If the parameter is not configured or set to 0

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(default), the driver will identify the start of a

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

message as FORMFEED (0x0C) and the end as two

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

carriage returns (0x0D 0x0D)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Start_Method*

 

When the parameter is set to 1, the first carriage

1,0

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

return (0x0D) will be considered the start of the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

message (all characters before the first carriage

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

return will be ignored). and the end as two carriage
