Intermec EasyCoder F2 – User's Guide
The serial communication parameters control the communica-
tion between the printer and the connected computer or other
devices on the serial port. The serial communication parameters
have no effect on parallel communication.
Make sure the printer's communication parameters match the
setup of the connected device or vice versa. If not, the response
from the printer to the host will be garbled.
Baud Rate
The baud rate is the transmission speed in bits per second. There
are 8 options:
•
1200
•
2400
•
4800
•
9600
• 19200
• 38400
• 57600
• 115200
Data Bits
This parameter specifi es the number of bits that will defi ne a
character.
• 7
Characters ASCII 000 to 127 decimal
• 8
Characters ASCII 000 to 255 decimal (default)
Parity
The parity decides how the fi rmware will check for transmission
errors. There are four options:
• None (default)
• Even
• Odd
• Space
Stop Bits
The number of stop bits specifi es how many bits will defi ne the
end of a character. There are two options:
• 1
(default)
• 2
