Chapter 3 Operation This chapter provides beeper and LED definitions, techniques involved in scanning bar codes, general instructions and tips about scanning, and decode zone diagrams. Nomenclature Nomenclature for physical features on the scanner is shown in Figure 3. Figure 3.
Operation LED and Beeper Indications The scanner’s beeper sounds and its two-color LED illuminates to indicate various functions or errors on the scanner. The tables below list these indications. One exception to the behaviors listed in the tables is that the scanner’s functions are programmable, and may or may not be turned on. For example, certain indications, such as the power-up beep can be disabled using programming bar code labels. Table 1.
Scan Mode Table 1. Beeper Functions Beeper Sequence Indication 4 short high beeps Scanner has not completed initialization. Wait several seconds and scan again. Scanner gives a power-up beep after scanning a USB Device Type. Communication with the bus must be established before the scanner can operate at the highest power level. This power-up beep occurs more than once. The USB bus may put the scanner in a state where power to the scanner is cycled on and off more than once.
Operation Scanning To scan a bar code: 1. Install and program the scanner (See “Setting Up the Scanner” on page 6.). For assistance, contact Technical Support. 2. Ensure all connections are secure. (See the host chapter for the scanner.) 3. Aim the scanner at the bar code. 4. If the scanner is in Trigger Single Mode, press the trigger button. (In Stand Mode, no trigger button press is required. The scanner laser is in constant ON mode.) Figure 4.
Aiming Do not hold the scanner perpendicular to the bar code when scanning. Laser light reflecting directly back into the scanner from the bar code can result in specular reflection, which can in turn cause difficulties with decoding. Tilt the scanner to avoid the dead zone (indicated by an ‘X’ in Figure 6) up to 65 degrees upwards or downwards. Figure 6.

Chapter 5 General Features User Preferences User preferences for the general features listed in this chapter can be selected using the programming bar codes that accompany each feature description. To set feature values, scan a single programming bar code or a short bar code sequence as instructed for each feature. The settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are preserved even when the scanner is powered down.
General Features User General Feature Defaults Table 4 lists the factory defaults for the general features described in this chapter, plus provides a place for you to log any special requirements or user-preferred settings at your installation. To change any option, scan the appropriate programming bar code(s) provided in this chapter. See Appendix B, Standard Defaults for a listing of all programmable features. NOTE Table 4.
Default Parameters Default Parameters The scanner can be reset using one of two default settings: factory defaults or custom defaults. Scan the appropriate bar code(s) below to reset the scanner to its default settings and/or set the scanner’s current settings as the custom default. Scan the Set Factory Defaults bar code below to eliminate all custom default values and return the scanner to factory default values. (For factory default values, see Appendix B, Standard Defaults.
General Features Beeper Tone To select a decode beep frequency (tone), scan the Low Frequency, Medium Frequency, or High Frequency bar code. Low Frequency *Medium Frequency (Optimum Settings) High Frequency Beeper Volume To select a beeper volume, scan the Low Volume, Medium Volume, or High Volume bar code.
Power Mode Power Mode This parameter determines whether or not power remains on after a decode attempt. When in reduced power mode, the scanner enters low power consumption mode after each decode. When in continuous power mode, power remains on after each decode. *Continuous On Reduced Power Mode Scan Mode This parameter determines whether the scanner is in Trigger Single Mode or Stand Mode. In Trigger Single Mode, the scanner trigger button must be pressed to decode each scanned bar code.
General Features Stand Mode Timeout Period The Timeout Period for the transition from low power to sleep mode can be set to one of the following durations: • 1 Hour • 5 Hours (default) • Infinite Timeout — With this setting, there is no timeout, thus the scanner will never go into sleep mode or beam shut-off but will remain in low power mode until a label is read.
Scan Line Width Scan Line Width Scan a bar code below to set the scan line width. A full scan line width is the default. The medium scan line width is useful for scanning menus or pick-lists. This feature applies to scanners in Trigger Single Mode only. NOTE *Full Width Medium Width Laser On Time This parameter sets the maximum time that decode processing continues during a scan attempt. It is programmable in 0.1 second increments from 0.5 to 9.9 seconds. The default Laser On Time is 3.0 seconds.
General Features Beep After Good Read Scan a bar code below to select whether or not the scanner should beep after a good read. If Do Not Beep After Good Read is selected, the beeper still operates during parameter menu scanning and indicates error conditions. *Beep After Good Read (Enable) Do Not Beep After Good Read (Disable) Transmit Label ID Label ID characters identify the code (symbology) type of a scanned bar code. This may be useful when the scanner is decoding more than one code type.
Prefix/Suffix Values Prefix/Suffix Values A prefix and/or suffix can be appended to scan data for use in data editing as described in the feature description, Global Prefix/Suffix on page 28. To set a value for a prefix or suffix: 1. Change the scan data format using the instructions in the feature description, Global Prefix/Suffix on page 28. 2. Scan the appropriate prefix/suffix bar code below. 3. Scan a four-digit number (i.e., four bar codes from Appendix E, Keypad) that corresponds to that value.
General Features Global Prefix/Suffix ASCII characters may be added as a prefix (in a position before the bar code data) and/ or as a suffix (in a position following the bar code data). Scan the bar code below labeled “Scan Options”, then one of the following four bar codes corresponding to the position(s) you wish to specify: • Data As Is • • • . Scan the “Enter” bar code to complete the change.

