Programming the PowerWedge 10
On-Screen Programming
NOTE
19
The following bar code provides an example of batch programming. Scan-
ning it will turn off the autoterminator and set the maximum length for
Interleaved 2 of 5 labels to 15.
*$+$-B1%U0A35EE*
Like all Code 39 bar codes, this one starts and ends with an asterisk (*).
$+$- starts programming mode. B1 specifies the autoterminator parame-
ter, and %U is the Code 39 equivalent of the null character, which turns it
off. 0A specifies the Interleaved 2 of 5 maximum-length parameter, and
15 sets it to 15 characters per label. EE saves the new settings and exits
programming mode.
This programming method lets you display programming parameters and
settings on your screen. You can select parameters and change their set-
tings using the computer's keyboard.
To program the PowerWedge 10 on-screen . . .
For on-screen programming of the PowerWedge 10 Serial model, you must
use a communications program (such as Procomm). Be sure the decoder's
serial parameters settings (baud rate, parity, etc.) match the settings of the
communications program.
For keyboard wedge installation, on-screen programming is available via
cable 00-001-00 for AT-compatible computers, or cable 00-061-00 for PS/2
style computers.
1. Open a text editor (for example, the DOS EDIT utility), or go to
the DOS prompt.
2. If you are using a text editor, use Courier or another monospaced
font. If you are programming from the DOS prompt, type copy con
nul and press
