Conﬁguration manual for EV15 scanner July 2006

This guide offers the barcodes needed for conﬁguring the RF6X1 with a EV15 linear imager.

1 The linear imager:

The Linear imager can be easily recognised by comparing it to the picture below.

Imager lens

Beam reﬂector Beam reﬂector

Also the linear imager scanner beam is a bit more blurred than the laser.

2 Basic conﬁguration codes

2.1 Enabling codes

• Resets all conﬁguration parameters to their default

values

reset factory defaults

\60\08\55\24

disable all symbologies

\60\08\55\23

• Deactivates all the symbologies activated

• Use the “not active” options to deactivate individual

symbologies

• Does not reset individual parameter settings for each

symbology (when you reactivate a symbology, you

recover the parameter settings stored in memory for

that symbology when it was disabled - use reset factory

defaults to reset all the symbology parameters to their

factory default settings)

• Use the “not active” options to deactivate individual

symbologies

• Does not reset individual parameter settings for each

symbology (when you reactivate a symbology, you

4.1 Symbology identiﬁer

• Deactivates the extended reading range for all symbologies

with this option

• If you do not use extended reading range, we recommend

deactivation to increase decode rate

Codabar - check digit (AIM recommendation) - checked

but not transmitted

\60\01\4B\2C\00\03\20\02\20\00

4.2 CLSI library system

• Spaces inserted after characters 1, 5, 10 in the 14-

character label (used in the USA by libraries using the

CLSI system)

Example: “39990000192148” is transmitted as “3 9990

00019 2148”

• Start/stop can be transmitted or not transmitted as

required

• AIM has a recommended check character for Codabar

• Each Codabar data character (including Start/Stop) has

a value assigned to it:

0 = 0 1 = 1 2 = 2 3 = 3 4 = 4 5 = 5 6 = 6

7 = 7 8 = 8 9 = 9 - = 10 $ = 11 : = 12 / = 13 ,

= 14 + = 15 A = 16 B = 17 C = 18 D = 19

• The values are added and the check is calculated:

check = [(next multiple of 16) - (sum of assigned AIM

values)]

Example

data characters: A 0 1 2 3 4 B

AIM values = 16 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 17: 43

next multiple of 16: 48

check = 48 - 43: 5

ﬁnal message: A 0 1 2 3 4 5 B

\60\01\4B\3A\00\00\00

Codabar - concatenation - transmit all codes (single,

concatenated)

\60\01\4B\3A\00\05\20

4.5 Concatenation

• 2 adjacent Codabar codes scanned in a single sweep

can be transmitted as a single message

1. Choose one of the transmission options to activate

concatenation

2. Choose a concatenation mode option to indicate

when you want adjacent codes to be concatenated

• Intermediate start/stop characters are not transmitted

(only ﬁrst start and last stop are transmitted)

Codabar - concatenation - transmit concatenated codes

only
