OCR Programming
306
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases scanning one barcode sets the parameter value. For example, to enable OCR-B, scan the Enable
OCR-B barcode under OCR-B on page 309. 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.
OCR Parameter Defaults
Table 24 lists the defaults for OCR parameters. Change these values in one of two ways:
• Scan the appropriate barcodes in this chapter. The new value replaces the standard default value in
memory. To recall default parameter values, see
Default Parameters on page 59.
• Configure the scanner using the 123Scan
configuration program. See 123Scan and Software Tools.
NOTE: See Parameter Defaults for all user preference, host, symbology, and miscellaneous default
parameters.
