SSI Interface
253
Setting Parameters
This section describes how to set up the scanner with an SSI host. When using SSI, program the scanner via
barcode menu or SSI hosts commands.
The scanner ships with the settings shown in Table 17 on page 254 (also see Parameter Defaults for all defaults).
If the default values suit requirements, programming is not necessary.
To set feature values, scan a single barcode or a short barcode sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile
memory and are preserved even when the scanner powers down.
To return all features to default values, scan Set Factory Defaults on page 59. Throughout the programming
barcode menus, asterisks (
*) indicate default values.
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases scanning one barcode sets the parameter value. For example, to set the baud rate to 19,200, scan
the Baud Rate 19,200 barcode under Baud Rate on page 255. The scanner issues a fast warble beep and the
LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters require scanning several barcodes. See the parameter descriptions for this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
NOTE: Most computer monitors allow scanning barcodes directly on the screen. When scanning from the
screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the barcode clearly, and
bars and/or spaces do not merge.
