The LS 400Xi is shipped with the settings shown in the Default Table on page 5-2. These
default values are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the scanner is
powered down. You can change these default values by scanning the appropriate bar codes
included in this manual. These new values replace the standard default values in memory. The
default parameter values can be recalled by scanning the SET ALL DEFAULTS bar code on
page 5-7.
Note: The ability to scan PDF417 bar codes is not enabled by default. You
must program the scanner to read PDF417 bar codes by scanning the
ENABLE PDF417 bar code on page 5-75.
Even if the default parameters suit your needs, you must still select a terminal type. The
scanner automatically identiļ¬es the host type on power-up (provided the host is powered-up
before the scanner is attached to it). You must then select the appropriate terminal type for
that host. For example, if the scanner is connected to an IBM 4683, after you hear the power-
up beeps, select the proper port from the choices on page 5-8. The same applies to all other
host types.
