According to the manual, NO

Startup Keys

I suppose you could try for yourself though.

Not sure where your seeing 0 - 99 but you can only have 10 start up programmed. 0 - 9

You can number fav lists from 0 - 99. Maybe that's what your thinking of?

You're apparently confusing "Start Up keys" with "Quick Keys". As Dave has noted, you can use 0-99 for Quick keys, but only 0 thru 9 are valid for startups.

I generally do not use Start Up keys. If you do use them, then whatever Start Up key you use when booting the scanner up is the only Favorites list that is active. While you can reboot the scanner & use a different Start Up key to choose a different list, there is no key sequence that can reset all of them back to On when powering up the scanner. It defaults back to the last Start Up key used. To disregard the Start key selection, & enable one or more of your other lists, you'd have to do that manually through the scanners menu.

But if you used Quick Keys instead, the Quick Keys will let you re-enable any of the other lists, in addition to the one currently active.
