listed in your software version, select Other and enter the scanner input module ID code (13608)
at the prompt on the I/O configuration display.

Enter the number of scanned words.
Reference
Enter the number of Scanned Input and Output Words using the Specialty I/O and Advanced Setup
menus. The default value is 32 I/O words. You can specify less than 32 and reduce the processor
scan time by transferring only the part of the input and output image that your application requires. It
is important that you do not set either of these values to 0. If you do, the scanner will not work
correctly.
