Introduction to Label Programming
The programming bar code labels contained in this manual will allow you to
customize and configure features and settings for your scanner (scanner/
scale). To ensure full compatibility and proper function, use only the program-
ming bar codes in this manual and other product-specific publications to pro-
gram scanner features.
This manual has been developed to make it quick and easy for users of all lev-
els to find the information needed to understand and configure features. The
following descriptions will help you to determine where to go from here.
Understanding the Basics
If you have little or no prior experience with programming using bar code
labels, you should review the first few pages of this section to familiarize your-
self with the basics of scanner programming before performing any changes to
your configuration.
Using the Programming Bar Codes
The scanner is typically factory-configured with a set of default features stan-
dard to the interface type you ordered. After scanning the interface bar code
from the Interface Related Features section, you can select other options and
customize your scanner through use of the instructions and programming bar
codes available in that section and also the Data Editing and Symbologies chap-
ters of this manual.
This manual contains feature descriptions and bar codes which allow you to
reconfigure your scanner. Some programming bar code labels, like the label
below for resetting defaults, require only the scan of that single label to enact
the change. Most of the programming labels in this manual, however, require
the scanner to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan a
Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code once to enter Programming Mode.
Once the scanner is in Programming Mode, you can scan a number of parame-
ter settings before scanning the Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code a sec-
ond time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode and
return the scanner to normal operation.
