Chapter 1 - System Information
1.1 About this manual
This User's Guide provides detailed programming instructions. Barcode
scanners are factory programmed for the most common communication
setting. If you need to change these settings, programming is accomplished
by scanning the bar codes in this guide.
1.2 How to set up the parameter -I
(1) Scan Start Configuration
(2) Scan all necessary labels for parameters that meet your applications.
(3) Scan End Configuration to end the programming.

Check Version
An asterisk (*) next to an option indicate the default setting.

1.2 How to set up the parameter - II
Most of time the scanner only requests one read of parameters when
changing to new values. You will hear two beeps when you successfully
set to the new values. But for some special parameters, multiple reads are
needed to complete the configuration. When use these special
parameters. In some cases, you might need to read one or more barcodes,
such as:
 Hexadecimal barcodes. For example: prefix, suffix, etc.
 Numeric barcodes. For example: inter-character delay, max/min length
To complete the change of setting you will need to read the “Confirm”
barcode after you read the parameter. Below is the flow chart to explain
two different configurations.

2.2 String Options (Prefix & Suffix)
This section describes the alterations which can be made to the format of
the transmitted data string. A prefix and suffix of maximum 10 direct
input may be included in front and at the end of scanned barcode.
Format
{Prefix} {Code ID} {Bar Code} {Suffix}
How to set up a prefix?
To configure “## “as prefix
(1) Scan Start Configuration barcode
(2) Scan Preamble bar code
(3) Scan ‘#” twice from FULL ASCII table
(4) Scan Confirm configuration barcode
(5) Scan End Configuration barcode.
How to set up a suffix?
To configure “$$” as suffix
(1) Start configuration barcode
(2) Scan Postamble barcode
(3) Scan ‘$” twice from FULL ASCII table
(4) Scan Confirm configuration barcode
(5) Scan End configuration barcode.

2.3 Setup Insertion
This section describes how to setup the insertion of output.
NOTE :
 Max. 10 charters can be inserted each time
 Max. Insertion group is only two.
 Insertion group (01) or (02) can be used in different kinds of
barcodes at the same time

Example:
:
To insert character “A” before the third digit(3)
Make the decoded data: 12A3456789
How to set up a character you want to insert
(1) Scan Start Configuration barcode
(2) Scan “G1 Insertion character”
(3) Scan “4” and “1” from FULL ASCII Table
(4) Scan Confirm configuration barcode
(5) Scan End configuration barcode
How to set up position you wish to place the character
(6) Scan Start Configuration barcode
(7) Scan “G1 Character Position”
(8) Scan “0” and “3” from FULL ASCII Table (which presents the position)
(9) Scan Confirm configuration barcode
(10) Scan End configuration barcode
How to set up insertion for code 39
Go to chapter 3.5 (code 39)
(11) Scan Start Configuration barcode
(12) Scan “Insert group selection” bar code
(13) scan “0” and “1” from FULL ASCII Table
(which presents the group- 01 you just set up previously)
(14) Scan Confirm configuration bar code
(15) Scan End configuration barcode
