1 Getting Started About This Manual This User’s Guide provides installation and programming instructions for the 4000 Series imagers. Product specifications, dimensions, warranty, and customer support information are also included. Hand Held Products bar code imagers are factory programmed for the most common terminal and communications settings. If you need to change these settings, programming is accomplished by scanning the bar codes in this guide.
Imager Models The chart below lists the interfaces that can be used with your imager.
Connecting the Imager with USB Note: See "Imager Models" on page 1-2 to determine which interfaces apply to your imager. An imager can be connected to the USB port of a computer. 1. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the imager first, then to the computer. 2. Program the imager for a USB interface using the Plug and Play bar codes beginning on page 1-4. 3. The imager beeps. 4. Verify the imager operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample Symbols in the back of this manual.
Programming the 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. Note: See "Imager Models" on page 1-2 to determine which interfaces apply to your imager. USB PC or Macintosh® Keyboard Scan one of the following codes to program the imager for USB PC Keyboard or USB Macintosh Keyboard.
USB COM Port Emulation Scan the following code to program the imager 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. Apple® Macintosh computers recognize the imager as a USB CDC class device and automatically use a class driver. Scanning the code below changes the terminal ID to 130.
The 4800p’s viewfinder projects a green aiming beam that should be centered over the bar code, but can be positioned in any direction for a good read. Linear bar code 2D Matrix symbol Hold the scanner with the aiming beam centered over the bar code. The 4800p beeps when it successfully reads a bar code. Do not move the 4800p over another bar code until it beeps. The optimum distance between the 4800p and the object being scanned is 2 to 5 inches (5.1 - 12.7 cm).
2 Terminal Interfaces Terminal ID If your interface is not covered by a Plug and Play bar code from Chapter 1, then refer to Supported Terminals on page 2-2, 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.
Supported Terminals Note: See "Imager Models" on page 1-2 to determine which interfaces apply to your imager.
Keyboard Country Scan the appropriate country code below to program the keyboard for your country.
Keyboard Country (continued) Italy Latin America Netherlands (Dutch) Norway Poland Portugal Romania Russia SCS Slovakia Spain Sweden Switzerland (German) 2-4 4800p 2D Imager User’s Guide
Keyboard Country (continued) Turkey F Turkey Q U.K. Please refer to the Hand Held Products website (www.handheld.com) for complete keyboard country support information and applicable interfaces. If you need to program a keyboard for a country other than one listed above, scan the Program Keyboard Country bar code below, then scan the numeric bar code(s) for the appropriate country from the inside back cover, then the Save bar code.
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 Autocaps via NumLock bar code should be scanned in countries (e.g.
Keyboard Modifiers This modifies special keyboard features, such as CTRL+ ASCII codes and Turbo Mode. Control + ASCII Mode On: The imager sends key combinations for ASCII control characters for values 00-1F. Refer to Keyboard Function Relationships, page 10-1 for CTRL+ ASCII Values. Default = Off Control + ASCII Mode On * Control + ASCII Mode Off Turbo Mode: The imager sends characters to a terminal faster. If the terminal drops characters, do not use Turbo Mode.

3 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. * On Off Beeper Volume – Good Read The beeper volume codes modify the volume of the beep the imager emits on a good read.
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 Number of Beeps – Good Read The number of beeps of a good read can be programmed from 1 - 9.
Good Read Delay This sets the minimum amount of time before the imager can read another bar code. Default = No Delay. * No Delay Short Delay (500 ms) Medium Delay (1,000 ms) Long Delay (1,500 ms) User-Specified Good Read Delay If you want to set your own length for the good read delay, scan the bar code below, then set the delay (from 0-30,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the inside back cover, then scanning Save.
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. Use shorter delays in applications where repetitive bar code scanning is required. Default = Medium.
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. 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. To turn the LED Power Level back on, move to a brightly lit area and scan either the Low or the High bar code below.
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.
Output Sequence Editor This programming selection allows you to program the imager to output data (when scanning more than one symbol) in whatever order your application requires, regardless of the order in which the bar codes are scanned. Reading the Default Sequence symbol programs the imager to the Universal values, shown below. These are the defaults. Be certain you want to delete or clear all formats before you read the Default Sequence symbol.
Note: Code 93 must be enabled to use this example.
41 FF 6A 0013 42 FF 69 0012 43 FF start character match for Code 39, 41h = “A” termination string for first code code identifier for Code 128 B - Code 128 sample length (12) plus CR suffix (1) = 13 start character match for Code 128, 42h = “B” termination string for second code code identifier for Code 93 C - Code 93 sample length (11) plus CR suffix (1) = 12 start character match for Code 93, 43h = “C” termination string for third code Output Sequence Editor Enter Sequence Default Sequence Require Out
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. After scanning the Set Print Weight bar code, set the print weight (from 1-7) by scanning digits from the inside back cover, then scanning Save. Default = 4.
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.
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.
To Add a Prefix or Suffix: Step 1. Scan the Add Prefix or Add Suffix symbol (page 4-4). 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 9-3. 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.
User Specified Intercharacter Delay An intercharacter delay of up to 495 milliseconds (in 5 ms steps) 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 5 millisecond steps (0-99), and the Save bar code using the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual.
Intermessage Delay An intermessage delay of up to 495 milliseconds (in 5 ms steps) may be placed between each scan transmission. Scan the Intermessage Delay bar code below, then scan the number of 5 millisecond steps (0-99), 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.

