1. Abstract
This manual provides master specifications for the OPI 4002 2D barcode scanner (hereafter
referred to as “scanner”).
2. Overview
The OPI 4002 includes the following features:
•A 1.3 million-pixel (SXGA) CMOS area image sensor, and a compact camera module
with wide-angle lens that enables scanning of wider symbologies at higher resolution
•Wide-angle lens optics that make it possible to scan wider symbologies at closer
distances
•A small, high-performance, power-saving decoder that processes data faster and
provides smoother scanning of both linear (1D) and 2D symbologies
•Wireless communication compliant with IEEE 802.15.4 (an interface standard for ZigBee
physical layer and MAC layer) is the interface between the OPI 4002 and a host system
•The scanner is supplied with an IEEE 802.15.4 dongle to establish wireless
communication through the USB port of hosting hardware.
•Scanner settings can be configured by scanning menu labels.
•A lithium-ion secondary battery is used as the power supply for the scanner.
•Connect a dedicated AC adapter or an optional charger directly to the OPI 4002 to
charge the battery.

(The calculation of pitch and tilt angles is based on the skew angle
formula being β= +15°)
Notes
When a barcode is printed on glossy paper or a card case, it may cause difficulties in
scanning due to the reflection of lighting LEDs. To improve scanning performance
under these circumstances, scan the barcode with a scan angle of 15 degrees or with
lighting LEDs turned off. When scanning a barcode with lighting LEDs turned off,
confirm that there is enough ambient lighting in the room (1000 lx or higher), or
scanning performance may decline. Scanning performance may also decline if room
light reflects on the barcode surface.

8. Aiming
8.1. Aiming Patterns
During a scan, the green LED patterns shown below will be visible. These patterns assist
you in aiming the scanner; they are superimposed on the illuminated scan field. The
aiming patterns are only a guide. They do not indicate exact scannable width or distance
between a scanner and a barcode.
Figure 4: Aiming patterns
8.2. Aiming Guidelines
•The focal point is where two central LED light patterns (green and square-shaped)
overlap—where two dots meet.
•To scan a barcode within the aiming range, make sure that two central LED light
patterns overlap, then place the center of the overlapping LED light patterns on the
center of the barcode.
•To scan a barcode wider than a width of the aiming range, aim at the barcode from
further away. Make sure that the barcode is between two LED light patterns on both
the right and left.
•Scanning performance may decline due to the specular reflection when the
symbology is printed on certain types of materials. In such cases, incline the scanner
at 15 degrees to adjust the scanning angle.

9.1. Wireless Interface
Complies with IEEE 802.15.4 (ZigBee’s physical layer and MAC layer).
Item Specification Notes
Frequency 2400 MHz to 2483.5 MHz
Communication specification IEEE 802.15.4 compliant
Transmission power 0 dBm or less
Communication distance 30 m or longer Depends on the environment.
Baud rate 250 Kbps
Antenna 1/4λsurface-mounted type
Communication configuration One OPI 4002 to one OPA 1001
Encryption 128-bit encryption
9.2. IEEE 802.15.4
9.2.1. Radio Equipment
The electromagnetic wave absorption (2.4 GHz) used by this product is also
shared by various other devices. Therefore, baud rate and communication
distance may be negatively impacted, or their communications may be
disconnected, by other devices using the same absorption rate.
Baud rate and communication distance are affected by obstacles, wave
conditions, or a device at the other end.
This product is equipped with an antenna. Bringing this product too close to a
metallic object may affect communication. Anticipated interference distance is 10
m or less.
9.2.2. Frequency Band
This product uses the 2.4 GHz frequency band. Scientific, medical, and industrial
devices, including microwaves, wireless security (camera) systems and W-LAN
use the same frequency band as this scanner. Other radio stations also use this
frequency for mobile object identification, including local private radio stations that
require a license (for example, manufacturing lines at factories), specific power-
saving radio stations requiring no license, and amateur radio stations.
Interference from other devices may affect the communication speed or
communication range of this scanner or vice versa.

Communication parameter settings for the OPI 4002 can be configured by scanning
menu labels.
Refer to the instruction manual for further information about menu labels.
10.2.1. Address Registration to Connect with OPA 1001
Read an address barcode printed on the label attached to the OPA 1001 cradle.
Confirm that the OPA 1001 is connected to the OPI 4002
Note: Scanned data cannot be transmitted unless the address registration is
completed.
10.2.2. Wireless Communication Channel Settings: CH11–CH26
The wireless communication channel settings can be adjusted.
10.2.3. Data Memorizing Settings Outside the Communication Range:
DTME/DTMD
Selecting “Data Memorizing Enabled” allows the scanner to read data outside the
communication range and store the data in OPI 4002 memory. When the scanner

returns to the communication range, it will be re-connected and the temporarily
stored data will automatically be transmitted to the host.
Note: When “Data Memorizing Disabled” is selected, the scanner will not read
data outside the range.
