*In Nixdorf Mode B, if CTS is low, scanning is disabled. When CTS is high, scanning is enabled.
**If Nixdorf Mode B is scanned without the imager connected to the proper host, it may appear
unable to scan. If this happens, scan a different serial host type within 5 seconds of cycling power
to the imager.
