NOTE

Using the Programming Bar Codes

This manual contains feature descriptions and bar codes which allow you to
reconfigure your reader. Some programming bar code labels, like
Product Configuration to Defaults"
gle label to enact the change. Most of the programming labels in this manual,
however, require the reader to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scan-
ning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code once to enter Programming Mode.
Once the reader is in Programming Mode, you can 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
normal operation.
There are some exceptions to the typical programming sequence described above. Please read the
description and setting instructions carefully when configuring each given programmable feature.
NOTE
HP Configuration Utility
Programming can alternatively be performed using the HP Configuration utility
available for download from the HP support website www.hp.com/support. This
multi-platform utility program allows device configuration using a PC. It com-
municates to the device using a serial or USB cable and can also create configu-
ration bar codes to print.
The HP Configuration utility provides a quick and user-friendly configuration
method via the USB-COM interface. The utility allows you to program the scan-
ner by selecting configuration commands through a user-friendly graphical
interface running on a PC. These commands are sent to the scanner over the
selected communication interface, or they can be printed as bar codes to be
scanned.
The utility also provides the ability to perform a software upgrade for the con-
nected device.
