Introduction

Your new scanner has been factory configured with a set of default

parameters. Since many host systems have unique formats and protocol

requirements, GoDEX provides a wide range of configurable features that

may be selected using this bar code based configuration tool. Once the

configuration is completed, the scanner stores the settings in nonvolatile

memory (NOVRAM). NOVRAM saves the settings when the power is off.

Note:Bar code descriptions marked with an asterisk ( * ) define a feature that

is a factory default. Bar codes marked with a tilde ( ~ ) require the

Multi-Code configuration method.

Bar Code Configuration Methods

The GS220 scanner can be bar code configured in two ways: the Single-Code

Methodand the Multi-Code Method.

Single-Code Method

Most features can be enabled or disabled using the Single-Code Method.

1. Power-up the scanner.

2. Scan the bar code for the desired feature.

3. The scanner will emit a multi-toned beep to indicate the configuration

has been saved to NOVRAM.

Multi-Code Method

All features can be enabled or disabled using the Multi-Code Method.

A feature marked with a tilde ( ~ ) requires the Multi-Code Method.

1. Power-up the scanner.

2. Scan the enter/exit configuration mode bar code (3 beeps).

3. Scan the bar code for the desired feature (1 beep). Multiple features

can be enabled/disabled before scanning the enter/exit configuration

mode bar code.

4. Scan the enter/exit configuration mode bar code (3 beeps) and save

the new configuration. To abort a configuration change, power off the

scanner before scanning the enter/exit code.

Need To Start Over?

Scan the Recall Defaults bar code to erase all previous settings and return

the scanner to its factory default communication protocol. Keyboard Wedge

interface scanners will load keyboard wedge defaults. All other scanners load

RS232 defaults.
