INTRODUCTION
This menu book is intended for setting up your
bar code reader to optimize its performance for
your particular application. When the required
options have been configured, they remain in
the reader, even after power down. The reader
can be returned to factory default by reading
the default label.
Menu labels
The reader must be set by reading the bar code
labels in the menu table. The layout of the table
is explained in next figure 0.01.
Besides options, some chapters have
commands. The commands need to be
scanned directly, without reading the “SET” and
“END” labels. The commands are executed
directly and, unlike options, are not stored in
non volatile memory.

Configuring via the menu book
To configure the required options proceed as
follows:
• scan the SET label
• scan the required option(s)
• scan the END label
After scanning the END label, the new settings
are stored in non volatile memory.
Recommended steps to follow for quick
configuration
After checking your connection you are ready
to start the configuration of your reader.
• Check connection:
Ensure that the power is disconnected from
your equipment before you connect the reader.
After connecting the data cable, the power can
be applied to the equipment and the reader.
•1:
Use chapter 1 to set the correct default for your
reader.
* The reader is now in factory default.
•2:
Use chapter 2 to optimize the interface.
* The reader is now able to read bar codes and
transmit the data.
•3:
Use chapter 3 to optimize the reader for the
type of bar codes you use. Set the readable
codes first and then the options for each of
these codes.
* The reader is now able to read the codes you
selected, validate the data using length and
check digit and transmit that part of the data
you specified.
•4:
Use chapter 4 to select the string options for
your application. These include transmission of
code length, conversion of upper and lower
case and setting a prefix and suffix.
* The reader can now read and transmit the
data in the required format.
•5:
Use chapter 5 to select the read options to your
preference. These options affect the read
mode, read time, trigger and redundancy.
•6:
Use chapter 6 to select the indicator options
you prefer. These options affect the operation
of the buzzer and good read LED.
* The reader will now operate to your personal
preference.

Configuring via RS232
In the middle column of the menu pages the
command is printed, e.g. U2. These commands
can be sent to readers with an RS232 interface.
To configure via the RS232 port proceed as
follows:
• transmit <ESC><Command string 1><CR>
• transmit <ESC><Command string 2><CR>
• transmit <ESC><Command string n><CR>
• transmit <ESC>Z2<CR>
<ESC>
<ESC> is the ASCII escape character (Hex
1B).
<Command string>
<Command string> is the ASCII command with
its parameters as would be scanned from the
menu book, i.e. <ESC>M41B<CR> configures
the ASCII control code <STX> as the prefix for
Code 39.
Example in hexadecimal format:
1B 4D 34 31 4B ØD
Each 3-character command should be
preceded with the '[' character (Hex 5B) i.e.
<Esc>[BCC<CR> is used to enable Data
Matrix.
Each 4-character command should be
preceded with the ']' character (Hex 5D) i.e.
<Esc>]DIAU<CR> is used to disable auto
connect.
<CR>
<CR> is the ASCII CR character (Hex ØD).
Z2
Some options are not immediately active, like
baud rate settings. Most other options are
immediately active, but the command Z2 must
be send to store the settings to non volatile
memory.
The following commands may be used to:
Command B sound a good read beep
Command E sound an error beep
Command G motor off
Command H motor on
Command L switch on good read LED
Command N switch on bad read LED
Command O switch on both LEDs
Command Y de-trigger the reader
Command Z trigger the reader
Command P disable the laser
Command Q enable the laser
The characters transmitted must be separated
by an intercharacter delay to allow the reader to
process each character received and to
execute the command string.
Configuring via OptiConfigure
OptiConfigure is the interactive Universal menu
book version. With OptiConfigure it is possible
to create your own personal setup sheet on-
line. OptiConfigure supports Opticon bar code
readers which can be configured with this
Universal menu book. In addition OptiConfigure
offers product specific and less often used
menu labels. Based on the product and
software version selected, OptiConfigure will
show these specific options.
OptiConfigure can be accessed via the Opticon
home page (www.opticon.com). From there
select the OptiConfigure button.

