The status window will self flush automatically when the status window buffer is full. The window
will indicate how many times it has self flush at the top of the status window. The current
windows buffer if 2^16 characters which is approximately equivalent ot 1500 singulations of 96-
bit EPCs. Use the large window buffer option to increase the windows buffer to 2^22.

The Help Tab contains the decoded packet descriptions for reference. The following is the
summary of the decoded packet formats:

Info Bar
The Info Bar indicates when a reader is connected or when no reader is connected. The Info
Bar will also indicate the type of connection either USB or UART.

Enumerate
The Enumerate Button will execute the reader enumeration process. The application will scan
the USB interface and the selected COM port for valid readers. The enumeration is only
performed when the application is started and when the user presses this button. If a new
reader is connected after the application is started, the enumeration process must be executed
to control the reader. The reader list will be repopulated when the enumeration is complete. If
the reader is not in the pull down list, check the cable connections to make sure the reader is
connected correctly. Depending on the situation and nature of readers using the UART port, if
