Configuration: AUX Terminal Data Entry

Publication 2755-833

Note: If either the external selector or the the internal selector is
set to data entry, the decoder will be in manual data entry mode,
and will not display the Configuration screens.

After switching to manual data entry mode, you can:

Display bar code data, decoder performance indicators, counter
data, and host messages on the AUX terminal.

Enter data at the AUX terminal keyboard.

Both of these operations are controlled by parameters on the AUX
and LCD Display Format
and AUX Terminal Data Entry
configuration screens. The parameters defining display parameters
are discussed in Chapter 9.

The sections that follow show how these parameters directly affect
the display of data on the AUX terminal, and control the type of data
entry operations that are allowed at the AUX terminal.

This section shows how to configure the AUX terminal for display
operations. You can configure the AUX terminal to display:

Bar code data

Decoder performance indicators

Counter data

Host messages

The parameters on the AUX and LCD Display Format
configuration screen determine what data is displayed, where the
data is displayed, and on which device. Detailed definitions of these
parameters appear in Chapter 9.
