2 Product Features HP Imaging Barcode Scanner With rich feature sets and extensive model options, the HP Imaging Barcode Scanner represents the premium level of data collection equipment for general purpose 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 and light industrial 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. Connect the Cable to the scanner and the Host. 2. Configure the Interface (refer to Configuring the Interface on page 9). 3. Configure the scanner as described in Programming the Scanner on page 15 (optional, depends on settings needed).
Using the Scanner The scanner normally functions by capturing and decoding codes. It is equipped with an internal motion-sensing function that activates the aiming system on device motion. The intelligent aiming system indicates the field of view that should be positioned over the bar code: Figure 4-3 Aiming System Figure 4-4 Relative Size and Location of Aiming System Pattern A red beam illuminates the label.
USB-COM USB Com to simulate RS-232 standard interface Figure 4-5 Select USB-COM-STD NOTE: Install the correct USB Com driver from the CD included with your product. Keyboard Interface Select options for USB Keyboard Interfaces.
Country Mode This feature specifies the country/language supported by the keyboard. The following languages are supported: U.S. English Norwegian Korean UK English Spanish Russian Belgian Swedish Hebrew Danish Traditional Chinese Arabic French Thai Greek French Canadian Portuguese (EU) Hungarian German Brazilian Portuguese Slovakian Italian Japanese See the HP Imaging Barcode Scanner Product Reference Guide (PRG) for information and programming bar codes for this feature.
Use Insert the scanner into the stand as shown below in Figure 4-8 (Figure 1). Adjust the scanner to the desired position for reading bar codes by bending the flexible tubing.
Assembling the Stand To assemble the components of the stand, refer to the Figure 4-9 (Figure 2) below. Figure 4-9 Stand Assembly 1. Place the metal Base Plate (2) and the Base Cover (3) together with the countersink in the Base Plate facing out. 2. Place one of the flat-head machine screws (1) through the Base Plate (2) and Cover (3). 3.
Freestanding: 1. Peel the three rubber pads (9) off the backing sheet and affix them to the recesses in the bottom side of the Base Cover. 2. Place the stand on any flat surface and adjust as needed. Scanning Modes Enable Stand Mode Enable Stand Mode programs the imager to operate in stand mode, where the scanner automatically senses and reads labels with no trigger pull required.
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, select other options and customize the scanner through use of the programming bar codes available in the HP Imaging Barcode Scanner Product Reference Guide (PRG). Check the corresponding features section for your interface, and also the Data Editing and Symbologies chapters of the PRG.
Reading Parameters Move the scanner toward the target and center the aiming pattern and illumination system to capture and decode the image. See Using the Scanner on page 9 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. The illuminator will remain on until the symbol is decoded. As you read code symbols, adjust the distance at which you are holding the scanner.
6 Operating Modes Scan Mode The imager can be set to operate in one of several scanning modes. See the HP Imaging Barcode Scanner Product Reference Guide (PRG) for more information and settings for any of the options: Trigger Single (Default): This mode is associated with typical handheld scanner operation. Motion Sense is active and if the scanner detects motion the aiming pattern is turned on. When the trigger is pulled, illumination is turned on and the scanner attempts to read a label.
Figure 6-2 Scan Mode = Trigger Single Figure 6-3 Scan Mode = Trigger Pulse Multiple Figure 6-4 Scan Mode = Trigger Hold Multiple Figure 6-5 Scan Mode = Flashing Figure 6-6 Scan Mode = Always On Figure 6-7 Scan Mode = Stand Mode Figure 6-8 Pick Mode = Enabled Multiple Label Reading The scanner offers a number of options for multiple label reading. See the PRG or software configuration tool for descriptions of these features and programming labels.
● Switch to Flashing - Automatically switches the scanner to Flash Mode when placed in the stand. ● Switch to Always On - Automatically switches the scanner to Always On mode when placed in the stand.
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 cable is properly connected to a USB port on the computer. Ensure that the cable is properly connected to the scanner. Move the cable to a different USB port on the computer. If still not working, replace the interface cable. Top light on scanner is flashing.

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 Label Programming Mode Acceptance of Partial Label In cases where multiple labels must be scanned to program one feature, this indication acknowledges each portion as it is successfully scanned. N/A Scanner sounds one short beep at highest frequency and current volume. Label Programming Mode Acceptance of Programming Configuration option(s) have been successfully programmed via labels and the scanner has exited Programming Mode.
