Programming the Scanner

To program the scanner, you must scan a series of

programming barcodes in the correct order. In the bac of

this manual, you will see a table of alphanumeric barcodes,

which are used to program the various options presented.

To program each option, you must:

1. Scan the Program barcode on the parameter setting part.

2. Enter the option mode by scanning the Option Bar Code.

3. To the right of the option barcode, the necessary

alphanumeric inputs are listed. Scan these alphanumeric

entries from the back of the manual.

4. Scan the Finish barcode from the back of the manual.

5. Scan the Exit barcode, listed on the lower right hand

corner of each parameter setting part.

Interface Selection

The decoder in the scanner supports interfaces such as USB,

eyboard wedge, RS232 serial wedge and wand emulation.

In most of the cases, simply selecting an appropriate cable

with a device code will wor for a specific interface.

Keyboard wedge

As a eyboard interface, the scanner supports most of the

popular PCs and IBM terminals. The installation of the wedge

is a fairly simple process without any changes of software or

hardware.

Keyboard Type: Select the eyboard type connector for your

host computer. The scanner must be selected to the

appropriate host interface cable converter.

Keyboard Layout: The selecting of eyboard layout

supports many country languages other than the USA

eyboard layout.

Keyboard Speed: By selecting, you can change the output

speed of the scanner to match the host computer. This is

generally set to 00 or 01 to wor in high speed mode. If

some output characters of barcode have been lost, you may

need to set 05 or 06 to match your host eyboard speed.

Function Key Emulation: If Enabled, the scanner can

simulate pressing a function- ey in your application while the

barcode data contains an ASCII value between 01

to 1F

Refer to the ASCII table, at the end of this manual.

Numeric Key: The Keypad has to be selected if your

application program only accepts eypad numeric entries. If

enabled, the scanner will output code as if pressing the

numeric eypad. (The eypad is in the right side of eyboard,

and Num Loc control ey is also on.) If Alt+Keypad is

selected, Caps Loc and output will be independent.

Power-on simulation: It is recommended to Enable this

function if you are wor ing without a eyboard installed. It

simulates a eyboard.

Inter-character delay: This delay is inserted after each data

character is transmitted. If the transmission speed is too high,

the system may not be able to receive all characters.

Flow control:

None-The communication only uses TxD and RxD signals

without regard for any hardware or software handsha ing

protocol.

RTS/CTS-If the scanner wants to send the barcode data to

host computer, it will issue the RTS signal first, wait for the

CTS signal from the host computer, and then perform the

normal data communication. If there is no replied CTS signal

from the host computer after the timeout (Response Delay)

duration, the scanner will issue 5 warning beeps.

Xon/Xoff- When the host computer is unable to accept data,

it sends a Xoff code to inform the scanner to suspend data

transmission, and Xon to continue.

ACK/NAK- When the ACK/NAK protocol is used, the

scanner waits for an ACK (ac nowledge) or (not

ac nowledge) from the host computer after data transmission,

and will resend in response to a NAK.

Inter-character delay: It is delay time between data

character’s data output. It is also same as Inter-char. delay of

eyboard wedge.

Block transmission delay: It is a delay time between

barcode data output. It is also same as Bloc transmission

delay of eyboard wedge.

Response delay: This delay is used for serial

communication of the scanner to waiting for handsha ing

ac nowledgment from the host computer.

Scan

Scanning mode:

Good-read off-The trigger button must be pressed to

activate scanning. The light source of the scanner stops

scanning when there is a successful read or no code is

decoded after the Stand-by duration elapses.

Momentary-The trigger button acts as a switch. Press the

button to activate scanning and release the button to stop

scanning.

Alternate-The trigger button acts as a toggle switch. Press

the button to activate or stop continuous scanning.

Timeout off-The trigger button must be pressed to activate

scanning, and scanner stops scanning when no code is

decoded after the Stand-by duration has elapsed.

Continuous-The scanner always eeps reading, and it does

not matter when the trigger button is pressed or the duration

has elapsed.

Stand-by duration:

Double read timeout: If the barcode has been scanned

twice, then only the first barcode will be accepted.

Double confirm: If enabled, the scanner will require

successful decoding several times to confirm the barcode

data. If you set Double confirm, the Multi field scan Enable

function will not be able to wor .

Scan

Multi field scan: The scanner can read many sets of

barcode data on the same scanning line at the same time,

even if they are different barcode symbologies.

Global min./max. code length: Global Minimum and

Maximum length can be set to qualify data entry. The length

is defined as the actual barcode data length to be sent.

Barcodes with lengths that exceed these limits will be

rejected. Ma e sure that the Minimum length setting is no

greater than the Maximum length setting, or the barcode will

not be readable. In particular, you can set the same value for

both Minimum and Maximum reading length to force

decoding of only a fixed length barcode.

Inverted image scan: If Enabled the scanner will scan both

blac /white barcodes with white/blac bac grounds.

CTS trigger: This operation enabled an external device to

control scanning. The CTS trigger is controlled by applying

an external trigger signal to the CTS input. When active, this

signal causes scanning to begin.

Power saving: Places the scanner in an idle state during idle

time to optimize power usage.

Position indication: This function can indicate the specific

location before scanning. You can also set up the time of

indication.
