4.0 Additional Menu Bar Options
Besides the View Menu, explained previously, the menu bar contains two additional menu selections. The
Imager Menu includes setup items that allow you to specify bar code decode/display options and image
capture display options. The Tools Menu contains action menu items, such as Firmware Revision, Flash New
Firmware, Low Power Idle, Recycle Connection, Send Command, and Save As Command.
Note: If you change an option in one of the dialog boxes, tap Apply and then tap OK in the upper, right hand
corner. If you change an option and tap OK without selecting Apply, a dialog asks if you want to save your
changes.
4.1 Imager Menu
Reset Imager to Defaults
When this menu item is selected, the imager configuration is reset
to the default values stored in the engine firmware. This option
resets imaging, decoding, and power conservation options.
Power Management
Selecting this menu item causes the Power Management dialog to
be activated. This dialog allows you to specify the idle power usage
mode and/or modify some operating parameters for imaging. In
addition, CPU and system clock rates can be altered. Altering these
items can reduce power consumption.
IMPORTANT!
The Power Management settings above should not be changed
except by advanced users with a complete knowledge of the result
or under the direction of Socket Technical Support.
