How to Configure the Terminal

nugget
You can customize many of the operating characteristics of the 243X
terminals, such as the volume of their audio signals and the bar code
symbologies they decode. These characteristics are controlled by
configuration parameters. The values you set for these configuration
parameters determine how the terminal operates. To learn about each
parameter, see Chapter 6, "Configuration Command Reference," in the
Trakker Antares 2400 Family System Manual (P/N 071389).
You can configure the terminals by using any of these methods:
Use the TRAKKER Antares 2400 Menu System
You can use the menus and screens of the TRAKKER Antares 2400 Menu
System to view the current configuration and change the configuration
parameters. For help, see "Configuring the Terminal With the Menu
System" on page 35.
Scan Bar Codes
You can change the terminal's configuration parameters by scanning Code
39 or Code 93 bar code labels that contain configuration commands. This
method is a fast, easy way to change the terminal's configuration. You can
scan the bar code labels in this manual and the 2400 Family system
manual, or you can create your own bar code labels. For help, see
Chapter 2, "Configuring and Managing the Terminals," in the 2400
Family system manual.
Send Commands Through the Serial Port
You can change the terminal's configuration parameters by sending
commands from a host computer or PC that is connected to the terminal's
serial port. For help, see Chapter 2, "Configuring and Managing the
Terminals," in the 2400 Family system manual.
Send Commands Through the RF Port (2435 Only)
You can change the terminal's configuration parameters by sending
commands through the UDP Plus or TCP/IP network. This method lets
you configure one or more terminals at the same time. For help, see
Chapter 2, "Configuring and Managing the Terminals," in the 2400
Family system manual.
Use the Clone Application
You can set the terminal's configuration parameters by using the clone
application to copy parameters from one 243X to another 243X. This
method is a fast, easy way to configure a new 243X with the same
parameters as an existing 243X. For help, see Chapter 2, "Configuring and
Managing the Terminals," in the 2400 Family system manual.
