Programming the
8110/8150/8210
To program the 8110/8150/8210, you must scan a series of
programming barcode in the correct order. Fold out the back
cover of this manual. You will see a table of alphanumeric
barcodes, which are used to program the various options
presented.
To program each option, you must:
1. Scan the Program barcode on the parameter setting part.
2. Enter the option mode by scanning the Option Bar Code
(also on the Parameter setting part).
3. To the right of the option barcode, the necessary
alphanumeric inputs are listed. Scan these alphanumeric
entries from the back fold out page. To confirm above
steps, you must scan the Finish barcode on the back fold
out page.
4. Once you have finished programming. Scan the Exit
barcode, listed on the lower right hand corner of each
parameter setting part.

Interface Selection
This decoder build-in scanner comes in one model and
supports interfaces such as keyboard wedge, RS232 serial
wedge, wand emulation, and the latest USB interface. In
most of the cases, simply selecting an appropriate cable with
a device code will work for a specific interface.
Interface selection: You can change factory interface
default for other type interface. By plugging different cables,
setting right interface, then the scanner will be changed to
another interface. However, you must make sure which cable
you need.
Keyboard/RS232/USB Auto detection: By setting this
function, it will automatically select the Keyboard wedge or
RS-232 or UBS interface for user.

Keyboard wedge
As a keyboard interface, the scanner supports most of the
popular PCs and IBM terminals. The installation of the wedge
is a fairly simple process without any changes of software or
hardware.
Keyboard Type: Select keyboard type connector of your
host computer. Scanner must be selected to the appropriate
host interface cable converter.

Keyboard Layout: The selecting of keyboard layout
supports many country languages other than USA keyboard
layout. First you need to confirm country language that you
desire. In DOS, using command “keyb” to select the
desirable keyboard layout or in WINDOWS entry “Control”
then pops “Keyboard” to select country at “language” item.
For details, please refer to your DOS or WINDOWS user’s
manual.
Keyboard Speed: By selecting, you can change output
speed of scanner to match with host computer. Generally, set
00 or 01 in working high speed. If some output characters of
barcode have been lost, you may need to set 05 or 06 to
match your host keyboard speed.
Function Key: Set Enable, scanner can output code as
pressing function-key in your application program while the
barcode datas contain ASCII value between 0116 to 1F16.
Refer to ASCII table, page 94.
Numeric Key: The Keypad has to be selected if your
application program is only keypad numeric code acceptable.
So, scanner will output code as press numeric keypad when
it read numeric digit. (The keypad is in the right side of
keyboard, and Num Lock control key is also on.) If
Alt+Keypad is selected, Caps Lock and output will be
independent.

Caps Lock: By selecting Caps Lock or No Caps Lock,
scanner can get Caps Lock status.
Power-on simulation: All of the PCs check the keyboard
status during power-on selftest. It is recommended to Enable
function if you are working without keyboard installation. It
simulates keyboard timing and pass keyboard present status
to the PC during power-on.
Inter-character delay: This delay is inserted after each data
characters transmitted. If the transmission speed is too high,
the system may not be able to receive all characters. Adjust it
and try out suited delay to make system work properly.
Block transmission delay: It is a delay timer between
barcode data output. The feature is used to transfer
continually with shorter barcode data or multi-field scanning.

RS-232
CTS: Clear To Send (Hardware Signal)
RTS: Request To Send (Hardware Signal)
Xon: Transmit On (ASCII Code 1116)
Xoff: Transmit Off (ASCII Code1316)
Flow control:
None-The communication only uses TxD and RxD signals
without regard for any hardware or software handshaking
protocol.
RTS/CTS-If the scanner wants to send the barcode data to
host computer, it will issue the RTS signal first, wait for the
CTS signal from the host computer, and then perform the
normal data communication. If there is no replied CTS signal
from the host computer after the timeout (Response Delay)
duration, the scanner will issue a 5 warning beeps.
Xon/Xoff- When the host computer is unable to accept data,
it sends a Xoff code to inform the scanner to suspend data
transmission, and Xon to continue.
ACK/NAK- When the ACK/NAK protocol is used, the
scanner waits for an ACK (acknowledge) or (not
acknowledge) from the host computer after data transmission,
and will resend in response to a NAK.
Inter-character delay: It is delay time between data
character’s data output. It is also same as Inter-char. delay of
keyboard wedge.
Block transmission delay: It is a delay time between
barcode data output. It is also same as Block transmission
delay of keyboard wedge.
Response delay: This delay is used for serial
communication of the scanner to waiting for handshaking
acknowledgment from the host computer.

Wand Emulation
Bar/space polarity:
High/low- Black will be transmitted as a high voltage level
(+5) and space as low level (0V).
Low/high- Black will be transmitted as a low voltage level
(0V) and space as high level (+5).
Initial polarity: You must make sure what is Initial polarity of
your wand decode device in stand-by (idle). So, initial signal
state as a High voltage level (+5) or Low voltage level (0V).

Wand Emulation
Output speed: This setting is same as serial transmission
baud rate, and it must be approbated your wand decode
resolution. The unit of speed is a width of minimum narrow
bar.
Margin delay: It is a timer of zone like space zone of
barcode label margin. The width of margin time will be added
before and after in each barcode data automatically when it
is transmitted.
Transmit delay: It is a delay time between barcode data
output. It is the same as Block transmission delay of
keyboard wedge.
