Counters
You can access
Counters
from the
Utilities
menu.
Counter commands can be a numeric value from 00000 to 65,535. After reaching
the maximum numeric limit of 65,535, an error message will be displayed and the
counter will automatically rollover and start counting again at 00000. To obtain the
cumulative total of counts after the rollover has occurred, add 65,536 per each roll-
over (the scanner does not keep track of the number of rollovers) to the current
count.
Note:
All counter values will be lost if power is recycled to the scanner or the scan-
ner receives a reset or save command.
