Image Scanner Report; Application Work Groups - Honeywell 2020 User Manual

If you want to assign an alphabetic name to the image scanner, create a Code
128 barcode containing "~BT_NAM name ." followed by a FNC3 character
(hexidecimal 83), where name is the new image scanner name. Scan the Reset
barcode (page 3-9 or on the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this
manual). You may use Barcode Builder, which is included with QuickView.
Refer to QuickView on page 4-4 for instructions about downloading QuickView
from the Honeywell website: www.honeywell.com/aidc

Application Work Groups

Your cordless system can have up to seven image scanners linked to one base.
You can also have up to seven work groups. If you want to have all of the image
scanners' settings programmed alike, you don't need to use more than one work
group. If you want each image scanner to have unique settings (e.g., beeper
volume, prefix/suffix, data formatter), then you may program each image
scanner to its own unique work group and may program each image scanner
independently. For example, you might want to have multiple work groups in a
retail/warehouse application where you need to have different data appended to
barcodes used in the warehouse area versus the retail area. You could assign
all of the image scanners in the retail area to one work group and those in the
warehouse to another. Consequently, any desired changes to either the retail or
warehouse area would apply to all image scanners in that particular work group.
Visual Xpress (page 4-3) makes it easy for you to program your system for use
with multiple image scanners and multiple work groups.
The image scanner keeps a copy of the menu settings it is using. Whenever the
image scanner is connected or reconnected to a base, the image scanner is
updated with the latest settings from the base for its work group. The image
scanner also receives menu setting changes processed by the base. If an image
scanner is removed from one base and placed into another base, it will be
updated with the new base settings for whatever work group that the image
scanner was previously assigned. For example, if the image scanner was in
work group 1 linked to the first base, it will be placed in work group 1 in the
second base with the associated settings.
