Overview
This appendix contains information about programmable settings for the
Falcon. Use the Falcon Configuration Utility in
or the bar codes
provided in
to program the Falcon.
provides the following information:
z
Code Parameter
is the “human” name for the programming option.
z
I.D. #
is the “decoder” name for the programming option. For example,
to set a Code 39 minimum label length, use I.D. #
01
. Programming
I.D. numbers given in this appendix can be used with all programming
methods.
z
Type
tells what kind of setting to use for each code parameter.
z
On/Off
is a toggle.
1
turns the parameter on, and
0
turns it off.
z
Value
requires a two-character entry (e.g.,
02
for two beeps after
each good read).
z
Acceptable Input
gives the settings or range of settings for each code
parameter.
z
Defaults
tells how the parameter is set when the predefined default
D0
,
D1
, or
D2
is selected.
z
Predefined Default 0 (
D0
)
turns every on/off parameter off and
sets all minimum and maximum lengths to the lowest values.
z
Predefined Default 1 (
D1
)
turns every on/off parameter on, sets all
minimum lengths to the lowest values, and sets all maximum lengths
to the highest values. This default set is normally used only for
troubleshooting. It gives the best chance of reading an unknown bar
code symbology and also identifies the symbology of each bar code
scanned.
z
Predefined Default 2 (
D2
)
is the default set that was installed in
the Falcon at the factory. This default set will work for most
applications. To reset the Falcon to the original defaults, scan the
D2
bar code on
.
