RS-232/USB-Com Interfaces

Disable Character

Specifies the value of the RS-232 host command used to disable the reader. ASCII characters or any hex value from 0 to 0xFF can be selected.

NOTE

Setting to previously defined characters such as XON, XOFF, or host commands conflicts with normal operation of these characters. 8-bit data is not recognized when the option Data Bits has been set as 7

Data Bits.

To set the value:

1.Determine the desired character or value. A setting of 0xFF indicates the the Dis- able Character is not used (not available).

2.Use the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual to find the hex equiv- alent for the desired character/value.

3.Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Program- ming Mode.

4.Scan the barcode: SELECT DISABLE CHARACTER SETTING.

5.Scan the appropriate two alpha-numeric characters from the keypad in Appendix E, Keypad, that represent the desired character/value in step 1 above. The second character will cause a two-beep indication.

6.Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Program- ming Mode.

This completes the procedure. See Table 12 for some examples of how to set this feature.
