2 Connecting the scanner
RS232
1) Disconnect power to the terminal/computer.
2) Connect the external power supply (DC adapter) to the serial interface cable of the scanner.
3) Plug the serial connector into the serial port on the back of your computer/terminal. Tighten the two screws to secure the connector to the port.
4) Plug the power pack into power source.
5) Once the scanner has been fully connected, turn the terminal / computer power back on.
USB (HID)
1) Connect the USB cable between scanner and PC.
2) Windows will automatically detect the USB device.
USB (Virtual-COM)
1) Install driver, USB Serial Emulation Driver, from CD-ROM, The driver will use the next available COM port number
2) Connect the USB cable between scanner and PC.
3) Windows will automatically detect the USB device.
Note: If any of the above operation is incorrect, turn off the power immediately and check any improper connections. Go through all above steps again.
3 Interface Selection
This decoder built-in scanner comes in one model and supports interfaces such as RS232 serial, USB virtual COM and USB HID. In most of
the cases, simply selecting an appropriate cable and configure the proper interface by following interface selection.
Interface selection: You can change factory interface default (USB Virtual COM ) for other type interface. By plugging different cables,
setting right interface, then scan the interface barcode, power cycle the scanner will be changed to another interface. However, you must
make sure which cable you need.

4 Aiming the Scanner
The engine has a view finder that projects a bright red or green aiming beam that corresponds to the engine’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam
should be centered over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for a good read.
The aiming beam is smaller when the engine is closer to the
code and larger when it is farther from the code. Symbologies
with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer
to the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil
size) should be read farther from the unit. To read single or
multiple symbols Linear bar code 2D Matrix symbol (on a
page or on an object), hold the engine at an appropriate
distance from the target, send a trigger command, and center
the aiming beam on the symbol. If the code being scanned is
highly reflective (e.g., laminated), it may be necessary to tilt
the code +5° to prevent unwanted reflection.
FCC: This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules, (1)
This device may not cause harmful interface, and (2) This device
must accept any interface received, including interface that may
cause undesirable operation.
BSMI : This device is compliant with requirement of BSMI and
granted ID No. R3A078
CE: This product conforms to the following standards
EMC:EN55022:2006+A1:2007, class B
EN55024:1998+A1:2001+A2:2003 This device is compliant with the requirements of the
European Union Restriction on the use of Hazardous
Substances (RoHS) Directive, 2002/95/EC.

5 Scanning mode
Scanning output: You can set the image size to a VGA resolution to accommodate older applications that require a smaller image size. When Image VGA
is set to On, the resultant image is 640x480 pixels. When Image VGA is Off, the image is 752x480 pixels.
Manual/Serial Trigger Mode: 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).
Manual Trigger, Low Power (For RS-232 only): The imager powers down until the trigger is pulled. When the trigger is pulled, the imager powers up and
operates until there is no triggering for the time set with the Low Power Time-Out bar code below. There is a delay of up to one second in operation when
the imager is first triggered, but there is no delay when operating in low power time-out mode.
Low Power Time-Out Timer:Scan the Low Power Time-Out bar code to change the time-out duration (in seconds). Then scan the time-out duration (from 0-
300 seconds) from the inside back cover, and Save. Default = 120 seconds. If the unit remains idle during the low power time-out interval, the unit goes into
low power mode. Whenever the trigger is enabled, the low power time-out timer is reset.
Presentation Mode:This programs the imager to work in Presentation mode. The LEDs are either off or at the lowest power for ambient conditions until a
bar code is presented to the imager. Then the LEDs turn on automatically to read the code. Presentation Mode uses ambient light to detect the bar codes. If
the light level in the room is not high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly.

6 Centering
Use Centering to narrow the imager’s field of view to make sure the imager reads only those bar codes intended by the user. For instance, if multiple codes
are placed closely together, centering will insure that only the desired codes are read. (Centering can be used in conjunction with Aimer Delay, for the most
error-free operation in applications where multiple codes are spaced closely together. Using the Aimer Delay and Centering features, the imager can emulate
the operation of older systems, such as linear laser bar code imagers. In the example below, the gray area is the full imager field of view and the white area is
the centering window. Bar Code 1 will not be read, while Bar Code 2 will be.
The default centering window is a 128x96 pixel area (640x480 default image size) in the center of the imager’s field of view. The following diagram
illustrates the default top, bottom, left, and right pixel positions, measured from the top and the left side of the imager’s field of view.
*Centering Off
Top of Centering Window
Left of Centering Window
Centering On
Bottom of Centering Window
Right of Centering Window
If a bar code is not within the predefined window, it will not be decoded or output by the imager. If centering is turned on by scanning Centering On, the
imager only reads codes that intersect the centering window you specify using the Top, Bottom, Left, or Right bar codes. Scan Centering On, then scan
one of the following bar codes to change the top, bottom, left, or right of the centering window. Then scan the percent you want to shift the centering
window using digits on the inside back cover of this manual. Scan Save. Default Centering = 40% for Top and Left, 60% for Bottom and Right.
