Page 8: Scanning Bar Codes
5. SCANNING BAR CODES Operating Procedure (1) Turn on the PC. (Wait until the system is set up.) (2) Run an application program (e.g., Microsoft® Excel) to be used for barcode data entry. (3) Bring the reading window to a bar code to be scanned and align the center mark with the center of the bar code. -
Page 9: Setting Parameters
6. SETTING PARAMETERS You may easily set parameters for communications conditions, readable bar codes, transmission formats and others, by using bar-coded parameter menus. Settings made from the bar-coded parameter menus will be retained even after the PC is turned off. To scan bar codes given in those bar-coded parameter menus, press the trigger switch. -
Page 10: Parameter Setting Procedure
6.1 Parameter Setting Procedure Using bar-coded parameter menus (See Note 1.) Scan the “Start setting” bar code. The beeper sounds three times. ↓ Scan necessary parameter setting bar codes. The scanner beeps once and turns the ↓ LED indicator on. Scan the “End setting”... - Page 11 Parameter Setting Flow for Sections 6.2 to 6.5 Start "Start setting" Beeps 3 times. "All defaults" (See NOTE below.) Set communication conditions. (See pp. 9 to 13.) Set transmission format. (See pp. 14 to 24.) Set readable codes. (See pp. 25 and 26.) Set other parameters.
