Chapter 6
RS-232 Interface
Introduction
This chapter covers RS-232 host information for setting up your scanner. The RS-232
interface is used to attach the scanner to point-of-sale devices, host computers, or other
devices with an available RS-232 port (e.g., com port). This scanner uses TTL RS-232
levels which will interface with all PC's without any additional hardware.
Note:For particularly noisy electrical environments you may require a
cable with a RS-232 transceiver. To obtain this cable, contact
Symbol Support Center.
If your particular host is not listed in Table 6-2, you need to set the communication
parameters to match your host device. To set communication parameters for hosts not
listed, refer to the documentation for the host device.
