Connecting to a PC Serial Port or RS-232
The reader has a 9-pin female RS-232 connector that connects to a serial port or RS-232 connector
on an IBM or compatible personal computer. The serial port can operate up to 57,600 bps. To make
this connection, you need:
•
An appropriately configured serial cable.
•
One of the following adapters, if your computer's serial port does not have a 9-pin connector:
- A 15-pin to 9-pin adapter, if your computer has a 15-pin serial port connector.
- A 25-pin to 9-pin adapter, if your computer has a 25-pin serial port connector.
•
Use the following procedure to connect the reader to your computer's serial port.
1. Attach the male connector on the serial cable to the 9-pin serial connector on the reader's front
panel.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to your computer's serial port. Use an adapter, if
appropriate, to make this connection.
