Programming via Handheld Device
The scanner can also accept programming via its auxiliary port using a
handheld scanning device. Eligible handheld devices must have the ability
to transmit Code 128 function codes such as the programming bar codes
presented in this manual. Datalogic models QuickScan
®
1000 and Quick-
Scan
®
6000 support this functionality. Handheld data format require-
ments (baud rate, parity, etc.) are presented in
Appendix F of this manual.
Additionally the programmable feature,
Aux Port Mode, must be set to
“External Handheld Input” to allow operation.
What Is Programming Mode?
Programming Mode is a state in which the scanner must be placed in
order to accept commands via programming bar code labels. When pro-
gramming using the bar code labels in this manual, the scanner is typically
placed in Programming Mode by scanning the SWITCH label.
While in the Programming Mode, the scanner only recognizes the special
programming bar codes contained in this programming guide. See
Appendix A for information about scanner indications while in the Pro-
gramming Mode.
Entering and Exiting Programming Mode.
Use the bar code label below to enter and exit (‘switch” into and out of)
Programming Mode.
