1 Getting Started The IMAGETEAM™ 4620 cordless scanning system consists of one IT2020-5B base and one IT4620 Cordless Area Imager. Up to seven imagers may be linked to one base. The IT4620 marks a new performance level for hand held area imagers. The IT4620 hand held area imager is powered by Hand Held Products AdaptusTM Imaging Technology. The performance of Adaptus technology delivers aggressive read rates and depths of field on 1D, stacked linear, and matrix codes.
Unpacking the System After you open the shipping carton containing the product, take the following steps: • Check to make sure everything you ordered is present. • Save the shipping container for later storage or shipping. • Check for damage during shipment. Report damage immediately to the carrier who delivered the carton.
About the Battery ! Use only the Li-ion battery packs provided by Hand Held Products. The use of any battery pack not sold by Hand Held Products will void your warranty and may result in damage to your unit. Power is supplied to the cordless imager by a rechargeable battery that is integrated in the imager handle. Each imager is shipped with a battery. (See Product Specifications beginning on page 13-1.
Proper Disposal of the Battery When the battery has reached the end of its useful life, the battery should be disposed of by a qualified recycler or hazardous materials handler. Do not incinerate the battery or dispose of the battery with general waste materials. You may send batteries to Hand Held Products (postage paid). The shipper is responsible for complying with all federal, state, and local laws and regulations related to the packing, labeling, manifesting, and shipping of spent batteries.
5. Program the base for the keyboard wedge interface. See "Keyboard Wedge Connection" on page 2-1.) 6. Verify the base operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample Symbols in the back of this manual. Connecting the Base with USB A base can be connected to the USB port of a computer. 1. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the base and to the computer. 2. Program the base for the USB interface by scanning the appropriate programming bar code. 3.
Connecting the Base with RS-232 Serial Port 1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer. 2. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the base. Note: For the base to work properly, you must have the correct cable for your type of terminal/computer. 2 4 5 2 3 3 4 5 3. Unplug the mouse or keyboard from the computer. Plug the mouse or keyboard into the power tap on the imager cable. 4. Plug the power tap into the mouse or keyboard port. 5.
Connecting the Base with Serial Wedge The IT2020-5B uses TTL signal levels to wedge into an RS-232 serial network. Use only IT2020-5B serial wedge cables to prevent damage to the base. Refer to RS-232 Baud Rate on page 2-16 to set the baud rate and communications protocol. 1. Turn off power to the computer. 2. Disconnect the existing serial cable from the computer. 3. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the base.
Linking Imager to Base When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, the base and imager are not linked. Once the imager is placed into the base, the software automatically links the imager and the base. If the imager and base have previously been linked, you do not receive any feedback. If this is the first time that the imager and base are linked, both devices emit a short chirp when their radios link. At this point, you are set to one imager to one base.
Communication Between the Cordless System and the Host The cordless imager provides immediate feedback in the form of a “good read” indication (a green LED on the imager and an audible beep) after a bar code is scanned correctly and the base has acknowledged receiving the data. This is possible since the cordless system provides two-way communication between the imager and the base. When data is scanned, the data is sent to the host system via the base unit.
Reading Techniques The imager has a view finder that projects a bright red or green aiming beam that corresponds to the imager’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam should be centered over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for a good read. Linear bar code 2D Matrix symbol The aiming beam is smaller when the imager is closer to the code and larger when it is farther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to the unit.
2 Programming the Interface Introduction Chapter 1 describes connecting the base to the computer with the appropriate interface cable. This chapter describes how to program your system for the desired interface. Plug and Play Plug and Play bar codes provide instant imager set up for commonly used interfaces. Note: After you scan one of the codes, power cycle the host terminal to have the interface in effect.
RS-232 The RS-232 Interface bar code is used when connecting to the serial port of a PC or terminal. The following RS-232 Interface bar code also programs a carriage return (CR) and a line feed (LF) suffix, baud rate, and data format as indicated below. It also changes the trigger mode to manual.
IBM 4683 Ports 5B, 9B, and 17 Interface Scan one of the following “Plug and Play” codes to program the IT4620 for IBM 4683 Port 5B, 9B, or 17. Note: After scanning one of these codes, you must power cycle the cash register.
IBM SurePos Scan one of the following “Plug and Play” codes to program the IT4620 for IBM SurePos (USB Hand Held imager) or IBM SurePos (USB Tabletop imager). Note: After scanning one of these codes, you must power cycle the cash register.
