1. INTRODUCTION

The series Bar Code Wand scanners can be

configured by scanning a series of programming

bar code labels. This allows decoding options and

interface protocols to be tailored to a specific

application. The configuration is stored in non-

volatile memory and will not be lost by removing

power from the scanner.

The scanner must be properly powered before

programming. For RS-232C type scanners, an

external power adaptor must be used to supply DC

power to the scanner. If a keyboard emulation

type scanner is used with a IBM PC/XT/AT, PS/2 or

any fully compatible computers, power will be

drawn from the keyboard port. No external power

adaptor is required. If keyboard emulation type

scanner is used with any other non IBM PC

compatible computers, an external power adaptor

may be needed.

During the programming mode, the scanner will

acknowledge a good and valid reading with a short

beep. It will give long beeps for either an invalid

or bad reading.

2. PROGRAMMING OPTIONS

Programmable options are divided into four groups.

The first group includes the options that show the

general behavior of the scanner. The second

group of options governs the operation of RS-232C

type serial ports. The third group selects the

keyboard type that the keyboard emulation type will

be emulated. The last group sets the decoding

parameters for each bar code symbology.

3. DEFAULT PARAMETERS

This table gives the default settings of all the

programmable parameters. The default settings

will be restored whenever the "Reset" programming

label is scanned and the scanner is in

programming mode.

•The reading of the "RESET " label turns all the

parameters back to default values.

•When you intend to turn your scanner back to

default parameter, please scan the "Start of

configuration" label first, then scan "RESET"

label and finally scan the "End of configuration"

label.
