Using a Bar Code Scanner
A bar code scanner attached to a serial port can be used for message lookup, that is, load-
ing a message for printing, or to insert variable field data into a printing message.
•
Command & Control:
When this function is utilized, the controller will use predefined
scripts to modify various parameters of the controller. (See the Software Interface Doc-
ument, item number 5760-113.)
•
Message Look Up
: When used for message lookup, a scanner attached to COM1 will
load print messages
only
into Task 1, and a scanner attached to COM2 will load print
messages
only
into Task 2. To configure a serial port for message lookup, select
Mes-
sage Look Up
as the port device and set the baud rate to match that of the scanner.
NOTE
: The name of the print message scanned must
exactly
match the name of a print
message stored in the IJ3000. If it does not, or no message with the name scanned
exists, the current print message is cancelled and printing stops.
•
Variable Field Data Input
: When used to input variable field data, a scanner (or scale,
or other external device) on either serial port will work with messages printing on either
task. The serial port used must match the one specified when the message and vari-
able field are created (see
Variable Field
in
Section 6, Message Functions
). To config-
ure a serial port for variable field data input, select
External Input
as the port device
and set the baud rate to match that of the device.
•
SATO 8485SE:
When this function is utilized, the controller will communicate to a PA/
5000LT with a Sato 8485SE print engine when adding an element to a message. (See
Section 6: Message Functions
.)
•
Tharo CAB:
When this function is utilized, the controller will communicate to a PA/4500
when adding an element to a message. (See
Section 6: Message Functions
.)
Network Setup
If the IJ3000 system is being used in a network application, the factory programmed net-
work settings may need to be changed. If the network application is not being utilized, this
section can be skipped.
To display the Network Setup screen:
1. On the Home Screen, touch the
Con-
trol Panels
button to open the Control
Panels Menu.
2. Touch the
Network
button on the Con-
trol Panels Menu to open the Network
Setup screen.
The controls on the Map Network Device
page of the Network Setup Screen apply
only if the IJ3000 is running on a network
controlled by a PC using the IJ3000 net-
work software.
