Communications
Host Port Protocol
Note: The preamble <K141> and postamble <K142> character strings can be used to
frame the decoded data in both protocol modes.
Point-to-Point (Standard)
Point-to-Point with RTS/CTS
Usage: In general, the point-to-point protocols will work well in most applications.
They require no address and must use RS-232 or RS-422 communications
standards.
Definition: Protocols define the sequence and format in which information is transferred
between the reader and the host.
Serial Cmd: <K140,protocol>
Default: Point-to-Point
Options: 0 = Point-to-Point
1 = Point-to-Point with RTS/CTS
Usage: Used only with RS-232 or RS-422.
Definition: Standard Point-to-Point requires no address and sends the data to the
host whenever it is available, without a request or handshake from the host.
Serial Cmd: <K140,0>
Usage: A reader initiates a data transfer with an RTS (request-to-send) transmission.
The host, when ready, responds with a CTS (clear-to-send) and the data is
transmitted. RTS and CTS signals are transmitted over two dedicated wires
as defined in the RS-232 standard. Used only with RS-232.
Definition: Point-to-Point with RTS/CTS (request-to-send/clear-to-send) is a simple
hardware handshake protocol that allows a reader to initiate data transfers
to the host.
Serial Cmd: <K140,1>
