INTRODUCTION

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

protocols. Since many host systems have unique formats and protocol requirements,

Metrologic provides a wide range of configurable features that may be selected with the

use of this bar code configuration guide.

Once the configuration is completed, the scanner stores the settings in nonvolatile

memory or NOVRAM. NOVRAM saves the settings when the power is turned off.

Symbol Key

*(asterisk) Default Feature

~ (tilde) Feature requires the Multi-Code Configuration Method,

see Bar Code Configuration Methods on page x.

Note

Bar Code Configuration Methods x

BAR CODE CONFIGURATION METHODS

Metrologic scanners can be bar code configured in two ways: the Single-Code Method

and 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(s) for the desired feature(s).

3. Observe a multi-toned, “save setting” beep that indicates 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 “~” 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(s) for the desired feature(s). [1 beep]

4. Scan the Enter/Exit Configuration Mode bar code [3 beeps] and

save new configuration.

Enter/Exit Configuration Mode

³999999

To abort a configuration change, power off the scanner before scanning the

Enter/Exit Configuration Mode bar code.
