For example, to
read this "5" bar
code on the Setup
Menu, you would
need to cover any
adjacent bar codes
with paper or a
finger first, as
shown.
Don't forget to take the R/F Laser Scanner of Setup Mode by scanning End
Setup, otherwise the batteries will run down totally because the radio
transmitter remains on.
Using The RF Laser Setup Menu
1. To configure your reader using the Reader Setup Menu found in Appendix J
of this manual. You must first scan the Start Setup code at the top left corner.
Do this now. You'll hear two beeps. During Setup, nothing will be
transmitted to your computer; the RF Laser Setup Menu codes are strictly for
configuring the reader. If you did not hear two beeps, try scanning the code
again, until you hear the two beeps. If you've never scanned bar codes before,
read the scanning instructions on page 8 before continuing.
2. Next, choose the parameter you want to change an option for, and scan its
code (i.e. Code 3 of 9, or Postamble). You should hear two beeps if you
scanned correctly.
3. Then, choose the option you want to change from the list below the
parameter bar code you just scanned, and scan the number on the barpad
that corresponds to that option. For example, if you scanned the parameter
Codabar” and wanted to “Enable Codabar”, you would scan the number
0 on the barpad.
4. Now scan End Setup (at the top-right corner of the Reader Setup Menu to
complete the setup exercise. If you scanned correctly, you'll hear three beeps.
Continue scanning topics and options until you've made all the changes you
desire, and then scan End Setup to complete setup. If you are planning to use
several RF Laser scanners with one base station, pay attention to the Set ID
parameter.
The next several pages will show you all of the various RF Laser options.
Default settings are shown in bold in this manual and marked with an * on the
RF Laser Setup Menu.
