New Master Pin - Microscan MS-3 User Manual

New Master Pin

Usage: Some applications require the line worker to change the master symbol.
This can be done by installing a switch at the location of the scanner. It is
very common to have a keyed switch so that accidental switching does
not occur.
Definition: After New Master Pin is enabled, a pulse can be received on the new
master pin which will cause the scanner to record the next decoded sym-
bol(s) as the new master symbol(s).
It is important to note that the enabling New Master Pin does not in
itself cause a master symbol to be recorded. The master pin must then
be activated momentarily (for a minimum of 10 ms) before a master
symbol can be scanned into memory. (See

After New Master Pin has been enabled and the pin activated, decodes will be saved
in the master database beginning with master symbol #1. If the scanner is configured
for a multisymbol read cycle (Number of Symbols is greater than 1), the remaining
decodes will be saved in each consecutive master symbol location. For example, if
Number of Symbols is set to 3 and New Master Pin is then activated, at the end of
the next read cycle, the decoded symbols will be saved as master symbols 1, 2, and 3.
