ScanImage Versions
The ScanImage is available with six different optical
configurations for the HP (High Performance), IP (Industrial
Performance), and seven different interfaces. Each optical
configuration is available with each interface. All part numbers
start with the digit 9. The second digit indicates the optics; the
third digit the interface. Listed below are the available Optics
and Interfaces.
Optics Available
STD Standard (91X)
VIN Wind-shield (92X)
LR Long Range (95X)
UHD Ultra High Density (96X)
XLR Extra Long Range (97X)
ULR Ultra Long Range (99X)
Interfaces Available
(9X0) - Undecoded for connection to UBI's MaxiBar
(9X1) - Wand Emulation for connection to on-line Readers
(9X2) - RS-232 for connection to a serial port, or as a dual port
device for connection on the serial communications line between
a terminal and host.
(9X3) - IBM 4683 for connection to IBM 4683 and 4684 P.O.S.
registers.
(9X5) - OCIA for connection to NCR, TEC and other P.O.S.
registers.
(9X6) - Fujitsu for connection to Fujitsu and other registers
with parallel interfaces.
(9X7) - Wedge for connection to terminals and PC's in keyboard
emulation mode.

Preparing the ScanImage for configuration
To prepare the ScanImage for configuration follow these steps:
1. Verify that the correct ScanImage cables and accessories, if
any were ordered, have been received.
2. Turn off power to the terminal to which the ScanImage will
be connected.
3. Install the ScanImage according to the instructions in the
following sections. Chapter two describes installation of
wand emulation mode, chapter three RS-232, and chapter
four wedge installation.
4. Connect the power supply, if necessary. Power up the
host according to the interface (except 9x1), the ScanImage
will beep five or six times indicating that hookup has been
completed.
5. Type on the keyboard to verify that the terminal is
transparent to the system.
6. Test the ScanImage by scanning your bar code label(s). If
further changes are required go to the appropriate family
in Part II and make the additional changes.

Special Features
Return to Factory Defaults
At any time, the ScanImage can have its settings reset to
factory defaults which are indicated by (*) asterisk throughout
the manual. By scanning the Return to Default Parameters
bar code label, the ScanImage will return back to the
indicated default settings.
Autostand
The ScanImage may be configured for use with UBI's
Autostand, which allows the scanner to work in a hands-free
mode. The ScanImage will revert to its normal method of trigger
activation when temporarily removed from the stand to read
large or bulky items.
The autostand mode is a factory installed feature that is added
to 91X UBI laser scanners. The user has the capability to enable
the autostand mode by scanning the Autostand Enable bar
code. The scanner will respond by emitting a continuous, low
level, red beam of light. The autostand mode is deactivated by
scanning Autostand Disable bar code.
Marker Beam
The Marker Beam is available on all scanimage and
automatically selected in the long range 95X, Etra Long Range
97X and Ultra Long Range 99X ScanImage. The marker beam is
a stationary spot that appears momentarily before the
ScanImage begins scanning. It shows the operator exactly
where the scanner is aimed for error-free scanning of hard-to-
target symbols. The marker beam can be disabled or enabled at
any time.

SECTION 1
1994 UBI ScanImage User's Manual Page 1-5
Special Features
Software version
By scanning this label, the Scanimage will emit a sequence of
beeps to let you hear the Prom version, and then will display
this version and the date of the prom.
Example: sequence of beeps: 2.03
3 beeps, 1 silence, 1 beep, 1 silence, 4 beeps.
The digits are incremented by one due to the zero
digit.
Master
This command designates the ScanImage as the master
enabling it to "clone" its configuration to additional ScanImage.
Slave
This command designates an unconfigured ScanImage or an
improperly configured ScanImage as a slave, and instructs it to
"clone" to its own memory the configuration in the ScanImage
master to which it is connected.
For further information on these two functions, contact UBI's
technical service.
