BARCODE COUNT

 

Used to set the specific number of barcodes

—00

(00-99)

 

to be read on the label. 00 selects AUTO

 

 

 

 

Mode, allowing a variable number of

 

 

 

 

barcodes to be read per label format.

 

 

 

 

AUTO Mode should not be used with

 

 

 

 

imaged (bitmapped) barcodes or with

 

 

 

 

certain bar code addendums as shown in

 

 

 

 

Appendix B.

REDUNDANCY LEVEL

 

Used to ensure the data integrity of the bar

 

 

 

 

code. The selected level determines the

 

 

 

 

number of consecutive, identical decodes

 

 

 

 

required before passing the bar code (i.e., if

 

 

 

 

set to three times, the barcode will not pass

 

 

 

 

until it has decoded the same values three

 

 

 

 

times in succession.)

 

 

 

 

; Note: Depending upon the print speed,

 

 

 

 

 

 

higher verification levels may cause erroneous

 

 

 

 

 

 

failures when scanning multiple bar codes or

 

 

 

 

 

 

bar codes that are small in height.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

READ BARCODE (1X)

 

One decode per barcode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

—READ BARCODE (2X)

 

Two decodes per barcode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

READ BARCODE (3X)

 

Three decodes per barcode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

READ BARCODE (4X)

 

Four decodes per barcode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

READ BARCODE (5X)

 

Five decodes per barcode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

READ BARCODE (6X)

 

Six decodes per barcode.

 

 

 

 

 

BUZZER

 

Audible signal indicating a ‘good’ bar code.

 

 

 

 

; Note: Disable this function for higher label

 

 

 

 

 

throughput speeds.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ENABLED

 

Enables the buzzer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

—DISABLED

 

Disables the buzzer.

 

 

 

 

SET DEFAULTS

 

Reset the current settings of the Scanner to

 

 

 

 

the default settings.
