User Preferences 4-3
Introduction
The Symbol LS9203 scanner can be programmed to perform various functions, or activate different features. This chapter describes
each user preference feature and provides the programming bar codes necessary for selecting these features for the Symbol LS9203
scanner. Before programming, follow the instructions in
Chapter 1, Getting Started .
The Symbol LS9203 is shipped with the settings shown in the User Preferences Default Table on page 4-4 (also see Chapter A,
Standard Default Parameters for all host device and miscellaneous scanner defaults). Programming may not be necessary if the
default values all requirements.
Features values are set by scanning single bar codes or short bar code sequences. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and
are preserved even when the scanner is powered down.
If not using a USB cable, select a host type (see each host chapter for specific host information). After hearing the power-up beeps,
select a host type. This only needs to be done once, upon the first power-up when connected to a new host.
To return all features to their default values, scan the Set All Defaultsbar code on page 4-5 . Throughout the programming bar code
menus, default values are indicated with asterisks (
*
).
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases it is required to only scan one bar code to set a specific parameter value. For example, to set the beeper tone to high,
simply scan the High Frequency (beeper tone) bar code listed under
Beeper Tone on page 4-6 . The scanner issues a short high beep
and the LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters, such as specifying Serial Response Time-Out or setting Data Transmission Formats, require scanning several bar
codes. Refer to
Host Serial Response Time-out on page 6-25 and Scan Data Transmission Format on page 10-10 for descriptions of
this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, if an error is made during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
