RS-232C Host Types
Three RS-232C hosts are set up with their own parameter default settings (Table 5-2).
Selecting the ICL, Fujitsu, or Nixdorf RS-232C terminal sets the defaults listed below. These
defaults take precedence over standard defaults. So if you select Fujitsu RS-232C, then select
the standard defaults, the Fujitsu defaults still take precedence.

*In the Nixdorf Mode B, if CTS is Low, scanning is disabled. When CTS is High, the user can scan
bar codes.
**If Nixdorf Mode B or PDT 3300 is scanned without the scanner connected 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 scanner.
