The
Programming
Session
Scanner programming allows you to customize the scanner’s configuration to match your specific needs. A typical programming session is conducted as follows:
1.
Scan the SET bar code at the top of the page. The scanner will emit one beep, indicating it has read the bar code and the green
LED will flash on and off slowly while the scanner remains in
Programming Mode. Normal scanning functions are disabled.
2.
Scan the programming bar code(s) to make the desired changes. With few exceptions, the scanner will emit a triple beep each time you scan a valid programming bar code.
NOTE
Not all features are available for all interfaces. The scanner will sound an error tone when scanning programming bar codes for features that cannot be used with the currently active interface. Only features supported by the currently active interface will be implemented.
NOTE
If you are enabling a different interface (I/F), we suggest/recommend that you change the I/F designation first and then proceed with other changes.
Once a bar code is scanned that changes the scanner's I/F, all previous I/F configuration items scanned in the programming session are lost.
3.
Scan the END label at the bottom of the page to save any new settings and exit Programming Mode. The scanner will sound a beep and reset upon exiting Programming Mode, and the green LED will return to its usual state (on steady or off).
The scanner will not exit Programming Mode unless the END bar code is scanned or the scanner’s battery is removed.
Removing power during Programming Mode, before scanning the END label, will cause all new settings to be ignored. On power-up, the scanner will return to previous settings.
4.
Maintain a record of all changes made to ensure that you know if the original factory settings have been changed. Use the table in Appendix D: Record of Programmable Features on page
195 to log your custom configuration changes
