Zebra DS8178 Product Reference Guide

4 - 2 DS8178 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases, scanning one bar code sets the parameter value. For example, to enable Wi-Fi Friendly Mode, scan
the Enable Wi-Fi Friendly Mode bar code listed under Wi-Fi Friendly Mode on page 4-11. The scanner issues a
fast warble beep and the LED turns green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
Other parameters, such as Bluetooth Friendly Name, require scanning several bar codes. See the parameter
descriptions for this procedure.
Errors While Scanning
Unless otherwise specified, to correct an error during a scanning sequence, just re-scan the correct parameter.
Radio Communications Parameter Defaults
Table 4-1 lists the defaults for radio communication parameters. Change these values in one of two ways:
• Scan the appropriate bar codes in this chapter. The new value replaces the standard default value in
memory. To recall default parameter values, see Default Parameters on page 5-5.
• Configure the scanner using the 123Scan configuration program. See Chapter 17, 123Scan and Software
Tools.
NOTE See Appendix A, Standard Parameter Defaults for all user preference, host, symbology, and
miscellaneous default parameters.
