8 N4680 2D Decoded Scan Engine User Guide
RS485 Packet Mode
The following selection allows you to break up large data into smaller packets on
an IBM POS terminal. To break up large bar codes into small packets, scan the
Packet Mode On bar code below. Scan the Packet Mode Off bar code if you want
large bar code data to be sent to the host in a single chunk. Default = Packet Mode
Off.
RS485 Packet Length
If you are using Packet mode, you can specify the size of the data “packet” that is
sent to the host. Larger packets are better for faster transmission, smaller packets
can be used for a host buffer that may not be able to keep up and cause loss of
data. Scan the Packet Length bar code, then the packet size (from 20 - 256) from
the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual, then Save. Default =
40.