2. INTERFACE
This chapter describes the configurable
transmission options for your reader. Some
options may not be relevant to the type of
reader you have. An attempt to configure the
reader for such options does not affect its
operation and usually results in the reader
producing an error tone, indicating you tried to
make an illegal configuration entry.

2.1. RS232 options
This paragraph describes the specific options
for a reader with an RS232 interface.
Bar code readers with an RS232 interface are
normally supplied with either a DB25 or DB9
female connector. Both connectors are fitted
with an external power connector. See figure
2.01 or 2.02.
Other connectors and/or connections are
available by special order.
Pin functions as seen from the bar code reader.
FG:
Frame Ground: This is normally connected to
the "chassis ground" at the host computer. In
the RS232 specification the use of FG is
optional.
TxD:
Transmitted Data: Transmits data from the
reader to the host. This connection is
mandatory.
RxD:
Received Data: Receives data from the host to
the reader. This connection is required if you
want to send commands to the bar code reader
or if software handshaking or
acknowledgement control is used.
RTS:
Request To Send: A general purpose output to
the host, used for hardware flow control. This
connection is optional.
CTS:
Clear To Send: A general purpose input to the
bar code reader, used for hardware flow
control. This connection is optional.
SG:
Signal Ground: Reference point for power
supply and interface signals. This connection is
mandatory.

2.1.3. Handshaking
Data flow control is available using either
hardware (Modem, Busy/Ready) or software
(XON/XOFF). In addition, an optional
acknowledgement control is available (ACK/
NAK with or without error response). Flow
control may be combined with
acknowledgement control. The RS232 voltage
levels employed by most readers for
transmission are either -10V (OFF) or +10V
(ON).
1. No handshake:
Does not employ any handshaking: data is
transmitted regardless of the control signals.
This option will undo any handshake and flow
control options selected.
2. Busy/ready:
The reader's RTS is ON as soon as the power
is supplied to the reader and will stay ON while
the reader can receive data from the host. The
host will keep the reader's CTS ON while it is
ready to receive data from the reader. While
CTS is ON the reader is able to transmit data.
The reader will abort transmission with an error
indication of the buzzer when the CTS is not
ON within a certain configurable period. The
reader may drop RTS to OFF during
transmission if it can not receive data
simultaneously. See figure 2.04.
3. Modem mode:
The reader's RTS is OFF as soon as power is
supplied to the reader. The reader will turn RTS
ON when it wants to transmit data to the host.
The host should respond by putting CTS ON
when it is ready to receive data. While CTS is
ON the reader is allowed to transmit data.
When all data has been transmitted, the reader
will turn RTS OFF. In response, the host should
turn OFF the reader's CTS. If, while RTS is ON,
the CTS line is not ON for a certain
configurable period, the reader will terminate
the transmission with an error indication of the
buzzer. See figure 2.05.
4. XON/XOFF:
The reader sends data until an XOFF (ASCII
DC3, Hex 13) character is received from the
host. Only when the reader receives an XON
(ASCII DC1, Hex 11) character, the reader
continues to send its data.
5. ACK/NAK:
After data has been transmitted, the reader
expects to receive one of the following
responses from the host:
Response: "ACK" (ASCII: Hex Ø6)
Action: The reader completes transmission with
the good-read buzzer.
Response: "NAK" (ASCII: Hex 15)
Action: The reader sends the data again.
Response: "DC1" (ASCII: Hex 11)
Action: The reader completes transmission
without a good-read or error buzzer.

Response: "None"
Action: If there is no response within one
second then the reader terminates
transmission with an error buzzer. See figure
2.06.
6. ACK/NAK no response:
The difference from the ACK/NAK mode is that
when no response from the host is received
within 100 ms, the reader assumes that the
data has been received correctly by the host.
Response: "ACK" (ASCII: Hex Ø6)
Action: The reader completes transmission with
the good-read buzzer.
Response: "NAK" (ASCII: Hex 15)
Action: The reader sends the data again.
Response: "DC1" (ASCII: Hex 11)
Action: The reader completes transmission
without a good-read or error buzzer.
Response: "None"
Action: If there is no response within 100 ms
then the reader terminates transmission with a
good read buzzer. See figure 2.07.