General Features FN1 Substitution Values The Wedge and USB HID Keyboard hosts support an FN1 substitution feature. When enabled, any FN1 character (0x1b) in an EAN128 bar code is substituted with a value. This value defaults to 7013 (Enter Key). To select an FN1 substitution value via bar code menus: 1. Scan the bar code below. *Set FN1 Substitution Value 2. Look up the keystroke desired for FN1 Substitution inAppendix F, ASCII Character Sets for the currently installed host interface. 3.
Chapter 6 RS-232 Introduction This chapter describes how to set up the scanner with an RS-232 host. The RS-232 interface is used to connect the scanner to point-of-sale devices, host computers, or other devices with an available RS-232 port (e.g., com port). If the host is not listed in Table 6, refer to the documentation for the host device to set communication parameters to match the host. The scanner uses TTL RS-232 signal levels, which will interface with most system architectures.
RS-232 Connecting an RS-232 Interface This connection is made directly from the scanner to the host computer. Figure 8. RS-232 Direct Connection Interface Cable Serial Port Connector to Host Power Supply Cable Interface cables vary depending on configuration. The connectors illustrated in Figure 8 are examples only. The connectors may be different than those illustrated, but the steps to connect the scanner remain the same. NOTE 1.
RS-232 Parameter Defaults RS-232 Parameter Defaults Table 5 lists the defaults for RS-232 host parameters. If any option needs to be changed, scan the appropriate bar code(s) provided in the Parameter Descriptions section beginning on page 33. See Appendix B, Standard Defaults for all user preferences, hosts, symbologies, and miscellaneous default parameters. NOTE Table 5.
RS-232 Table 6.
RS-232 Host Parameters Table 7.
RS-232 RS-232 Host Types To select an RS-232 host interface, scan one of the following bar codes.
RS-232 Host Parameters Baud Rate Baud rate is the number of bits of data transmitted per second. Set the scanner's baud rate to match the baud rate setting of the host device. Otherwise, data may not reach the host device or may reach it in distorted form.
RS-232 Parity A parity check bit is the most significant bit of each ASCII coded character. Select the parity type according to host device requirements. • Select Odd parity and the parity bit value is set to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an odd number of 1 bits are contained in the coded character. • Select Even parity and the parity bit value is set to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an even number of 1 bits are contained in the coded character.
RS-232 Host Parameters Stop Bit Select The stop bit(s) at the end of each transmitted character marks the end of transmission of one character and prepares the receiving device for the next character in the serial data stream. The number of stop bits selected (one or two) depends on the number the receiving terminal is programmed to accommodate. Set the number of stop bits to match host device requirements.
RS-232 Check Receive Errors Select whether or not the parity, framing, and overrun of received characters are checked. The parity value of received characters is verified against the parity parameter selected above.
RS-232 Host Parameters Hardware Handshaking The data interface consists of an RS-232 port designed to operate either with or without the hardware handshaking lines, Request to Send (RTS), and Clear to Send (CTS). If Standard RTS/CTS handshaking is not selected, scan data is transmitted as it becomes available. If Standard RTS/CTS handshaking is selected, scan data is transmitted according to the following sequence: • The scanner reads the CTS line for activity.
RS-232 Hardware Handshaking — cont. • RTS/CTS Option 3: When Option 3 is selected, the scanner asserts RTS prior to any data transmission, regardless of the state of CTS. The scanner waits up to Host Serial Response Time-out for CTS to be asserted. If CTS is not asserted during this time, the scanner issues an error indication and discards the data. The scanner de-asserts RTS when transmission is complete.
RS-232 Host Parameters Software Handshaking This parameter offers control of the data transmission process in addition to, or instead of, that offered by hardware handshaking. There are five options. If Software Handshaking and Hardware Handshaking are both enabled, Hardware Handshaking takes precedence. • None: When this option is selected, data is transmitted immediately. No response is expected from host.
RS-232 Software Handshaking — cont.
RS-232 Host Parameters Host Serial Response Time-out This parameter specifies how long the scanner waits for an ACK, NAK, ENQ, XON, or CTS before determining that a transmission error occurred. *Minimum: 2 Sec Low: 2.5 Sec Medium: 5 Sec High: 7.5 Sec Maximum: 9.
RS-232 RTS Line State This parameter sets the idle state of the Serial Host RTS line. Scan a bar code below to select Low RTS or High RTS line state. *Host: Low RTS Host: High RTS Beep on When this parameter is enabled, the scanner issues a beep when a character is detected on the RS-232 serial line. is issued to gain a user's attention to an illegal entry or other important event.
RS-232 Host Parameters Intercharacter Delay This parameter specifies the intercharacter delay inserted between character transmissions.
RS-232 Nixdorf Beep/LED Options When Nixdorf Mode B is selected, this indicates when the scanner should beep and turn on its LED after a decode. *Normal Operation (Beep/LED immediately after decode) Beep/LED After Transmission Beep/LED After CTS Pulse Ignore Unknown Characters Unknown characters are characters the host does not recognize. When Send Bar Codes with Unknown Characters is selected, all bar code data is sent except for unknown characters, and no error beeps sound on the scanner.

