CHAPTER 13 SYMBOLOGIES
Introduction
This chapter describes symbology features and provides programming barcodes for selecting these features.
Before programming, follow the instructions in Chapter 1, Getting Started.
To set feature values, scan a single barcode or a short barcode sequence. The settings are stored in non-volatile
memory and are preserved even when the digital scanner powers down.
Select a host type (see each host chapter for specific host information) after the power-up beeps sound. This is
only necessary upon the first power-up when connected to a new host.
To return all features to default values, see Default Parameters on page 6-5. Throughout the programming barcode
menus, asterisks (
*) indicate default values.
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases, scanning one barcode sets the parameter value. For example, to transmit barcode data without the
UPC-A check digit, simply scan the Do Not Transmit UPC-A Check Digit barcode under Transmit UPC-A Check
Digit on page 13-17. The digital scanner issues a fast warble beep and the LED turns green, signifying a successful
parameter entry.
Other parameters, such as Set Length(s) for D 2 of 5 require scanning several barcodes. See the individual
parameter, such as Set Length(s) for D 2 of 5, for this procedure.
NOTE Most computer monitors allow scanning the barcodes directly on the screen. When scanning from the
screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the barcode clearly, and
bars and/or spaces do not merge.
