Symbologies
Introduction
This chapter describes all symbology features and provides the programming bar codes
necessary for selecting these features for your LS 2208 scanner. Before programming,
follow the instructions in Chapter 1, Getting Started.
Your scanner is shipped with the settings shown in the Symbology Default Table on page
12-3 (also see Appendix A, Standard Default Parameters for all host device and
miscellaneous scanner defaults). If the default values suit your requirements, programming
may not be necessary. Features values are set by scanning single bar codes or short bar
code sequences.
To return all features to their default values, all you need to do is scan the Set All Defaults
bar code on page 4-4.
If you are not using a Synapse or USB cable you must select a host type. Refer to each
host chapter for specific host information.
Scanning Sequence Examples
In most cases you need only scan one bar code to set a specific parameter value. For
example, if you want to transmit bar code data without the UPC-A check digit, simply scan
the
Do Not Transmit UPC-A Check Digit bar code listed under Transmit UPC-A/UPC-E/UPC-
E1 Check Digit on page 12-14. The scanner issues a fast warble beep and the LED turns
green, signifying a successful parameter entry.
