Concatenating Configuration Commands
Commands can be concatenated (added together) in a single string or data block. For
example, <K145,1><K220,1><K450,1><A> enables LRC, sets End of Read Cycle mode
to New Trigger, enables Narrow Margins, and resets the data buffers (without saving the
changes for power-on).
Serial Command Status Request
To ensure that any command was received and accepted, you can send the Show Reader
Status command: <?>.
The status of a specific serial command can be requested by entering the command followed
by a question mark. For example, send <K142?> to request the status of Postamble.
Entering Control Characters in Serial Commands
To enter control characters within a serial command, hold down the Ctrl key while typing the
desired character.
Example: To enter a carriage return and line feed (^M^J), enter <K141,1,CNTL-m CNTL-j>