USB HID Scan the following code to program the IT4620 for USB HID bar code imagers. Scanning this code changes the terminal ID to 131. USB HID Bar Code Imager USB Com Port Emulation Scan the following code to program the IT4620 to emulate a regular RS-232based Com Port. If you are using a Microsoft® Windows® PC, you will need to download a driver from the Hand Held Products website (www.handheld.com). The driver will use the next available Com Port number.
Serial Wedge To set up the serial wedge terminal ID, use the serial terminal ID 050 and follow the instructions on page 2-1. Make sure that all of the communication parameters match on all of the connected devices. Choosing Both sends scanned data to P1 and P2. Default = P1.
Resetting the Standard Product Default Settings: Current Application Work Group If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your imager, or you’ve changed some options and want the standard product default settings restored, scan the Standard Product Default Settings: Current Application Group bar code below. The Menu Commands starting on page 12-6 list the factory default settings for each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the programming pages).
Programming the Interface - Terminal ID Method If your interface is not a standard PC AT, refer to Supported Terminals on page 2-9 through page 2-10, and locate the Terminal ID number for your PC. Scan the Terminal ID bar code below, then scan the numeric bar code(s) from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual to program the imager for your terminal ID. Scan Save to save your selection. For example, an IBM AT terminal has a Terminal ID of 003.

Keyboard Country (continued) Turkey F Turkey Q U.K. Keyboard Style This programs keyboard styles, such as Caps Lock and Shift Lock. Default = Regular. Regular is used when you normally have the Caps Lock key off. * Regular Caps Lock is used when you normally have the Caps Lock key on. Caps Lock 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.
Autocaps via NumLock bar code should be scanned in countries (e.g., Germany, France) where the Caps Lock key cannot be used to toggle Caps Lock. The NumLock option works similarly to the regular Auotcaps, but uses the NumLock key to retrieve the current state of the Caps Lock. Autocaps via NumLock Emulate External Keyboard should be scanned if you do not have an external keyboard (IBM AT or equivalent).
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 Mode: This selection can be used if you have an IBM AT style terminal and the system is dropping characters.
RS-232 Baud Rate Baud Rate sends the data from the imager to the terminal at the specified rate. The host terminal must be set for the same baud rate as the imager. Default = 115,200.
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 = 8. Stop Bits sets the stop bits at 1 or 2. Default = 1. Parity provides a means of checking character bit patterns for validity. Default = None.
RS-232 Receiver Time-Out The unit stays awake to receive data until the RS-232 Receiver Time-Out expires. A manual or serial trigger resets the time-out. When an RS-232 receiver is sleeping, a character may be sent to wake up the receiver and reset the time-out. A transaction on the CTS line will also wake up the receiver. The receiver takes 300 milliseconds to completely come up.
Host ACK Selection Some applications require that the host terminal (or server) approve or reject incoming bar code data and notify the operator of these actions. These applications require that the host maintain control over the response indicators emitted from the source imager. Turning the Host ACK selection on, configures the cordless system imagers to respond to commands from the host system.

3 Basic System Operation Cordless Base The cordless base provides the link between the cordless imager and the host system. The base contains an interface assembly and an RF communication module. The RF communication module performs the data exchange between the cordless imager and the interface assembly.
System Conditions The components of the cordless system interact in specific ways as you associate an imager to a base, as you move an imager out of range, bring an imager back in range, or swap imagers between two cordless systems. The following information explains the cordless system operating conditions.
Base Charge Mode In order for the battery to be charged, there must be enough voltage for the circuitry to work. There are three conditions during which power can be supplied to the base: Condition 1: Condition 2: Condition 3: 9VDC power supply connected to the barrel connector 12VDC host power source only 5VDC host power source only The chart below describes each selection by condition.
Beeper and LED Sequences and Meaning The IT4620 contains LEDs on the top of the unit to indicate its power up, communication, and battery status. Simply stated, red LED = error; green LED = success of any type. The unit’s audible indicators have meaning as well: 3 beeps = error; 2 beeps = menu change; 1 beep = all other successes. The table below lists the indication and cause of the LED illumination and beeps for the IT4620.
Imager Modes The IT4620 is capable of working in single imager mode, multiple imager mode, or with Blutetooth devices, other than the IT2020-5B base. Unlinking the Imager If the base has an imager linked to it, that imager must be unlinked before a new imager can be linked. Once the previous imager is unlinked, it will no longer communicate with the base. To unlink an imager from the base, scan the Unlink Imager bar code below.
