COMMON SYMBOLOGY PROPERTIES
Symbology properties are unique for each session. Symbology properties begin
with “sessionX.scanner.SSS” where X is 1 through 4 and SSS represents a
symbology name and may be 3 or more characters long. For example
“session4.scanner.upca.enabled”. If no ‘X’ value is found, the currently active
session number is used. See the Symbology Names table below for SSS values.
NOTE: If you are changing the scanner properties for the currently activesession,
you must call CETerm.PostIDA( “IDA_SCAN_APPLYCONFIG”, 0 ); for
the changes to take effect.
WARNING: Not all properties are applicable to all hardware devices or all
symbologies. Different devices may use different names to refer to the
same parameters. You should look at the settings available in the
CETerm configuration dialogs to determine if the property is
appropriate and what values it may accept. This is also true for the
symbologies that a device supports. You may be able to successfully
change a parameter that is not supported on a device.
