Optional Input Devices
The 9560 accepts input from several sources. The basic configuration includes
either an internal magnetic card reader or an internal slot scanner. The slot
scanner is available in visible or infraredlight models. You can connect any of
the following input devices to the 9560:
• 1700 Digital Keyboard
• 9191 Digital Satellite Wand Station
• 1260/1270 Series Digital Wands
• 1350 Series Badge Scanners
• 1500/1600 Series Laser Scanners
• RS-232 magnetic stripe reader
• Any asynchronous CRT terminal
• Any asynchronous host computer
Data Formats and Programming
The 9560 can format the data it collects to meet your system’s protocol and
communication requirements. You specify the format by scanning bar code
command labels, downloading command sequences from the host, or selecting
options from menus in the reader’s Prompting Configuration mode.
You can develop custom programs for the 9560 with the Interactive Reader
Language (IRL). IRL provides the flexibility of a high-level language and does
not require a development system. See Chapter 9, “Interactive Reader
Language,” for more information on IRL.
You can store programs in the 9560’s memory (256K of RAM) or in the host’s
memory to be downloaded to the reader. If the 9560 loses power, a NiCad
battery retains the memory for up to 10 days.
Memory
The 9560 provides 256K of RAM for storing IRL programs and data. The data
may be validation files or collected input, especially if the host cannot receive
data. The maximum memory available is limited as follows:
Type Maximum Size
System overhead 12K
IRL programs 52K
Data (with IRL programs) 182K
Data (no IRL programs) 240K
