2 Product Features HP Retail Integrated Barcode Scanner With rich feature sets, the HP Retail Integrated Barcode Scanner represents the premium level of data collection equipment for general purpose point of sale applications. The HP scanner has enhanced optics with improved motion tolerance, allowing codes placed on fast-moving objects to be easily and quickly captured, creating the ideal scanner for tasks requiring high throughput like those found in retail environments.
3 Safety and Maintenance Ergonomic Recommendations WARNING! In order to avoid or minimize the potential risk of ergonomic injury follow the recommendations below. Consult with your local Health & Safety Manager to ensure that you are adhering to your company’s safety programs to prevent employee injury.
4 Setting Up and Using the Scanner Follow the steps below to connect and get the scanner up and communicating with its host. 1. Attach the HP Retail Integrated Barcode Scanner to the host device. 2. Configure the Interface, if necessary (refer to Configuring the Interface on page 9). 3. Configure the scanner as described in Programming the Scanner on page 11 (optional, depends on settings needed). Using the Scanner The scanner functions by capturing the barcode (object) image and decoding the codes.
Configuring the Interface The scanner supports USB as the host interface. Upon completing the physical connection between the scanner and its host, select the desired Interface option (USB HID KBD is default) by scanning the appropriate bar code to select your system’s interface type. If you want to customize additional settings and features associated with the USB interface, proceed to the corresponding chapter in the HP Retail Integrated Barcode Scanner PRG.
Country Mode This feature specifies the country/language supported by the keyboard. The following languages are supported: U.S.
5 Programming the Scanner The scanner is factory-configured with a set of standard default features. After scanning the interface bar code from the Interfaces section (if necessary), select other options and customize the scanner through use of the programming bar codes available in the HP Retail Integrated Barcode Scanner Programming Reference Guide (PRG). Check the corresponding features section for your interface, and also the Data Editing and Symbologies chapters of the PRG.
Reading Parameters The scanner default is Automatic Object Sense Reading mode. Simply present the bar code label in front of the scanner and center the aiming pattern and illumination system to capture and decode the image. See Using the Scanner on page 8 for more information. The aiming system will briefly switch off after the acquisition time, and if no code is decoded will switch on again before the next acquisition.
Operating Modes The reader can operate in two scanning (read) modes, plus the illumination can be programmed for several different operations states (off = default, dim, or on) while the read phase is not active. See the HP Retail Integrated Barcode Scanner Programming Reference Guide for more information and options. Automatic: Scanning is continually on. Automatic (Object Sense): Scanning is turned on automatically when an item is placed in the reader’s field of view (default).
A Troubleshooting Solving Common Problems The following table lists possible problems and recommended solutions. Problem Solution Scanner does not power up. Ensure that the POS computer is powered on. Ensure that the scan module is properly connected to the USB port of the terminal monitor. If the scan module is attached to a standalone monitor, ensure the monitor USB cable is properly connected to the host. Reposition the scan module to a different USB port.

LED and Beeper Indications The scanner’s beeper sounds and its LED illuminates to indicate various functions or errors on the scanner. An optional “Green Spot” also performs useful functions. The following tables list these indications. One exception to the behaviors listed in the tables is that the scanner’s functions are programmable, and so may or may not be turned on. For example, certain indications such as the power-up beep can be disabled using programming bar code labels.
INDICATION DESCRIPTION LED BEEPER acknowledges each portion as it is successfully scanned. Label Programming Mode Acceptance of Programming Configuration option(s) have been successfully programmed via labels and the scanner has exited Programming Mode. N/A Scanner sounds one high frequency beep and 4 low frequency beeps followed by reset beeps. Label Programming Mode Cancel Item Entry Cancel label has been scanned. N/A Scanner sounds two times at low frequency and current volume.
