Using the Programming Bar Codes
This manual contains feature descriptions and bar codes which allow you to reconfigure
your reader. Some programming bar code labels, like Resetting the Product Configura-
tion to Defaults on page 10
Most of the programming labels in this manual, however, require the reader to be placed
in Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code once to
enter Programming Mode. Once the reader is in Programming Mode, you can scan a
number of parameter settings before scanning the ENTER/EXIT bar code a second time,
which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode and return the reader to
normal operation.
NOTE
Select the Interface Type
Upon completing the physical connection between the reader and its host, proceed directly to Interfaces on page 11 for information and programming for the interface type
the reader is connected to (for example: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, USB, etc.) and scan
the appropriate bar code in that section to select your system’s correct interface type.
Setting Up the Reader
, require only the scan of that single label to enact the change.
There are some exceptions to the typical programming
sequence described above. Please read the description and
setting instructions carefully when configuring each given programmable feature.
Configure Interface Settings
The reader is typically factory-configured with a set of default features standard to the
interface type you ordered. If after scanning the interface bar code from the Interfaces
section, your installation requires you to select options to further customize your reader,
turn to the appropriate section for your interface type as listed below:
• RS-232 ONLY Interface, starting on page 37
• RS-232/USB-Com Interfaces, starting on page 43
• Keyboard Interface, starting on page 53
USB-OEM Interface, starting on page 65

The software version of the device can be transmitted over the RS-232 and Keyboard interfaces by scanning the following label.
Resetting the Product Configuration to Defaults
If you aren't sure what programming options are in your reader, or you've changed some
options and want to restore the Custom Default Configuration that may have been saved
in the reader, scan the Restore Custom Default Configuration bar code below. This will
restore the custom configuration for the currently active interface.
Custom defaults are based on the interface type. Configure
the reader for the correct interface before scanning this label.
NOTE
If you aren't sure what programming options are in your reader, or you've changed some
options and want to restore the Factory Configuration, you have two options. You can
scan the Restore USA Factory Configuration bar code or the Restore EU Factory Con-
figuration
bar code below. Both labels restore the reader configuration to the factory settings including the interface type. The USA label restores Label IDs to those historically
used in the USA. The EU label restores Label IDs to those historically used in Europe.
The Label ID sets for USA and EU are shown in the Label ID section of this manual.
The programming section lists the factory default settings for each of the menu commands (indicated by shaded blocks and bold text) on the following pages.

Unlike some other programming features and options, interface selections require that you scan only one programming
bar code label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code prior to
scanning an interface selection bar code.
Some interfaces require the reader to start in the disabled state
when powered up. If additional reader configuration is desired
while in this state, pull the trigger and hold it for five seconds.
The reader will change to a state that allows programming with

Data Editing Overview
When a bar code is scanned, additional information can be sent to the host computer along
with the bar code data. This combination of bar code data and supplementary user-defined data
is called a “message string.” The features in this chapter can be used to build specific userdefined data into a message string.
There are several types of selectable data characters that can be sent before and after scanned
data. You can specify if they should be sent with all symbologies, or only with specific symbolo-

Set Global Mid Label ID Character(s)
Specifies a mid-label ID that is added for transmission between the labels of a two label pair.
The expected string is a maximum of 20 characters. When combining two label pairs into a single label for transmission to the host, this label ID can be added to the data, following the first
label and preceding the second label. To set this feature...
1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code.
2. Determine the desired character(s) (you may choose up to twenty) which will represent
the Mid Label ID for two label pairs. If the first character is 00, then nothing is added
between the two labels.
ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE
3. Turn to the
ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual and find the equivalent
hex digits associated with your choice of Label ID. For example, if you wish to select the
characters ‘M’, ‘I’ and ‘D’ as a Label ID, the chart indicates its associated hex characters as
4D4944. Turn to
Keypad, starting on page 297 and scan the bar codes representing
the hex characters determined. For the example given, the characters ‘4’, ‘D’, ‘4’, ‘9’, ‘4’
and ‘4’ would be scanned. More examples of Label ID settings are provided in
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar
code to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at
the beginning.
NOTE
4. The reader will save the string and exit Programming Mode when...
• the ENTER/EXIT baqr code is scanned a second time, or
• the hex values for all twenty available characters have been entered, or
• the first 00 hex value entered terminates the string.
This completes the steps to configure a Global Mid Label ID for two label pairs.
