NOTE
If the barcode cannot be read because of low contrast or excessive ambient light, you can
perform the AutoSetup function to optimize the optical parameters. Then you can perform
AutoLearn to recognize the barcode symbology.
* In case of Programming Barcodes, refer to the “ID-NET™ Programming Barcodes And Setup Procedure” document in the
product CD.
AUTO SETUP (OPTIONAL)
At the end of the
Auto Learn procedure, you can perform the Auto Setup procedure to set up the reading
parameters.
1. Enter the
Auto Setup function by holding the X-PRESS™ push button pressed until the SETUP LED is on.
2. Release the button to enter the
Auto Setup function.
Once entered, if a barcode label is positioned in front of the scanline, the scanner automatically performs the
optimal setup of the reading parameters for that specific barcode.

The procedure is as follows:
A)
place the desired barcode on the scanline.
B)
enter the AutoSetup function (the laser turns on
and the SETUP LED blinks to indicate the
ongoing process)
C)
wait until the SETUP LED stays steady on
(indicating the reader has detected the
barcode)
This procedure ends either when the barcode is successfully decoded or after a timeout of about 7 (seven) seconds.
The scanner will restart at the end of the process, and then the optimized reading parameters for that barcode are
automatically configured in scanner memory.
FOCUS LOCK/UNLOCK
You must perform the
Focus Lock procedure to save the mechanical focus position to memory. If the mechanical
focus position is changed by more than the allowed tolerance of the value in memory, a diagnostic alarm will be
sent to the display.
1. Enter the Focus Lock function by holding the X-PRESS™ push button pressed until the FOCUS LOCK LED is on.
2. Release the button to enter the
Focus Lock function.
Once entered, the scanner automatically performs the Lock (saving) or Unlock procedure depending on the
previous state of the Locked Position parameter.

The procedure is as follows:
A)
enter the Focus Lock function
B)
wait until the "Focus locked at..." message
appears on the display (indicating the focus
position has been saved to memory). The
following parameters are set:
 Locked Position = your mechanical setting
 Focus Displacement (Alarm) = set (default to
display only)
The scanner will restart at the end of the process.
