Step 3 - X-Press™ Configuration; Auto Learn - Datalogic DS2100N Quick Reference Manual

DS2100N QUICK GUIDE
STEP 3 – X-PRESS™ CONFIGURATION
X-PRESS™ is the intuitive Human Machine Interface designed to improve ease of installation and maintenance.
Status and diagnostic information are clearly presented by means of the five colored LEDs, whereas the single
push button gives immediate access to the following relevant functions:
• Test Mode with bar graph visualization to check static reading
performance
• AutoLearn to self-detect and auto-configure for reading unknown
barcodes (by type and length)
• AutoSetup to self-optimize and auto-configure reading performance in
demanding applications
If using the OM2000N accessory, when entering the X-PRESS™ interface, the Oscillating Mirror
remains in the default fixed position (-15°) in order to make barcode reading easier while
performing the X-PRESS™ functions.
NOTE
The colors and meaning of the five LEDs are illustrated in the following table:
READY (green)
GOOD (green)
TRIGGER (yellow)
COM (yellow)
STATUS (red)
During the reader startup (reset or restart phase), all the LEDs blink for one second.
On the back of the reader near the cable, the "POWER ON" LED indicates the laser scanner is correctly powered.

AUTO LEARN

If you are configuring your scanner using X-PRESS™, you must start with the Auto Learn procedure.
1. Enter the Auto Learn function by holding the X-PRESS™ push button pressed until the LEARN LED is on.
2. Release the button to enter the Auto Learn function.
Once entered, the reader starts a procedure to automatically detect and recognize barcodes (by type and
length), which are presented to it (*). The laser turns on and the LEARN LED blinks to indicate the ongoing
process.

The procedure is as follows:
A) place the desired barcode on the scanline.
B) wait until the LEARN LED stays steady on
(indicating the reader has detected the
barcode).
C) repeat, if needed, the above two steps to
program up to 10 different barcodes (the
LEARN LED returns to the blinking state for
the next code). If more than one barcode is
detected, the Multi Label mode is enabled
(refer to the "2K/4K
Configuration Parameter Guide" Help file).