Open Link Mode - Single Imager When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, the base and imager are not linked. By placing an imager into the base, they establish a link. Placing a different imager into the base establishes a new link and the old imager is unlinked. Each time an imager is placed into the base, it becomes the linked imager; the old imager is unlinked.
Imager Name You are able to assign a name to each imager you are using. It will be helpful to name the imagers if you have multiple imagers linked to one base so that you will be able to control the imager receiving imaging commands sent from the base. The default name for an IT4620 is “IT4620”. If you have more than one IT4620 linked to a base, the first imager that is linked to the base receives commands addressed using this name.
Alternatively, you may change the name with a bar code command if you cannot send serial commands to the base. One way to do this is to scan the bar code below and scan a number for the imager name. For example, if you had 7 imagers to one base, scan the bar code below with the first imager, scan the 1 bar code on the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual and scan Save. Then scan the Reset bar code and wait for the scanner to re-link to the base before scanning the next bar code.
Application Work Group Selection This programming selection allows you to assign an imager to a work group by scanning the bar code below. You may then program the settings (e.g., beeper volume, prefix/suffix, data formatter) that your application requires.
Resetting the Standard Product Default Settings: All Application Work Groups The following bar code defaults all of the work groups to the factory settings. Standard Product Default Settings: All Application Groups The Menu Commands starting on page 12-6 list the standard product default settings for each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the programming pages).
Using the Imager with Bluetooth Devices The IT4620 imager may be used either with the IT2020-5B base or with other Bluetooth devices. Scanning the Non-Base Bluetooth Connection bar code below allows the imager to be used with other Bluetooth devices (e.g., PDA, PC - Bluetooth USB Adapter). After you scan the bar code below, follow the instructions supplied with your Bluetooth device to locate the imager and connect to it.
Out-of-Range Alarm Duration If your imager is out range of the base, an alarm sounds from both your base and imager. To activate the alarm options for the imager or the base and to set the alarm duration, scan the appropriate bar code below and then set the time-out duration (from 0-3000 seconds) by scanning digits on the Programming Chart inside the back cover, then scanning Save. Default = 0 sec (no alarm).
Data Accumulation Mode Scan the bar codes below to turn data accumulation (batch) mode on and off. If data accumulation mode is on, bar code data is stored when the imager is out of range of the base and transmitted once the imager is back in range.

4 Output Good Read Indicators Beeper – Good Read The beeper may be programmed On or Off in response to a good read. Turning this option off, only turns off the beeper response to a good read indication. All error and menu beeps are still audible. Default = On. * Beeper - Good Read On Beeper - Good Read Off Beeper Volume – Good Read The beeper volume codes modify the volume of the beep the imager emits on a good read. Default = Medium.
Beeper Pitch – Good Read The beeper pitch codes modify the pitch (frequency) of the beep the imager emits on a good read. Default = Medium. Low (1600 Hz) * Medium (3250 Hz) High (4200 Hz) Beeper Duration – Good Read The beeper duration codes modify the length of the beep the imager emits on a good read. Default = Normal. * Normal Beep Short Beep LED – Good Read The LED indicator can be programmed On or Off in response to a good read. Default = On.
Number of Beeps – Good Read The number of beeps of a good read can be programmed from 1 - 9. The same number of beeps will be applied to the beeper and LED in response to a good read. For example, if you program this option to have five beeps, there will be five beeps and five LED flashes in response to a good read. The beeps and LED flashes are in sync with one another.
Serial Trigger Modes Manual/Serial Trigger, Low Power You can activate the imager either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trigger command (see Trigger Commands on page 12-4). When in manual trigger mode, the imager scans until a bar code is read, or until the trigger is released. When in serial mode, the imager scans until a bar code has been read or until the deactivate command is sent.
Imager Power Time-Out Timer Note: The Imager Power Time-out Timer option only applies to Manual/Serial Trigger. When there is no activity within a specified time period, the imager enters low power mode. Scan the appropriate Imager Power Time-Out bar code to change the time-out duration (in seconds). Note: Scanning zero (0) is the equivalent of setting no time-out. If there are no trigger pulls during the “imager power time-out timer” interval, the imager goes into power down mode.
