Configuration of the Scanner to the Host System

The scanner is shipped from the factory programmed to a set of default conditions. These default conditions are in the Default Settings section of this guide pages 36-41 and in the ScanSelect™ Scanner Programming Guide. The default settings in the ScanSelect guide have an asterisk that appears before the brief definition next to the bar code.

For the scanner to properly communicate with the host system, it needs to be programmed to meet the specific scanning needs. Since each host system is unique, configure the scanner to match the host system requirements. Configure the scanner by entering program mode and scanning the appropriate bar codes that appear in the ScanSelect Scanner Programming Guide. (When using ScanSet™, refer to the ScanSet documentation for information on how to configure the scanner.)

1.Connect the scanner to the host system (Refer to the Scanner Connections to the Host section in this guide).

2.Enter program mode by scanning the ENTER/EXIT program mode bar code as the first bar code after a power up cycle. (The unit will beep three times)

3.Scan the appropriate bar code(s) that appear in the ScanSelect Scanner Programming Guide. (Reveal only one bar code to the scanner each time. With your hand, cover the bar code that is not to be scanned.)

4.Exit program mode by scanning the ENTER/EXIT program mode bar code again. (The new options will be saved and the scanner is ready for normal operation.)

Note: Non-RS-232 interfaces chosen in Section B of the ScanSelect Programming Guide do not match the default settings loaded when the same interface is selected with ScanSet.
