Scanning Sequence Examples

In most cases scanning one bar code sets the par ameter value. For example, to disable the d ecode aiming pattern,
scan the Disable Decode Aiming Pattern bar code listed under Decode Aiming Pattern on page 5-4. The digital
scanner issues a fast warble beep and the LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters require scanning several bar codes. See these parameter description s fo r this pro ced u re .

Errors While Scanning

Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
