10 Keyboard Manual
RS232
The RS232 input characteristics of the keyboard’s scanner port (see
page 2) can be modified according to the following four parameters:
Baud Rate
Baud Rate (bits per second) refers to the speed of the data through
the scanner/RS232 port. Normally, the baud rate of the port should
match that of the input device.
Default is “9600 Baud”.
Parity
A technique used to detect data transmission errors by adding an
extra bit to each character. This scheme has been supplanted in
modern communication devices by “error correction”.
Default (and the current universal standard) is “No Parity”.
Data Bit
Number of bits per byte that are dedicated to data (minus start/stop
bits).
Default (and the current universal standard) is “8 Data Bits”.
Receive Terminator
A user-definable Receive Terminator can be inserted at the end of
input data. Pre-defined receive terminators include:
The above special characters must be bracketed by < > symbols as
shown.
Function codes (F keys, Cursor up, Enter, etc.) can also be inserted
via hexadecimal code (accessable in a linked menu) and must
include surrounding brackets (<>).
Letters and numbers should be entered directly by keyboard input
without surrounding brackets (<>).
Default is “None”.
