Symbol Technologies DS 3408 - Manual (Page 149)

Scanner Emulation Interface 11-7
Parameter Pass-Through
The Scanner Emulation host can process parameter bar code messages and send them to the attached decoder. In this way, customers
using Symbol compliant decoders can control the behavior of the entire system by scanning the necessary parameters only once.
For example, to enable D 2 of 5, scan the D 2 of 5 Enable parameter bar code. The digital scanner and the attached decoder both
process the parameter.
Convert Newer Code Types
The digital scanner supports a variety of code types that are not decodable by attached decoder systems. To allow compatibility in
these environments, the digital scanner converts these code types to more commonly decodable symbologies, as per the following
chart. Symbologies not listed on this chart are transmitted normally.
When decoding these code types with this parameter disabled, the digital scanner issues Convert Error beeps and transmits no data.
