Chapter 11 123Scan
Introduction
This chapter includes the bar code to scan to use the 123Scan program.
123Scan is a Windows ® based utility that enables programming the scanner with all parameters including
Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) rules. An ADF rule modifies bar code data before it transmits to the host. This
ensures compatibility between bar coded data and the host application; the scanner is programmed rather than
modifying the host software. Program scanners via PC download or by scanning a sheet of bar codes generated by
the 123Scan utility. Scanner programming is saved in a file for electronic distribution. 123Scan includes a help file.
Communication with 123Scan
To communicate with the 123Scan program, which runs on a host computer running a Windows operating system,
use an RS-232 cable to connect the scanner to the host computer (see
6-2).
123Scan requirements are:
•
Host computer running Windows 98, Windows 2000, or Windows XP
•
Scanner
•
RS-232 cable.