Scan Stand Mode When a unit is in Scan Stand mode, it remains idle as long as it sees the Scan Stand symbol. (See Scan Stand Symbol that follows.) When a different code is presented, the imager is triggered to read the new code. Note:The imager automatically adjusts the illumination LEDs to the lowest light level possible to maintain a good lock on the Scan Stand symbol. When a symbol is presented, the imager’s light levels adjust to the saved setting (see LED Power Level on page 4-9).
Presentation LED Behavior after Decode When an imager is in presentation mode, the LEDs remain on and continue scanning for a short time after a bar code is decoded. If you wish to turn the LEDs off immediately after a bar code is decoded, scan the LEDs Off bar code, below. Default = LEDs On. * LEDs On LEDs Off Presentation Sensitivity Presentation Sensitivity is a numeric range that increases or decreases the imager's reaction time to bar code presentation.
Reread Delay This sets the time period before the imager 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 = Medium. Reread Delay only works when in Presentation Mode (see page 4-6).
LED Power Level This selection allows you to adjust LED and aimer brightness. Off is used when no illumination is needed. Low is used if low illumination is sufficient. High (the default) is the brightest setting. If you have an aimer delay programmed (see Aimer Delay on page 4-10), the aimer will be at 100% power during the delay, regardless of the LED Power Level. Note: If you scan the Off bar code, both the aimer and illumination lights turn off, making it impossible to scan bar codes in low light.
Aimer Delay The aimer delay allows a delay time for the operator to aim the imager before the picture is taken. Use these codes to set the time between when the trigger is pulled and when the picture is taken. During the delay time, the aiming light will appear, but the LEDs won’t turn on until the delay time is over.
Aimer Mode This feature allows you to lower peak current during scanning by alternating the aimer and illumination LEDs. When the Interlaced bar code is scanned, the aimer and illumination LEDs are not allowed to be on at the same time. While this does limit peak current during scanning, the imager performance may be slower. When the Concurrent bar code is scanned, the aimer and illumination LEDs are allowed to light at the same time. Select Off if you don’t want to use either aimer mode.
The default centering window is a 128x96 pixel area in the center of the imager’s field of view. The following diagram illustrates the default top, bottom, left, and right pixel positions, measured from the top and the left side of the imager’s field of view, which is 640 by 480 pixels. 40% 60% 100% 0 Top 40% Bottom Default Center 60% Left Right 100% If a bar code is not within the predefined window, it will not be decoded or output by the imager.
Decode Search Mode There are three selectable decode (scanning) modes: Full Omnidirectional - Searches for bar code features beginning at the center of an image, and searches to the image’s limits. This mode reads all symbologies (including OCR), in any orientation. The Full Omnidirectional search is very thorough which may slow performance time. Note: This search mode is the default setting for the IT4620 imager.
Output Sequence Overview Require Output Sequence When turned off, the bar code data will be output to the host as the imager decodes it. When turned on, all output data must conform to an edited sequence or the imager will not transmit the output data to the host device. Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection is turned on.
Output Sequence Example In this example, you are scanning Code 93, Code 128, and Code 39 bar codes, but you want the imager to output Code 39 1st, Code 128 2nd, and Code 93 3rd, as shown below. Note: Code 93 must be enabled to use this example.
To program the previous example using specific lengths, you would have to count any programmed prefixes, suffixes, or formatted characters as part of the length.
When the output sequence is Off, the bar code data is output to the host as the imager decodes it. Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection is turned on. Required On/Not Required *Off Multiple Symbols When this programming selection is turned On, it allows you to read multiple symbols with a single pull of the imager’s trigger. If you press and hold the trigger, aiming the imager at a series of symbols, it reads unique symbols once, beeping (if turned on) for each read.
If you want a different notation than “NR,” for example, “Error,” or “Bad Code,” you can edit the output message using the Data Formatter (page 6-5). The hex code for the No Read symbol is 9C. Print Weight Print Weight is used to adjust the way the imager reads Matrix symbols. If an imager will be seeing consistently heavily printed matrix symbols, then a print weight of 6 may improve the reading performance. For consistently light printing, a print weight of 2 may help.
Working Orientation Some bar codes are direction-sensitive. For example, KIX codes and OCR can misread when scanned sideways or upside down. Use the working orientation settings if your direction-sensitive codes will not usually be presented upright to the imager. Default = Upright.

5 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.
