Symbologies
Introduction
This chapter describes symbology features and provides the programming bar codes for
selecting these features. Before programming, follow the instructions in Chapter 2, Get-
ting Started
.
The scanner is shipped with the settings shown in Table 23 on page 96 (also see Appen-
dix B, Standard Defaults
for all host device and miscellaneous defaults). If the default
values suit requirements, programming is not necessary.
To set feature values, scan a single bar code or a short bar code sequence. The settings are
stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the scanner is powered
down.
If not using a USB cable, select a host type (see each host chapter for specific host infor-
mation) after the power-up beeps sound. This is only necessary upon the first power-up
when connected to a new host.
To return all features to default values, scan the appropriate default bar code on page 21.
Throughout the programming bar code menus, default values are indicated with asterisks
(*).
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases, scanning one bar code sets the parameter value. For example, to transmit
bar code data without the UPC-A check digit, simply scan the Do Not Transmit UPC-
A Check Digit bar code under Transmit UPC-A Check Digit on page 104. The scanner
issues a fast warble beep and the LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters, such as Set Length(s) for D 2 of 5, require scanning several bar codes.
See the individual parameter, such as Set Length(s) for D 2 of 5, for this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan
the correct parameter.