5 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.
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. (Note: 50 characters is entered as 0050.
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 ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-4, 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 ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-4.) Check to make sure there is an ASCII number at the current cursor position.
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 5-1), 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.
6 Symbologies This programming section contains the following menu selections. Refer to Chapter 11 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. Transmit * 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.
When Check Character is set to Validate, but Don’t Transmit, the unit will only read Codabar bar codes printed with a check character, but will not transmit the check character with the scanned data. * No Check Character Validate Modulo 16, but Don’t Transmit Validate Modulo 16 and Transmit 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.
Select Require to prevent the imager from decoding a single “D” Codabar symbol without its companion. This selection has no effect on Codabar symbols without Stop/Start D characters. On * Off Require Codabar Message Length Scan the bar codes below to change the message length. Refer to Message Length Description (page 6-2) for additional information. Minimum and Maximum lengths = 2-60. Minimum Default = 4, Maximum Default = 60.
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. Transmit * 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. When Check Character is set to Validate and Transmit, the imager only reads Code 39 bar codes printed with a check character, and will transmit this character at the end of the scanned data. Default = No Check Character.
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.
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. Default = No Check Digit. * No Check Digit Validate, but Don’t Transmit Validate and Transmit Interleaved 2 of 5 Message Length Scan the bar codes below to change the message length. Refer to Message Length Description (page 6-2) for additional information. Minimum and Maximum lengths = 2-80.

EAN•UCC Emulation The imager can automatically format the output from any EAN•UCC data carrier to emulate what would be encoded in an equivalent UCC/EAN-128 or RSS and Composite symbol. EAN•UCC data carriers include UPC-A and UPC-E, EAN13 and EAN-8, ITF-14, UCC/EAN-128, and EAN•UCC RSS and Composites. Data from 2D symbols such as Aztec Code, Data Matrix, or QR Code, which encode a leading FNC1, also invoke EAN•UCC emulation.
Postal Codes Note: For best performance when reading a postal symbology, all other postal symbologies should be turned off. The following postal codes can only be read by a 2D Imager. 4-CB (4-State Customer Bar Code) Note: You may enable the 4-CB (4-State Customer Bar Code) if you have firmware with a base number of 31205480.

7 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 11-17).
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. 1IX Invert around the X axis (flips picture upside down) 1IY Invert around the Y axis (flips picture left to right) IF- Noise Reduction: Used to reduce the salt and pepper noise.
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 640, and device rows are numbered 0 through 480. nL The left edge of the shipped image corresponds to column n of the image in memory. Range: 000 - 640. (Default = 0) nR The right edge of the shipped image corresponds to column n - 1 of the image in memory. Range: 000 - 640.
This filter typically provides better JPEG compression than the standard E Edge Sharpen command (see page 7-6). This filter also works well when shipping pure black and white images (1 bit per pixel). The optimal setting is 26U. 0U Document image filter off (default) 26U Apply document image filter for typical document image nU Apply document image filter using grayscale threshold n. Use lower numbers when the image contrast is lower. 1U will have a similar effect to 22e. Range: 0-255.
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.
8 OCR Programming Use this section to program the Imager for optical character recognition (OCR). The 2D imager 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 2D imager will read OCR-A, OCR-B, U.S. Currency Serial Number (Money), MICR E-13B, and SEMI Font.
OCR-B On allows you to scan characters in the OCR-B font. 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 8-3). OCR-B On 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.
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.
Template Characters a represents any alphanumeric character (digit or letter) c represents that a check character is verified but not transmitted d represents any digit e represents any available OCR character g represents character from user-defined variable “g” h represents character from user-defined variable “h” i represents character from user-defined variable “g” or “h” k represents that a check character is verified but transmitted l represents any uppercase letter t marks the star
Character Match Sequences On the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-4, find the Hex value that represents the character(s) you want to match. Use the Programming Chart (inside the back cover) to scan the numbers that represent these characters. Example: You need to read three digits, three specific characters (ABC), three digits. The template would be: } ddd414243ddd hex codes for letters A, B, and C To create this template, you would enable the OCR-A font.
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.” This tells the imager to read optical characters that match any one of the formats in the template. Example: You need to read any combination of eight digits, or a combination of four digits, two uppercase letters, and two digits.
This template would then let you read data that began with six digits, and had an A, B, or C trailing. So you would be able to read: 654321ABC or 654321BAC or 654321CCC Reading Multi-Row OCR The imager is capable of decoding multi-row OCR text. Note: Reading rows longer than sixteen characters is not recommended. Consider the following example. This example shows serial commands as they would be entered using Quick*View.
OCR Check Character You may want to print and verify a check character in order to enhance the security of your OCR application. The imager 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). Scan the OCR Modulo 10 or OCR Modulo 36 Check Character bar code to specify the type of check character used in the OCR strings you’re scanning.
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.
2. Enter the characters in order. For each character, look up the corresponding hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-4. 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 8-9, enable the OCR-A font.
Since the result is zero, the message is considered to be valid, so the reader outputs the message: 0123456 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.
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. The imager automatically invokes the ISBN checksum for template rows that are: 1.) at least fourteen characters long, 2.) whose first four characters are the letters “ISBN,” 3.) whose last character is a check character, and 4.) when the modulo 11 check character “0123456789X” is programmed.

11 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 your imager. 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 USB Com Port Emulation interface (see page 1-5). 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*.

When properly seated, the connector is held in the imager’s handle by a flexible retention tab. The interface cable is designed to be field replaceable. • Order replacement cables from Hand Held Products or from an authorized distributor. • When ordering a replacement cable, specify the cable part number of the original interface cable. To Replace the 4800p Interface Cable: 1.
If the imager isn’t reading symbols well, check that the symbols: • Aren’t smeared, rough, scratched, or exhibiting voids. • Aren’t coated with frost or water droplets on the surface. • Are enabled in the imager or in the decoder to which the imager connects. Is the bar code displayed but not entered? The bar code is displayed on the host device correctly, but you still have to press a key to enter it (the Enter/Return key or the Tab key, for example). You need to program a suffix.

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.
