1. Product
1.1 Function
- Works with Plug&Play and without installation software.
- Works with most WMS systems.
- Some WMS or POS systems must be set up to use a scanner.
- Device the scanner is connected to will see it as keyboard.
- Basically the scanner scans the 95% of bar codes, remaining 5% can be set as desired with this
manual.
- There are patented parts in the scanner, DTRONIC has the rights to sell these items on the
Dutch, Belgian and German market
1.2 Unbox
After opening the box containing the product, perform the following steps:
- Remove the scanner accessories from the packaging.
- Remove the scanner from the packaging.
- At the packing list, check that everything is complete and in good condition. If there are
damaged or missing parts, save the original packaging and contact DTRONIC for customer
service.
Packing list:
1. Handheld scanner
2. USB Connection Cable (for wireless scanners, this is the charging cable).
3. Paperclip
4. Abridged user manual
1.3 Start
Startup: connect the computer to the scanner. The computer will recognize it as a keyboard and the
scanner can be used.
Power off: remove the cable connected to the scanner; remove the USB connected to the
computer.
Restart: if the scanner crashes or is unresponsive, turn it off and restart it. Optionally, use the
factory setting from this manual
1.4 Window
The scanning window must be kept clean, the supplier does not bear the warranty responsibility
due to improper maintenance. Prevent the window from wearing out or being scratched by a hard
object. Use a soft cloth to remove stain on the scanning window. Clean the scan window with a soft
cloth, such as a lens cleaning cloth
Spraying liquid on the scan window is prohibited. Prohibit all cleaning solvents except cleaning
water.

1.5 Reading
If the bar code is small, it should be closer to the scan window; if the bar code is large, it should be
further away from the scan window for easier reading.
If the bar code is highly reflective (for example, the coated surface), you may need to tilt the bar
code at an angle to scan the bar code. The best distance to read a bar code is 10-15 cm

start reading code. After reading the code successfully or releasing the trigger key, the code reading
ends and the next decoding needs to re-enter the low level state.
Level trigger mode
2.2.2 Continuous mode (default)
When the reading setting code is switched to this mode, it enters the continuous reading state. In
this mode, the "repeat read switch" can be used to prevent the same barcode from being read
more than once.

2.4 Data format setting
Length of custom prefix and suffix: (0~10) characters, if set to "on", "Code ID prefix", "custom
prefix", "end suffix", etc. will be added before and after the decoding information. "Custom suffix",
"End suffix", etc.
The maximum number of data cache is 5, and the maximum length of individual data is 7900
characters; the data output is sequential output, and you need to wait for the first barcode output
to finish before the second barcode output, and so on.
2.4.1 Custom prefix on/off settings
Custom prefixes add a user-defined string before the decoded information. For example, if you
allow to add a custom prefix and set the prefix to the string "AB", after reading the barcode with
the data "123", the scanner adds the string "AB" before the string "123", and the host side receives
"AB123". After the barcode reading data is "123", the scanner will add the string "AB" before the
string "123", and the host side will receive "AB123".
If set to "Off", the decoded information will only have the barcode data information, no prefix, and
the default value is to turn off the custom prefix output.
Enable
Disable (default)
Clear all custom prefixes

2.4.2 Customized prefixes
The custom prefix adds a user-defined string before the decoded information, and the output
format after customization is "Custom Content + Barcode Content".
Set the custom prefix to 'a' (the hex value of a is 0x61)
1. Read "Startup Settings"
2. Read the "Custom Prefix" setting code
3. Check the ASCII code of the character "a": the ASCII code of "a" is "0x61" (see ASCII code table)
4. Read data code: "6" "1" (see data code table)
5. Read "Save" (see data code table)
6. Read "Exit Settings"
Customized prefixes
2.4.3 Custom suffix on/off settings
The custom suffix adds a user-defined string after the decoded information. For example, it is
allowed to add a custom suffix and set the suffix to the string "AB", after reading the barcode with
the data of "123", the scanner adds the string "AB" after the string "123", and the host side receives
"123AB". After the barcode reading data is "123", the scanner will add the string "AB" after the
string "123", and the host side will receive "123AB".
If set to "Off", only the barcode data information will be in the decoded information, no suffix, and
the default value is to turn off the custom suffix output.
Enable
Disable (default)
Clear all custom suffixes
Output all
2.4.4 Custom suffixes
Custom suffix adds a user-defined string after the decoded information, and the output format
after customization is "barcode content + custom content".

barcode type is customizable. The Code ID for all barcodes is 1 character.
Close Code ID (default): Code ID is not spliced to the read string.
Code ID prefix: The Code ID is spliced before the recognition string.
Code ID suffix: The Code ID is spliced after the recognition string.
Restore the Code ID of all barcodes, including Codabar, to the default value of.
