Chapter 5 Decoding Preferences
Introduction
You can program the digital scanner to perform various functions, or activate different features. This chapter
describes digital scanner preference features and provides programming bar codes for selecting these features.
The digital scanner ships with the settings shown in the Decoding Preferences Default Table on page 5-2 (also see
Appendix A, Standard Default Parameters for all host 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 powers down.
The digital scanner communicates with the host through the digital scanner cradle. During setup, the digital
scanner is paired with a cradle, which connects to the host through one of several interfaces (see
Pairing on page
1-9 and the applicable host interface chapter). Each cradle can pair with up to four digital scanners.
If not using a Synapse or USB 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 connecting to a new host.
To return all features to default values, scan the Set Default Parameter on page 4-3 . Throughout the programming
bar code menus, asterisks (
*
) indicate default values.
NOTE Disconnect the power supply before changing host cables or the digital scanner may not recognize the
new host.
