Multiple Image Scanner Operation; Image Scanner Name - Honeywell 4820HDHM User Manual

Multiple Image Scanner Operation

Note: Multiple Image Scanner Operation Mode allows you to link up to 7 image
scanners to one base. You cannot join an 8th image scanner until you
unlink one of the 7 image scanners or take an image scanner out of
range.
To put the image scanner in multiple image scanner mode, scan the barcode
below. Once you scan this barcode, the image scanner is unlinked from the
base and must be placed into the base to re-link.

Image Scanner Name

You may assign a name to each image scanner you are using. When you have
multiple image scanners linked to one base, you may want to name each image
scanner so you will be able to control the image scanner receiving imaging com-
mands sent from the base.
The default name for a 4820 is "4820," and "4820i" for a 4820i. If you have more
than one image scanner linked to a base, and they all have the default names,
the first image scanner linked to the base receives commands. You can change
the name of an image scanner using a serial command (refer to
Scanner Name" on page 12-9) or using a barcode command. To change the
name serially, unlink all except one of the image scanners from the base. Send
":4820:BT_NAM name ." or ":4820i:BT_NAM name .", where name is the new
image scanner name. If you wish to change the names of additional image
scanners, re-link them one at a time and repeat the ":4820:BT_NAM name ." or
":4820i:BT_NAM name ." command for each image scanner.
