5. Press + or – to cycle through the choices:
• Disabled. Default setting. The validator does not send any
data to an external device.
• Serial Port. The printer outputs the bar code analysis and
underlying data from the validator to a device connected to
the serial port, so the validator data can be seen and
analyzed with the optional remote management software.
• Network Port. The printer outputs the bar code analysis
and underlying data from the validator to a device
connected to the network port so the validator data can be
seen and analyzed with the optional remote management
software.
NOTE: Only one port can be used at a time. If you select Network
Port, the printer front panel will display “DEACTIVATING
HOST SERIAL.”
If you later change the setting to Serial Port, the printer
front panel will display “REACTIVATING HOST SERIAL.”
