What Is Programming Mode?
The scanner must be placed in Programming mode in order to
accept programming commands. You place the scanner in
Programming mode by scanning the SET bar code, which
appears first in each set of programming bar codes in this manual.
While in the Programming mode, the scanner recognizes only the
special programming bar codes contained in this manual.
To understand how the LEDs and beeper behave while the
scanner is in Programming mode, see
“About the Scanner LEDs
and Beeper” on page 6.
What is a Programming Session?
A typical programming session is conducted as follows:
1 Scan the SET bar code at the beginning of each set of
programming bar codes to place the scanner in Programming
mode. The scanner emits three beeps, indicating it has read
the bar code, and the green LED flashes on and off slowly
while the scanner remains in Programming mode. Normal
scanning functions are disabled.
2 Scan the programming bar codes that are specially encoded to
make changes. With few exceptions, the scanner emits a triple
beep each time you scan a valid bar code. Be aware of these
considerations:
Some features, such as Minimum Label Length, require
you to select the label length by scanning a series of single-
digit bar codes. A single good read beep sounds when
scanning these single digits in Programming mode. Only
the final required digit in the sequence produces a triple
beep when scanned, indicating a successfully programmed
feature.
Not all features are available for all interfaces. The scanner
sounds an error tone if you scan programming bar codes
for features invalid to the current interface. Only features
supported by the currently active interface are
implemented.
If you scan a bar code that changes the interface type, all
previous configuration items scanned in the programming
session are lost.
