Honeywell 1300g Barcode Reader User Manual


 
1 - 5
The best focus point for reading most code densities is about 5 inches (12.7 cm)
from the unit. To read a single bar code or multiple bar codes (on a page or on
an object), hold the scanner at an appropriate distance from the target, pull the
trigger, and center the aiming beam on the bar code.
Menu Bar Code Security Settings
Honeywell scanners are programmed by scanning menu bar codes or by send-
ing serial commands to the scanner. If you want to restrict the ability to scan
menu codes, you can use the Menu Bar Code Security settings. Contact Tech-
nical Support (seeCustomer Support on page 12-1) for further information.
Setting Custom Defaults
You have the ability to create a set of menu commands as your own, custom
defaults. To do so, scan the Set Custom Defaults bar code below before each
menu command or sequence you want saved. If your command requires scan-
ning numeric codes from the back cover, then a Save code, that entire
sequence will be saved to your custom defaults. Scan the Set Custom
Defaults code again before the next command you want saved to your custom
defaults.
You may have a series of custom settings and want to correct a single setting.
To do so, just scan the new setting to overwrite the old one. For example, if you
had previously saved the setting for Beeper Volume at Low to your custom
defaults, and decide you want the beeper volume set to High, just scan the Set
Custom Defaults bar code, then scan the Beeper Volume High menu code.
The rest of the custom defaults will remain, but the beeper volume setting will be
updated.
Resetting the Custom Defaults
If you want the custom default settings restored to your scanner, scan the Acti-
vate Custom Defaults bar code below. This resets the scanner to the custom
default settings. If there are no custom defaults, it will reset the scanner to the
factory default settings. Any settings that have not been specified through the
custom defaults will be defaulted to the factory default settings.
