Systems Manual 33Base StationBase Station configuration is primarily performed by first program-ming a scanner with the desired options, then downloading the config-uration to the Base Station from that scanner.Use the bar code below to overwrite a Base Station’s configuration file.What IsProgrammingMode?The scanner must be placed into the Programming Mode state in orderto accept programming commands. When programming using the barcode labels in this manual, the scanner is placed in Programming Modeby scanning the "SET" label at the top of most programming featurepages.While in Programming Mode, the scanner only recognizes special pro-gramming bar codes. See the section, LED and Beeper Indications forinformation about scanner indications while in Programming Mode.CAUTIONVerify that the scanner and Base Station host inter-face types (RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, etc.) arematched before attempting to download any config-uration files or perform any custom programmingsessions. Go to Interface (I/F) selection on page xand set the scanner to the Base Station’s I/F type.CAUTIONAfter the Base Station receives the entire configura-tion, it will drop all links to scanners other than thescanner transmitting the new configuration. Thiswill require the user to relink all other scanners (seeLinking the Scanner to a Base Station). Prior to thetime of relinking, it is advisable to considerenabling the feature, Common Configuration,ensuring that the Base Station will attempt to sharethe new configuration with scanners as they arelinked.Transmit ScannerConfiguration to BaseStation
