Barcode Programming Manual

The FuzzyScan barcode commands are specially designed

Proprietary barcode labels which allow you to set the

FuzzyScan internal programming parameters. There are

System Command, Family Code and Option Code for

programming purpose.

Each programmable family and barcode command label is

listed on the same page with major system commands. The

detailed explanations and special programming flowchart are

printed on facing or following pages. You can read the

explanation and set the FuzzyScan concurrently.

A supplemental barcode command menu incorporates the

barcode command labels of System Command and Option

Code. As you set the FuzzyScan, open the barcode

command menu to find the option code page. You may scan

the desired family code and option code to set FuzzyScan. If

you want to change the programming family for multiple

settings, you need only turn over the programming page to

find next desired programming family.

System Command

The System Command is the highest level barcode

command which directs FuzzyScan to perform immediate

operations, such as entering programming mode

(PROGRAM), exiting programming mode (EXIT), listing

system information (SYSLIST), recovering to factory

preset configurations (M_DEFAULT) and so on. Please

note that all system commands will take a few seconds to

complete the operations. User must wait for the

completion beeps before scanning another barcode.

Family Code

The Family Code is scanned to select the user desired

programming family. FuzzyScan has already provided

more than one hundred programming families to meet any

specific requirements.

Option Code

The Option Codes is a set of barcode commands

represented by “0–9”, “A–F” and finishing selection (FIN).

For most setting, you must select at least one option code

following the family code selection to set the desired

parameter for the selected programming family.

FuzzyScan

Programming Manual

Configuring Your Scanner

Programming Procedures

As you scan the barcode command to select the desired

parameters, information about the final selected

parameters represented by the barcode commands are

stored in the FuzzyScan’s internal Flash Memory ASIC or

memory. If you turn off the unit, the Flash Memory ASIC or

non-volatile memory retains all programming options. You

need not re-program the FuzzyScan if you want to keep the

existing configurations in the next power on.

The programming procedures of FuzzyScan are designed

as simple as possible for ease of setting. Most

programming families take the Single Scan Selection

programming procedure. But several programming families

have more complex and flexible programmable options,

and you must take Multiple Scans Selection, Cycling

Scan Selection or Dual Level Selection to complete their

programming procedures. Each kind of programming

procedure is listed in the following pages for your reference.

Please give careful attention to become familiar with each

programming procedure.

If the programming family must take multiple scans

selection, cycling scan selection, or dual level selection

procedures, the family of the programming menu will be

marked with the matched representing symbol of

Programming Category (P.C.) in bold font listed in the

following table. You can easily find the bold mark in the

programming menu, and refer to their flowcharts for details.

Before setting the FuzzyScan, please also refer to the

“Beeping Indications” listed in Appendix to understand the

details of programming beeping indications. It will be very

helpful for you to know the existing status while you are

programming the FuzzyScan.

Scan

“END”

FuzzyScan will exit programming mode, and store all

parameters in Flash Memory ASIC or non-volatile memory,

then issue the completion beeping.

Scan

“PROGRAM”

FuzzyScan will enter programming mode,

and inhibit all non-programming functions.

Scan

“SYSLIST”

FuzzyScan will list the product information and

revision number to host via selected host interface,

then issue the completion beeping.

Scan

“M_DEFAULT”

FuzzyScan will recover all programmable

parameters into factory preset configurations,

then issue the completion beeping.

Program & End

Please note that the FuzzyScan will take 3-4 seconds to

store parameters in internal Flash Memory ASIC or

non-volatile memory after you scan the “END”. Please

don’t turn off the power before the completion beeping. It

may destroy all configured parameters.

 Code 39 Security Level

The scanner offers four levels of decode security for Code39 barcodes:

Level 0: If you are experiencing misread of poorly-printed or serious out-of-spec. barcodes in level 1, please select level 0.

Level 1: If you are experiencing misread of poorly-printed or out-of-spec. barcodes in level 2, please select level 1.

Level 2: This is the default setting which allows the scanner to operate fastest, while providing sufficient security in decoding “in-spec” Code39 barcodes.

Level 3: If you failed to read poorly-printed or out-of-spec. barcodes in level 2, please select level 3. This is the most aggressive setting and may increase the misread.
