Programming via Handheld Device

Product Reference Guide
If you experience difficulties, have questions or require additional infor-
mation, contact your local distributor, or call your dealer or sales represen-
tative.
The scanner's programmable feature settings can be modified to accom-
modate your system's unique requirements. These settings can be commu-
nicated to the scanner in one of two ways:
1. Commands can be sent directly from the host. A limited set of
host commands are available. Refer to
or contact Tech Support.
2. Programming barcode labels can also be used to modify the scan-
ner's programmable settings. This manual provides the barcode
labels and instructions necessary to configure the scanner's fea-
tures and options.
When you program the scanner using any of the methods above, the scan-
ner will store the changes until reprogrammed or returned to factory
defaults.
The scanner can also accept programming via its auxiliary port using a
handheld scanning device. Eligible handheld devices must have the ability
to transmit Code 128 function codes such as the programming barcodes
presented in this manual. Datalogic

QuickScan 6000 support this functionality. Handheld data format
requirements (baud rate, parity, etc.) are presented in

set to "External Handheld Input" to allow operation.
