*In the Nixdorf Mode B, if CTS is low, scanning is disabled. When CTS is high, scanning is enabled.
**If you scan Nixdorf Mode B without connecting the scanner to the proper host, it may appear unable
to scan. If this occurs, scan a different RS-232 host type within 5 seconds of cycling power to the
scanner.
