2
Scanning the Enter Setup/Exit Setup barcode can
enable barcode programming. After barcode
programming is enabled, you can scan a number
of programming barcodes to configure your
scanner. Barcode programming is on by default.
In real application, programming barcodes hardly
overlap witnh on- programming barcodes, so it
is unnecessary to d isable programming each
time you finish the configuration.

Defaults

Scanning the following barcode can restore
the scanner to the factory defaults.
You may need to reset your scanner when:
1. scanner is not properly configured so that it
fails to decode barcodes;
2. you forget previous configuration and want
to avoid its impact;
3. functions that are rarely used have been
enabled for the time being.

Scan Mode
Example: Set the decode session timeout to 5s
1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
2. Scan the Decode Session Timeout barcode.
3. Scan the numeric barcode “5”. (See the Digit
Barcodes section in Appendix)
4. Scan the Save barcode. (See the Save/Cancel
Barcodes section in Appendix)
5. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.

Decode Session Timeout

Decode Session Timeout: This parameter sets the
maximum time decode session continues during a
scan attempt. It is programmable in 1s increments
from 1s to 255s. The default timeout is 15s. If the
parameter is set to 0, the decode session timeout is
infinite.
Manual Mode:A trigger pull activates a decode
session. The decode session continues until the
barcode is decoded or the trigger is released or
the decode session timeout expires.

Continuous Mode
Continuous Mode
Continuous Mode: A trigger press activates the
scanner to scan and decode at user-specified
intervals, i.e. the timeout between decodes. Each
decode session lasts until barcode is decoded or
the decode session timeout expires. To
suspend/resume the operation, simply press
the trigger. By default, the scanner rereads
same barcode with no delay.
Decode Session Timeout: This parameter sets the
maximum time decode session continues during a
scan attempt. It is programmable in 1s increments
from 1s to 255s. The default timeout is 15s. If the
parameter is set to 0, the decode session timeout is
infinite.
Example: Set the decode session timeout to 5s
1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
2. Scan the Decode Session Timeout barcode.
3. Scan the numeric barcode “5”. (See the Digit
Barcodes section in Appendix)
4. Scan the Save barcode. (See the Save/Cancel
Barcodes section in Appendix)
5. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.

Timeout between Decodes
Timeout between Decodes:This parameter sets
the timeout between decode sessions. When a
decode session ends, next session will not
happen until the timeout between decodes
expires. It is programmable in 0.1s increments
from 0.0s to 25.5s. The default timeout is 1.0s.
Example: Set the timeout between decodes to 5s
1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
2. Scan the Timeout between Decodes barcode.
3. Scan the numeric barcodes “5” and “0”.
(See the Digit Barcodes section in Appendix)
4. Scan the Save barcode. (See the Save/Cancel
Barcodes section in Appendix)
5. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.

Reread Delay
*Reread Same Barcode
Reread Same Barcode
with a Delay
Reread Delay sets the time period before the
scanner can read the same barcode a second time.
It protects against accidental rereads of the
same barcode. This parameter is programmable
in 0.1s increments from 0.1s to 25.5s. The default
delay is 3.0s. If the parameter is set to 0, the delay
is infinite.
Note: This parameter only applies when the Reread
Same Barcode with a Delay is enabled.
Example: Set the reread delay to 5s
1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
2. Scan the Reread Delay barcode.
3. Scan the numeric barcodes “5” and “0”.
(See the Digit Barcodes section in Appendix)
4. Scan the Save barcode. (See the Save/Cancel
Barcodes section in Appendix)
5. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.

Sense Mode
Decode Session Timeout
Sense Mode
Sense Mode: The scanner activates a decode
session every time when it detects a change in
ambient illumination and meets the requirement
of the image stabilization timeout. Decode
session continues until barcode is decoded or
the decode session timeout expires. A trigger
pull can also activate a decode session. By
default, the scanner rereads same barcode with
no delay.
Decode Session Timeout: This parameter sets the
maximum time decode session continues during a scan
attempt. It is programmable in 1s increments from 1s to
255s. The default timeout is 15s. If the parameter is set
to 0, the decode session timeout is infinite.
Example: Set the decode session timeout to 5s
1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
2. Scan the Decode Session Timeout barcode.
3. Scan the numeric barcode “5”. (See the Digit
Barcodes section in Appendix)
4. Scan the Save barcode. (See the Save/Cancel
Barcodes section in Appendix)
5. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.

Image Stabilization
Image Stabilization Timeout: The scanner
waits for the image stabilization timeout
to expire before activating a decode session
every time it detects a change in ambient
illumination. This parameter is programmable
in 0.1s increments from 0.0s to 25.5s. The
default timeout is 0.4s.
Example: Set the Image Stabilization Timeout
to 5s
1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
2. Scan the Image Stabilization Timeout
barcode.
3. Scan the numeric barcodes “5” and “0”.
(See the Digit Barcodes section in Appendix)
4. Scan the Save barcode. (See the
Save/Cancel Barcodes section in Appendix)
5. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.
Reread Delay sets the time period before the
scanner can read the same barcode a second time.
It protects against accidental rereads of the
same barcode. This parameter is programmable
in 0.1s increments from 0.1s to 25.5s. The default
delay is 3.0s. If the parameter is set to 0, the delay is
infinite.
Note: This parameter only applies when the
Reread Same Barcode with a Delay is enabled.

*Reread Same Barcode
with No Delay
Reread Same Barcode with No Delay: The scanner
is allowed to reread same barcode, ignoring the
Reread Same Barcode with a Delay: The scanner
is not allowed to reread same barcode before the
reread delay expires.
To disable rereads of same barcode, enable the
Reread Same Barcode with a Delay and set the delay
to 0.
Example: Set the reread delay to 5s
1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
2. Scan the Reread Delay barcode.
3. Scan the numeric barcodes “5” and “0”.
(See the Digit Barcodes section in Appendix)
4. Scan the Save barcode. (See the Save/Cancel
Barcodes section in Appendix)
5. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.

Sensitivity: This parameter specifies the degree
of acuteness of the scanner’s response to
changes in ambient illumination. The higher the
sensitivity, the lower requirement in illumination
change to trigger the scanner. You can select an
appropriate degree of sensitivity that fits the
ambient environment.

Sensitivity levels range from 0 to 255. The smaller
the number, the higher the sensitivity.

Command Trigger Mode
Command Trigger Mode
Command Trigger Mode: Decode session is
activated by a host command. The decode
session continues until the barcode is decoded or
the decode session time out expires.
Decode Session Timeout: This parameter sets the
maximum time decode session continues during a
scan attempt. It is programmable in 1s increments
from 1s to 255s. The default timeout is 15s. If the
parameter is set to 0, the decode session timeout
is infinite.

and decoding efficiency.

Chapter 2 Communication Settings
Introduction
RS-232 Interface
The scanner provides an RS-232 interface, a USB
interface and a PS/2 interface (hardware version:
V2 or higher) to communicate with the host
device. The host device can receive scanned data
and send commands to control the scanner or to
access/alter the configuration information of the
scanner via the RS-232 or USB or PS/2 interface.
Serial communication interface is usually used to
connect the scanner to a host device (like PC,
POS). When the scanner is connected to a host
device through its RS-232 interface, you need
to set communication parameters to match the
host device.
