INTRODUCTION
Your new scanner has been configured at the factory with a set of default communication protocols. Since many host systems have unique formats and protocol requirements, Metrologic provides a wide range of configurable features that may be selected with the use of this bar code configuration guide. Once the configuration is completed, the scanner stores the settings in nonvolatile memory or NOVRAM. NOVRAM saves the settings when the power is turned off.

Default Feature Feature requires the Multi-Code Configuration Method, see Bar Code Configuration Methods on page x. Important!

Bar Code Configuration Methods

BAR CODE CONFIGURATION METHODS

Metrologic scanners can be bar code configured in two ways: the Single-Code Method and the Multi-Code Method. Single-Code Method Most features can be enabled or disabled using the Single-Code Method. 1. 2. 3. Power up the scanner. Scan the bar code(s) for the desired feature(s). Observe a multi-toned, save setting beep that indicates the configuration has been saved to NOVRAM.

Multi-Code Method All features can be enabled or disabled using the Multi-Code Method. A feature marked with a ~ requires the Multi-Code Method. 1. 2. 3. 4. Power up the scanner. Scan the Enter/Exit Configuration Mode bar code. [3 beeps] Scan the bar code(s) for the desired feature(s). [1 beep] Scan the Enter/Exit Configuration Mode bar code [3 beeps] and save new configuration.
Enter/Exit Configuration Mode

To abort a configuration change, power off the scanner before scanning the Enter/Exit Configuration Mode bar code.

NEED TO START OVER?

Scan the Recall Default bar code. This will erase all previous settings and return to the scanners default communications protocol. Keyboard Wedge interface scanners will load keyboard wedge defaults. All other scanners will load RS-232 defaults.

Metrologic manufactures custom OEM scanners, which load the OEMs defaults. For further information on the affects they have on Metrologic default communications protocols refer to Section N, Custom Defaults.

In general, standard bar code symbologies will only encode the ASCII character set. Function keys, arrow keys and many other extended keys on an IBM compatible keyboard do not translate to ASCII characters. One method of bar coding the extended keys is to substitute the extended key codes when a specific ASCII control character found in the bar code stream.

SERIAL PROGRAM MODE

For Serial Program Mode, all commands must be framed by an STX (02 Hex) and ETX (03 Hex). To recall defaults: 1. Transmit <STX>999999<ETX> through the Serial Port. This will put the scanner in serial program mode. Scanning will be suspended and the scanner will respond with an ACK (06 Hex). Transmit <STX>999998<ETX> through the Serial Port. This is the Recall Default bar code in the MetroSelect guide. The scanner will respond with an ACK (06 Hex). Transmit <STX>999999<ETX> through the Serial Port. This will cause the scanner to exit program mode and save the new settings. The scanner will beep 3 times and send an ACK (06 Hex).
