Note: EZConfig-Scanning requires .NET software. If .NET is not installed on your PC, you will be prompted to install it during the EZConfig-Scanning installation. 1. Access the Honeywell web site at www.honeywellaidc.com 2. Click on the Resources tab. Select Software.
8. Double click on the Setup.exe file. Follow the screen prompts to install the EZConfig-Scanning program. 9. If you’ve selected the defaults during installation, you can click on Start Menu-All Programs-Honeywell-EZConfig- Scanning. Resetting the Factory Defaults This selection erases all your settings and resets the scanner to the original factory defaults. It also disables all plugins.
Serial Programming Commands The serial programming commands can be used in place of the programming bar codes. Both the serial commands and the programming bar codes will program the scanner. For complete descriptions and examples of each serial programming com- mand, refer to the corresponding programming bar code in this manual.
Concatenation of Multiple Commands Multiple commands can be issued within one Prefix/Storage sequence. Only the Tag, SubTag, and Data fields must be repeated for each command in the sequence. If additional commands are to be applied to the same Tag, then the new command sequence is separated with a comma (,) and only the SubTag and Data fields of the additional command are issued.

Maintenance Repairs Repairs and/or upgrades are not to be performed on this product. These services are to be performed only by an authorized service center (see Customer Support on page 16-1). Maintenance Your device provides reliable and efficient operation with a minimum of care. Although specific maintenance is not required, the following periodic checks ensure dependable operation: Cleaning the Scanner The scanner’s housing may be cleaned with a soft cloth or tissue dampened with water (or a mild detergent-water solution.)
Is the bar code displayed but not entered? The bar code is displayed on the host device correctly, but you still have to press a key to enter it (the Enter/Return key or the Tab key, for example). • You need to program a suffix. Programming a suffix enables the scanner to output the bar code data plus the key you need (such as “CR”) to enter the data into your application.
