Physical Parameters Physical Parameters This chapter provides specifications for performance, environmental and electrical parameters. Reference Chapter 2, Site Preparation and Installation, for physical measurements of all models and some accessories. Scanning The scanner has a scan zone between the two windows where the scanner projects laser light in order to scan items.
Weighing Specifications for scale capacity, settling time, minimum and maximum static weight, zeroing, and warm-up time are given below. For more information regarding the topic: Proper Weighing Technique, refer to Chapter 3, Operation and Maintenance in this manual. Rated Weight Capacity The scale’s operational weight capacity is: • 30.00 pounds, displayed in 0.01 increments OR • 15.000 kilograms, displayed in 0.005 increments.
Physical Parameters Warm-Up Time There are two pertinent warm-up times that apply to the scanner or scanner/scale: The two warm-up periods can be performed concurrently, thereby reducing the total required warm-up time to 60 minutes. NOTE Thermal Equilibrium When the unit is moved from a cooler temperature (such as a storage area) to a warmer environment (such as a checkstand location), 60 minutes must be allowed to acclimate the unit to ambient conditions prior to calibration or operation.
Figure 1-3.
Electrical Specifications Power Supply Power Off the Terminal (P.O.T) Certain units can receive power directly from the terminal (P.O.T.). A USB adapter “brick” connects the scanner to IBM-USB 12V ports. Power supplied from the terminal does not include auxiliary power for alternative scales. NOTE AC Adapter Units which do not receive power directly from the terminal will use either a Listed Class 2 or Listed LPS power source which supplies power directly to the unit.
Laser and Product Safety Laser safety requirements are based on IEC Standard Publication 60825-1 (2007) and CDRH 21CFR, Chapter 1, Subchapter J and (CDRH) Laser Product Performance Standard, User information [1040.10(h)1]: • User Maintenance. No user maintenance of the laser system other than cleaning of the scan windows is required. • Radiant Energy. The scanner is an IEC Class 1 and CDRH IIa laser product. The system uses two embedded Class 3A Visible Laser Diodes (VLDs) operating at 650.
Laser and Product Safety Safety precautions to be taken: No adjustments or alteration of the scanner or scanner/scale housing are to be attempted by the user. CAUTION WARNING The failure of the facet wheel motor while the unit is continuing to emit a laser beam causes the emission levels to exceed those for inherently safe operation. The unit has safeguards to prevent this occurrence.

Chapter 2 Site Preparation and Installation This chapter provides a reference for preparing most checkstands to receive the scanner or scanner/scale. Included are physical parameters and instructions for checkstand preparation, power and ventilation considerations, cable routing information and unit installation. Site Preparation lists all procedures necessary to prepare the checkstand.
Models Scanner and scanner/scale models (reference Figure 2-1) are available in different lengths, allowing them to fit with little or no modification into openings cut for previously installed scanners such as Datalogic® Magellan® scanners, or NCR® scanner models 7820/24 and 7870. Other models are designed for applications with smaller footprint requirements. Figure 2-1 provides simplified illustrations of short, medium and long models. The appearance of your unit may vary.
Pre-Installation Considerations Figure 2-3. Produce Bar and Produce Rail Produce Bar Option Produce Rail Option Pre-Installation Considerations It should be noted that the scope of this manual does not encompass all factors related to worker safety and checkstand design. It does, however, offer a list of considerations that may be helpful in ensuring greater safety and productivity. Careful planning using these general guidelines should result in a more efficient, comfortable work environment. The U.S.
Checkstand Design 1. Select a design which allows load-sharing by several muscle groups (for example designs which allow the cashier to use both hands for scanning and bagging). 2. Select checkstands which deliver products to the cashier on an input belt and do not require the unloading of items from a cart. These designs put less stress on the cashiers’ shoulders and back. 3. Minimize the distance between the input and take-away conveyors (i.e., the distance the cashier has to reach to move the products).
