CONFIGURATION METHODS

1.3.1

Reading Configuration Codes

This manual can be used for complete setup and configuration. If you wish to change
the default settings, you can configure the PowerScan® D8530 reader by reading the
programming code symbols in this manual. Configuration commands and their
relative arguments are read individually using the symbols in this manual. See
Appendix D.
1.3.2

Using Datalogic Aladdin™

The Datalogic Aladdin™ program, available on the CD-ROM provided, allows
programming the reader by selecting configuration commands or printing them
through a user-friendly graphical interface running on the PC. These commands are
sent to the reader over the current communication interface; or they can be printed to
be read.
1.3.3

Sending Configuration Strings from Host

An alternative configuration method is provided in Appendix A using the RS-232 or
USB COM interface. This method is particularly useful when many devices need to
be configured with the same settings. Batch files containing the desired parameter
settings can be prepared to configure devices quickly and easily.
