POWERSCAN® D8530
1.3CONFIGURATION METHODS
1.3.1Reading Configuration Codes
This manual can be used for complete setup and configuration. If you wish to change the default settings, you can configure the PowerScan® D8530 reader by reading the programming code symbols in this manual. Configuration commands and their relative arguments are read individually using the symbols in this manual. See Appendix D.
1.3.2Using Datalogic Aladdin™
The Datalogic Aladdin™ program, available on the CD-ROM provided, allows programming the reader by selecting configuration commands or printing them through a user-friendly graphical interface running on the PC. These commands are sent to the reader over the current communication interface; or they can be printed to be read.
1.3.3Sending Configuration Strings from Host
An alternative configuration method is provided in Appendix A using the RS-232 or USB COM interface. This method is particularly useful when many devices need to be configured with the same settings. Batch files containing the desired parameter settings can be prepared to configure devices quickly and easily.
The PowerScan® D8330 reader incorporates a multi-standard interface, which can be connected to a Host by plugging the correct interface cable into the connector and closing the cable cover.
