Introduction - IDTECH ValueScan III User Manual

1. Introduction

Your VALUESCAN III is a 1D CCD scanner that has been
configured at the factory with default settings.
Because many host systems have unique formats and
protocol requirements, ID TECH provides a wide range of
configurable features that may be selected using this
bar-code-based configuration tool. After the
configuration is completed, the scanner stores the
settings in nonvolatile memory. The embedded memory
saves the settings when the power is turned off.
Turn off the computer's power before connecting the
scanner, and then power up the computer after the
scanner is fully connected.
To change a parameter value, scan the appropriate bar
codes in this guide. These new values replace the default
values in memory.
NOTE: Most computer monitors allow uses to scan bar
codes directly from the screen. When scanning from a
screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a
level where you can see the bar code clearly and bars
and/or spaces are not merging.
