Does the scanner read your bar code incorrectly?
If the scanner reads a bar code (one beep for a good read), but the bar code is not displayed correctly on the host screen:
➊The scanner may not be programmed for the appropriate terminal interface.
Example: You scan “12345” and the host displays “@es%.”
Reprogram the scanner with the correct “Plug and Play” or Terminal Selection bar code (see Section 1).
➋The scanner may not be programmed to output your bar code properly.
Example: You scan “12345” and the host displays “A12345B.”
Reprogram the scanner with the proper Symbology selections (see Section 4, Symbology Menu).
The scanner won’t read your bar code at all?
If the scanner will not read your bar code:
➊Try scanning the Sample Bar Codes (found on the back cover of the User’s Guide).
If the scanner reads the Sample Bar Codes, check that your bar code is readable. (See “Is the scanner having trouble reading your bar codes” on the previous page.)
Verify that your bar code symbology is enabled. (See Sections 4, Symbology Menu.)
If the scanner does not read the Sample Bar Codes either, continue to #2, below...
➋If the scanner won’t read the Sample Bar Codes either:
Verify that the bar code symbologies are enabled. (See Sections 4, Symbology Menu.)
Scan the “Default All... ” bar code on each symbology menu page in Section 4 to enable most symbologies. (MSI and Plessey will have to be enabled individually, as they are defaulted Off.)
