RS 232 Descriptions
Word Length/Parity: This selection allows you to set the RS 232 word length at seven or eight bits of data per character. The number
of start and stop bits is fixed at one each. If an application requires only ASCII Hex characters 0 through 7F decimal (text, digits, and
punctuation), select 7 data bits. For applications requiring use of the full ASCII set, select 8 data bits per character.
This selection also provides a means of checking character bit patterns for validity. The scanner can be configured to operate under
Even, Odd, Mark / None, or Space parity options. The host terminal must be set up for the same parity as the scanner, to ensure
3
reliable communication.
