    1 SCOPE This specification describes key operations using the keys and the LCD of the BA400 series general-purpose bar code printers. 2 OUTLINE Key operations are different depending on the printer mode: Online mode in which operations are carried out through the keys and error messages are displayed while the printer is connected to the host such as a PC, and the system mode in which self-diagnosis and setting of various parameters are performed.
  • Page 7: Outline Of Each Mode

    4 OUTLINE OF EACH MODE This chapter describes the outline of each mode supported by the printer. Refer to each chapter for detailed information. Also, in the case of operation using a USB memory, it is not necessary to insert a USB memory in advance and it may be inserted immediately before the operation to be used.
  • Page 8: System Mode

    4.6 SYSTEM MODE This mode is mainly used by service persons or the production department staff for adjustment of the printer before shipment. The system mode contains the menus which might be changed not so frequently. In addition to the parameter setting and fine adjustment menus common to the User System Mode, there are sensor adjustment, interface, RFID, RTC and BASIC setting menus.
