First-time Setup
Every application is unique. Axiom is designed for ease-of-setup, allowing you
to program the reader to fit your application seamlessly.
Axcess Setup Software for Axiom
,
functioning under the familiar Windows®
operating system on your PC, is the tool you will use to define operating
parameters, set bar code type / length, and construct output messages,
including filtering, stripping and padding capabilities. Axcess enables you to
easily configure, fine-tune, and monitor your Axiom’s operations.
Axcess provides ease-of-use regardless of your experience with bar code
readers. A beginner follows basic setup procedures for a standard
configuration. If you are more experienced, use the advanced setup features
that allow access to more complex options. In either case, the user-friendly
Axcess Wizard efficiently guides you through a sequence of screens until the
Axiom is configured to fit your application.
Reference the Axcess for Axiom Setup Software Manual for further information.
