Speak Bar Codes Currently Enabled 

This bar code prompts the scanner to speak a list of the bar code symbologies that the scanner 

has been programmed to recognize and read. Refer to Appendix B for the actual programming 

tag. 

Indication 

  The LED Status Indicator stays dim green. 

  Scanner begins speaking as soon as bar code is scanned. It talks and lists all the bar codes 

currently enabled in the scanner. 

Example:

“UPC EAN is ON, Periodical P2 is ON...Periodical P5 is ON...Code 128 is 

ON.” 

  Scanner beeps when it is done speaking the enabled symbologies. 

Speak Scanner Serial Number 

This bar code enables the user to obtain the scanner Serial Number without having to remove 

the scanner from the checkstand (if installed) and looking at the manufacturing name plate 

label on the back of the unit. Refer to Appendix B for the actual programming tag. 

Indication 

  The LED Status Indicator light up bright green while it is speaking then goes back to dim 

green when it is done. 

  As soon as the scanner reads the bar code, it says “Scanner S N” then speaks all 10 digits. 

  If the scanner says “Scanner S N 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0”, then the actual serial number is NOT 

stored in memory. 

  The scanner beeps when it is done speaking the serial number. 

Program Entry Procedure 

Enter All Parameters 

To enter all parameters in a Parameter Program, scan the two Hex codes that set the 7893 in 

the Parameter Program, and then make parameter changes in the order described on the 

programming worksheet for that mode. When programming all parameters in a specific mode, 

proceed directly through the work sheet. When making a change in a parameter, the scanner 

proceeds to the next parameter to be changed or it goes back to Program Mode if the selection 

ends programming in that particular Parameter Program. 

The following figure shows how to proceed through a Specific Programming Mode where all 

parameters are entered. It presents the Parameter Program for the Bar Codes 2 program 

parameters. The figure shows how to proceed through the Parameter Program by entering all 

available parameters. Notice that (in this example) if Code 39 bar codes are disabled, 

programming immediately returns to Program Mode. However, if Code 39 bar codes are 

enabled, the scanner directs the user to continue entering parameter information.
