STEP 4 – X-PRESS™ CONFIGURATION



X-PRESS™ is the intuitive Human Machine Interface designed to improve ease of installation and maintenance.

Status and diagnostic information are clearly presented on the display (which can be configured in various
languages) and by means of the five colored LEDs, whereas the single push button gives immediate access to
the following relevant functions:

AutoSetup to self-optimize and auto-configure reading performance
in demanding applications

AutoLearn to self-detect and auto-configure for reading unknown
barcodes (by type and length)

Focus Lock to memorize the mechanical focus position

Test Mode with bar-graph visualization to check static reading
performance


The colors and meaning of the five LEDs are illustrated in the following
table:

READY (green)

This LED indicates the device is ready to operate.

GOOD (green)

This LED confirms successful reading.

TRIGGER (yellow) This LED indicates the status of the reading phase.
COM (yellow)

This LED indicates active communication on main serial port.

STATUS (red)

This LED indicates a NO READ result.

During the reader startup (reset or restart phase), all the LEDs blink for one second.

On the back of the reader near the cable, the “POWER ON” LED indicates the laser scanner is correctly powered.

AUTO LEARN


If you are configuring your scanner using X-PRESS™, you must start with the Auto Learn procedure.

1. Enter

the

Auto Learn function by holding the X-PRESS™ push button pressed until the LEARN LED is on.

2. Release the button to enter the Auto Learn function.

Once entered, the reader starts a procedure to automatically detect and recognize barcodes (by type and
length), which are presented to it (*). The laser turns on and the LEARN LED blinks to indicate the ongoing
process.

The procedure is as follows:

A) place the desired barcode on the scanline.

B) wait until the LEARN LED stays steady on

(indicating the reader has detected the barcode).

C) repeat, if needed, the above two steps to

program up to 10 different barcodes (either by
length or by symbology). If more than one
barcode is detected, the Multi Label mode is
enabled (refer to the “2K/4K Family Software
Configuration Parameter Guide” Help file).

3. Exit the process by pressing the X-PRESS™ push button once. The scanner will restart at the end of the

process, and then the detected barcodes are automatically configured in scanner memory.

NOTE

If the barcode cannot be read because of low contrast or excessive ambient light, you can
perform the AutoSetup function to optimize the optical parameters. Then you can perform
AutoLearn to recognize the barcode symbology.

* In case of Programming Barcodes, refer to the “ID-NET™ Programming Barcodes And Setup Procedure” document in the
product CD.
