Miscellaneous Scanner Options 14-3
Introduction
This chapter includes commonly used bar codes to customize how data is transmitted to the host device. See Chapter 15, Advanced
Data Formatting for further customization options.
The digital scanner ships with the settings shown in the Miscellaneous Scanner Options Default Table on page 14-4 (also see
Appendix A, Standard Default Parameters for all host device and miscellaneous scanner defaults). If the default values suit
requirements, programming is not necessary.
To set feature values, scan a single bar code or a short bar code sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are
preserved even when the digital scanner is powered down.
Most computer monitors allow scanning the bar codes directly on the screen. When scanning from the screen, be sure
to set the document magnification to a level where the bar code can be seen clearly, and bars and/or spaces are not
merging.
If not using a Synapse or USB cable, select a host type (see each host chapter for specific host information) after the power-up beeps
sound. This is only necessary upon the first power-up when connected to a new host.
To return all features to default values, scan the *Set All Defaults bar code on page 4-5. Throughout the programming bar code menus,
default values are indicated with asterisks (
*
).
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases, scan one bar code to set a specific parameter value. Other parameters, such as Prefix Value , require scanning several
bar codes. See each parameter for descriptions of this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
