CHAPTER 5 USER PREFERENCES &

Introduction

If desired, program the digital scanner to perform various functions, or activate different features. This chapter
describes imaging preference features and provides programming bar codes for selecting these features.
The digital scanner ships with the settings in
program (see 123Scan2 on page 13-1). on page 5-2
host device and miscellaneous defaults). If the default values suit requirements, programming is not
necessary.
To set feature values, scan a single bar code or a short bar code sequence. The settings are stored in
non-volatile memory and are preserved even when you power down the digital scanner.
NOTE Most computer monitors allow scanning the bar codes directly on the screen. When scanning from the
screen, be sure to set the document magnification to a level where you can see the bar code clearly, and
bars and/or spaces are not merging.
If not using a USB cable, select a host type (see each host chapter for specific host information) after the
power-up beeps sound. This is only necessary upon the first power-up when connecting to a new host.
To return all features to default values, scan the
bar code menus, asterisks (
