Rs232 Interface - Datalogic DS6300 Reference Manual

CUSTOM CABLE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

4.2.1 RS232 Interface

The main serial interface is used for communication with the Host computer and allows both
transmission of code data and configuring the reader. The overall maximum cable length
should not exceed 15 m (50 ft).
The following pins of the 25/26-pin connector are used for RS232 interface connection:
+ V
RTS

The RTS and CTS signals control data transmission and synchronize the connected devices.
If the RTS/CTS handshaking protocol is enabled, the DS6300 activates the RTS output to
indicate a message is to be transmitted. The receiving unit activates the CTS input to enable
the transmission.
