Programming the Scanner
The scanner is shipped from the factory programmed to a set of default
conditions noted in this guide by an asterisk that appears before the brief
definition. Since each host system is unique, the scanner has to be configured
to match your host system requirements.
1.
Connect the scanner to the host system or power source.
(Refer to the Installation and User’s Guide MLPN 2365.)
2.
Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAM MODE bar code.
(The unit will beep three times.)
Enter/Exit
Program Mode
3.
Scan by positioning the output window within two inches of each code.
(When the first menu selection has been scanned, the laser will stay on
until the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAM MODE code is scanned again. If
no scanning occurs for 30 seconds while the scanner is in program
mode, the unit will beep three times and all changes made will be lost.
If this occurs, return to Step 1.)
4.
Upon completing the scanning of the appropriate configuration options,
scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAM MODE bar code again. (The new
options will be saved and the scanner is ready for normal operation.)
Note:
While in program mode, the scanner will make a “razz” sound when:
! the bar code it is scanning is not a program mode
code type;
! the feature is not currently supported in the firmware;
! the feature is not supported on the scanner’s hardware
configuration.
The sound serves as an audible indication that the scanner will not
support that feature.