Scanner Installation Scanner Installation 1. Mount the horizontal surface of the scanner flush with the countertop to encourage slide scanning rather than lifting. 2. Position the centerline of the scanner read area 8 - 10 inches (20.3 25.4 cm) from the edge of the checkstand (cashier side). Scanner Maintenance 1. Keep scanner windows clean. This will improve productivity and reduce rescans. 2. Replace scanner glass when excessive scratches are evident.
• Develop a smooth fluid motion during scanning, sharing work equally between hands. • Use the entire hand for grasping and lifting items. • Since the scanner reads labels on all four sides plus the top and bottom, there is no need to turn a bar code toward either of the scanner windows. • Develop efficient scanning motions, not necessarily faster hand movements. Simply slide the item across the scanner’s horizontal window with as little orientation motion as necessary.
Site Preparation Overview Recommended Power Installation — Since the typical grocery envi- ronment includes conveyor belts and electric motors, care should be taken to ensure that the scanner has a supply of “clean” power (power without excessive electrical noise). A wiring diagram shows the recommended wiring that will provide the scanner with a “clean” source of power. Refer to Figure 2-6.
unavoidable, an alternate method of platter removal using two coins may be employed, however a minimum vertical clearance of 1.5” (3.8 cm) MUST be provided (reference Figure 2-4). Another consideration is that the scan zone must be kept free of obstructions such as enclosures, keyboard mounts, etc. Figure 2-4. Vertical Clearance DO NOT Obstruct L-Platter Removal (Keyboard Mount) DO NOT Obstruct Scan Zone Allow a minimum clearance of 1.5" (3.
Ventilation and Spacing • A source of air that provides adequate cooling by convective air flow. DO NOT place the scanner in a close-fitting, fully enclosed checkstand. Provide a MINIMUM of 16 square inches (103.2 square centimeters) of air intake from below the installation for sufficient convective cooling. NOTE If motors, conveyor belts, or other heat producing equipment are located near the scanner, forced air ventilation may be required. In most installations, a 30 cfm (.
Service Access The scanner and scanner/scale have been engineered to allow performance of all routine service and maintenance (such as “zeroing” and calibration) without removing the scanner from the checkstand. Additionally all cable connections made at the scanner can be connected and removed while the unit is sitting on the countertop. The installer should provide service access to all remaining cable connectors as well as the AC/DC Power Supply (if installed).
Power Installation Power Installation Reference the wiring diagram in Figure 2-6 for the recommended fusing arrangement. Grounding The AC/DC Power Supply should have an AC outlet with a clean earth ground. If you are not sure how to verify the amount of electrical noise (interference) on the power line, ask a qualified electrician to measure the input line voltage. Figure 2-6.
Checkstand Preparation Reference Figure 2-7. When performing a first time installation into a new checkstand, verify before cutting that room will be allowed for cabling, the AC/DC Power Supply, and any EAS peripheral equipment (such as controller boxes, etc.). When making the opening, take extra care to accurately cut to the correct dimensions. Mounting may require installation of support(s), countertop routing, or other such devices.
Counter Cutout Liquid Spills and Moisture Select a checkstand design which allows fluids to flow through, and directs liquids away from any electronic equipment or storage areas. Counter Cutout The most important consideration when planning the counter opening for the scanner is the operator’s comfortable reaching distance. The ideal, ergonomically sound installation allows items to be directed within easy reach, and a scanning area requiring no lifting or special orientation of items.
3. Install the AC/DC Power Supply, the Remote Scale Display cable (if Remote Display is used) and the interface cable(s) observing the following: Interface cables (and display cable, if applicable) should be routed away from all highly inductive electrical devices, like motors and conveyor belts, and even away from the unit’s power cable if possible. Cables should be easy to remove in the event that replacement is required. A little planning now will save a lot of frustration later. 4.

Installation Overview Checkstand Mounting There are a number of things to take into account when installing the unit into a checkstand. Key factors are ergonomic/worker safety, loading capacity and stability. Consider the scanner or scanner/scale’s weight when calculating the robustness of construction needed to support it as well as maximum capacity of weighed and scanned items. NOTE If you choose to rout a countertop with a thickness of 0.75” (1.
