For most of the parameters, only one read is required to set them to new values. The
scanner will respond with two beeps when these parameters are configured. But for
some special parameters, multiple reads are required to complete the setting. The
scanner will respond with a short beep if the configuration of the parameter is still
not complete. These parameters usually refer to a numeric value or a string of
characters, such as keyboard type, inter-character delay, prefix/postfix code, etc.
For these kinds of parameters, the label of the parameter to be configured must be
read first. Then the labels comprising the numeric value or character string are read.
Finally, the “Validate” label must be read to complete the setting. The scanner will
respond with two beeps when the “Validate” label is read.

Parameter Label
Decimal Label
"Validate" Label
For example, to configure the Inter-Character Delay to be 15 ms, the “Inter-
Character Delay” label is first read, and then the decimal digit labels “1” and “5”,
and finally, the “Validate” label to complete the setting.

Each character programmed for the character string parameters is represented by
two hexadecimal digits. The two hexadecimal digits usually comprise a value that is
the ASCII code equivalence of the character being programmed.
Beside the two hexadecimal digits, there is an optional key type/status that can be
specified for each character of the string parameters. This optional key type/status
can only be specified for some particular parameters when the keyboard interface is
used. These parameters are: Prefix Code, Postfix Code, Code ID, and Additional
Fields of Editing Formats.
The available key type/status settings can be selected will be described briefly. The
configuration procedures for character string parameters are shown below.
