Programming
The scanner is typically factory-configured with a set of default features standard to the interface
type you ordered. After scanning the interface bar code from the Interface Related Features sec-
tion, you can select other options and customize your scanner through use of the instructions
and programming bar codes available in that section and also the Data Editing and Symbologies
chapters of this manual.

Using the Programming Bar Codes

This manual contains feature descriptions and bar codes which allow you to reconfigure your
scanner. Some programming bar code labels, like the label below for resetting defaults, require
only the scan of that single label to enact the change. Most of the programming labels in this
manual, however, require the scanner to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning
them. Scan a START/END bar code once to enterProgramming Mode. Once the scanner is in
Programming Mode, you can scan a number of parameter settings before scanning the START/
END bar code a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode
and return the scanner to normal operation.
Resetting the Standard Product Defaults
If you are unsure of what programming options are in your scanner, or you’ve changed some
options and want the factory settings restored, scan the Standard Product Default Settings bar
code below. This will copy the factory configuration for the currently active interface to the cur-
rent configuration.
The programming section lists the factory default settings for each of the menu commands for
the standard RS-232 interface in BOLD text on the following pages. Exceptions to default set-
tings for the other interfaces can be found in Appendix D, Default Settings.
