Programming Session
A typical programming session is conducted as follows:
1. Scan the SWITCH barcode to place the scanner in Programming
M
ode. Depending upon its current programming, the scanner
may emit a beep or beeps, indicating it has read the barcode and
the green LED will flash on and off slowly while the scanner
remains in Programming Mode. Normal scanning functions are
disabled.
2. Scan the programming barcode(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
barcod
e.
NOTE
Not all features are available for all interfaces and the scanner w
ill sound
an error tone when scanning programming barcodes for features invalid to
the current interface. Only features supported by the currently active inter-
face will be implemented.
NOTE
If a barcode is scanned that changes the scanner’
s interface, all previous
configuration items scanned in the programming session are lost.
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 barcode (or any item tag/item value barcode) before
completing all input wi
ll 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 barcodes 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 barcodes. A single ‘good read’ beep is sounded when scanning these
sing
le digits in Programming Mode. Only the final required digit in the sequence will produce a tri-
ple beep when scanned, indicating a suc
cessfully programmed feature.
