ABOUT THIS MANUAL

information, including connection, programming, maintenance and specifications. The
Quick Reference Guide (QRG) and other publications associated with this product are

Typically, units are factory-programmed for the most common terminal and communi-
cations settings. If you need to modify any programmable settings, custom configura-
tion can be accomplished by scanning the programming bar codes within this guide.
Programming can alternatively be performed using the Datalogic Aladdin™ Configura-
tion application, which is available from the Datalogic website listed on the back cover
of this manual. This multi-platform utility program allows device configuration using a
PC. It communicates to the device using a serial or USB cable and can also create config-
uration bar codes to print.