To Add a Prefix or Suffix: Step 1. Scan the Add Prefix or Add Suffix symbol (page 5-4). Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in Appendix A) for the symbology to which you want to apply the prefix or suffix. For example, for Code 128, Code ID is “j” and Hex ID is “6A”. Step 3. Scan the 2 hex digits from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies. Step 4.
To Clear One or All Prefixes or Suffixes: You can clear a single prefix or suffix, or clear all prefixes/suffixes for a symbology. When you Clear One Prefix (Suffix), the specific character you select is deleted from the symbology you want. When you Clear All Prefixes (Suffixes), all the prefixes or suffixes for a symbology are deleted. Step 1. Scan the Clear One Prefix or Clear One Suffix symbol. Step 2.
Prefix Selections Add Prefix Clear One Prefix Clear All Prefixes Suffix Selections Add Suffix Clear One Suffix Clear All Suffixes Function Code Transmit When this selection is enabled and function codes are contained within the scanned data, the imager transmits the function code to the terminal. Charts of these function codes are provided in Supported Interface Keys starting on page 10-3. When the imager is in keyboard wedge mode, the scan code is converted to a key code before it is transmitted.
Intercharacter, Interfunction, and Intermessage Delays Some terminals drop information (characters) if data comes through too quickly. Intercharacter, interfunction, and intermessage delays slow the transmission of data, increasing data integrity. Each delay is composed of a 5 millisecond step. You can program up to 99 steps (of 5 ms each) for a range of 0-495 ms. Intercharacter Delay An intercharacter delay of up to 495 milliseconds may be placed between the transmission of each character of scanned data.
User Specified Intercharacter Delay An intercharacter delay of up to 495 milliseconds may be placed after the transmission of a particular character of scanned data. Scan the Delay Length bar code below, then scan the number of milliseconds and the SAVE bar code using the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. Next, scan the Character to Trigger Delay bar code, then the 2-digit hex value for the ASCII character that will trigger the delay Code Page Mapping of Printed Bar Codes on page A-6.
Intermessage Delay An intermessage delay of up to 495 milliseconds may be placed between each scan transmission. Scan the Intermessage Delay bar code below, then scan the number of milliseconds and the SAVE bar code using the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. 1st Scan Transmission 2nd Scan Transmission Intermessage Delay Intermessage Delay To remove this delay, scan the Intermessage Delay bar code, then set the number of steps to 0.

6 Data Formatting Data Format Editor Introduction You may use the Data Format Editor to change the imager’s output. For example, you can use the Data Format Editor to insert characters at certain points in bar code data as it is scanned. The selections in the following pages are used only if you wish to alter the output. Default Data Format setting = None.
Note: The wildcard for all terminal types is 099. Step 4. Code I.D. In Appendix A, 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 inside the back cover of this manual. 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 inside the back cover of this manual.
hex values for ASCII codes, see Code Page Mapping of Printed Bar Codes on page A-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 Code Page Mapping of Printed Bar Codes on page A-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.
E4 Replaces up to 15 characters in the data string with user specified characters. Replacement continues until the E5 command is encountered. Syntax = E4nnxx1xx2yy1yy2...zz1zz2 where nn is the total count of both characters to be replaced plus replacement characters; xx1 defines characters to be replaced and xx2 defines replacement characters, continuing through zz1 and zz2. E5 Terminates character replacement. Syntax = E5. FE Compare character in current cursor position to the character “xx.
Data Format Editor Enter Data Format * Default Data Format Clear One Data Format Clear All Data Formats Save Discard 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, but Not Required.
Alternate Data Formats Alternate formats allow you “single shot” capability to scan one bar code using a different data format than your primary format. When data formats are programmed (see page 6-1), you must input whether you are programming the primary format, or an alternate format numbered 1, 2, or 3. An alternate format is initiated by scanning one of the 3 alternate format bar codes below.
7 Symbologies This programming section contains the following menu selections. Refer to Chapter 12 for settings and defaults.
All Symbologies If you want to decode all the symbologies allowable for your imager, scan the All Symbologies On code. If on the other hand, you want to decode only a particular symbology, scan All Symbologies Off followed by the On symbol for that particular symbology. All Symbologies On All Symbologies Off Message Length Description You are able to set the valid reading length of some of the bar code symbologies.
Codabar Codabar * On Off Codabar 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 Check Character Codabar check characters are created using different “modulos.” You can program the imager to read only Codabar bar codes with Modulo 16 check characters. Default = No Check Character. No Check Character indicates that the imager reads and transmits bar code data with or without a check character.
