Datalogic's new <a href="/barcode-reader-scanner_3/DataLogic-Heron-3130_2465/" target="_blank" title="Heron 3130 1D Scanner"> Heron 3130 1D Scanner</a> and <a href="/barcode-reader-scanner_3/DataLogic-Heron-2D-3430_2466/" target="_blank" title="Heron 3430 2D Imager"> Heron 3430 2D Imager</a> are not only great at scanning barcodes, they also offer unique light and sound options and we want to show you how to get the most out of those features.

First, check out your <a href="/download/heron_3100_quickref.pdf" target="_blank" title="3130 Quick Start Guide"> 3130 Quick Ref Guide</a> and <a href="/download/heron_3430_quickref.pdf" target="_blank" title="3430 Quick Start Guide"> 3430 Quick Ref Guide</a>. In these guides you will find handy configuration codes that can do everything from lower the volume to configure the country code. The Quick Reference Guide will be the one instruction booklet you'll actually read and want to keep handy.

Let's start with the lights on the Heron 3130 and the Heron 3430. Out of the box your 3130 will display the rotating colors, pausing on each color long enough to enjoy it but not so quickly that you'll feel dizzy, and the 3430 will default to a solid blue. And a "good read" scan will get a green light. To change these to solid colors, rotating colors or to turn the color off you can use <a href="/download/heron_screensaversetting-v1.0.pdf" target="_blank" title="Datalogic Heron LED Settings"> these barcodes</a> to customize your scanner preferences. To change your good read from "green" to another color, check out your Quick Reference guide for both the <a href="/download/heron_3100_quickref.pdf" target="_blank" title="3130 Quick Ref Guide"> 3130</a> and the <a href="/download/heron_3430_quickref.pdf" target="_blank" title="3430 Quick Start Guide"> 3430</a>.

If you find that none of these codes are working for you please check to make sure your firmware is up to date. To update your firmware or to get fancy sounds download the <a href="/download/aladdin-v-1.12.zip" target="_blank" title="Aladdin Configuration software"> Aladdin Configuration software</a>. Also, within Aladdin you will be able to do even further customization with the colors. For example, rotating red, white, and blue for a holiday weekend!
