
bles.
The new Continuous Laser On parameter puts
the scanner into a continuous scan mode.
When this parameter is enabled, the scanner
stays on as if it were in an Intellistand and re-
mains in a fast scan until the scan stand time-
out value expires. It then enters a slower
“blink” mode. The laser enters a fast scan
mode again at the next trigger pull.
Custom Features
The LS 3603-I265A allows an RS-232 host to
send parameter configuration commands,
beeper control commands, and LED control
command.
The host communicates with the scanner by
sending a Host Message. A Host Message is a
string that contains an STX, the total string
length, one or more Host Commands, an ETX,
and an LRC for the string.
RS-232 Host Mode
The scanner must be set for RS-232 (Standard)
Host Interface to accept configuration com-
mands and requests. RS-232 Host Interface is
the default interface.
Note that the scanner trigger must be pressed
after powerup before RS-232 communication
can be established with the host.
Host Message
When the LS 3603 is in RS-232 Host Mode, it
accepts Host Messages that contain Host
Command Strings. The format of the Host
Message is as follows:
