Mounting Information, continued Specular Zone The IT3900 must be mounted at a 5 degree, or greater, angle to the bar code in order to scan properly: The scanner is now connected and ready to communicate with your terminal/PC. You must program the scanner for your interface before bar code data can be transmitted to your terminal/PC. If you are using the scanner as a keyboard wedge, turn to page 2-1. If the scanner is connected via a serial port, turn to page 2-8.
The following Plug and Play bar code for IBM XT and Compatibles also programs a carriage return (CR) suffix. IBM XT and Compatibles The following Plug and Play bar code for IBM PS-2 and Compatibles also programs a carriage return (CR) suffix. IBM PS-2 and Compatibles Use Non Decoded Output Laser Emulation when connecting to a secondary terminal with integral decoding. This also sets the transmission rate to 36 scans per second and the polarity to white high.
Option Setting Data Format 7 data bits, parity bit, 1 stop bit (8 bit data) RS-232 Interface In Wand Emulation mode, the scanner decodes the bar code then sends data in the same format as a wand scanner. The Same Code format transmits UPC, EAN, Code 128 and Interleaved 2 of 5 bar codes without any changes, but converts all other symbologies to Code 39.
Note: After scanning one of these codes, you must re-boot the cash register.

2 Terminal Interfaces Keyboard Wedge Connection IT3800/3900 scanners are factory programmed for a keyboard wedge interface to an IBM PC AT with a USA keyboard. If this is your interface and you do not need to modify the settings, skip to Chapter 3 - Output. If you programmed the scanner for a different terminal interface and/or you want to change to an IBM PC AT and Compatibles Keyboard Wedge interface, scan the bar code below.
Terminal ID If your interface is not a standard PC AT, refer to "Supported Terminals" on page 2-3 through page 2-4, and locate the Terminal ID number for your PC. Scan the Terminal ID bar code below, then scan the numeric bar code(s) on the inside back cover of this manual to program the scanner for your terminal ID. Scan Save to save your selection. For example, an IBM AT terminal has a Terminal ID of 003. You would scan the Terminal ID bar code, then 0, 0, 3 from the inside back cover, then Save.

Keyboard Country Scan the Program Keyboard Country bar code below, then scan the numeric bar code(s) from the inside back cover, then the Save bar code to program the keyboard for your country.
Shift Lock is used when you normally have the Shift Lock key on (not common to U.S. keyboards). Shift Lock Automatic Caps Lock is used if you change the Caps Lock key on and off. The software tracks and reflects if you have Caps Lock on or off (AT and PS/2 only). This selection can only be used with systems that have an LED which notes the Caps Lock status. Automatic Caps Lock Emulate External Keyboard should be scanned if you do not have an external keyboard (IBM AT or equivalent).
Turbo Mode: The scanner sends characters to an IBM AT terminal faster. (For use with IBM AT only.) If the terminal drops characters, do not use Turbo Mode. Default = Off Turbo Mode On * Turbo Mode Off Numeric Keypad Mode: Sends numeric characters as if entered from a numeric keypad. Default = Off Numeric Keypad Mode On * Numeric Keypad Mode Off Automatic Direct Connect: Use this selection if you are using a laptop whose keyboard is disabled when you plug in the scanner.
Serial Port Connection All communication parameters between the scanner and terminal must match for correct data transfer through the serial port using RS-232 protocol. Scanning the RS-232 interface bar code, programs the scanner for an RS-232 interface at 9600 baud, even parity, 7 data bits, 1 stop bit (8 bit data), and adds a suffix of a CR LF. RS-232 Interface 1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer. 2. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the scanner.
Baud Rate Baud Rate sends the data from the scanner to the terminal at the specified rate. The host terminal must be set for the same baud rate as the scanner. Default = 9600.
RS-232 Word Length: Data Bits, Stop Bits, and Parity Data Bits sets the word length at 7 or 8 bits of data per character. If an application requires only ASCII Hex characters 0 through 7F decimal (text, digits, and punctuation), select 7 data bits. For applications which require use of the full ASCII set, select 8 data bits per character. Default = 7. Stop Bits sets the stop bits at 1 or 2. Default = 1. Parity provides a means of checking character bit patterns for validity. Default = Even.

RS-232 Handshaking RS-232 handshaking is a set of rules concerning the exchange of data between serially communicating devices. Default = RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF and ACK/ NAK Off RTS/CTS On * RTS/CTS Off XON/XOFF On * XON/OFF Off ACK/NAK On * ACK/NAK Off Wand Emulation Connection In Wand Emulation mode, the scanner decodes the bar code then sends data in the same format as a wand scanner. The Code 39 Format converts all symbologies to Code 39.
