Enabling the Secondary Interface

The secondary interface can be programmed at any time.

You can temporarily disable the secondary interface, but still retain the second- ary interface settings in the imager’s memory by scanning the Disable bar code below. To re-enable the secondary interface, scan the Enable bar code.

Default =Disable.
