*In the Nixdorf Mode B, if CTS is Low, scanning is disabled. When CTS is High, the user can scan

bar codes.

**If Nixdorf Mode B is scanned without the scanner connected to the proper host, it may appear

unable to scan. If this happens, scan a different RS-232 host type within 5 seconds of cycling power

to the scanner.
