ACK NAK Retry Count
This feature specifies the number of times the scanner retries a label transmission due 
to a retry condition. The selectable range is from 1 to 254 retries. A selection of 0 dis-
ables the count, and a selection of 255 specifies unlimited retries.
To set this feature:
1. Determine the desired setting.
2. Pad the number with leading zeroes to yield three digits. For example: 0 = 000, 5 = 
005, 20
 = 020, etc.
3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to enter Programming 
Mo
de.
4. Scan the bar code: SELECT ACK NAK RETRY COUNT SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate three digits from the keypad in 
Appendix D, that represent 
the number which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep 
indic
ation after the last character.
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit Programming Mode.
This completes the procedure. See the table below for examples of how to set this fea-
ture.
Table 9 - ACK NAK Retry Count Setting Examples
NOTE: If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL 
bar code to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at 
the beginning.
