Introduction
This document provides instructions for setting up barcode Reader ID and Station ID numbers
Procedure
This section assumes your scanner/reader is already programmed to work with Optifacts Tray Track. Optifacts Support will assist with configuring your scanner if needed.
Custom Configuration
Applies to scanners attached to the Job Track interface only; it does not apply to scanners connected to a terminal.
From the Optifacts main menu:
Select Option 3 – Editor Utilities and press Enter.
Select Option 6 – Configuration Editor and press Enter.
Select Option 6 – Edit Custom Configuration and press Enter.
The Custom Configuration Editor displays.
- Press “Q” to Query.
- Ensure that the table below exists.
If the table does not exist:
- Press “A” to add a new record.

- Enter through all of the remaining upper case Station ID fields.
There will be a second screen of lower case Station ID that displays.
