To modify a scanner feature (item), the programming bar codes con-
tained in this manual must be scanned in a given sequence depending
upon the feature being programmed (as shown in Table 2). There are
three possible programming sequences:
A. Programming sample A (the most commonly used format)
demonstrates how three bar codes are scanned in sequence to
do the following:
1. Place the scanner in Programming Mode (SET bar code).
2. Scan the Item Tag
3. End the programming session and reset the scanner (END
bar code).
B. Sample B provides an example of a programming feature
requiring the entry of a range value. Like sample A, the scan-
ner is placed in Programming Mode and an Item Tag
scanned. Then, a value must be entered before ending the pro-
gramming session. In the example, three digits must be
scanned from the number pad in Appendix C: Keypad. This type
of format, requiring a total of as many as six programming bar
codes, is necessary to allow flexible programming with larger
item value numeric ranges.
C. The programming sequence shown in example C requires
scanning of a single, extended length bar code. This special
programming bar code contains all the data necessary to enter
Programming Mode, set the Item Tag
Programming Mode (all in one step).
1. An "Item Tag" is a term used to describe an assigned number, which is encoded in a programming
bar code, that toggles (selects, enables, disables, etc.) a specific programming feature.
