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 B, Standard Defaults for a listing
of the most widely used set of standard factory settings. That section also provides space to record any custom
se
ttings needed or implemented 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 desired 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 paramete
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 “References” chapter.
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar code to abort and
not sa
ve the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.
Complete the programming sequence by scanning the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING bar code to exit
Programming Mode.
