2D Global Features
The following features are common to all, or in some cases, most of the
available 2D symbologies. Default settings are indicated at each feature/
option with a green arrow. Also reference Appendix C, Standard Defaults for
a listing of the most widely used set of standard
factory settings. That
sec-
tion also provides space to record any custom settings needed or imple-
mented for your system.
To set most features:
1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING bar code at the top of
applicable
programming
pages.
2. Scan the correct bar code to set the des
ired programming feature or
parameter. You may need to cover unused bar codes on the page, and
possibly the facing page, to ensure that the reader reads only the bar
code you intend to scan.
3. If additional input parame
te
rs are needed, go to Appendix D, Keypad,
and scan the appropriate characters from the keypad.
Additional information about many features can be found in the “Ref-
erences” chapter.
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar
code to abort an
d not save the entry string. You can then start again
at the beginning.
Complete the programming sequence by scanning the ENTER/EXIT PRO-
GRAMMING bar code to exit
Programming Mode.