6. Functional testing to verify operation when connected to the POS system. The following text describes each of these steps. Unpacking To unpack the unit: • Inspect the package for signs of damage that may have occurred during shipping. If damage is found, report it to your carrier immediately. • Lift out the accessory box containing the AC/DC Power Supply, optional Remote Scale Display and cable (if present), and the Quick Reference Guide.
Installation Overview Figure 2-19. Remove Protective Vinyl Protective vinyl MUST be removed from the platter before use. • Proceed to the Operational Verification instructions below. Operational Verification Follow these steps to ensure that your unit has arrived undamaged and is fully functional before installing it in the counter and connecting it to your POS system. 1. EAS units ONLY: It could be necessary that EAS connections be made previous to power-up.
When power is applied to the unit, the normal indicator sequence is: • The scanner indicator (top-most, green LED) will be lit (dim) steadily. • The 7-segment display will flash the number ‘8’. indicating initialization. • If the Selftest detects a problem, the 7-segment display will display a number code. Refer to Chapter 4, Problem Isolation, for a description of failure codes and problem isolation procedures.
Installation Overview Scanner — Pass UPC/EAN bar code labels in front of the scanner’s win- dows. Since the interface cable is not yet connected to the POS terminal, the scanner may be limited to reading only one or two labels (see the note that follows). The scanner indicates when each label has been successfully read by flashing the green scanner light and emitting a good read tone (beep). Some host interface types may “chirp” instead of beeping.
Diagnostic Modes Two diagnostic modes are available which allow you to initiate scanner or scale diagnostic tests, as well as verify the scanner’s ability to read bar codes. Scanner Diagnostic Mode While in Scanner Diagnostic Mode, continuous scanning of labels is allowed, permitting the user to scan an unlimited number of bar codes while troubleshooting problems. Under normal operation, the scanner stores label data, awaiting the signal which transmits it to the host.
Installation Overview Scale Diagnostic Mode To enter Scale Diagnostic Mode, press the Scale Zero Push Button for approximately four seconds. Six rapid tones will be sounded, indicating the unit is leaving normal operation and entering Scale Diagnostic Mode. The Remote Display will flash a ‘1’ across the display while the dignostic routine is being run. When diagnostics are completed successfully, the display will indicate that the unit has passed the diagnostic test by displaying PASS .

Remote Scale Display Placement/Installation Figure 2-21 provides physical dimensions for the AC/DC Adapter (part number 8-0582). Figure 2-21. Physical Measurements: AC/DC Adapter 1.23" (3.1 cm) 1.97" (5 cm) 5" 3.3 m) c (8.5 Remote Scale Display Placement/Installation The modular Remote Display is designed so that single display heads can be stacked to form a dual display as shown in Figure 2-22a in order to address the specific viewing needs of both the customer and the cashier.
Viewing Angle The optimum display angle is directly facing the viewer. Tilt and rotatioin adjustments can be made as shown in Figure 2-22b. To ensure that displays are easily readable for customers/cashiers of average height, display heads should be between 48” to 60” (122 to 152 cm) from the floor. Check with local Weights and Measures authorities regarding proper positioning of scale displays used in retail trade. NOTE Figure 2-22.
Remote Scale Display Placement/Installation Remote Display Cabling Your installation should also take into account the routing of Remote Display cabling. Ensure that distance and obstacles spanned by the routed cable will not kink, pinch or stretch it. Also keep in mind you may need to drill a hole through which to route it. NOTE The Remote Scale Display connector end may be secured with a rubber band during shipping to prevent damage to the “locking tabs” (see Figure 2-24).

Changing Weighing Modes Your scanner/scale has been programmed for weighing in either pounds or kilograms depending upon the initial operating environment that was specified when you ordered your scanner/scale. If you need to change from pounds to kilograms or vice-versa, call technical support. You can verify that the scale is set correctly for your country’s requirements by observing that the Remote Scale Display shows the appropriate measurement symbol (lb or kg) when the power-up Selftest is completed.
