Using Single Programming Checks
The single programming checks are used in conjunction with the programming pages which
follow these instructions. The single programming checks take the place of scanning bar codes
with a bar code reader, described on page 3.
The following is an example of programming the 8300 to output a Carriage Return suffix for
UPC-A symbology using programming checks.
Note to CMC–7 users: If the SCANTEAM 8300 has been programmed to decode only
CMC–7 characters, you must first set it to decode the E–13B
characters on the Programming Checks. To do so, feed through the
“CMC-7 Conversion” check. The SCANTEAM 8300 temporarily
decodes E–13B characters until the End Programming check has
been read, then the SCANTEAM 8300 reverts to decoding only
CMC-7 characters.
Programming Example
1. Turn to page 11 and review the Output Parameters programming table.
Note that every option in the Programming Menu begins with an “Enter” bar code. Page 11
shows the Output Parameters Enter bar code. The programming check with the option
name (e.g., Output Parameters Enter) is your “Enter” code.
To program a carriage return suffix (for UPC-A symbology), you must use the OUTPUT
PARAMETERS ENTER, XI, 6, 3, 0, D, F, F, and EXIT checks.
2. Have available the programming checks for OUTPUT PARAMETERS ENTER,
XI, 6, 3, 0, D, F, Exit, and End Programming.
3. Feed the OUTPUT PARAMETERS ENTER check into the check reader.
After you hear 2 beeps and the LED displays a P, the SCANTEAM 8300 is ready to accept
the variables for your output parameters.
4. Feed through the XI, 6, 3, 0, and D checks.
Note: Each time a variable check is fed through, you should hear a single beep from the
reader. If an error occurs during programming, you will not get an error beep
sequence (3 beeps) until the End of Programming check has been read.
5. Feed the F check through two times.
6. Feed through the Exit check.
7. Feed through the End Programming check.
Two beeps and an O in the LED display means the programming was successful.
If you hear 3 beeps after feeding through the End Programming check, a programming
error has occurred. Begin the programming again, starting with the Output Parameters
check.
Using the method just described, program the parameters necessary for your SCANTEAM
8300. Begin at page 9 if you need to program the Terminal ID, or at page 10 if you programmed
your Terminal ID with a Plug-n-Play check.
