Notes:
In the Nixdorf Mode B, if CTS is low, scanning is disabled. When CTS is high, scanning is enabled.
If you scan Nixdorf Mode B without connecting the linear imager to the proper host, it may appear unable
to scan. If this happens, scan a different RS-232 host type within 5 seconds of cycling power to the linear
imager.
The CUTE host disables all parameter scanning, including Set Defaults. If you inadvertently select CUTE,
scan *Enable Parameter Bar Code Scanning (01h) on page 7-5, then change the host selection.
In ASCII format, when 7-bit is selected, Parity must be set to Odd or Even. If Parity is set to None, the
scanner automatically operates in 8-bit mode, even if 7-bit is scanned.
