Programming the Reader

Configuration Methods

Programming Bar Codes
The reader is factory-configured with a standard set of default features.
After scanning the interface bar code, you can select other options and cus-
tomize your reader through use of the instructions and programming bar
code labels available in the corresponding features section for your inter-
face. Customizable settings for many features are found in
Parameters"
Some programming labels, like
require only the scan of the single label to enact the change. Most, however,
require the reader to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning
them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code once to enter Programming Mode. Once
the reader is in Programming Mode, scan a number of parameter settings
before scanning the ENTER/EXIT bar code a second time, which will then
accept your changes, exit Programming Mode and return the reader to nor-
mal operation.
Datalogic Aladdin™
Datalogic Aladdin™ is a multi-platform utility program providing a quick and
user-friendly configuration method via the RS-232/USB-COM interface.
Aladdin is available on the CD-ROM provided with your product, and also
from the Datalogic website. Aladdin allows you to program the reader by
selecting configuration commands through a user-friendly graphical inter-
face running on a PC. These commands are sent to the reader over the
selected communication interface, or they can be printed as bar codes to be
scanned.
Aladdin also provides the ability to perform a software upgrade for the con-
nected device (see the Datalogic Aladdin™ Help On-Line for more details).
