ONFIGURATION
4. During configuration, the motor and laser turn off. YOU CANNOT SCAN A
BAR CODE WHILE IN SERIAL CONFIGURATION MODE.
5. There is a 20 second window between commands. If a 20 second timeout
occurs, the scanner will send a [nak] and you must start over.
6. To enter serial configuration mode, send the following command
[stx]999999[etx].
7. To exit serial configuration mode, send the following command
[stx]999999[etx], the scanner will respond with an [ack] followed by 3 beeps.
8. This mode uses the current Baud Rate, Parity, Stop Bits and Data Bits
settings that are configured in the scanner. The default settings of the
scanner are 9600, Space, 2, 7 respectively. If a command is sent to the
scanner to change any of these settings, the change will NOT take effect
until after serial configuration mode is exited.
EXAMPLE #2:
The following example will set the scanner to the factory default settings,
Disable Scanning of Code 128 bar codes, change the beeper tone, and add
a "G" as a configurable prefix.
FEATURE
Enter Configuration Mode
Load Defaults
Disable Code 128
Alternate Tone 1
Configure. Prefix #1
Code Byte 0
Code Byte 7
Code Byte 1
Exit Configuration Mode
The scanner will beep three times!
The commands sent to the scanner do not include the small superscripted
'3' that you see in front of each bar code string in the MetroSelect manual.
THE '3' SHOULD NOT BE SENT. IT IS A CODE TYPE DESIGNATION
ONLY!
As you will note for commands requiring additional bar codes to be scanned
(such as prefixes, suffixes, timeouts, etc.), simply send the code bytes in the
same order that you would normally scan the bar codes.
