SETUP PARAMETERS, cont'd.
Serial Communication,
cont'd.
• Baudrate
The baudrate is the transmission speed in bits per second. The
following baudrates can be selected:
300
600
1200
2,400
4,800
9,600 Max. recommended baudrate for 20 mA current loop
19,200
38,400 Only available on "uart2:" and "uart3:".
If communication problems occur, try a lower baudrate.
• Parity
The parity decides how the software will check for transmission
errors. There are five options:
None Do not use in combination with 1 stop bit on "uart1:"
Even
Odd
Mark
Space
• Character Length
The character length specifies the number of bits in a character.
For most purposes 7 bits will be sufficient, but if special characters
or characters specific for other languages are to be used, 8 bits are
recommended. Refer to the Intermec Fingerprint Reference
Manual for information on which characters are available in
various combinations of character length and character set.
7 Characters ASCII 0 – 127 decimal can be transmitted.
8 Characters ASCII 0 – 255 decimal can be transmitted.
• Stop Bits
The number of stop bits specifies how many bits will define the
end of a character. There are two options:
1 Do not use this option in combination with no parity on "uart1:"
2
• Flowcontrol
There are several different ways to control the exchange of data
between the printer and the connected computer or other device
("Handshaking"). Each option can be enabled or disabled sepa-
rately, but normally only one alternative should be selected. For
galvanically insulated interfaces, i.e. 20 mA current loop and RS
422/485, ENQ/ACK or XON/XOFF are to prefer in order to
retain interference protection and limit the number of lines.
