EAN/JAN-8 Addenda Separator
When this feature is On, there is a space between the data from the bar code and the data from the addenda.  When turned 
Off, there is no space.  Default = Off.
EAN/JAN-8 Redundancy
If you are encountering errors when reading EAN/JAN-8 bar codes, you may want to adjust the redundancy count.  Redun-
dancy adjusts the number of times a bar code is decoded before transmission, which may reduce the number of errors.  
Note that the higher the redundancy count, the longer it will take to decode the ba code.  To adjust the redundancy, scan the 
EAN/JAN-8 Redundancy bar code below, then scan a redundancy count between 0 and 10 on the Programming Chart 
inside the back cover of this manual.  Then scan the Save bar code.  Default = 0.
MSI

MSI On/Off
MSI Check Character
Different types of check characters are used with MSI bar codes.  You can program the scanner to read MSI bar codes with 
Type 10 check characters.  Default = Validate Type 10, but Don’t Transmit.
When Check Character is set to Validate Type 10/11 and Transmit, the scanner will only read MSI bar codes printed with 
the specified type check character(s), and will transmit the character(s) at the end of the scanned data.

When Check Character is set to Validate Type 10/11, but Don’t Transmit, the unit will only read MSI bar codes printed 
with the specified type check character(s), but will not transmit the check character(s) with the scanned data.
MSI Redundancy
If you are encountering errors when reading MSI bar codes, you may want to adjust the redundancy count.  Redundancy 
adjusts the number of times a bar code is decoded before transmission, which may reduce the number of errors.  Note that 
the higher the redundancy count, the longer it will take to decode the bar code.  To adjust the redundancy, scan the MSI 
Redundancy bar code below, then scan a redundancy count between 0 and 10 on the Programming Chart inside the back 
cover of this manual.  Then scan the Save bar code.  Default = 0.

No Check Character indicates that the scanner reads and transmits bar code data with or without a check character.
When Check Character is set to Validate, but Don’t Transmit, the unit only reads Plessey bar codes printed with a check 
character, but will not transmit the check character with the scanned data.  
When Check Character is set to Validate and Transmit, the scanner only reads Plessey bar codes printed with a check 
character, and will transmit this character at the end of the scanned data.  Default = No Check Character.

GS1 Emulation
The scanner can automatically format the output from any GS1 data carrier to emulate what would be encoded in an equivalent 
GS1-128 or GS1 DataBar  symbol.  GS1 data carriers include UPC-A and UPC-E, EAN-13 and EAN-8, ITF-14, GS1-128, and 
GS1-128 DataBar and GS1 Composites.  (Any application that accepts GS1 data can be simplified since it only needs to recog-
nize one data carrier type.)
If GS1-128 Emulation is scanned, all retail codes (U.P.C., UPC-E, EAN8, EAN13) are expanded out to 16 digits.  If the AIM ID 
is enabled, the value will be the GS1-128 AIM ID, ]C1 (see Symbology Charts on page A-1).
If GS1 DataBar Emulation is scanned, all retail codes (U.P.C., UPC-E, EAN8, EAN13) are expanded out to 16 digits.  If the AIM 
ID is enabled, the value will be the GS1-DataBar AIM ID, ]em (see Symbology Charts on page A-1).
If GS1 Code Expansion Off is scanned, retail code expansion is disabled, and UPC-E expansion is controlled by the UPC-E0 
Expand (page 8-30) setting.  If the AIM ID is enabled, the value will be the GS1-128 AIM ID, ]C1 (see Symbology Charts on 
page A-1).
If EAN8 to EAN13 Conversion is scanned, all EAN8 bar codes are converted to EAN13 format.  
Default = GS1 Emulation Off.

Utilities
To Add a Test Code I.D. Prefix to All Symbologies
This selection allows you to turn on transmission of a Code I.D. before the decoded symbology.  (See the Symbology Charts, 
beginning on page A-1) for the single character code that identifies each symbology.)  This action first clears all current prefixes, 
then programs a Code I.D. prefix for all symbologies.  This is a temporary setting that will be removed when the unit is power 
cycled.
Show Software Revision
Scan the bar codes below to output the current software revision, unit serial number, and other product information for the scan-
ner or base.
Show Data Format
Scan the bar code below to show current data format settings.
Test Menu
When you scan the Test Menu On code, then scan a programming code in this manual, the scanner displays the content of a 
programming code.  The programming function will still occur, but in addition, the content of that programming code is output to 
the terminal.  
Note: This feature should not be used during normal scanner operation.

EZConfig-Scanning Introduction
EZConfig-Scanning provides a wide range of PC-based programming functions that can be performed on a scanner connected 
to your PC.  EZConfig-Scanning allows you to download upgrades to the scanners firmware, change programmed parameters, 
and create and print programming bar codes.  Using EZConfig-Scanning, you can even save/open the programming parameters 
for a scanner.  This saved file can be e-mailed or, if required, you can create a single bar code that contains all the customized 
programming parameters and mail or fax that bar code to any location.  Users in other locations can scan the bar code to load in 
the customized programming. 
EZConfig-Scanning Operations
The EZConfig-Scanning software performs the following operations:
Scan Data
Scan Data allows you to scan bar codes and display the bar code data in a window.  Scan Data lets you send serial 
commands to the scanner and receive scanner response that can be seen in the Scan Data window.  The data dis-
played in the Scan Data window can either be saved in a file or printed. 
Configure
Configure displays the programming and configuration data of the scanner.  The scanners programming and configu-
ration data is grouped into different categories.  Each category is displayed as a tree item under the “Configure” tree 
node in the application explorer.  When one of these tree nodes is clicked, the right-hand side is loaded with the 
parameters form belonging to that particular category.  The Configure tree option has all the programming and config-
uration parameters specified for a scanner.  You can set or modify these parameters as required.  You can later write 
the modified settings to the scanner, or save them to a dcf file. 
Installing EZConfig-Scanning from the Web
Note: EZConfig-Scanning requires .NET software.  If .NET is not installed on your PC, you will be prompted to install it

EZConfig for Scanning (to install on your PC, follow the next steps).
5. To install on your PC, when prompted, select Save File, and save the files to the c:\windows	emp directory.  
6. Once you have finished downloading the file, exit the web site.
7. Using Explorer, go to the c:\windows\temp file.
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-
