If the TriCoder receives ASCII 01, 02 or 03, the TriCoder displays:
•
In order to make this operation truly automated, you need to
have a way to for the TriCoder to query the host periodically as
to whether or not the host has a pick list to download to the
TriCoder. To do this, when the user sees the prompt:
Instead of pressing YES or NO, the user presses the F2 key, causing
the TriCoder to transmit its EOF STRING to the host computer.
•
If the user has set the EOF STRING as SO (ASCII 14), this
transmission tells the host that the TriCoder is ready and
waiting to receive a Pick List. The TriCoder will wait 10
seconds for a response from the host. If the host is not ready
and does not respond, the TriCoder displays:
•
If the host is ready for the TriCoder, it sends back the ASCII
character that corresponds to the action it wants to take (ASCII
01, 02, 03, 04, 06 or 21).
•
While a Pick List is downloading, the TriCoder displays
If there is no Pick List to download (ASCII 04 or 06), the
TriCoder displays:
•
It is highly recommended that operators be cautioned against
uploading an incomplete Pick List. If the operator attempts to
upload and incomplete Pick List, the TriCoder displays:
