Programming Session
A typical programming session is conducted as follows:
1. Scan the SWITCH bar code to place the scanner in Programming
Mode. Depending upon its current programming, the scanner may
emit a beep or beeps, indicating it has read the bar code and the
scanner (top) green LED will flash on and off slowly while the scan-
ner remains in Programming Mode. Normal scanning functions are
disabled.
2. Scan the programming bar code(s) that is (are) specially encoded to
make the desired changes. With few exceptions
1
, the scanner will
emit a triple beep each time you scan a valid programming bar code.
Additionally, when programming a feature requiring you to scan single
digits to set a multi-digit number, such as Minimum Label Length, scan-
ning the SWITCH bar code (or any item tag/item value bar code) before
completing all input will result in an error tone and cause the scanner to
exit Programming Mode. Under these circumstances, the current feature
you were trying to set is thrown out; any previous bar codes scanned dur-
ing the session will take effect.
1. Some features, such as Minimum Label Length, require you to select the label’s length by scan-
ning a series of single-digit bar codes. A single ‘good read’ beep is sounded when scanning these
single digits in Programming Mode. Only the final required digit in the sequence will produce a tri-
ple beep when scanned, indicating a successfully programmed feature.
NOTE
Not all features are available for all interfaces and the scanner will sound an
error tone when scanning programming bar codes for features invalid to the
current interface. Only features supported by the currently active interface
will be implemented.
NOTE
If a bar code is scanned that changes the scanner’s interface, all previous
configuration items scanned in the programming session are lost.
