Visual Menu 2003
Visual Menu 2003 Introduction
Visual Menu 2003 provides the ability to configure a scanning device by
connecting the scanner to the com port of a PC. Visual Menu 2003 allows you
to download upgrades to a scanner’s firmware, change programmed
parameters, and create and print programming bar codes. Using Visual Menu
2003, you can even set up the configuration for a scanner which is not attached
to your PC. This enables one expert user to establish the configuration settings
for all the devices your company uses, then save these configuration files for
others. A configuration file can be e-mailed or, if you prefer, an expert user can
create a bar code (or series of bar codes) that contains all the customized
programming parameters, and mail or fax the bar code(s) to any location. Users
in other locations can scan the bar code(s) to load in the customized parameters.
To communicate with a scanner, Visual Menu 2003 requires that the PC have at
least one available serial communication port and an RS-232 cable to connect
the port to the device. A power supply, which plugs into the cable, is also
required.
Note: IT5620/IT2020 works only with Visual Menu 2003 version 4.2 or later.
Visual Menu 2003 Operations
The Visual Menu 2003 program performs the following operations:
• Displays all configuration data, and saves the information to a file on your
PC.
• Configures the device to meet your specific requirements. Visual Menu
2003 has all the programming parameters which are available via
programming bar codes in this User’s Guide.
• Creates and prints a clone bar code which contains the program and
configuration data from one device. This bar code can then be used to
program additional devices with the same parameters.
• Selects a device from a list, then performs offline or online file
configuration for that device.
