Introduction
There are 2 ways to program (con
fi
gure) the scanner, Code Programming and Command Programming.
Code Programming
The scanner reads a set of specially encoded barcodes to program options and features. In the following
sections, we will explain the options and features available and provide the barcodes to program them.
This method of programming the scanner is most straight forward. However, it requires manually readings of
each barcode. As all manual operations, errors are more likely to occur.
Command Programming
The Host can send the Pro CMD strings to program the scanner. In the following sections, the Pro CMD
strings will be included with the barcodes for Code Programming.
This method of programming the scanner could be automated. A software program can be developed to
download all the con
fi
guration data to the scanner. The program can also verify the download.
Note: Except some temporary programming, the programming results are restored in non-volatile memory.
They will not be lost when the scanner is powered off.
