Customizing Bar Code Record Data Entry

When using the Hand Held Products (HHP) Scan Gun with the medTester,
you may need to configure the scanner depending on whether or not you are
using it with the optional keyboard. This is accomplished by scanning
different bar codes in the Scanner’s Users Guide. If you don’t have a hard
copy of the guide for the IT3800LR, you can get it from their web site at

www.handheld.com

, print the pages as needed, and then scan the barcodes.

To program the Scanner for use with or without keyboard, scan the
appropriate barcode on the Users Guide page indicated in the following table.

The scan for using the keyboard includes a CR suffix on each barcode read.
CR is a carriage return that acts the same as pressing ENTER, thus finishing
entering the text in to the medTester. You might not want CR added to each
scan is you want to scan multiple barcodes on a single line. Then you need to
have a CR on the last scan or press ENTER. You can program the CR
separately using the scans listed in the following table.
