What Is the SR60?
The Intermec SR60 is a laser scanner that is available in a 
standard range (SR) version or extended long-range (XLR) 
version. The XLR version allows you to scan bar code labels from 
as far away as 11 m (36 ft) depending on the labels you are using.
To determine whether you have the SR version or XLR version, 
refer to the configuration number (C/N) on the label above the 
trigger. The scanner version of your SR60 is the sixth character of 
the configuration number:
• SR60BL. The letter “L” indicates the SR version.
• SR60BX. The letter “X” indicates the XLR version.
Unless otherwise noted, all information in this manual applies to 
both the SR and XLR versions.
Customizing Your Scanner’s Operation
You can customize your SR60 scanner’s operation using the 
programming bar codes in this manual.
• You can select and configure the settings that allow 
communication with your host terminal, such as setting the 
RS-232 baud rate and parity for the RS-232 interface. For 
help, see Chapter 2, “Configuring Interface Settings.”
• You can configure the optional prefix, suffix, and label ID to 
be sent with bar code data if your scanner is configured for the 
RS-232 or Keyboard Wedge interface. For help, see Chapter 
3, “Configuring Label Transmit Settings.
• You can select and configure bar code symbologies. You can 
give the scanner the capability to autodiscriminate as few as 
one, and as many as all available symbologies. For optimal 
scanner performance, enable only those symbologies required. 
You may also program the scanner with the standard options 
available for the symbologies, such as check digit, minimum 
label length, and fixed and variable length bar codes. For help, 
see Chapter 4, “Enabling and Configuring Symbologies.
• You can configure general features. For example, you may 
adjust the beeper volume. For help, see Chapter 5, 
“Configuring General Features.
