Chapter 2 Getting Started About the Reader One distinctive feature offered by the reader is a very wide scan angle which can read long linearbar codes, such as utlity bills. Whether used in Single Trigger or Continuous Mode, the ergonomic design of the reader will help to promote comfortable handling during extended periods of use. The reader can communicate using the following interfaces: RS-232 — The reader can communicate with a standard or Wincor-Nixdorf (W-N) RS- 232 host.
PAGE 16
Getting Started Setting Up the Reader Follow the steps provided in this section to connect and get your reader up and communicating with its host: 1. Install the Interface Cable 2. Select the Interface Type 3. Configure Interface Settings (only if not using factory settings for that interface) 4. Configure Other Features (if modifications are needed from factory settings) Install the Interface Cable The reader kit you ordered to match your interface should provide a compatible cable for your installation.

Setting Up the Reader Using the Programming Bar Codes This manual contains feature descriptions and bar codes which allow you to reconfigure your reader. Some programming bar code labels, like Resetting the Product Configuration to Defaults on page 10, require only the scan of that single label to enact the change. Most of the programming labels in this manual, however, require the reader to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code once to enter Programming Mode.

Chapter 9 Data Editing Data Editing Overview When a bar code is scanned, additional information can be sent to the host computer along with the bar code data. This combination of bar code data and supplementary user-defined data is called a “message string.” The features in this chapter can be used to build specific userdefined data into a message string. There are several types of selectable data characters that can be sent before and after scanned data.
PAGE 78
Data Editing ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE Please Keep In Mind... • Modifying a message string is not a mandatory requirement. Data editing is sophisticated feature allowing highly customizable output for advanced users. Factory default settings for data editing is typically set to NONE. • A prefix or suffix may be applied (reference the Symbologies chapter for these settings) across all symbologies (set via the Global features in this chapter).
PAGE 79
Global AIM ID ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE Global AIM ID This feature enables/disables addition of AIM IDs for all symbology types.

The first character in the pair is the character that will be converted. The second character in the pair is the character to convert to. If the character to convert in a pair is FF, then no conversion is done. See Character Conversion on page 266 for more detailed programming instructions.

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.
PAGE 264
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.
PAGE 265
Disable Character 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. NOTE Setting to previously defined characters such as XON, XOFF, or host commands conflicts with normal operation of these characters. 8-bit 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.
PAGE 266
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. NOTE Setting to previously defined characters such as XON, XOFF, or host commands conflicts with normal operation of these characters. 8-bit data is not recognized when the option Data Bits has been set as 7 Data Bits. To set this feature: Determine the desired character or value.
PAGE 267
Wedge Quiet Interval Wedge Quiet Interval This option specifies the amount of time to look for keyboard activity before the reader breaks the keyboard connection in order to transmit data to host. The selectable range for this feature is from 0 to 990ms in 10ms increments. This feature applies ONLY to the Keyboard Wedge interface. NOTE Follow these instructions to set this feature: 1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds. 2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments).
PAGE 268
References 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. This feature applies ONLY to the Keyboard Wedge interface. NOTE To set the delay: 1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds. 2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments).
PAGE 269
Intercode Delay Intercode Delay Specifies the delay between labels transmitted to the host for this interface. The selectable range for this feature is from 0 to 99 seconds. Follow these instructions to set this feature: 1. Determine the desired setting. 2. Pad the number with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc 3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to enter Programming Mode. 4. Scan the bar code: SELECT INTERCODE DELAY SETTING. 5.

Global AIM ID Global AIM ID This feature enables/disables addition of AIM IDs for all symbology types. NOTE AIM label identifiers (as opposed to custom characters you select yourself as with label identifiers) can be included with scanned bar code data. AIM label identifiers consist of three characters as follows: • A close brace character (ASCII ‘]’), followed by... • A code character (see the table below), followed by... • A modifier character (the modifier character is symbol dependent).

References Character Conversion Character conversion is an eight byte configuration item. The eight bytes are 4 character pairs represented in hexadecimal ASCII values. The first character in the pair is the character that will be converted. The second character in the pair is the character to convert to. If the character to convert in a pair is FF, then no conversion is done.
PAGE 277
Decoding Levels Decoding Levels Decoding Levels are used to configure a bar code symbology decoder to be very aggressive to very conservative depending on a particular customer’s needs. • Choosing Level 1 results in a very conservative decoder at the expense of not being able to read poorly printed or damaged labels. • Choosing Level 5 results in a very aggressive decoder.

Appendix C LED and Beeper Indications The reader’s beeper sounds and its LED illuminates to indicate various functions or errors on the reader. An optional “Green Spot” also performs useful functions. The tables below list these indications. One exception to the behaviors listed in the tables is that the reader’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.
PAGE 300
LED and Beeper Indications INDICATION DESCRIPTION LED BEEPER Reader beeps four times at highest frequency and volume upon power-up. Power-up Beep The reader is in the process of powering-up. Good Read Beep A label has been successfully scanned by the reader. ROM Failure There is an error in the reader's software/programming Flashes Reader sounds one error beep at highest volume. Limited Scanning Label Read Indicates that a host connection is not established when the USB interface is enabled.
PAGE 301
Error Codes Error Codes Upon startup, if the reader sounds a long tone, this means the reader has not passed its automatic Selftest and has entered FRU1 isolation mode. If the reader is reset, the sequence will be repeated. The following table describes the LED flashes/beep codes associated with an error found.
