Programming the Engine

Introduction

There are 3 ways to program (configure) the Engine, Code Programming, Command Programming, and

QuickSet Programming.

Code Programming

The Engine reads a set of specially encoded barcodes to program features. In the following sections, we will
explain the options and features available and provide the barcodes to program them.
This method of programming the Engine is most straight forward. However, it requires manually readings of
each barcode. As all manual operations, errors are more likely to occur.

Command Programming

The Host can send the Pro CMD strings (see the chapter of Software Interface) to program the Engine. In the
following sections, the Pro CMD strings will be included with the barcodes for Code Programming.
A fixture, such as EVK3000 or other simplier circuit board, could be used to program the Engines before they
are installed into your equipments or systems. Another alternative is to design the configuration capability in
your equipments or systems.
This method of programming the Engine could be automated. A software program can be developed to
download all the configuration data to the Engine.
QuickSet Programming
QuickSet is a Windows based GUI program for Newland Auto-ID bar code readers. It displays decoded
data and captured images. The engine with its circuit board can be easily configured through the interface of
QuickSet.
This method of programming the Engine is similar as the Command Programming. QuickSet is a software
program developed for Newland Auto-ID products .
Note: The programming results are restored in non-volatile memory. They will not be lost when the Engine is
powered off.
