STEP 3 – X-PRESS™ CONFIGURATION
X-PRESS™ is the intuitive Human Machine Interface designed to improve ease of installation and maintenance.
Status and diagnostic information are clearly presented by means of the five colored
LEDs, whereas the single push button gives immediate access to the following relevant
functions:
• Test Mode (F1) with bar graph visualization to check static reading
performance
• AutoLearn (F2) to self-detect and auto-configure for reading unknown barcodes
(by type and length)
• AutoSetup (F3) to self-optimize and auto-configure reading performance in
demanding applications
NOTE
If using the OM2000N accessory, when entering the X-PRESS™ interface, the Oscillating Mirror
remains in the default fixed position (-15°) in order to make barcode reading easier while
performing the X-PRESS™ functions.
The colors and meaning of the five LEDs are illustrated in the following table:
F4 READY (green) This LED indicates the device is ready to operate.
F3 GOOD (green) This LED confirms successful reading.
F2 TRIGGER (yellow) This LED indicates the status of the reading phase.
F1 COM (yellow) This LED indicates active communication on main serial port.
F0 STATUS (red) This LED indicates a NO READ result.
During the reader startup (reset or restart phase), all the LEDs blink for one second.
On the back of the reader near the cable, the “POWER ON” LED indicates the laser scanner is correctly powered.
AUTO LEARN
If you are configuring your scanner using X-PRESS™, you must start with the Auto Learn procedure.
1. Enter the Auto Learn function (F2) by pressing the X-PRESS™ push button.
2. Hold the push button pressed until the F2 LED is on.
3. Release the button to enter the Auto Learn function.
Once entered, the reader starts a procedure to automatically detect and recognize barcodes (by type and
length), which are presented to it (*). The laser turns on and the TRIGGER LED blinks to indicate the ongoing
process.

The procedure is as follows:
A) place the desired barcode on the scanline.
B) wait until the TRIGGER LED stays steady on
(indicating the reader has detected the
barcode).
C) repeat, if needed, the above two steps to
program up to 10 different barcodes (either by
length or by symbology). If more than one
barcode is detected, the Multi Label mode is
enabled (refer to the “2000 Family Software
Configuration Parameter Guide” Help file).
