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
reprogrammed.
What Is Programming Mode?
To change the scanner's programmed settings, it is necessary to place the
scanner in Programming Mode using the special SET label. This ensures
that the scanner only recognizes the special programming labels con-
tained in this programming guide.
How To Program Using Bar Codes
The following pages contain special bar code labels that are used to
change or enable the scanner's programmable options. All programming
sessions follow this order, unless otherwise instructed:
1. Scan the SET label at the top of the page. The scanner will
emit a 'good read' beep, indicating it has read the label.
2. Scan the feature label(s) for the programmable options
you wish to enable. With few exceptions
emit a triple beep each time you scan a valid programming
label. (Note that not all features are available for all inter-
faces and that the scanner will sound an error tone when
scanning programming labels for features invalid to the
current interface.)
3. Scan the END label at the bottom of the page to complete
the programming session and exit Programming Mode. The
scanner will sound one 'good read' beep upon exiting
Programming Mode.
4. Maintain a good record of all changes made to ensure that
you know if the original factory settings have been changed.

Some features, such as Minimum Label Length or Label ID, require you to select the length
by scanning a series of single-digit bar codes. A single 'good read' beep is sounded when
scanning these single digits in Programming Mode. Only the final required digit in the
sequence will produce a triple beep when scanned, indicating a successfully programmed
feature.
