Problems Transmitting Data Through the Serial Port
If you are having problems sending or receiving data through the serial port on the
terminal, check these possible problems:
•
Make sure the terminal is connected to the PC, host computer, or serial device
through COM1. For help, see “Connecting to a Serial Device or Network” in
Chapter 1.
•
Make sure you are using the appropriate cable to connect the terminal to the PC,
host, or serial device.
•
Make sure the terminal’s serial port parameters are configured to match the serial
port configuration on the host computer or serial device. For help, see “Using Serial
Communications on the Terminal” in Chapter 3.
Problems Transmitting Data Through the DCS 30X
If you have a problem while running the application on the terminal in a UDP Plus
network, check these possible communications problems.
Problem Solution
Transaction Buffer Full. The buffer holding transactions to be sent to the controller is full. Stop
collecting data with this terminal. Make sure the terminal is
communicating with the DCS 30X and let the terminal send all the
transactions in the buffer before you continue collecting data.
Sending Buffer Transactions. This is an information message to tell you that buffered transactions are
now being sent to the DCS 30X. You can begin collecting data again
once the message clears.
Transaction Aborted. The transaction just sent to the DCS 30X was not received. Try sending
the transaction again.
Transmit Error XX, press Enter. There is an error transmitting data to the DCS 30X. XX represents the
status code error. Note the error code listed in the message and contact
your local Intermec service representative for help. Press
to
continue.
Receive Error XX, press Enter. There is an error receiving data from the DCS 30X. XX represents the
status code error. Note the error code listed in the message and contact
your local Intermec service representative for help. Press to
continue.
Shutting down. The DCS 30X is shutting down. You may continue collecting data and
buffer the transactions in the terminal until the DCS 30X starts again or
stop collecting data with the terminal.
Controller Shutdown. The DCS 30X has shut down. You may continue collecting data and
buffer the transactions in the terminal until the DCS 30X starts again or
stop collecting data with the terminal.
