Worth Data RF Laser

Data characters are garbled or missing.

• Make sure you've set the reader to the same baud rate, parity, data bits

and stop bits as your serial port.

• If Code 39 bar codes are transmitting in the wrong case (upper and

lower transposed), set Caps Lock Off on the Setup Menu.

• If you're getting occasional extraneous characters, try cutting the

jumper between pins 8/20 in the serial Y-Cable's DB25 connectors. See

page 6.
