  • Page 10: 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 11: 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. If you program the scanner using these bar codes, the scanner stores the changes until repro- grammed.
  • Page 12: 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 13: If You Make A Mistake

    If you don't have a record of your site/system's original configuration, you may need to call your nearest PSC service depot for assistance to return the scanner to normal function. Please be prepared to provide information about the store/chain, location, POS system and other pertinent information about the scanner being repaired.
  • Page 14: Where To Go From Here

    Once the necessary changes have been made, and you have scanned the END label, you are ready to scan. This step is not neccessary for QuickScan 1000 scanners, unless you require a specific interface sub-type such as SNI or IBM sub-type 4682/92 Port E. Interface software is automatically selected when the QuickScan 1000 hardware connection (via a new interface cable) is made.

    Handshaking Review your system documentation to identify handshaking requirements, and use these labels to change the settings if required. The following brief descriptions explain each selection. Hardware Control CTS/RTS Flow Control — is hardware handshaking. The scanner activates the RTS (Ready to Send) line when it is ready to send data to the host.
  • Page 24: Software Control

    Software Control — this is software handshaking that allows the host to control data transmission. If the host sends an X command to the scanner, the scanner will not send the bar code data until it receives an X command from the host.
  • Page 25: Intercharacter Delay

    Intercharacter Delay Intercharacter Delay refers to the pause, if any, between each character before it is sent to the host. This time delay is used to control the flow of data from the scanner, but it should not be required for most applications. Use these labels to select the desired Intercharacter Delay.

Symbology-specific label identifiers comprise one or two ASCII characters that can precede or follow barcode label data as it is transmitted to the host. The host uses these characters as a means of distinguishing between symbologies. Industry standards have been established for symbology-specific label identifiers, and are listed in the table below.

  • Page 60: Price/Weight Check Digit

    Price/Weight Check Digit The price/weight check digit selections allow you to specify whether the scanner should calculate an extra check digit based on a four or five-digit price/weight block and compare it with the price/weight check digit contained in the bar code. If the calculated check digit does not match the value of the check digit contained in the bar code, the label will be rejected as invalid.