Set-Up & Installation If you have a scanner with no scale, there will be only one interface cable to the POS terminal. 4. Connect the power cord to the scanner and route the other end down through the checkstand to the AC power outlet. DO NOT plug the power cord in at this time. Figure 2-26. Connecting Cables to the Scanner/Scale Control Panel Service Loop Scanner Right Profile Scanner Left Profile 0.00 EAS Port EAS PORT Aux.
Installation 1. Make sure that all cables are firmly attached (except that the AC/ DC power supply should not be connected to the AC outlet yet). Reference Figure 2-7 and Figure 2-26. 2. Remove the platter to gain access to the interior lift handle. Grasp the platter in the positions shown in Figure 2-27 and gently lift it from the scanner. If the top edge of the platter is blocked, you may find it easier to grasp the platter vertical bezel as shown in Figure 227b.
Set-Up & Installation 3. Rotate the Interior Lift Handle up as shown in Figure 2-28 and hook the fingers of both hands in the lift handles indicated. DO NOT attempt to lift the unit using the plastic edges, scale frame, or any features other than the lift handles. 4. Lower the unit into the counter opening, ensuring that none of the cables are pinched, pierced or crimped. 5. Re-install the Platter and verify that it is flush or just below flush with the countertop.
Adaptive Scale Platter Option Some Platters have been shipped with installed spacers on their undersides at all four corners. These specially-configured Platters are provided for customers wishing to add an adaptive scale to their unit at a later date. Until such time as the adaptive scale is installed, the four spacers should be left in place to ensure that the Platter rests evenly at its correct height when positioned on the scanner.
System Power-Up Recap System Power-Up Recap The System Power-Up procedure may vary depending upon the requirements of your POS system. It is generally a good practice to power-down (switch off ) all equipment prior to connecting cables. Check with your System Supervisor and/or refer to your POS terminal manual for proper power-down and power-up procedures and interface requirements when connecting any peripheral device.
6. Power-up the scanner or scanner/scale by connecting the power cord to an AC power outlet. Wait for the unit to complete the Self test routine (10 seconds maximum). Successful scanner power-up is signified by any or all of the following: - Facet wheel shows movement - Lasers turn on - Status LED(s) turn on - Speaker sounds tone(s) - Remote display [if present] shows message - A single red dot is visible on the 7-segment display 7. Power-up the POS terminal.
Chapter 3 Operation and Maintenance The information contained in this chapter describes how to operate and maintain the scanner, and optional scale and EAS systems. Topics include “how to’s” on scanning, EAS label deactivation, weighing, re-zeroing the scale, removing the top cover and cleaning the upper and lower windows. Scanning Items To scan items using the scanner, slide or push them through the scan zone as shown in Figure 3-1.
Figure 3-1. Scan Zone Note that eyes... ...indicate what the scanner "sees." Vertical Window Scan Zone Horizontal Window Scan Zone Checker Side Scan Zone Proper Scanning Technique The scanner was designed to provide the ultimate in ergonomic enhancements for Point-Of-Sale (POS) scanning. To take advantage of these advancements: Practice the techniques below to improve scanning efficiency: 3-2 • Move the product across the horizontal window (See Figure 3-1).
• Develop efficient scanning motions, not necessarily faster hand movements. • Learn typical locations for bar codes on packages; avoid “flipping” or rotating the items during scanning. • Learn how the scanner functions and where the scanning area is located. Deactivating Security Labels EAS (Electronic Article Surveillance) labels can be detected and deactivated by a system equipped with this option. This is accomplished by means of a deactivation antenna mounted under the scanner platter.
Proper Weighing Technique 1. The L-shaped All-Weighs™ platter allows you to place items anywhere on its surface, including leaning against its vertical section, to be weighed accurately. The “Produce Rail” or (when raised) the “Produce Bar” also provide a convenient way to ensure items do not rest on the counter or other non-weighing surfaces. (Reference Figure 3-2.) It is important that items rest entirely on the platter for their full weight to be accurately recorded. NOTE Figure 3-2.
