  • Page 5: Introduction

    Introduction This manual contains instructions for changing interfaces and bar codes for customizing the scanner's operation. Since the QuickScan 6000/6000 Plus scanner contains software enhancements and characteristics that set it apart from other scanners, it is recommended that this guide be used as the sole source of programming labels and information (except for other QuickScan 6000/6000 Plus product-specific publications).

  • Page 6: Changing Interfaces

    Changing Interfaces To change a scanner's interface… Hardware If necessary, replace the scanner's interface cable to match the new host terminal's connection requirements. To disconnect the cable from the scanner, insert a .050” hex driver or bent paper clip into the CABLE RE- LEASE hole, and press down to unlock the cable connector.

  • Page 8: Customizing Your Scanner Operation

    Customizing Your Scanner Operation When enabling a new interface, it may be necessary to modify the original factory settings to match your specific host system's communication and symbology requirements. Check with your system administrator to identify your host system's specific interface requirements to ensure that they match the new interface you've selected.

  • Page 9: Programming Overview

    Programming Overview This section describes how to set the scanner's programmable features. These features can be configured using the bar code labels contained in this manual or by using commands sent from the host. Refer to Appendix A, Additional Information, for host programming details.

  • Page 10: The Programming Session

    The Programming Session It is possible to program multiple features during a single programming session (a programming session is defined as the period of time between scanning the “set” label and scanning the “end” label). However, it is recommended that sessions be limited to one feature, as it can be difficult to discover where an error has been made, should you make a mistake in the programming sequence.

  • Page 11: If You Make A Mistake

    If You Make a Mistake... If, during a programming session, you find that you are unsure of the scanner's settings or wish to reset the scanner's configuration, use the Return to Factory Settings label on this page to return the scanner's configuration to the factory settings. Scanning this label will also reset any changes made during previous programming sessions.

  • Page 12: Where To Go From Here

    Where To Go From Here Programming is easy and straightforward if you follow these steps: If you are changing interfaces, first connect the scanner to the new host using the new interface cable. Scan the interface enable bar code label Scan any feature labels that are unique to the interface you are currently programming.

NOTE These features are only available with RS-232, Wand Emulation and Keyboard Wedge host interfaces. WARNING DO NOT use Very Low Power Mode in conjunction with Stand Mode, as this feature is not compatible and may cause unexpected behavior.

  • Page 90: Debug Mode

    Debug Mode When enabled, this mode will cause any product labels that are read to be discarded with no attempt made to transmit them to a host. Any host scanning control will also be disabled while this option is in effect. This mode may be enabled in conjunction with any of the defined host interfaces.

    If you require more information about using your host system to change the scanner's programmable features or detailed instructions about creating multifunction labels, contact your local dealer or distributor or call (in the U.S. or Canada) Datalogic Technical Support at 1-800-547-2507.
