1. INTRODUCTION
Scanning a series of programming bar code labels can
configure the series scanners. 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 adapter must be used to supply DC power to the
scanner. If a keyboard emulation type scanner is used
with an IBM PC/XT/AT, PS/2 or any fully compatible
computers, power will be drawn from the keyboard p ort.
No external power adapter is required. If keyboard
emulation type scanner is used with any other non IBM
PC compatible computers, an external power adapter
may be needed.
During the programming mode, the laser 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 laser 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
barcode symbology.

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 laser scanner is in programming mode.

SCANNING MODE SELECTION (for laser scanner)
For series laser scanners, there are 3 scanning modes to suit
your application requirements.
Trigger Mode
Pulse Mode
SCANNING MODE SELECTION (For CCD scanner)
The scanner becomes inactive
as soon as the data is
transmitted. It must be
triggered to become active
again.
The scanner will light up when
press the pulse mode trigger
switch once. And, the
scanner will turn off for next
pressing.
The scanner becomes inactive as
soon as the data is transmitted. It
must be triggered to become
active again.
In auto scan mode, the scanner is
still active after the data is
transmitted, but the successive
transmission of the same bar code
is not allowed when the trigger
switch is pressed again.
This scanner will light up when
press the scanner trigger switch
once. And, the scanner will turn
off for next pressing.
This mode is similar to Auto scan
mode, but double reading for the
same barcode is prohibited if the
scanner switch is pressed.

INTER-MESSAGE DELAY
These series of scanners allow you to add a delay
between two consecutive messages. This delay will be
added before each data transmission.

INTER-CHARACTER DELAY
This option governs delay time between consecutive
characters. Scanning the following labels can alter the
delay time.
None

20 msec
50 msec
MESSAGE/BLOCK MODE SELECTION
This option allows you to treat scanned data as either an
independent message or a block message. In the
message mode, the data scanned will be transmitted
immediately. In block mode, the data scanned will be
appended to the message buffer if the scanner is
programmed in block mode. A block of message will
only be transmitted after a “Send” command is entered.
This mode is only available when the scanner is working
with code 39 labels. You are free to choose any
character as the “ Send” command.
