Newland Auto-ID Support Center
If you have a problem with your equipment, contact the Newland Support Center in your region. Before call-
ing, have the model number, serial number, and several of your barcodes at hand.
Call the support Center from a phone near the scanning equipment so that the service person can try to talk
you through your problem. If the equipment is found to be working properly and the problem is barcode
readability, the Support Center will request samples of your bar codes for analysis at our plant.
If your problem cannot be solved over the phone, you may need to return your equipment for servicing. I f
that is necessary, you will be given specific directions.
Note: Newland Auto-ID Tech. is not responsible for any damages incurred during shipment.

About EM1300
Introduction
EM1300 is an embedded barcode reading engine. Its gray scale CCD image capturer and the Newland
patented UIMG, a Computerized Image Recognition System, ensure the fast scanning and decoding accuracy
on different barcode media such as paper, plastic card, and metal surface. It can be easily integrated into
OEM equipments or systems (hand-held, portable, and mounted) to provide solutions for image capture,
barcode reading, and barcode message processing.
Highlights of the EM1300
Compact design allowing easy integration into OEM equipments and systems.»
Outstanding decoding performance for major 1D barcodes.»
High performance CPU ensuring fast and accurate scans.»
Easy OEM software development and firmware upgrade.»

Unpacking
Remove EM1300 and accessories from the package. Check for missing parts and inspect for damage.
EM1300 is packed in anti-static bag. Please handle accordingly.
Outline of EM1300
The outline of EM1300 is shown in Figure 1. The topside has the electrical control components, including a
flexible cable socket, Interface Socket, through which EM1300 interfaces with external device.
The front side has the optical components, such as Image Lens, through which EM1300 captures image,
Illumination Light, which sends a linear, red light beam for illuminating and aiming.
The bracket covers the sides and bottom of the Engine. Two mounting holes on the bottom side are available
for mounting the Engine to external device.
The back side is CCD circuit for image capture.
If there is any damage or missing parts, please contact your supplier at once. Keep the origi-
nal package for return services, if necessary.

Interface Socket
EM1300 uses a 12-pins flex cable socket to interface with external device (Host), such as EVK3000 V2, the
EM1300 Evaluation Kit. Figure 5 below shows the socket. For reference purpose, the EM1300 Evaluation
Kit uses a connector to connect the flex cable.
Interface SocketFigure 5.
Interface Cable
A 50 mm flexible cable is included in the EM1300 package. Both of the two ends are 12 PINS. One connects
to the EM1300 interface socket, the other connects to external device. Figure below shows how the cable is
connected to the interface socket.