Operational Controls Operational Controls The function of scanner and scale controls and indicators is listed in Appendix A, LED/Beeper Indications & Controls. Turn to that appendix for full details. Operational Modes The scanner or scanner/scale features a number of modes that are important to both the user and the system support personnel. These modes can be combined into three groups: pre-operational, operational, and additional functions.
Error Reporting If a fatal error is detected during Selftest or operation, the unit will not advance to Normal Operation Mode. Selftest diagnostics will cause the unit to sound a long, low tone and/or display an error message on the 7segment display indicating where the failure occurred. These messages are coded to assist the repair technician in identifying the failed component. If an error is indicated, make note of it and contact your supervisor or technical support representative.
Operational Modes • When the scanner or scanner/scale completes its Selftest successfully, it emits a tone (when configured to do so) and enters Operating Mode. Operating Mode Operating Mode includes Normal Operation (scanning, EAS deactivation and weighing) and Sleep Mode. These two modes are most commonly observed by the user/operator. Normal Operation This condition is indicated by the scanner green LED being on dim and steady.
Sleep Mode After the scanner has been left idle for a preset period of time, the laser and/or motor automatically turns off (goes to sleep). This state is called Sleep Mode, and is indicated by a “slow” blink of the green light (blinking at a 2-second rate). To wake up the unit, press anywhere on the weigh platter (scanner/scale models only), press the Volume Selection switch or wave your hand over the horizontal window.
Additional Functions Scanner and Scale Reset The reset procedures and indicators are identical for scanner and scanner/ scale models. As with any electronic equipment, it is sometimes necessary to reset the electronics. The reset procedure allows you to initiate a reset command to the scanner. This may be necessary if the POS terminal has been switched off or the store system has been reset while the unit is on. Reset can also be used to initiate and run the unit’s internal Selftest routine.
With the scanner/scale powered-up and at operating temperature: 1. Remove everything from the weighing surface of the scanner/scale. 2. Press the Scale Zero Push Button. (See Figure 1-1). 3.

Chapter 4 Problem Isolation In the event of a suspected functional problem, use the troubleshooting references provided in this chapter. This useful information will help you to identify and resolve the cause of the problem. The scanner/scale has a number of features that indicate when a scanner or scale problem occurs.
Operational Tests These are the tests that run continually during Normal Operation and Sleep Mode. Firmware checks all subsystems, accessory connections and the POS interface to verify everything is operating normally. If a problem is detected at any time, a long, low tone is sounded, an error code is shown on the 7-segment display, and operation may be halted. If you press the Volume/Tone Push Button at that time, a series of tones will be sounded that matches the error code displayed.
Error Codes Error Codes If an error is detected, the scanner will sound a long low tone (for one second) and alternately flash its LEDs, indicating a failure. Following the long low tone, an error code will appear on the 7-segment display (refer to Figure 4-1). Pressing the Volume/Tone Push button will cause the scanner to sound a series of beeps corresponding to that error code. Table 4-1 on the following page describes what these codes mean and what action should be taken for each.

Chapter 5 Calibration A number of situations require the scale to be calibrated. They are: • at initial installation of the scanner/scale • if the scale cannot be re-zeroed • if you change the weight measure from pounds to kilograms or viceversa • if diagnostics indicate a calibration error • the weigh module has been replaced Follow the procedures on the following pages to ensure that the scanner/ scale will meet Weights and Measurement requirements.
Description of Calibration Sequence The Calibration Sequence sets the scale to an accurate reference point for weighing. This process involves the use of a Field Standard Weight Set (31.5-pounds) for calibration in pounds, (18.5-kilograms) for Metric. Once calibration has been successfully completed, the scanner/scale uses the certified weight as a reference for subsequent weighing activities. These verification procedures follow the U.S.
