Counter Commands
The Xs in all counter commands that follow denote a numeric value
from 00000 to 65,535. After reaching the maximum numeric limit
of 65,535, you will receive an error message and the counter will
automatically rollover and start counting again at 00000. To obtain
the cumulative total of counts after the rollover has occurred, add
65,536 per each rollover (the reader does not keep track of the
number of rollovers) to the current count.
Note: You will lose all counter values if you cycle power to the
reader, press
[] , or enter the Menu Configuration Program.
