Chapter 12 Symbologies

Introduction

This chapter describes symbology features and provides the programming bar codes for selecting these features
for the scanner. Before programming, follow the instructions in

Chapter 1, Getting Started

.

The scanner is shipped with the settings shown in the

Symbology Default Table on page 12-2

(also see

Appendix

A, Standard Default Parameters

for all host device and miscellaneous scanner defaults). If the default values suit

requirements, programming is not necessary. Set feature values by scanning single bar codes or short bar code
sequences. To return all features to default values, scan

Set All Defaults on page 4-3

.

If not using a Synapse or USB cable, select the host type (see the specific host chapter) after the scanner emits
power-up beeps.

Scanning Sequence Examples

In most cases, scan only one bar code to set a parameter value. For example, to transmit bar code data without the
UPC-A check digit, scan the

Do Not Transmit UPC-A Check Digit

bar code under

Transmit UPC-A/UPC-E/UPC-E1

Check Digit

. The scanner issues a fast warble beep and the LED turns green, indicating a successful parameter

entry.

Other parameters, such as Set Length(s) for D 2 of 5 require scanning several bar codes in sequence. See the
parameter description for this procedure.

Errors While Scanning

Unless otherwise specified, if an error is made during a scanning sequence, re-scan the correct parameter.
