Chapter 10 Miscellaneous Scanner Options
Introduction
This chapter includes commonly used bar codes to customize how your data is transmitted to your host device. In
addition to these bar codes for data formatting, refer to each host chapter for the appropriate host connections and
host device features for your scanner. Refer to Chapter 9, Symbologies and the Advanced Data Formatting
Programmer Guide for customizing data for transmission to your host device.
Before programming, follow the instructions in Chapter 1, Getting Started.
Your scanner is shipped with the settings shown in the Miscellaneous Scanner Options Default Table on page 10-2
(also see Appendix A, Standard Default Parameters for all host device and miscellaneous scanner defaults). If the
default values suit your requirements, programming may not be necessary. Features values are set by scanning
single bar codes or short bar code sequences.
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases you need only scan one bar code to set a specific parameter value.
Parameters, such as Prefix Value, require that you scan several bar codes in the proper sequence. Refer to each
individual parameter for descriptions of this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, if you make an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
Miscellaneous Default Parameters
Table 10-1 lists the defaults for miscellaneous scanner options parameters. If you wish to change any option, scan
the appropriate bar code(s) provided in the Miscellaneous Scanner Parameters section beginning on page 10-3.
NOTE See Appendix A, Standard Default Parameters for all user preferences, hosts, symbologies, and
miscellaneous default parameters.
