Response string
"RTRDY<endekennung>" (Reply sTore program ReaDY)
Table 9- 59
Characters
<endekennung>
After this response string is received, a trigger can be sent via an external source.
Note the following:
• If this response string is not sent, either the DISA bit has not been set or <program no> is
outside the valid range.
• If "RTRDY" is received and the trigger is sent, the status must be queried cyclically with
"MGST". The query is used to check whether the save procedure is completed.
• When the save procedure is completed, the optical reader will be in processing mode with
<program no>.
• If the optical reader is not in processing mode and there is no error state, the save
procedure is not yet finished or it is still waiting for the trigger signal.
Once the save procedure is completed, the DISA bit is reset.
The save procedure can be canceled with "Reset command (Page 204)" (upon receipt of
"RTRDY").