Note: For the 3800PDF model: When the 3800PDF interface is set to wand emulation, all PDF417 bar code data is transmitted as Code 128. Data from other symbologies follow the rules described above. Wand Emulation Transmission Rate The Transmission Rate is limited by the terminal’s ability to receive data without dropping characters. Default = 25 inches/second.
Wand Emulation Polarity The Polarity can be sent as standard with black bars high, or reversed with white bars high. Default = Black High. * Black High White High Wand Emulation Idle The idle describes the state of the scanner when no data is being transmitted. When in Wand Emulation mode, you must set the scanner’s idle state to match the idle state for the device to which the scanner is connected. Default = Idle High.
PDF417 Wand Emulation Note: The following Wand Emulation functions are for use with the 3800PDF-12 scanner only. Data Block Size This transmits the PDF417 data in smaller blocks to prevent buffer overflow. Default = 60. 20 40 * 60 80 Delay Between Blocks This sets the delay time between data blocks. Default = 50ms.
Overall Checksum When this option is turned on, a computed check character is added at the end of the entire message. The check character is the character which when Exclusive-OR’d with every preceding character of the message yields a result of 0x00 (00H). Default = Off.
3 Output Scan Rate Adjusting the scan rate changes the current draw when scanning. The slower the scan rate, the lower the current draw. (The standby current remains the same.) Scan speeds are 270 s/s, 135 s/s, and 67 s/s. A scan speed of 270 draws the highest power and has the best performance. A scan speed of 135 has a medium draw with medium performance. A scan speed of 67 draws the lowest power and has the lowest performance. Default = 270 s/s.
Beeper Tone Default = Normal. * Normal Beep Short Beep Scan Voting This sets the number of times the same bar code has to be read before it is transmitted to the terminal. Normal uses the default values listed for the symbologies in the Default Charts beginning on page 12-5. High doubles the votes used below the threshold. Default = Voting Normal. * Voting Normal Voting High Reduce Quiet Zone Reducing the quiet zone requirements below AIM guidelines makes it possible to read off-spec bar codes.
Reread Delay This sets the time period before the scanner can read the same bar code a second time. Setting a reread delay protects against accidental rereads of the same bar code. Longer delays are effective in minimizing accidental rereads at POS (point of sale). Use shorter delays in applications where repetitive bar code scanning is required. Default = Short. Reread Delay only works when in automatic trigger mode (see page 3-4).
Good Read Delay This sets the minimum amount of time before the scanner can read another bar code. Default = No Delay. * No Delay Short Delay Medium Delay Long Delay Trigger Mode Manual/Serial Trigger: You can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trigger command (see "Trigger Commands" on page 124). When in manual trigger mode, the scanner scans until a bar code is read, or until the trigger is released.
Serial Trigger Time Out: Use this selection to set a time out (in quarter seconds) of the scanner’s trigger when using serial commands to trigger the scanner. Once the scanner has timed out, it must be triggered again either serially or manually. After scanning the Serial Trigger Time Out bar code, set the time out duration (from 0-1200 quarter seconds) by scanning digits from the inside back cover, then scanning Save. Default = 0 (infinite, or no time out).
Presentation Mode: The LEDs are off until a bar code is presented to the scanner. Then the LEDs turn on automatically to read the code. Presentation Mode uses normal office or store ambient light to detect the bar codes. Presentation Mode Note: Do not use Presentation Mode with a 3800/3900PDF. Normal office or store ambient light does not provide enough illumination for the IT3800/ 3900PDF to work properly in Presentation Mode.
4 Data Editing Prefix/Suffix Overview When a bar code is scanned, additional information is sent to the host computer along with the bar code data. This group of bar code data and additional, user-defined data is called a “message string.” The selections in this section are used to build the user-defined data into the message string. Prefix and Suffix characters are data characters that can be sent before and after scanned data.
Step 3. Scan the 2 hex digits from the Programming Chart inside the back cover or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies. Step 4. Determine the hex value from the Decimal to Hex to ASCII Conversion Chart (page 4-6) for the prefix or suffix you wish to enter. Step 5. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back cover. Step 6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 for every prefix or suffix character. Step 7. To add the Code I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 0. To add AIM I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 1.
To Add a Carriage Return Suffix to all Symbologies Scan the following bar code if you wish to add a Carriage Return Suffix to all symbologies at once. This action first clears all current suffixes, then programs a carriage return suffix for all symbologies.

Function Code Transmit When this selection is enabled and function codes are contained within the scanned data, the scanner transmits the function code to the terminal. Charts of these function codes are provided in Section 10, Supported Interface Keys. When the scanner is in keyboard wedge mode, the scan code is converted to a key code before it is transmitted. Default = Enable.
Note: If you make an error while scanning the digits (before scanning Save), scan Discard on the back cover, scan the Intercharacter Delay bar code, scan the correct digits, and Save again. Prefix Scanned Data 1 2 3 4 Suffix 5 Intercharacter Delay Intercharacter Delay To remove this delay, scan the Intercharacter Delay bar code, then set the number of steps to 00. Scan the SAVE bar code from the inside back cover.
Interfunction Delay This is a delay of up to 495 milliseconds (in multiples of 5) placed between the transmission of each segment of the message string. You can program up to 99 steps (of 5 ms each). Scan the Interfunction Delay bar code below, then scan the number of steps, and the SAVE bar code from the inside back cover.
5 Data Formatting Data Format Editor Introduction The Data Format Editor selections are used to edit scanned data. For example, you can use the Data Format Editor to insert characters at certain points in bar code data as it is scanned. It is not necessary to use the Data Format Editor. A set of defaults for the data format is already programmed in the scanner. The selections in the following pages are used only if you wish to alter the default settings. Default Data Format setting = None.
Note: The wildcard for all terminal types is 099. Step 4. Code I.D. On page 4-5, find the symbology to which you want to apply the data format. Locate the Hex value for that symbology and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart. Step 5. Length Specify what length (up to 9999 characters) of data will be acceptable for this symbology. Scan the four digit data length from the Programming Chart. (Note: 50 characters is entered as 0050. 9999 is a universal number, indicating all lengths.) Step 6.
F4 Send “xx” character “nn” times (Insert) leaving cursor in current cursor position. Syntax = F4xxnn (xx stands for the hex value for an ASCII code, see Decimal to Hex to ASCII Conversion chart, page 4-6, and nn is the numeric value (00-99) for the number of times it should be sent.) E9 Send all but the last “nn” characters, starting from the current cursor position. Syntax = E9nn (nn is the numeric value (00-99) for the number of characters that will not be sent at the end of the message.
E5 FE EC ED ters to be replaced and xx2 defines replacement characters, continuing through zz1 and zz2. Terminates character replacement. Syntax = E5. Compare character in current cursor position to the character “xx.” If characters are equal, increment cursor. If characters are not equal, no format match. Syntax = FExx (xx stands for the hex value for an ASCII code, see Decimal to Hex to ASCII Conversion chart, page 4-6.) Check to make sure there is an ASCII number at the current cursor position.
Data Formatter When Data Formatter is turned off, the bar code data is output to the host as read (including prefixes and suffixes). Choose one of the following options. Default = Data Formatter On. * Data Formatter On, but Not Required Data Formatter Off When Data Formatter is required, all input data must conform to an edited format or the scanner does not transmit the input data to the host device.

6 Secondary Interface By switching interface cables, the IT3800/3900 scanner can communicate with a portable data terminal (secondary interface), in addition to the host terminal (primary interface). Note: Secondary interfaces do not apply to the IT3800LX-15. The secondary interface can be programmed at any time. Secondary Code 39 Wand Emulation In Wand Emulation mode, the scanner decodes the bar code then sends data in the same format as a wand scanner.
Secondary Non Decoded Output Laser Emulation Use this selection when connecting to a secondary terminal with integral decoding. This also sets the transmission rate to 36 scans per second and the polarity to white high. Non Decoded Output Non Decoded Output Laser Emulation Transmission Rate The Transmission Rate is limited by the terminal’s ability to receive data without dropping characters. Default = 36 scans/second.
Non Decoded Laser Emulation Idle The idle describes the state of the scanner when no data is being transmitted. When in Non Decoded mode, you must set the scanner’s idle state to match the idle state for the device to which the scanner is connected. Default = High. Low * High Disabling the Secondary Interface You can temporarily disable the secondary interface, but still retain the secondary interface settings in the scanner’s memory by scanning the Disable bar code below.
Automatic Trigger: The scanner scans continuously at full power. Automatic Trigger Manual Trigger, Low Power: The scanner “sleeps,” using only 30 milliamps, until the trigger is pulled. When the trigger is pulled, the scanner wakes up and operates at normal power until there is no triggering for the time set with the Low Power Time Out bar code. Then, the scanner goes to “sleep” again. Low Power Time Out: Scan the Low Power Time Out bar code to change the time out duration.
7 Symbologies Introduction Use this section to program the scanner for Industrial, Retail, and PDF417 Symbology selections.
Message Length Description You are able to set the valid reading length of some of the bar code symbologies. If the data length of the scanned bar code doesn’t match the valid reading length, the imager will issue an error beep. You may wish to set the same value for minimum and maximum length to force the imager to read fixed length bar code data. This helps reduce the chances of a misread. EXAMPLE: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 9-20 characters. Min. length = 09 Max.
Codabar Codabar * On Off Start/Stop Characters Start/Stop characters identify the leading and trailing ends of the bar code. You may either transmit, or not transmit Start/Stop characters. Default = Don’t Transmit.
Codabar (continued) Check Character Codabar check characters are created using different “modulos.” You can program the scanner to read only Codabar bar codes with Modulo 16 check characters. Default = No Check Character. No Check Character indicates that the scanner reads and transmits bar code data with or without a check character.
Concatenation Codabar supports symbol concatenation. When you Enable concatenation, the scanner looks for a Codabar symbol having a “D” start character, adjacent to a symbol having a “D” stop character. In this case the two messages are concatenated into one with the “D” characters omitted. Default = On. Character Start Stop Start Stop Codabar A12D D34A Select Require to prevent the scanner from decoding a lone Codabar symbol.
Code 39 < Default All Code 39 Settings > Code 39 * On Off Start/Stop Characters Start/Stop characters identify the leading and trailing ends of the bar code. You may either transmit, or not transmit Start/Stop characters. Default = Don’t Transmit.
Code 39, continued Check Character No Check Character indicates that the scanner reads and transmits bar code data with or without a check character. When Check Character is set to Validate, but Don’t Transmit, the unit will only read Code 39 bar codes printed with a check character, but will not transmit the check character with the scanned data.
Code 39 Append This function allows the scanner to append the data from several Code 39 bar codes together before transmitting them to the host computer. When this function is enabled, the scanner stores those Code 39 bar codes that start with a space (excluding the start and stop symbols), and does not immediately transmit the data. The scanner stores the data in the order in which the bar codes are read, deleting the first space from each.
Code 39, continued Full ASCII If Full ASCII Code 39 decoding is enabled, certain character pairs within the bar code symbol will be interpreted as a single character. For example: $V will be decoded as the ASCII character SYN, and /C will be decoded as the ASCII character #. Default = On.
Interleaved 2 of 5 < Default All Interleaved 2 of 5 Settings > Interleaved 2 of 5 * On Off Check Digit No Check Digit indicates that the scanner reads and transmits bar code data with or without a check digit. When Check Digit is set to Validate, but Don’t Transmit, the unit will only read Interleaved 2 of 5 bar codes printed with a check digit, but will not transmit the check digit with the scanned data.
Interleaved 2 of 5, continued Interleaved 2 of 5 Message Length Note: Scan the bar codes below to change the message length. Refer to Message Length Description (page 7-2) for additional information. Minimum and Maximum lengths = 2-80. Minimum Default = 4, Maximum Default = 80.

11 Utilities To Add a Test Code I.D. Prefix to All Symbologies This selection allows you to turn on transmission of a Code I.D. before the decoded symbology. (See the Symbology Chart on page 4-5 for the single character code that identifies each symbology.) This action first clears all current prefixes, then programs a Code I.D. prefix for all symbologies. This is a temporary setting that will be removed when the unit is power cycled. Add Code I.D.
Specular Effect Reduction When the On code is scanned, the first pass read rate and voting threshold are increased. Default = Off. On * Off Note: If you want to further limit specular effects, reduce the scan speed using "Scan Rate" on page 3-1.
12 Serial Programming Commands The serial programming commands can be used in place of the programming bar codes. Both the serial commands and the programming bar codes will program the IT3800/3900. For complete descriptions and examples of each serial programming command, refer to the corresponding programming bar code in this manual. The device must be set to an RS-232 interface (see page 1-8). The following commands can be sent via a PC com port using terminal emulation software.
Query Commands Several special characters can be used to query the device about its settings. ^ ? * What is the default value for the setting(s). What is the device’s current value for the setting(s). What is the range of possible values for the setting(s). (The device’s response uses a dash (-) to indicate a continuous range of values. A pipe (|) separates items in a list of non-continuous values.
When responding, the device echoes back the command sequence with the status character inserted directly before each of the punctuation marks (the period, exclamation point, comma, or semicolon) in the command. Examples of Query Commands In the following examples, a bracketed notation [ ] depicts a non-displayable response. Example #1:What is the range of possible values for Codabar Coding Enable? Enter: cbrena*.
Trigger Commands You can activate and deactivate the scanner with serial trigger commands. First, the scanner must be put in Manual/Serial Trigger Mode either by scanning the Manual/Serial Trigger Mode bar code (page 3-4), or by sending the Manual/ Serial Menu Command (page 12-8).
