Using This Manual
This manual contains bar codes used to program the ICR803.
For initial setup, product identification, and general product information, please refer to
the following manuals:
ICR803 Quick Start Manual
ICR803 Command & Communication Guide
Plug and Play Bar Codes
Plug and Play bar codes provide instant engine set up for commonly used interfaces. Please note
that the ICR803 interfaces are configured by the factory at time of order. These bar codes are
therefore used to default the scanner to get back to the factory setup.
RS-232
The RS-232 Interface bar code is used when connecting to the serial port of a PC or terminal. The
following RS-232 Interface bar code also programs a carriage return (CR) and a line feed (LF)
suffix, baud rate, and data format as indicated below:
Option Setting
Baud Rate 115200 bps
Data Format 8 data bits, no parity bit, 1 stop bit
RS-232 Interface
USB HID
Scan the following code to default the USB version of the ICR803 for USB HID bar code
imagers. Scanning this code changes the terminal ID to 131.

USB COM Port Emulation
Scan the following code to program the USB version of the ICR803 to emulate a regular RS-232 based
COM port. If you are using Microsoft Windows, you will need to install the USB Driver for the scanner.

Reread Delay
This sets the minimum amount of time before the imager can read the same bar code a second time.
Setting a reread delay protects against accidental rereads of the same bar code. Longer delays are
effective in minimizing rereads in POS (Point Of Sale) applications. Use shorter delays for applications
where repetitive scanning is required. (Default = Medium)

User-Specified Good Read Delay
If you want to set your own length for the good read delay, scan the bar code below, then set the delay (from
0-30,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from Appendix D, then scanning Save.
Trigger Modes
Manual/Serial Trigger
You can activate the imager either by providing an external hardware trigger, or using a serial
trigger command. When in manual trigger mode, the imager scans until a bar code is read, or until
the hardware trigger is released.
When in serial mode, the imager scans until a bar code has been read or until the deactivate
command is sent. In serial mode, the imager can also be set to turn itself off after a specified time
has elapsed (see Read Time Out, which follows).
Read Time Out
Use this selection to set a time out (in milliseconds) of the imager’s trigger when using serial
commands to trigger the imager, or if the imager is in manual trigger mode. Once the imager has
timed out, you can activate the imager either by pressing the trigger or using a serial trigger
command. After scanning the Read Time Out bar code, set the time out duration (from 0-300,000
milliseconds) by scanning digits from Appendix D, then scanning Save. Default = 0 (infinite, or no
time out).
