Scanning Sequence

A scanning sequence establishes a value for one parameter type. During a scanning

sequence, bar codes are scanned to select a parameter. All bar codes necessary for

programming the scanner are provided in the Appendix section of this manual.

Scanning Sequence Example

In this example, assume you want to program the scanner for all default settings except

for two parameters, Appendix and Appendix .

Since you want to keep the majority of the default settings, scan the Appendix bar

code. The default for DECODE UPC ONLY is DISABLED, but in this example, you

need it enabled. To do this, scan the DECODE UPC ONLY ENABLE bar code. You’ll

hear hi/lo/hi/low warble. The warble sound indicates that the scanner has been

successfully programmed for the selected parameter. Other beeper indications are

listed in Chapter 3.

The default for INTERCHARACTER DELAY is 0 msec, but you need it set to 2 msec.

To program the scanner for a 2msec intercharacter delay, scan the bar codes listed

below. This sequence includes a two-digit entry; single-digit entries require a leading

zero.

You’ll hear...

1. Scan INTERCHARACTER DELAY Short high tone

2. Scan 0 Short high tone

3. Scan 2 Hi/Lo/Hi/Lo warble

Errors While Scanning

Don’t worry if you make an error during a scanning sequence. If you’re scanning a

multi-step sequence, scanning CANCEL removes you from that sequence so that you

can start again.

Otherwise, simply scan the single correct bar code for the desired parameter.