Codabar Concatenation Codabar supports symbol concatenation. When you enable concatenation, the imager 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 imager from decoding a single “D” Codabar symbol without its companion.
Code 39 < Default All Code 39 Settings > Code 39 * On Off Code 39 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 Check Character No Check Character indicates that the imager 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 only reads 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 imager to append the data from several Code 39 bar codes together before transmitting them to the host computer. When this function is enabled, the imager 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 imager stores the data in the order in which the bar codes are read, deleting the first space from each.
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 = Off.
Code 39 Code Page Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If the data received does not display with the proper characters, it may be because the bar code being scanned was created using a code page that is different from the one the host program is expecting.
Check Digit No Check Digit indicates that the imager 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 only reads Interleaved 2 of 5 bar codes printed with a check digit, but will not transmit the check digit with the scanned data. When Check Digit is set to Validate and Transmit, the imager only reads Interleaved 2 of 5 bar codes printed with a check digit, and will transmit this digit at the end of the scanned data.
Code 93 < Default All Code 93 Settings > Code 93 * On Off Code 93 Message Length 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 = 0-80. Minimum Default = 0, Maximum Default = 80.

7 - 50 IMAGETEAM™ 2020/4620 System Manual
8 Imaging Commands The imager can be used as a digital camera for capturing, manipulating, and transferring images. Imaging Commands with their modifiers send imaging commands to the imager on a single-use basis, and take effect for the next subsequent image capture. Once that capture is complete, the imager reverts to its imaging default settings. If you wish to change a default setting, you must use the serial default command (see Imaging Default Commands on page 12-22).
G - Gain: This modifier boosts the signal and multiplies the pixel value. 1G No gain (default) 2G Medium gain 4G Heavy gain 8G Maximum gain D - Delta for Acceptance: This sets the allowable range for the white value setting (see W - Target White Value). Delta is only available when using Photo Style. (Default = 25) nD Range: 0 - 255 L - LED State: Determines if the LEDs should be on or off, and when.
The image ship command has many different modifiers that can be used to change the look of the image output by the imager. Modifiers affect the image that is transmitted, but do not affect the image in memory. Modifiers always begin with numbers and end with a letter (case insensitive). Any number of modifiers may be appended to the IMGSHP command.
H - Histogram Stretch: Increases the contrast of the transmitted image. Not available with some image formats. 0H No stretch (default) 1H Histogram stretch I - Invert Image: Used to rotate the image around the X or Y axis in fixed mount applications where the imager is mounted upside down.
L, R, T, B, M - Image Cropping: Ships a window of the image by specifying the left, right, top, and bottom pixel coordinates. Device columns are numbered 0 through 639, and device rows are numbered 0 through 479. The resulting cropped image must have two or more rows and two or more columns of pixels or the IMGSHP command will fail (1x1 is not acceptable). For example, sending IMGSHP10L15R5T8B will cause a 6 column by 4 row image to be transmitted.
U - Document Image Filter: Sharpens the edges and smooths the area between the edges of the transmitted text image. The Document Image Filter enhances images of documents such as ID cards and prescriptions. This filter should be used with gamma correction (see page 8-4), with the imager in a stand, and the image captured using the command: IMGSNP1P0L168W90%32D This filter typically provides better JPEG compression than the standard E Edge Sharpen command (see page 8-6).
Intelligent Signature Capture - IMGBOX Note: IMGBOX commands can only be used with PDF417, Code 39, Code 128, Aztec, Codabar, and Interleaved 2 of 5 symbologies. Intelligent signature capture ships only part of an image to the host application. This method reduces transfer time and file size, while simplifying signature capture. Below is an example of an intelligent signature capture application. In this example, the operator reads the bar code, which is then transmitted to the host application.
F - File Format: Indicates the type of file format in which to save the image. 0F KIM format (default) 1F TIFF binary 2F TIFF binary group 4, compressed 3F TIFF grayscale 4F Uncompressed Binary 5F Uncompressed grayscale 6F JPEG image 7F Outlined image 8F BMP format H - Height of Signature Capture Area: In the example, the height of the area to be captured is 1 inch, resulting in a value of H = 1/0.01 = 100.
R - Resolution of Signature Capture Area: The number of pixels that the imager outputs per each minimum bar width. The higher the value for R, the higher the quality of the image, but also the larger the file size. S - Bar Code Aspect Ratio: The ratio of the bar code height to the narrow element width. In the example, the narrow element width is .010 inches and the bar code height is 0.400 inches, resulting in a value of S = 0.4/0.01 = 40.
8 - 10 IMAGETEAM™ 2020/4620 System Manual
9 OCR Programming Use this section to program the imager for optical character recognition (OCR). The IT4620 reads 6 to 60 point OCR typeface. Note: OCR is not as secure as bar codes. To enhance security in OCR applications, create an OCR template to match the data, and print an OCR check character. The IT4620 will read the following fonts: • OCR-A 0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ ()<>/\+-*$ • OCR-B • U.S.
OCR Fonts Default All OCR Settings turns off all OCR capability in the imager, so the imager will be able to scan linear, stacked, matrix, and composite bar codes, but not OCR fonts. In addition, any OCR templates you have created are erased. The eight digit default templates are reinstated for any future use of the OCR On codes listed below. < Default All OCR Settings > OCR Note: OCR symbols can misread when scanned sideways or upside down.
U.S. Currency Font U.S. Currency On allows you to scan characters in the font used on U.S. currency. The default setting allows you to scan any eight digit combination. If you have created an OCR template, character combinations that fit the template can be scanned (see Creating an OCR Template, page 9-5). U.S. Currency On MICR E13 B Font MICR E13 B On allows you to scan MICR characters on a bank check. The default setting allows you to scan any eight digit combination.
SEMI Font SEMI Font On allows you to scan the SEMI font used in the semiconductor industry. SEMI Font On All OCR Off turns off all OCR capability in the imager, so the imager will be able to scan linear, stacked, matrix, and composite bar codes, but not OCR fonts. However, any OCR templates you have created will be retained in memory. * All OCR Off OCR Templates You can create a custom “template,” or character string that defines the length and content of OCR strings that will be read with your imager.
Creating an OCR Template A single template allows you to program the imager to read any combination of characters in the order you specify. Refer to examples that follow the Template Characters table below.
To create this template, you would enable the OCR-A font. Scan the Enter OCR Template symbol (page 9-14), then scan the d from the OCR Programming Chart in the back of this manual eight times. Scan Save OCR Template (page 9-15). This would let you read any string of eight digits, for example: 37680981 Character Match Sequences On the Code Page Mapping of Printed Bar Codes, page A-6, find the Hex value that represents the character(s) you want to match.
Note: If using Quick*View to program, use the space bar to designate a space and not the hex value of 20. 4. Exit OCR Template Editor Scan Save OCR Template to save your entries. Discard OCR Template exits without saving any OCR Template changes. Stringing Together Multiple Formats (Creating “Or” Statements) You may want to program the imager to accept many OCR formats. To do this, you would string together each format with a “t.
To create this template, you would enable the OCR-A font. Scan the Enter User-Defined Variable g symbol (page 9-14). Scan 414243 from the Programming Chart (the hex characters for “A,” “B,” and “C”). Scan Save OCR Template (page 9-15). This will let you read either A or B or C in any position where you place the g. For example, you could create the following template: ddddddggg This template would then let you read data that began with six digits, and had an A, B, or C trailing.
To read the three rows below, you would use the template command "OCRTMP"ddddddddrllllllllrlllldddd". 12345678 ABCDEFGH ABCD1234. OCR Check Character You may want to print and verify a check character in order to enhance the security of your OCR application. The IT4620 can be programmed for almost any type of check character. A number of presets are provided for common check character uses (e.g., modulo 10 and modulo 36).
OCR Modulo 36 Check Character Scan this symbol to program the OCR template for a simple modulo 36 checksum of the digits 0 through 9 and the letters A through Z. OCR Modulo 36 Check Character OCR User-Defined Check Character You can customize the check character calculation to suit your application. Each character of the check character alphabet can be programmed in its proper order. The number of characters you enter determines the modulo value for the calculation.
Use the Programming Chart on the inside the back cover of this manual to scan the two symbols for each hex value. 3. Scan the Save bar code on the inside back cover. Example: To program the modulo 11 check character from example #8 on page 9-10, enable the OCR-A font. Scan the Enter OCR Check Character bar code on page 9-10, then scan the following hex values in order: 3031323334353637383958 After you enter all the desired hex values, scan the Save bar code on the inside back cover of this manual.
2-1-2-1 Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character Starting with the check character and working backward through the message, the imager applies a multiplier of 1, then 2, then 1, then 2, and so on. When the result of the multiplication is greater than 9, add both digits to the running sum. This is often referred to as the LUHN formula. One common application of the LUHN formula is validate credit card numbers. This is the modulo 10 checking scheme used in MSI Code and in Code 32 Pharmaceutical (PARAF).
OCR ISBN Application Example One application of OCR is to read the ISBN characters typically encoded using the OCR-A or OCR-B font. This is especially useful when the ISBN number is not encoded in an EAN-13 bar code. The following example shows how to configure the imager to read the ISBN strings on books in Japan. After you have followed the steps below, you will be able to scan the following ISBN number or the additional data below it, depending on the line of text at which the imager is aimed. 1.
5. Finally, set up the ISBN check digit, which is a special position-weighted modulo 11 checksum.

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, included in the Appendix A, page A-1) 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.
Imager Report Scan the bar code below to generate a report for the connected imagers. The report indicates the port, work group, imager name, and address. To assign a name to your imager, refer to "Menu Command Syntax" on page 12-1. Imager Report Imager Address Scan the bar code below to determine the address of the imager you are using. Imager Address Base Address Scan the bar code below to determine the address of the base you are using.
Resetting the Standard Product Default Settings: All Application Work Groups The following bar code defaults all of the work groups to the factory settings. Standard Product Default Settings: All Application Groups The Menu Commands starting on page 12-6 list the standard product default settings for each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the programming pages).
To communicate with an IT2020-5B, Visual Menu 2003 requires that the PC have at least one available serial communication port and an RS-232 cable to connect the port to the device. A power supply, which plugs into the IT2020-5B, is also required. Note: The IT2020-5B/IT4620 system works only with Visual Menu 2003 version 4.2 or later. Visual Menu 2003 Operations The Visual Menu 2003 program performs the following operations: • Displays all configuration data, and saves the information to a file on your PC.
2. Click on Services & Support, click on Developer Resource Area, and select the IT4620. 3. Click on the entry for Visual Menu 2003 . 4. When prompted, select Save File, and save the files to the c:\windows\temp directory. 5. Once you have finished downloading the file, exit the web site. 6. Using Explorer, go to the c:\windows\temp file. 7. Double click on the Visual Menu 2003.exe file. Follow the screen prompts to install the Visual Menu 2003 program. 8.
Temporary Quick*View Configuration For a quick download communication configuration, scan the Quick*View bar code and the imager will be temporarily configured for Quick*View settings. Note: If you have a unit capable of keyboard wedge mode, scan the bar code below and the unit will communicate in RS-232 mode, allowing it to work with Quick*View. To convert the imager back to keyboard wedge communication, cycle the power.
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 IT4620. 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 2-2). The following commands can be sent via a PC COM port using terminal emulation software.
Storage A single character that specifies the storage table to which the command is applied. An exclamation point (!) performs the command’s operation on the device’s volatile menu configuration table. A period (.) performs the command’s operation on the device’s non-volatile menu configuration table. Use the non-volatile table only for semi-permanent changes you want saved through a power cycle. Query Commands Several special characters can be used to query the device about its settings.
Responses The device responds to serial commands with one of three responses: ACK Indicates a good command which has been processed. ENQ Indicates an invalid Tag or SubTag command. NAK Indicates the command was good, but the Data field entry was out of the allowable range for this Tag and SubTag combination, e.g., an entry for a minimum message length of 100 when the field will only accept 2 characters.
Example #4: What are the device’s settings for all Codabar selections? Enter: cbr?. Response: CBRENA1[ACK], SSX0[ACK], CK20[ACK], CCT1[ACK], MIN2[ACK], MAX60[ACK], DFT[ACK].
Resetting the Standard Product Default Settings: Current Application Work Group If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your imager, or you’ve changed some options and want the standard product default settings restored, scan the Standard Product Default Settings: Current Application Group bar code below. The Menu Commands starting on page 12-6 list the factory default settings for each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the programming pages).

Code Page Mapping of Printed Bar Codes Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If the data received does not display with the proper characters, it may be because the bar code being scanned was created using a code page that is different from the one the host program is expecting. If this is the case, select the code page with which the bar codes were created. The data characters should then appear properly. Note: The Code Page option is available for Code 39, Code 93, and Code 128.
