Transparent Mode

Usage:	A common application, in conjunction with handheld Imagers, is one that employs an auxiliary readout to detect misapplied symbols.
Definition:	In Transparent Mode, data is passed between the auxiliary port and the host. The Imager buffers data from the auxiliary port and echoes the keyed data on the auxiliary port.

• Auxiliary port data is passed through to the host whenever a return key is pressed at the auxiliary port or whenever symbol data is sent. If sent with symbol data, it is processed on a first-in/first-out basis.
  
  

• Auxiliary port data to the host is always sent with a preamble and postamble.

• If the Imager is in a polling mode with the host, auxiliary port data will still pass through.

Data Originating from the Imager

• Transmission to the auxiliary port occurs immediately upon a good read.

• Data sent to the auxiliary port does not include a preamble or a postamble.

• Communications with the auxiliary port is always in Point-to-Point protocol, even if the host is in a polled protocol mode.

Data Originating from the Host

• All host data is echoed to the auxiliary port in unpolled mode.
