OPEN the scanner Programming Mode by scanning code 1.1. CHANGE SCANNER SETTINGS by scanning any of the codes 1.3 to 7.x.x. CLOSE the scanner Programming Mode by scanning code 1.1. Reading the OPEN/CLOSE code 1.1 gives a double tone beep (Low High). An example: For changing the baudrate to 4800 the following codes must be scanned successively: 1.1 --> 3.1.4 --> 1.1 6 Conf_Guide_2003.qxd 13-02-2003 12:16 Pagina 7 After reading a valid barcode in Programming Mode the scanner will give a High beep. The scanner will generate a Low beep after receiving an unexpected code. Reading a code, for example a predefined ASCII character, directly after entering the Programming Mode, is not allowed and the scanner will not accept this data. At any moment (in Programming Mode) you can scan code 1.2 to close the programming mode without update, or code 1.3 to return to default settings. 7 Conf_Guide_2003.qxd 13-02-2003 14:42 Pagina 8 Factory default settings SLEEP MODE Sleep mode SCANNER TIMING Same code delay RS232 COMMUNICATION Baudrate Parity Data bits Stop bits RTS/CTS Postamble OCIA COMMUNICATION OCIA byte format IBM RS485 COMMUNICATION Mode KEYBOARD WEDGE COMMUNICATION Terminal type Keyboard Inter character delay Postamble USB COMMUNICATION Mode DECODER SELECTION EAN/UPC Code 128/EAN 128 Code 39 Code 32 Codabar Interleaved 2/5 DECODER CONFIGURATION Min. length Interleaved 2/5 CODE IDENTIFIERS Code identifiers 8 DEFAULT After 30 minutes DEFAULT 600msec DEFAULT 9600 None 8 2 Off DEFAULT DTS DEFAULT IBM fixed POS scanner DEFAULT PC/AT International (Alt method) 2msec Enter (Alpha numeric) USB Keyboard Emulation DEFAULT On (AddOn Off) Off Off Off Off Off DEFAULT 8 DEFAULT Off Conf_Guide_2003.qxd 13-02-2003 12:16 Pagina 9 Default message format CODE EAN13 EAN8 UPCA UPCE Code 128 EAN 128 Code 39 Code 32 Codabar Interleaved 2/5 MESSAGE FORMAT D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7 D8 D9 D10 D11 D12 D13 D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7 D8 D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7 D8 D9 D10 D11 D12 D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7 D1 - Dx ]C1 D1 - Dx D1 - Dx D1 - Dx D1 - Dx D1 - Dx Important: Please note that EAN/UPC codes with AddOn are transmitted without a separator. 9 Conf_Guide_2003.qxd 13-02-2003 12:16 Programming flow chart CHANGE SCANNER SETTINGS OPEN PROGRAMMING MODE BY SCANNING CODE 1.1 OR BY SLEEPMODE BUTTON (U.S. PROGRAMMING MODE) CHANGE SCANNER SETTINGS BY SCANNING CODE 1.3 - 7.x.x CLOSE PROGRAMMING MODE BY SCANNING CODE 1.1 SAVE AND EXIT 10 Pagina 10 Conf_Guide_2003.qxd 13-02-2003 12:16 1.

These features are especially helpful on sheets or products where multiple bar codes are printed. 1. Press the button on top of the scanner. Dependent on which feature is chosen, the scanner’s scan pattern will change from the multiple scan lines, to either a blinking multiple scan pattern or to just one single Line. 2. Direct the blinking multiple scan pattern/single line onto the required bar code, whilst holding the button. 110 Conf_Guide_2003.qxd 13-02-2003 Configuration Guide 12:16 Pagina 111 Polaris features 3. Once the scan pattern/line is completely crossing the bar code, release the button. The scanner generates a beep indicating the scanner has read the bar code. 4. After a successful read, the blinking multiple scan pattern/single line will disappear, and the scanner will return to the normal Omni directional mode. To use the Freeze Frame/Single Line option again, follow steps one to four. To activate the Freeze Frame/Single Line: 1. 2. Scan code 7.1.3 Enable Search Mode. Scan code 7.1.5 for Single Line or code 7.1.6 for Freeze Frame.
