Symbol Technologies DS6708 - Manual (Page 155)

Scanner Emulation Interface 11 - 5
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.
