Getting Started
Turn off the computer’s power before connecting the base, then
power up the computer once the base is fully connected. When the
base is connected and powered up, put the imager in the base to
establish a link. The green LED on the base flashes to indicate the
imager’s battery is charging.

Reading Techniques
The view finder projects an aiming
beam that should be centered over
the bar code. (The 4820/4820i can
be positioned in any direction for a
good read.)
Hold the imager over the bar code,
pull the trigger, and center the
aiming beam on the bar code.
The aiming beam is smaller when
the imager is closer to the code and larger when it is farther from the
code. Hold the imager close to smaller bar codes, and farther away
from large bar codes to get a proper read.
If the bar code is highly reflective (e.g., laminated), you may need to
tilt the imager at an angle so the bar code can be scanned.

Note: If the imager beeps 3 times when scanning a bar code, the link
has not been established. If the imager beeps once, the link
has been established.
Standard Product Defaults
This bar code resets all standard product default settings.

Keyboard Country
Scan the Program Keyboard Country bar code below, then scan
the numeric bar code(s) from the back of this sheet, then the Save
bar code to program the keyboard for your country. As a general
rule, the following characters are not supported by the imager for
countries other than the United States:
@ | $ # { } [ ] = / ‘ \ < > ~.
Note: For complete list of country codes, see the User’s Guide for
your product at our website, www.honeywellaidc.com.

Open Link
Scan the Open Link bar code, then place the imager into the base to
establish a link. Placing a different imager into the base establishes
a new link and the old imager is unlinked.
Override Locked Imager
If you need to replace a broken or lost imager that is linked to a base,
scan the Override Locked Imager bar code with a new imager, and
place that imager in the base. The locked link will be overridden; the
broken or lost imager’s link with the base will be removed, and the
new imager will be linked.
Unlinking the Imager
If the base has an imager linked to it, that imager must be unlinked
before a new imager can be linked. Once the previous imager is
unlinked, it will no longer communicate with the base. Scan the
Unlink Imager bar code to unlink an imager.

Trigger
The following bar codes will allow you to use the reader in Manual
Trigger mode (need to press the trigger to read) or Presentation
mode (the reader is activated when it “sees” a bar code).
Streaming Presentation™ (4820/4820i)
Note: Streaming presentation mode applies only to units with
advanced illumination. Units with advanced illumination have
a software revision of 31205481-027 or higher.
When in Streaming Presentation mode, the imager leaves the scan
illumination on all the time and continuously searches for bar codes.

Reread Delay
This sets the time period before the imager can read the same bar
code a second time. Setting a reread delay protects against
accidental rereads of the same bar code.
Suffix
If you want a carriage return after the bar code, scan the Add CR
Suffix bar code. To add a tab after the bar code, scan the Add Tab
Suffix bar code. Otherwise, scan the Remove Suffix bar code to
remove the suffixes.

Add Code ID Prefix to all Symbologies
Scan the following bar code if you wish to add a Code ID prefix to all
symbologies at once.
Note: For complete list of Code IDs, see the User’s Guide for your
product at our website, www.honeywellaidc.com.
Function Code Transmit
When this selection is enabled and function codes are contained
within the scanned data, the imager transmits the function code to the
terminal. Charts of these function codes are provided in your User’s
Guide. When the imager is in keyboard wedge mode, the scan code
is converted to a key code before it is transmitted.
