DTP32HS DENSITOMETER

Barcode Operation
You can change several configuration settings of your DTP32HS Densitometer using the
special format barcodes supplied in this document or by your software provider. These set-
up barcodes consist of multiple strips that must be read in the proper order.
In most cases your software will automatically configure your instrument. If your
software or software documentation prompts you to configure your instrument,
the enclosed X-Rite Set-up Barcodes contain some commonly used commands that
can be scanned immediately to get you up and running. Additional barcode set-up
and information is available on the CD that is shipped with your instrument.
The LEDs signal the status of the instrument when reading a set-up barcode. While scanning
the initial barcode, the LEDs will flash slowly between off and green, the same as any
normal scan. Once the unit has recognized the initial barcode as being part of a set-up
barcode, the LEDs will slowly flash between amber and green. This same flash pattern will
continue while scanning continuation barcodes. Upon completion of the entire set-up
barcode, the LEDs will come on steady green, indicating a successful completion.
REFER TO THE FOLLOWING PAGES FOR X-RITE SET-UP BARCODES.
CAUTION: Only use the Set-up barcodes if instructed to manually set-up your instrument. This will avoid
changing configurations that may cause the densitometer and your software to cease communicating. If
this does happen reference the Troubleshooting, Service, and General Maintenance section.
NOTE: To enable the following barcodes to print at their intended size, make sure the following print
option is set correctly in the Print dialog for your particular version of Adobe Reader.
