# Configuration of the Scanner

In this menu, scanner configurations can be added. Scanners can be configured to either have scanned strings handled by the controller, or passed through to a an external system. When the scanned string is passed through, the controller does not select a task based on the string, but instead passes the string to an external device via an output signal.

## Adding a scanner and enabling pass through

1. On the home view, go to the Configurations tab, select Scanner on the left pane and select the plus icon in the upper-right corner of the screen.

2. Give the scanner configuration a name.

3. To enable pass through, select Edit, and set Pass Through Mode to On.
