Wand EmulationWand Emulation Connection

The Wand Emulation Connection bar codes should be used if you want to change the terminal ID only, without changing any other image scanner set- tings. We recommend using Wand Emulation Plug & Play bar codes to program your image scanner to emulate a wand reader. The Wand Emulation Plug

&Play bar codes change other parameters, in addition to changing the terminal ID. Please refer to Wand Emulation Plug & Play on page 2-2for further infor- mation.

In Wand Emulation mode, the image scanner decodes the bar code then sends data in the same format as a wand scanner. The Code 39 Format converts all symbologies to Code 39.
