4 Parameter menus
4-1 Introduction
This section describes the programmable parameters, provides barcodes for programming, and
hexadecimal equivalents for host parameter programming through SCI.
The scanner is shipped with the factory default settings as described in this chapter. These
factory-default-settings values are stored in flash memory and are preserved even when the scanner is
powered down. Changes to the factory default values can be stored as custom defaults. These values
are also stored in flash memory and are preserved even when the scanner is powered down.
There are two methods to change the parameter values as described following.
Scan the appropriate barcodes as the example shown in the following Section of
“4-2 Instruction:
configure scanner by scanning configuration barcodes”
. The new values replace the existing
memory values.
Referring to the section of
“11 Return default parameters & firmware version”
, scan the Write to
custom default setting (%%WCDF) barcode to set the new values as custom defaults. The factory
default or custom default parameter values can be recalled by scanning the Restore factory defaults
(%%%DEF) barcode, or the Restore custom default setting (%%RSDF) barcode.
Send parameters through the scanner’s serial port using the SCI command PARAM_SEND. The
parameters are described in details in later sections of this chapter. Instructions for changing
parameter value using this method can be found in the section of
“5-13 PARAM_SEND”
.
Note: When the scanner is scanning, ensure the laser beam crosses every bar and space of the barcode.
See Figure 4-1.
