Set HX2 scanner keyboard wedge, scanner sound, scanner port, and scan key settings. Assign
baud rate, parity, stop bits and data bits for available COM ports. Scanner parameters apply to the
HX2 tethered scanner/imager only.
Barcode manipulation parameters are applied to the data resulting from successful barcode scans.
Tethered scanner configuration can be changed using the Scanner Control Panel or via the LXE
API functions. While the changed configuration is being read, the Scanner LED is solid amber.
The scanner is not operational during the configuration update.
After hotswapping tethered scanners, the HX2 auto-detects the tethered scanner type.
