Symbologies 12-5
Introduction
This chapter describes symbology features and provides the programming bar codes for selecting these features.
Before
programming, follow the instructions in
Chapter 1, Getting Started .
The scanner is shipped with the settings shown in the Symbology Parameter Defaults on page 12-6 (also see Appendix A,
Standard
Default Parameters
for all host device and miscellaneous 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 scanner is powered down.
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 appropriate default bar code on page 4-5 . Throughout the programming bar
code
menus, default values are indicated with asterisks (
*
).
* Indicates Default
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases, scanning one bar code sets the parameter value. For example, to transmit bar code data without the UPC-A check
digit,
simply scan the Do Not Transmit UPC-A Check Digit bar code under
Transmit UPC-A Check Digit on page 12-13 . The scanner
issues
a fast warble beep and the LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters, such as Set Length(s) for D 2 of 5, require scanning several bar codes. See the individual parameter, such as
Set
Length(s) for D 2 of 5, for this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
