EZConfig-Scanning Introduction
EZConfig-Scanning provides a wide range of PC-based programming functions that can be performed on a scanner connected
to your PC. EZConfig-Scanning allows you to download upgrades to the scanner's firmware, change programmed parameters,
and create and print programming bar codes. Using EZConfig-Scanning, you can even save/open the programming parameters
for a scanner. This saved file can be e-mailed or, if required, you can create a single bar code that contains all the customized
programming parameters and mail or fax that bar code to any location. Users in other locations can scan the bar code to load in
the customized programming.
EZConfig-Scanning Operations
The EZConfig-Scanning software performs the following operations:
Scan Data
Scan Data allows you to scan bar codes and display the bar code data in a window. Scan Data lets you send serial
commands to the scanner and receive scanner response that can be seen in the Scan Data window. The data dis-
played in the Scan Data window can either be saved in a file or printed.
Configure
Configure displays the programming and configuration data of the scanner. The scanner's programming and configu-
ration data is grouped into different categories. Each category is displayed as a tree item under the “Configure” tree
node in the application explorer. When one of these tree nodes is clicked, the right-hand side is loaded with the
parameters' form belonging to that particular category. The Configure tree option has all the programming and config-
uration parameters specified for a scanner. You can set or modify these parameters as required. You can later write
the modified settings to the scanner, or save them to a dcf file.
