— five minutes have passed without scanning activity. Any data pro-
grammed during the current session will be ignored, and the scanner
will reset and revert to its condition previous to initiating the exited ses-
sion.
— power is disconnected. Disconnecting power during Programming
Mode, before scanning the Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code, will
cause all new settings to be ignored

. On power-up, the scanner will
return to previous settings.
4. Maintain a good record of all changes made to ensure that you know if the
original factory settings have been changed.
Programming Sequence
To modify a scanner feature (item), the programming bar codes contained in
this manual must be scanned in a given sequence depending upon the feature
being programmed (as shown in Table 2 ). There are three possible program-
ming sequences:
A. Programming sample A (the most commonly used format) demonstrates
how three bar codes are scanned in sequence to do the following:
1.Place the scanner in Programming Mode (Enter/Exit Programming Mode
bar code).
2.Scan the Item Tag that will enable the new feature.
3.End the programming session and reset the scanner (Enter/Exit Pro-
gramming Mode bar code).
B. Sample B provides an example of a programming feature requiring the
entry of a range value. Like sample A, the scanner is placed in Program-
ming Mode and an Item Tag1 is scanned. Then, a value must be entered
before ending the programming session. In the example, three digits must
be scanned from the number pad in Appendix C . This type of format,
requiring several bar codes, is necessary to allow flexible programming for
item values with larger numeric ranges.
1. Exception: If an interface bar code had been read while in Programming Mode, the
scanner will operate on the default settings for the new interface.
NOTE
If the scanner’s interface type must be changed, always be sure that
interface configuration is the FIRST item scanned during a program-
ming session. (Selecting an interface type resets ALL other configura-
tion items to the stored values for that interface type.)
NOTE
Unless otherwise directed, item value settings (for example, label
lengths) are entered as decimal numbers. Only enter values as hexa-
decimal when instructed to do so.
