INTRODUCTION
WEDGE PROGRAMING MODE OVERVIEW
To program your scanner with the Wedge features
go to Section 1 – Wedge Programming, and follow
these procedures:
1. To enable Wedge Programming Mode,
scan the START bar code on page 14.
(The green LED indicator lamp will flash
continuously from BRIGHT to DIM,
indicating the scanner has entered the
Wedge Programming Mode).
2. Scan the desired bar codes labels in the
Wedge programming section of this
guide, pages 16 through 47. (The scanner
will emit a "good read" beep to indicate
each successful bar code read).
3. After all desired programming param-
eters have been entered using the bar
codes, exit the Wedge Programming
Mode by scanning the END bar code on
page 14. (The scanner LED then transi-
tions to a steady ON light to indicate the
scanner is operational).

INTRODUCTION
SCANNER PROGRAMMING MODE OVERVIEW
To change the features on your scanner, go to
Section 2 – Scanner Programming and scan the
desired bar codes, using these procedures:
• Enable the Scanner Programming Mode by
scanning the SWITCH bar code on page
52. (The LED indicator lamp will flash
continuously ON and OFF to indicate the
scanner has entered the Scanner Programming Mode).
• Scan the bar code labels on pages 55
through page 70, to enable or disable the
desired features. (The VS and HS scanners
will beep once at each scan to indicate a
"good read", whereas, the Duet will emit
multiple beep tones).).
• Scan the SWITCH bar code on page 52 a
second time to Exit the Scanner Programming Mode. (The scanner will reset, emit
a single power-up beep, and the LED
transitions to a steady ON condition).
R44-2006 5
INTRODUCTION
Wedge programming bar code labels
use Code 39 symbology (C39). Factory
configuration has C39 enabled as a
default. If C39 has been disabled in the
scanner configuration, you must reenable C39 in order to program the
wedge interface.
OTHER FEATURES
NOTE
The wedge interface is able to support multiple
functions such as Editing Mode, which allows the
bar code data to be altered before sending it to the
host terminal. This feature can be set to require
certain conditions be present in the bar code data
(matching characters), and allows the addition of
preambles and/or postambles.
These features are supported in the Advanced
Keyboard Wedge Programming Guide, (R44-2007),
available from your PSC dealer or distributor.

KEYBOARD-WEDGE PROGRAMMING
INTRODUCTION
In Keyboard-Wedge Mode the scanner is connected
between the keyboard and the computer (or terminal). Data is emulated by the scanner as if it was
typed on the keyboard.
COMMUNICATION CABLE
Before Keyboard-Wedge programming can begin, a
special cable must be installed between the scanner
and the computer or Host Terminal. Follow the
procedures, below, to install this cable:
1. Turn off power to your computer or
terminal.
2. Unplug your keyboard cord from your
computer or terminal and plug it into the
female connector of the short branch of
the Y cable. (See Figure 1).

CLONING MODE
This mode can be very useful when a number of
scanners have to be programmed with the same
parameter values.
It permits a quick duplication of a complete
configuration from an operational scanner
(source) to a scanner which has to be programmed
(target).
INSTALLATION
To install the Cloning Mode feature follow these
procedures:
a) Program and test a scanner on your appli-
cation to set up a scanner-source then
disconnect it from the application.
b) Connect the cable of the target scanner
with the cable of the source scanner using
cable P/N:6015-0487.
c) Plug a DC power supply adaptor into
each scanner (source and target).
d) Turn on the two scanners.

Label identifiers consist of one or two ASCII
characters that can precede or follow barcode label
data as it is transmitted to the host. The host uses
these characters as a means of distinguishing
between symbologies.
The established industry standards used are symbology-specific label identifiers, and are listed in
the table below.
SETTING LABEL I.D.
UPC-A .......................... 'A' EAN-8 (5 Add-on) ......... 'FF'
UPC-E .......................... 'E' EAN-8 (8 Add-on) .......... 'FF'
EAN-8........................... 'FF' EAN-13 (2 add-on) ......... 'F'
EAN-13......................... 'F' EAN-13 (5 Add-on) ......... 'F'
UPC-A (2 add-on) ....... 'A' EAN-13 (8 Add-on) .......... 'F'
UPC-A (5 Add-on)....... 'A' Code 39.......................... '*'
UPC-A (8 Add-on)....... 'A' Codabar ..................... '%'
UPC-E (2 add-on) ....... 'E' Interleaved.2 of 5............. 'i'
UPC-E (5 Add-on)....... 'E' Code 93..................... '&'
UPC-E (8 Add-on)....... 'E' Code 128 ......................... '#'
EAN-8 (2 add-on) ....... 'FF' MSI/Plessey .................. '@'
NOTE
Enabling Label I.D's to be transmitted will not allow programming
of the Wedge. You must disable Label I.D. (If previously enabled)
before programming the Wedge Interface.
