Chapter 11 123Scan
Introduction
This chapter includes the bar code that must be scanned to use the 123Scan program.
123Scan is a Windows
®
based utility that allows the scanner to be setup and programmed with all parameters
including Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) Rules. An ADF rule allows bar code data to be modified before it is sent
on to the host. This ensures compatibility between bar coded data and the host application; the scanner is
programmed rather than modifying the host software. Scanners can be programmed via PC download or by
scanning a sheet of bar codes generated by the utility. Scanner programming is saved in a file that can be
distributed electronically by e-mail. A help file is built into the program 123Scan.
Communication with 123Scan
To communicate with the 123Scan program, which runs on a host computer running a Windows operating system,
use an RS-232 cable to connect the scanner to the host computer (see Connecting an RS-232 Interface on page
6-2).
Following are the 123Scan requirements:
• Host computer running Windows 98, Windows 2000, or Windows XP
• Scanner
• RS-232 cable.
