    3) Plug the AC Power Adapter to the AC power receptacle. When the unit is correctly powered up, it beeps 3 times. 4) Power up the host. Note: The unit, Model THIR-3000DM, independently recognizes its own read operation and its operation setup. In case of use independently, the user should disable RTS/CTS control as “CSRS=0”.
  • Page 17 2.2 Setting up the Host Computer 1) Communication Conditions It is required to match the set up values between the THIR-3000DM unit and the host computer. Please refer to Section 7, conditions for RS-232C setup, for the default settings. 2) Transmission Protocol Data transactions between the reader and the host should be carried out in the prefixed communication protocol.
