Newland Auto-ID Support Center
If you have a problem with your equipment, contact the Newland Support Center in your region. Before call-
ing, have the model number, serial number, and several of your barcodes at hand.
Call the support Center from a phone near the scanning equipment so that the service person can try to talk
you through your problem. If the equipment is found to be working properly and the problem is barcode
readability, the Support Center will request samples of your bar codes for analysis at our plant.
If your problem cannot be solved over the phone, you may need to return your equipment for servicing. I f
that is necessary, you will be given specific directions.
Note: Newland Auto-ID Tech. is not responsible for any damages incurred during shipment.

Introduction
There are 2 ways to program (configure) the scanner, Code Programming and Command Programming.
Code Programming
The scanner reads a set of specially encoded barcodes to program options and features. In the following
sections, we will explain the options and features available and provide the barcodes to program them.
This method of programming the scanner is most straight forward. However, it requires manually readings of
each barcode. As all manual operations, errors are more likely to occur.
Command Programming
The Host can send the Pro CMD strings to program the scanner. In the following sections, the Pro CMD
strings will be included with the barcodes for Code Programming.
This method of programming the scanner could be automated. A software program can be developed to
download all the configuration data to the scanner. The program can also verify the download.
Note: Except some temporary programming, the programming results are restored in non-volatile memory.
They will not be lost when the scanner is powered off.

Code Programming
Read the “Code Programming ON”barcode to activate “Code Program-
ming”function. More than one Code Programming barcodes can be read to
configure the scanner.
If an option or feature needs additional parameters, such as digits, they can be
found at the end of this chapter.
The value of code programming can be sent to the Host. For factory default,
“No Send Pro Code Value”, the value of programming codes will not be
sent to the Host; by reading “Send Pro Code Value”, the reader will send the
value of Programming Code to the Host.
Code Programming ON
【Pro CMD：99900031】
No Send Pro Code Value
【Pro CMD：99900033】
Code Programming OFF
【Pro CMD：99900032】
Send Pro Code Value
【Pro CMD：99900034】
The factory default setting is “Code Programming ON”. Because it has low probability that a data
barcode is the same as a programming barcode, it doesn’t need to close the function of Code Program-
ming. Keeping it on won’t affect the daily using.
Some working parameters could be programmed. The data type of parameters is Dec or Hex and the numbers
are also input through programming barcodes. The Appendix of the Integration Guide includes all needed
data barcodes.
Programming barcodes are used to program the scanner. For factory default, the reader will not send code
value to the Host. But if needed, the scanner could be programmed to "Send Pro Code Value". And whether
the value is sent or not won't affect the programming function. But "Send Pro Code Value" is a temporary
setting. It will restore to "No Send Pro Code Value" when the scanner is restarted or closed.
