Customizing Configuration Settings

Using the Programming barcodes

This manual contains feature descriptions and barcodes which allow you to

reconfigure your scanner. Some programming barcode labels, like

"Resetting the

Product Configuration to Defaults"

on page 15, require only the scan of that single

label to enact the change. M

ost of the programming labels in this manual, how-

ever, require the scanner to be placed

in Programming Mode prior to scanning

them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT barcode once to enter Programming Mode. Once the

scanner is in Programming Mode, you can scan a number of parameter settings

before scanning the ENTER/EXIT barcode a second time, which will then accept

your changes, exit Programming Mode and return the scanner to normal oper-

ation.

NOTE

There are some exceptions to the typ

ical programming sequence

described above. Please read the description and setting instructions

carefully when configuring each given programmable feature.

Datalogic Aladdin™ Utility

Programming can alternatively be performed using the Datalogic Aladdin™

Configuration application which is available for free download from the Data-

logic website listed on the back cover of this manual. This multi-platform utility

ogram allows device configuration using a PC. It communicates to the device

using a serial or USB cable and can also create configuration barcodes to print.

Datalogic Aladdin™ is a multi-platform utility program providing a quick and

use

r-friendly configuration method via the RS-232/USB-COM interface. The

Aladdin utility is available on the Datalogic website. Aladdin allows you to pro-

gram the scanner by selecting configuration commands through a user-friendly

gra

phical interface running on a PC. These commands are sent to the scanner

over the selected communication interface, or they can be printed as barcodes

to be scanned.

Aladdin also provides the ability to perform a software upgrade for the con-

nected device (see the Datalogic Aladdin™ Help On-Line for more details).
