Chapter 4 User Preferences & Miscellaneous Digital Scanner Options
Introduction
If desired, program the digital scanner to perform various functions, or activate different features. This chapter
describes each user preference feature and provides the programming bar codes necessary for selecting
these features.
The digital scanner ships with the settings shown in Table 4-4 on page 4-2 (also see Appendix A, Standard
Default Parameters for all host device and miscellaneous defaults). If the default values suit requirements,
programming is not necessary.
To set feature values, scan a single bar code or a short bar code sequence. The settings are stored in
non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the digital scanner is powered down.
If not using a USB cable or Synapse cable, select a host type (see each host chapter for specific host
information) after the power-up beeps sound. This is only necessary upon the first power-up when connected
to a new host.
To return all features to default values, scan the Set Default Parameter on page 4-4. Throughout the
programming bar code menus, default values are indicated with asterisks (*).
NOTE Most computer monitors allow scanning the bar codes directly on the screen. When
scanning from the screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where the bar code
can be seen clearly, and bars and/or spaces are not merging.
