This screen also allows you to save and/or download configurations
to the reader. The settings first displayed are the StrataSet RS232
default settings, not the reader settings. With the methods described
under “Using the StrataSet Menus” you are able to move around this
screen and change options. After configuring the screen for your
particular application, you can save the screen to a file, download the
settings to the reader, or both.
Get Scanner Settings
Press 2 to activate this option, or move the cursor to this location and
hit ENTER . This option lets you view the reader’s configuration by
uploading the information from the reader through your PC’s COM
port. You must first enter Program Mode to initialize
communications between the PC and the reader. (See Enter Program
Mode for more information). Once you have entered Program Mode
and selected this option, the configuration screen displays the
reader’s programmed parameters. The reader beeps once if it has
successfully entered Program Mode. The reader beeps again (either
3 times for the 2755-LHR-3C or 5 times for the 2755-LHR-5B, 5C
and 5BX1) when it has transmitted its configuration. You must exit
Program Mode after getting the reader’s configuration, before you
can resume normal scanning. (See Exit Program Mode for more
information).
File List
Press 3 to activate this option or move the cursor to this location and
hit ENTER . By choosing this option, a list of .TRK files residing in
the current directory is displayed. After highlighting a filename, you
can hit
ENTER and the file is transferred to the Configuration screen.
You can delete the file by pressing F9 , or hit F3 to generate a .SET
file listing all enabled reader options in that file.
Select Com Port
Press 4 to activate this option, or move the cursor to this location and
hit ENTER . This option allows you to select either Com1 or Com2.
You may be prompted to select a Com Port during various steps of
the programming or uploading sequence.
Enter Program Mode
Press 5 to activate this option, or move the cursor to this location and
hit ENTER . This function prepares the reader for communication
interfacing. One long beep from the reader indicates a successful
entry into program mode.
