Description

ENTER

To display a list of options for a given vertical field
within the Configuration Screen or to select a Main
Menu screen choice, position the cursor on the
desired field and press

ENTER

. ENTER will also

allow you exit from a pop-up window menu.

SPACE BAR

Within the pop-up window menus, an option may
have a left and right bracket before the menu
choice. These options can either be enabled or
disabled. To enable or disable an option, position
the cursor on the menu choice and press the

SPACE BAR

key. When a check mark is within

the brackets, the option is enabled.

Exit

Escape will also allow you to escape out of most
situations.

For a brief description of the function of a vertical
menu, position the cursor on the desired field and
press

F1

. To exit help, press

Choice File

If you are within the Configuration Screen, hitting

F3

puts the reader into Program Mode.

If you are at the Main Menu screen, F3 allows you
to generate a text file, listing all options a particular
configuration file has enabled. For example, if you
want a listing of all the enabled settings your reader
has, refer to Program Mode, Getting Scanner
Settings and Saving Settings to File. Select the
filename from the file list, hit

F3

and a file listing all

enabled choices within that file is created in your
working directory. This file will share the same
filename, except that it will have a .set extension.

F5

Program Scanner

After the desired parameters are selected in the
Configuration Screen, press

F5

to program the

reader to those same settings. (This assumes you
have already entered Program Mode successfully.)

F7

Save Parameters

To save the various parameters selected in the
Configuration Screen, press

F7

. The settings are

then saved in a file for future reference and
programming. When assigning a filename, use the
proper DOS convention. StrataSet automatically
saves the file with the extension .TRK. The file is
saved to the same drive and directory from which
StrataSet is being run.

F9

Return to Main Menu or Delete

File

If you select File List from the Main Menu, you are
able to delete files by hitting

F9

. You will be

prompted to verify your selection (

the process). If you are within the Configuration
Screen, pressing
