Chapter 2 Operating Setting 2.1 RETURN TO DEFAULT Scan this programming code to set the scanner /Cradle parameters to factory default: Set the scanner to Factory Default Reset all configuration parameters to their factory default setting of the Scanner and Cradle. After this reset you must select all required parameters that meet applications. 2.2 GET FIRMWARE VERSION Display the firmware version of the scanner, please scan below barcode.
2.3 INTERFACE Selection RS232 SERIAL MODE USB COM PORT MODE 2.4 SCANNING TRIGGERING A reading session begins (lighting and decode processing on) when beam is activated and stops when beam is deactivated. Continuous Scanning When the scanner is turned on a continuous reading session begins (lighting and decode processing on).
Pulse A reading session begins when beam is activated and stays on until a period of inactivity lasting the time specified by the timeout. After the timeout, the scan engine turns off. Flashing Flashing mode allows power up the lighting and decoding are on (no need to activate the trigger line) and after a period of inactivity lasting the time specified by the trigger timeout, the scanner starts flashing, checking for a bar code to be read.
When in Level trigger mode, after a period of inactivity lasting the time specified by the trigger timeout, the scanner switches back to flashing mode. Toggle This mode allows lighting and decoding toggle when the trigger line is activated. First trigger activation = lighting and decoding on, Second trigger activation = lighting and decoding off. Presentation This mode allows power up lighting and decoding are on.
2.6 IMAGER MODE You can set the best reading performance of your VEGA by adjusting certain imager parameters. To choose the best reading performance, depends on the environment, your used application and type of barcodes. Area mode for decode 1D and 2D barcodes. Linear mode for decode 1D Barcodes. Area mode allows you to set the position of the VEGA in any direction regardless of the orientation of the barcode, and perform a good read on 1D and 2D barcodes.
