Host Port Protocol
Usage:
In general, the point-to-point protocols will work well in most applications.
They require no address and must use RS-232 communications standards.
Definition:
Protocols define the sequence and format in which information is transferred
between the reader and the host.
Serial Cmd:
<K140,protocol,address>
Default:
Point-to-Point
Options:
0 = Point-to-Point
4 = ACK/NAK
5 = Polling Mode
Note: In all protocol modes, the preamble
strings can be used to frame the decode data, and both are included in calculating the
LRC
(Longitudinal Redundancy Check).
Point-to-Point (Standard)
Usage:
Used only with RS-232.
Definition:
Standard Point-to-Point requires no address and sends the data to the
host whenever it is available, without a request or handshake from the host.
