Chapter 5 References This section contains explanations and examples of selected bar code features. See Configuration Using Bar Codes, starting on page 21 for the actual bar code labels used to configure the reader. RS-232 Parameters............................................................................................................... RS-232 Only........................................................................................................... RS-232/USB COM Parameters......................
References RS-232 Parameters RS-232 Parameters RS-232 Only Baud Rate Baud rate is the number of bits of data transmitted per second. Set the reader's baud rate to match the baud rate setting of the host device. With an improper baud rate setting, data may not reach the host correctly. Stop Bits 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.
RS-232 Parameters References RS-232/USB COM Parameters Intercharacter Delay This parameter specifies the intercharacter delay between the end of one character and the beginning of the next. The delay can be set within a range of zero (0) to 990 milliseconds in 10ms increments. A setting of zero specifies no delay. To set the delay: 1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds. 2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments). Pad the result with leading zeroes to yield two digits.
References RS-232 Parameters ACK NAK Options This enables/disables the ability of the reader to support the RS-232 ACK/NAK protocol. When configured, the reader and/or host sends an “ACK” when it receives data properly, and sends “NAK” when the data is in error. Options are: • Disable • Enable for label transmission — The reader expects an ACK/NAK response from the host when a label is sent. • Enable for host-command acknowledge — The reader will respond with ACK/NAK when the host sends a command.
RS-232 Parameters References NAK Character This setting specifies an ASCII character or hex value to be used as the NAK character. ASCII characters or any hex value from 0 to 0xFF can be selected. Setting to previously defined characters such as XON, XOFF, or host commands conflicts with normal operation of these characters. 8bit data is not recognized when the option Data Bits has been set as 7 Data Bits. To set this feature: 1. Determine the desired character or value. 2.
References RS-232 Parameters ACK NAK Timeout Value This option specifies the amount of time the reader waits for an ACK character from the host following label transmission. The selectable timeout range is 200 milliseconds to 15,000ms (15 seconds) in 200ms increments. A selection of 0 disables the timeout. To set this value: 1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds. 2. Divide the desired setting by 200 (setting is in 200ms increments). Pad the result with leading zeroes to yield two digits.
RS-232 Parameters References ACK NAK Retry Count This feature specifies the number of times the reader retries a label transmission due to a retry condition. The selectable range is from 1 to 254 retries. A selection of 0 disables the count, and a selection of 255 specifies unlimited retries. To set this feature: 1. Determine the desired setting. 2. Pad the number with leading zeroes to yield three digits. For example: 0 = 000, 5 = 005, 20 = 020, etc. 3.
References RS-232 Parameters Disable Character Specifies the value of the RS-232 host command used to disable the reader. ASCII characters or any hex value from 0 to 0xFF can be selected. Setting to previously defined characters such as XON, XOFF, or host commands conflicts with normal operation of these characters. 8bit data is not recognized when the option Data Bits has been set as 7 Data Bits. To set the value: 1. Determine the desired character or value.
RS-232 Parameters References Enable Character Specifies the value of the RS-232 host command used to enable the reader. ASCII characters or any hex value from 0 to 0xFF can be selected. Setting to previously defined characters such as XON, XOFF, or host commands conflicts with normal operation of these characters. 8bit data is not recognized when the option Data Bits has been set as 7 Data Bits.

Appendix B Aimer Calibration The Scan Modules in the GFS4400 series contain a laser-based aiming system consisting of four corner dots and a center crosshair pattern that helps define the reading volume. The center cross location in the imager's Field Of View (FOV) is recorded and logged in the system's nonvolatile memory (calibration process), and facilitates the Central Code Only operation.
Aimer Calibration FA - Aiming Write Coordinates. Writes specified coordinates into the factory non-volatile memory area. Use this command if you wish to override any other previously written; factory, user or custom calibration or setting. Examples shown use the terminal window tool provided within Datalogic Aladdin configuration utility (available from the Datalogic website), or any other serial terminal utility.
Auto Calibration To Auto Calibrate the scanner, do the following: 1. Position and steady the reader in front of a plain flat sheet of paper or surface at a Depth of Field (distance) that is most appropriate for the application. 2. Send the command $Fx. The reader will turn the aimer on for an instant, then beep.
