TRAKKER Antares 246X Stationary Terminal User's Manual
Configuring the Serial Port Parameters
You must first select the communications protocol for each COM port. Depending on
the protocol, you need to set some or all of these serial port parameters to have the
terminal communicate with a host computer or serial device in a wired network:
Serial Port Parameter
Baud rate
Commands via serial port
Data bits
EOM (End of Message)
Flow control
Handshake
LRC
Parity
Poll (Polling)
Protocol
SOM (Start of Message)
Stop bits
Timeout delay
The values you set for the terminal's serial port must match the values set for the host's
(or other device's) serial port. In a CrossBar network, you also need to configure your
9154 or 9161 controller to add the new multi-drop 2460 device. For help, see your
controller user's manual.
You set the serial port parameters by scanning bar codes. For help, see Chapter 8,
"Configuration Command Reference."