Motion Test • Lead/Wire or Paper Seal (as required by law). Motion Test This test verifies that the scale will not ‘zero’ when the weighing surface of the scanner/scale is in motion. 1. Verify that the Yellow LED1 is on and the Remote Display reads 0.00 pounds or 0.000 kilograms. 2. Press lightly on the weigh platter of the scanner/scale with one hand and at the same time press and release the Zero Push Button on the operator’s panel.
Preparing the Scanner/Scale for Calibration 1. Assure that the scanner/scale is stable, secure and properly installed. (Refer to Chapter 2, Site Preparation and Installation, for instructions on the proper installation of the scanner/scale). 2. Power-up the scanner/scale. 3. Allow the unit to reach temperature equilibrium for at least one hour. If the scanner/scale is already at room temperature, allow at least 15 minutes for acclimatization. 4.
Calibrating the Scale (Pounds & Kilograms) Figure 5-1. Calibration Switch Access Spider Calibration Switch 4. Press and release the Calibration Switch to place the scanner/scale in Calibration Mode. The scanner/scale will sound a tone indicating it is in Calibration Mode. If the motor was spinning when you initiated Calibration Mode, the motor will stop and the Yellow LED will begin flashing indicating the scale is in Calibration Mode. The display will show the message “ESCL” (empty scale). 5.
8. The Yellow LED will extinguish for approximately 10 seconds and the Remote Display will alternately display and until the scale is ready to proceed. 9. If the calibration was successful, the speaker sounds a single tone, the Scale Status LED begins blinking again, and “End-” appears in the Remote Display. 10.
Calibration Verification (U.S. Pounds) Calibration Verification (U.S. Pounds) Once you have completed the calibration sequence, you may be required to perform these step-by-step verification procedures. These procedures follow the National Institute of Standards and Technology Handbook-44 guidelines for grocery scale installations. You may be required by state or local law to have these procedures performed by a certified technician or verified by a proper official.
Shift Test The Shift Test checks to ensure that items placed anywhere on the weighing surface of the scanner/scale are weighed properly. Refer to Figure 5-2 when performing this test. 1. Place and remove in succession, a ten-pound load on the center of each of the four quadrants (1, 2, 3, and 4 in Figure 5-2) of the scanner/scale’s weigh platter. Verify that a reading of between 9.99 and 10.01 lb registers under load and that the display returns to 0.00 between each load. 2.
Calibration Verification (U.S. Pounds) Increasing- Load Test (Phase 2) After completing the Shift Test, you must complete the Increasing Load Test using 20.0, 25.0 and 30.0 pounds of weight. NOTE The upper limit of the scale is configurable according to POS interface type and may not necessarily be set at 30 pounds, which is the standard setting. For this test, continue to place weights in five pound increments only up to the upper weight limit set for your scale. 1.
Decreasing-Load Test This test ensures that the scanner/scale responds properly when a heavy object is followed by a significantly smaller object. 1. Place a 30.0-pound load on the scale and verify that the display shows between 29.99 and 30.01 pounds. If the upper weight limit for your scale is not set at 30 pounds, begin by placing weight equaling your upper limit setting. NOTE 2. Remove weights to leave 20 pounds on the scale. Check that the display shows between 19.99 and 20.01. 3. Remove another 15.
Calibration Verification (Kilograms) Calibration Verification (Kilograms) Once you have completed the calibration sequence, you may be required to perform these step-by-step verification procedures.

Chapter 6 Programming Introduction to Label Programming The programming bar code labels contained in this manual will allow you to customize and configure features and settings for your scanner (scanner/scale). To ensure full compatibility and proper function, use only the programming bar codes in this manual and other product-specific publications to program scanner features.
Integrating the Scanner With Your Host System Your scanner MUST be equipped with the correct hardware (interface board, cable, etc.) to properly communicate with your host system. Contact your dealer for information if you have questions about your scanner’s hardware compatibility. You may also want to contact the dealer or your system administrator if you have no record of how your scanner was pre-programmed at the factory.
