DS457 Fixed Mount Imager Integration Guide

Changing Default Values

The imager ships with the settings shown in the

Table 6-1 on page 6-3

(also see

Appendix A, Standard Default

Parameters

for all host and miscellaneous defaults). If the default values suit requirements, programming is not

necessary.

There are two ways to change a parameter value:

Scan the appropriate bar codes in this guide. These new values replace the standard default values in

memory.

For SSI and USB SNAPI hosts, send a “parameter send” command from the host system. Hexadecimal

parameter numbers appear in this chapter below the parameter title, and options appear in parenthesis

beneath the accompanying bar codes. See the

Simple Serial Interface (SSI) Programmer’s Guide

for

detailed instructions for changing parameter values using this method.

To return all features to default values, scan

*Restore Defaults on page 6-5

. Throughout the programming bar

code menus, asterisks (

*

) indicate default values.

Scanning Sequence Examples

In most cases, scanning one bar code sets the parameter value. For example, to set the beeper tone to high,

scan the

High Frequency

(beeper tone) bar code listed under

Beeper Tone on page 6-9

. The imager issues a

fast warble beep signal and a good decode LED signal, signifying a successful parameter entry.

Other parameters, such as

Decode Session Timeout

, require scanning several bar codes. See these

parameter descriptions for this procedure.

Errors While Scanning

Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.

NOTE

Most computer monitors allow scanning the bar codes directly on the screen. When scanning from the

screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the bar code clearly, and

bars and/or spaces are not merging.
