I/O Port Selection
Your X-Rite 361T comes equipped with a serial port that allows data to
be transmitted and/or received by the 361T to/from an external device.
The 361T can be externally controlled by the Serial Input Commands
discussed in "Serial Input Commands" in Chapter 6.
• RCI [Remote Control Input] enables or disables the ability to
externally control the 361T via the I/O port.
• RPT ON/OFF [Reference Print] enables or disables the Reference
values during print-out.
• P5 determines the status of Pin 5 of the I/O port. Pin 5 may be set to
OFF, BUSY, or CTS (Clear To Send). Note: Pin 5 should normally
be set to OFF when Pin 5 is not going to be used.
• BAUD RATE determines the output rate (characters per second) of
the I/O port. Available outputs are: 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800,
9600, and OFF.
• HDR [Header] enables or disables the header (DEN, +DOT, -DOT,
TRANS, and x10) during print-out. When set to ON, the header will
print. When set to OFF, the header will not print.
• DPT [Decimal Point] enables or disables the decimal point during
print-out. When set to ON, the decimal point will print. When set to
OFF, the decimal point will not print.
• CR / CR LF [Carriage Return / Carriage Return, Line Feed] varies
the delimiter at the end of each line of data. When set to CR, just a
Carriage Return is sent at the end of a line of data. When set to CR
LF, a Carriage Return and a Line Feed are sent at the end of a line
of data.
• COMP [Computer output] varies the output format of the I/O port.
When set to ON, a Space will appear after each group of data
values. When set to OFF, no space will appear after each group of
data values.
NOTE: <SP>=Space, <CR>=Carriage Return, and
<LF>=Line Feed
• X ON / X OFF - not available at this time.
