Programming Session | PSC SP400rf instruction

THE PROGRAMMING SESSION

It is possible to program multiple features during a single programming session (a programming session is defined as the period of time between scanning the “set” label and scanning the “end” label). However, it is recommended that sessions be limited to one feature, as it can be difficult to discover where an error has been made, should you make a mistake in the programming sequence. Additionally, it can be confusing to deter- mine which features may or may not have been successfully set following a failed session.

The scanner will not exit Programming Mode unless the “end” label is scanned. Disconnecting power during Programming Mode, before scanning the “end” label, will cause the scanner to forget any program- ming labels scanned during the current programming session and will cause the scanner to return to its previous settings.

SCANNER RESPONSE WHEN IN PROGRAMMING MODE

Visual verification that the SP400RF is in Programming Mode is provided by the red LED located on the base station, which will steadily flash until Programming Mode is exited. While in Programming Mode, the scanner will not decode regular barcode labels and will only enable features supported by the currently active interface. Maintaining a good record of all changes made will help ensure that you know if the standard factory settings have been changed.

Scanning regular barcode labels — the scanner will reject the label, sounding first a “good read” beep, followed by a low “bad” beep.

Scanning a valid programming label —

a.If the feature is supported by the active interface, the scanner will sound two “good read” beeps.

b.If incomplete or incorrect programming has been entered when the END label is scanned, the rejection tone will be sounded (a “good read” beep, followed by a low “bad” beep) regardless of whether the labels scanned were valid programming labels. For example, if the END label is scanned immediately following the SET label, the lack of programming content will result in a rejection tone.
