USER MANUAL – Mantis™ II Reader

Serial Settings

The Mantis™ II Reader supports operation via a standard RS-232 serial

port, which may be used instead of, or in conjunction with the Ethernet jack.

The Reader will accept commands from either source, or output results to

both. In additional, the serial port doubles as a diagnostic port, providing

valuable feedback about Reader functionality and configuration during

power-up and programming.

Having selected the appropriate serial port (COM port) on your system, use

the following settings in your communications package:
