About This Manual
This manual presents advanced user information which includes connection, programming,
product and cable specifications, and other useful references. For additional information, such
as installation, maintenance, troubleshooting and warranty information, see the Quick Reference Guide (QRG). Copies of other publications for this product are downloadable free of
charge from the website listed on the back cover of this manual.
On leaving the factory, units are programmed for the most common terminal and communications settings. If you need to change these settings, custom programming can be accomplished
by scanning the bar codes in this guide.

The scanner kit you ordered to match your interface should provide a compatible cable for your
installation. Use the appropriate instructions below to connect the scanner to the terminal, PC
or other host device.
Upon completing the connection via the appropriate interface instructions below, proceed to

Programming
The scanner is typically factory-configured with a set of default features standard to the interface
type you ordered. After scanning the interface bar code from the
tion, you can select other options and customize your scanner through use of the instructions
and programming bar codes available in that section and also the
chapters of this manual.
Using the Programming Bar Codes
This manual contains feature descriptions and bar codes which allow you to reconfigure your
scanner. Some programming bar code labels, like the label below for resetting defaults, require
only the scan of that single label to enact the change. Most of the programming labels in this
manual, however, require the scanner to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning
them. Scan a START/END bar code once to enterProgramming Mode. Once the scanner is in
Programming Mode, you can scan a number of parameter settings before scanning the START/
END bar code a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode
and return the scanner to normal operation.

Resetting the Standard Product Defaults
If you are unsure of what programming options are in your scanner, or you’ve changed some
options and want the factory settings restored, scan the Standard Product Default Settings bar
code below (you do not have to scan START/END bar codes when scanning the Standard Product Default Settings bar code). This will copy the factory configuration for the currently active
interface to the current configuration.
The programming section lists the factory default settings for each of the menu commands for
the standard RS-232 interface in

LED and Beeper Indicators
The scanner’s beeper sounds and its green LED illuminates to indicate various functions
or errors on the scanner. The tables below list these indications. One exception to the
behaviors listed in the tables is that the scanner’s functions are programmable, and may
or may not be turned on. For example, certain indications, such as the power-up beep
can be disabled using programming bar code labels.

The Beeper will sound as programming bar code labels are
scanned, indicating progress during scanner configuration.
Error Codes
Upon startup, if the scanner flashes its indicator LED or sounds an unexpected series of beep
tones (other than normal power-up indications), this means the scanner has not passed its automatic Selftest and has entered FRU
pressed, the sequence will be repeated. The following table describes the LED flashes/beep codes
associated with an error found.
