Chapter 5: Configuration
Scanner Properties Setup
If you’re using the keyboard:
• Highlight the bar code you want to work with, and press the [RIGHT]
arrow key to display the sub-menu.
• Use the [UP] and [DOWN] arrow keys to highlight a parameter.
• To change a parameter value, press [SPACE] or the [RIGHT] arrow key. If
a field requires text entry, a text box is displayed in which you can enter the
appropriate value.
5.5.13.4 Non-Decoded Options
Dot Time (msec)
The value selected for Dot Time determines (in milliseconds) how long the targeting
dot remains on before the scanner switches to a normal scan sweep. Choosing this
option displays a window in which you can enter a value.
A value of
0
(zero) disables the target dot.
Short Code
When enabled (set to on), this parameter allows scanning of short I 2 of 5 bar codes
(2 characters). When disabled, these short bar codes are rejected.
Enabling Short Code may reduce the robustness of the decoding since the
8525 G2/8530 G2 must decode more potential bar codes; it is therefore not
recommended for general-purpose bar codes with 4 or more characters.
Verify
The value entered for this parameter determines the number of correct additional
decodes required after the initial decode before a bar code is accepted. Higher values
significantly increase the time it takes to decode a bar code but also improve the
reliability of the decoded bar code.