Chapter 7 Keyboard Wedge Interface This chapter describes how to set up a Keyboard Wedge interface with the scanner. With this interface, the scanner is connected between the keyboard and host computer, and translates bar code data into keystrokes. The host computer accepts the keystrokes as if they originated from the keyboard. This mode adds bar code reading functionality to a system designed for manual keyboard input. Keyboard keystrokes are simply passed through.
Keyboard Wedge Interface To connect the Keyboard Wedge interface Y-cable: Interface cables vary depending on configuration. The connectors illustrated in Figure 1 are examples only. The connectors may be different than those illustrated, but the steps to connect the scanner remain the same. NOTE 1. Turn off the host and unplug the keyboard connector. 2. Attach the modular connector of the Y-cable to the cable interface port on the scanner. (See Installing the Interface Cable on page 6.) 3.

Enable Alternate Numeric Keypad *Disable Alternate Numeric Keypad Caps Lock On When enabled, the scanner emulates keystrokes as if the Caps Lock key is always pressed.
Keyboard Wedge Interface Caps Lock Override When enabled, on AT or AT Notebook hosts, the keyboard ignores the state of the Caps Lock key. Therefore, an ‘A’ in the bar code is sent as an ‘A’ no matter what the state of the keyboard’s Caps Lock key. If both Caps Lock On and Caps Lock Override are enabled, Caps Lock Override takes precedence. NOTE Enable Caps Lock Override *Disable Caps Lock Override Convert Wedge Data When enabled, the scanner will convert all bar code data to the selected case.
Keyboard Wedge Host Parameters Function Key Mapping ASCII values under 32 are normally sent as control key sequences (see Table 10 on page 64). When this parameter is enabled, the keys in bold are sent in place of the standard key mapping. Table entries that do not have a bold entry remain the same whether or not this parameter is enabled.

Symbologies Symbology - Specific Security Levels Redundancy Level The scanner offers four levels of decode redundancy. Select higher redundancy levels for decreasing levels of bar code quality. As redundancy levels increase, the scanner’s aggressiveness decreases. Select the redundancy level appropriate for the bar code quality. Redundancy Level 1 The following code types must be successfully read twice before being decoded: Table 24.
Symbology - Specific Security Levels Redundancy Level 4 The following code types must be successfully read three times before being decoded: Table 27.
Symbologies Security Level The scanner offers four levels of decode security for delta bar codes, which include the Code 128 family, UPC/EAN, and Code 93. Select increasing levels of security for decreasing levels of bar code quality. There is an inverse relationship between security and scanner aggressiveness, so choose only that level of security necessary for any given application.
Symbology - Specific Security Levels Bi-directional Redundancy Enable Bi-directional Redundancy to add security to linear code type security levels. When enabled, a bar code must be successfully scanned in both directions (forward and reverse) before reporting a good decode.
Symbologies Symbology - Intercharacter Gap The Code 39 and Codabar bar codeogies have an intercharacter gap that is customarily quite small. Due to various bar code printing technologies, this gap may grow larger than the maximum size allowed, causing the scanner to be unable to decode the bar code. If this problem is encountered, scan Large Intercharacter Gaps to tolerate out-of-specification bar codes.