Integrating the Scanner With Your Host Sys- • CAUTION Interface Related Features — are the mandatory settings necessary to allow communication with your host terminal. Examples of these settings are: RS-232 baud rate and parity. It is possible, via programming bar codes, to change the interface type (for example: from RS-232 to IBM Port 17).
Programming Overview The scanner’s programmable feature settings can be modified to accommodate your system’s unique requirements. These settings can be communicated to the scanner in one of three ways: 1. Commands can be sent directly from the host. A limited set of host commands are available. Refer to Appendix D for more details or contact Tech Support. 2. Programming bar code labels can also be used to modify the scanner’s programmable settings.
Programming Overview What Is Programming Mode? Programming Mode is a state in which the scanner must be placed in order to accept commands via programming bar code labels. When programming using the bar code labels in this manual, the scanner is typically placed in Programming Mode by scanning the SWITCH label. While in the Programming Mode, the scanner only recognizes ONLY the special programming bar codes contained in this programming guide.
Programming Session A typical programming session is conducted as follows: 1. Scan the SWITCH bar code to place the scanner in Programming Mode. Depending upon its current programming, the scanner may emit a beep or beeps, indicating it has read the bar code and the scanner (top) green LED will flash on and off slowly while the scanner remains in Programming Mode. Normal scanning functions are disabled. 2. Scan the programming bar code(s) that is (are) specially encoded to make the desired changes.
Programming Overview NOTE It is recommended that programming sessions be limited to one feature at a time. Should you make a mistake in the programming sequence, it can be difficult to discover where an error has been made if several features are programmed at once. Additionally, it can be confusing to determine which features may or may not have been successfully set following such a session. 3. Scan the SWITCH bar code to save any new settings and exit Programming Mode.
Programming Sequence To modify a scanner feature (item), the programming bar codes contained in this manual must be scanned in a given sequence depending upon the feature being programmed (as shown in Table 6-1). There are three possible programming sequences: NOTE If the scanner’s interface type must be changed, always be sure that interface configuration is the FIRST item scanned during a programming session.
Programming Overview Table 6-1. Programming Sequence SET A ITEM TAG ITEM VALUE END/RESET 1 2 3 SWITCH ENABLE NEW FEATURE SWITCH 1 2 345 6 0 B SWITCH C ENABLE NEW FEATURE USING THE FOLLOWING SETTINGS...
LED and Beeper Indicators The scanner provides a set of indicators that verify/announce the various scanner functions. If You Make a Mistake... If, during a programming session, you find that you are unsure of the scanner’s settings or wish to reset the scanner’s configuration, use the Return to Factory Settings label below to return the scanner’s configuration to the factory settings. Scanning this label will also reset any changes made during previous programming sessions.
If You Make a Mistake... Test Mode Use this feature to place the scanner into a testing, or “demo” mode. This special mode disables the scanner interface, meaning that bar code data is not sent out to the host via the scanner interface. This allows the bar code to be scanned continuously without requiring a response from the POS terminal. To return the scanner to normal function, scan the TEST MODE = DISABLE bar code below.
General Scanner Features Scanner Button Options Allows configuration of the scanner (volume) button to different modes of operation. • Disable Scanner Button — Disables all button functions • Enable Standard Functions — Enables volume, tone, and reset. • Enable Reset Only — The button’s sole function will be to reset the scanner.

Appendix G Handheld Data Format Requirements This appendix provides application notes to describe the general format of data that can be accepted by the scanner through the auxilliary port as transmitted from a handheld scanner. Handheld Data Format Requirements General • 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity. • RTS is used to "bracket" the data received from the handheld: RTS must be asserted high during data transmission, and de-asserted after label transmission is complete.
Datalogic Handheld Data Format Requirements The following sections describe label transmission formats that are typically observed in factory configurations of Datalogic handheld scanners. DataBar Omnidirectional • Prefix must be ASCII characters ‘R4’ • Check character must be included in label • Application identifier “01” must follow the prefix and preceed the base label • Label length excluding prefix characters must be 16 characters.
