Configuration Menus

The workstation uses menus to make configuration parameters accessible and
easy to change. They were designed to be entered, changed and exited by
pushing various keys on the keypad. It is also possible to access the menus
through the communications port using host commands. See section
“Menu 2: Comm Port Menu Parameters”.

In order to access the menus, press the menu trigger keys (Enter and Right
Arrow simultaneously). If a program is loaded, the trigger keys must be held
down while power is removed and then reapplied.

The first menu is the Network Menu and it looks like the display in Figure
5.1.

When the IN key is pressed, it will allow you to scan the six major menus,
one at a time. They are:

1. Network Menu

2. Comm Port Menu

3. System Menu

4. Bar Code Menu

5. Read Only Menu

6. Diagnostics Menu

From the Diagnostics Menu, pressing <IN> one more time will cause the
Network Menu to reappear. By pressing <OUT> you can scan backwards or
you can select the desired menu by pressing the appropriate menu number.
For example, if the Comm Port Menu is showing on the display, you can get
to the Diagnostics Menu simply by pressing the <6> key. The Diagnostics
Menu will now appear on the display.
