Quick Check 890 Verifier
The Quick Check®890 Verifier System (QC890) is a professional quality control
system for verifying the readability and standards compliance of printed linear
barcode symbols. This verification system implements an integrated approach
that consists of the Quick Check 890 Verifier unit and the Quick Check®
ImageData (QCID) software.
Quick Check ImageData
The Quick Check ImageData (QCID) program was designed for use in
conjunction with the QC890 Verifier. QCID installation software is included on
the CD-ROM that accompanies your verifier.
The QCID is the graphical interface to the Quick Check 890 Verifier. It allows
you to save verification results for later reference. For additional information
about QCID, refer to the User’s Guide or help file.
Unpacking the QC890 Verifier
After you open the shipping carton containing the product, take the following
steps:
• Check to make sure everything you ordered is present.
• Save the shipping container for later storage or shipping
• Check for damage during shipment. Report damage immediately to the
delivery carrier.

Physical Connections
A DC power barrel on the back of the unit connects to a power supply for external
power and battery charging.
The DB9 port on the unit connects to the pen wand, mouse wand, or 3800V
imager. If you are using any of these devices, refer to the QC890 User’s Guide
for additional information.
The RJ45 ten pin connector provides the RS-232 serial or USB interface to the
host. Refer to "USB Communication Interface" on page EN-2 and "RS-232
Serial Communication Interface" on page EN-4 for details on connecting your
unit.

USB COM Port Emulation
Scan the following code to program the QC890 Verifier to emulate an RS-232-
based COM Port. After connecting the QC890 Verifier and upon successful
installation of the USB driver, the driver will use the next available COM Port.
USB COM Port Emulation is the default interface for the QC890 Verifier.
Note: No additional configuration (e.g., baud rate) is necessary.
RS-232 Serial Communication Interface
An RS-232 interface requires no additional drivers. Connect the QC890 Verifier
to the host as shown in the illustration below.
RS-232 Selections
Scan the following barcode to select RS-232 communications.

The RS-232 settings are:
Bluetooth
Bluetooth implementation uses SPP (Serial Port Profile) to connect the QC890
Verifier to the host system. The QC890 SPP is a standard Bluetooth profile
implementation. This allows the QC890 system to be compatible with most
Bluetooth devices. The QC890 unit can be used with existing Bluetooth radios
built into laptops, PCs, or PDAs.
Using the QC890 Verifier with Bluetooth Devices
Note: When using USB or RS-232 interfaces, the Bluetooth communication
interface automatically turns off.
Scan the Bluetooth barcode below to enable the Bluetooth option. Default = Off.
Once the Bluetooth option is enabled, scan the appropriate barcode that follows
to connect to a PC or laptop, or a PDA/Mobility Systems device.
To establish a Bluetooth connection to a PC or a laptop, scan the barcode below,
follow the instructions supplied with your Bluetooth device to locate the QC890
Verifier, and connect to it. If you go out of range with your QC890 Verifier, the
QC890 Verifier automatically reconnects to the Bluetooth device once you come
back in range. When Bluetooth communication is enabled, the default is PC/
Laptop.
