To change any option, scan the appropriate bar code(s) provided in the RS-232 Host Parameters section beginning on page 7-4. NOTE See Appendix A, Standard Default Parameters for all user preferences, hosts, symbologies, and miscellaneous default parameters.
7-4 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide RS-232 Host Parameters Various RS-232 hosts are set up with their own parameter default settings (Table 7-2). Selecting standard, ICL, Fujitsu, Wincor-Nixdorf Mode A, Wincor-Nixdorf Mode B, OPOS/JPOS, Olivetti, or Omron sets the defaults listed below.
RS-232 Interface 7-5 RS-232 Host Parameters (continued) Selecting ICL, Fujitsu, Wincor-Nixdorf Mode A, Wincor-Nixdorf Mode B, OPOS/JPOS, Olivetti, or Omron enables the transmission of code ID characters listed in Table 7-3. These code ID characters are not programmable and are separate from the Transmit Code ID feature. Do not enable the Transmit Code ID feature for these terminals.
7-6 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide RS-232 Host Types To select an RS-232 host interface, scan one of the following bar codes. Standard RS-2321 ICL RS-232 Wincor-Nixdorf RS-232 Mode A Wincor-Nixdorf RS-232 Mode B Olivetti ORS4500 Omron 1Scanning Enable RS-232 (No Variant) activates the RS-232 driver, but does not change port settings (e.g., parity, data bits, handshaking). Selecting another RS-232 host type bar code changes these settings.
RS-232 Interface 7-7 RS-232 Host Types (continued) OPOS/JPOS Fujitsu RS-232 Baud Rate Baud rate is the number of bits of data transmitted per second. Set the digital scanner's baud rate to match the baud rate setting of the host device. Otherwise, data may not reach the host device or may reach it in distorted form.
7-8 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Baud Rate (continued) *Baud Rate 9600 Baud Rate 19,200 Baud Rate 38,400 Baud Rate 57,600 Baud Rate 115,200
RS-232 Interface 7-9 Parity A parity check bit is the most significant bit of each ASCII coded character. Select the parity type according to host device requirements. • Select Odd parity and the parity bit value is set to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an odd number of 1 bits are contained in the coded character. • Select Even parity and the parity bit value is set to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an even number of 1 bits are contained in the coded character.
7 - 10 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Stop Bit Select The stop bit(s) at the end of each transmitted character marks the end of transmission of one character and prepares the receiving device for the next character in the serial data stream. The number of stop bits selected (one or two) depends on the number the receiving terminal is programmed to accommodate. Set the number of stop bits to match host device requirements.
RS-232 Interface 7 - 11 Check Receive Errors Select whether or not the parity, framing, and overrun of received characters are checked. The parity value of received characters is verified against the parity parameter selected above. *Check For Received Errors Do Not Check For Received Errors Hardware Handshaking The data interface consists of an RS-232 port designed to operate either with or without the hardware handshaking lines, Request to Send (RTS), and Clear to Send (CTS).
7 - 12 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Hardware Handshaking (continued) • None: Scan the bar code below if no Hardware Handshaking is desired. • Standard RTS/CTS: Scan the bar code below to select Standard RTS/CTS Hardware Handshaking. • RTS/CTS Option 1: When RTS/CTS Option 1 is selected, the digital scanner asserts RTS before transmitting and ignores the state of CTS. The digital scanner de-asserts RTS when the transmission is complete.
RS-232 Interface 7 - 13 Hardware Handshaking (continued) RTS/CTS Option 2 RTS/CTS Option 3 Software Handshaking This parameter offers control of the data transmission process in addition to, or instead of, that offered by hardware handshaking. There are five options. If Software Handshaking and Hardware Handshaking are both enabled, Hardware Handshaking takes precedence. • None: When this option is selected, data is transmitted immediately. No response is expected from host.
7 - 14 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Software Handshaking (continued) - XOFF is received during a transmission. Data transmission then stops after sending the current byte. When the digital scanner receives an XON character, it sends the rest of the data message. The digital scanner waits indefinitely for the XON.
RS-232 Interface 7 - 15 Host Serial Response Time-out This parameter specifies how long the digital scanner waits for an ACK, NAK, or CTS before determining that a transmission error has occurred. This only applies when in one of the ACK/NAK Software Handshaking modes, or RTS/CTS Hardware Handshaking option. *Minimum: 2 Sec Low: 2.5 Sec Medium: 5 Sec High: 7.5 Sec Maximum: 9.
7 - 16 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide RTS Line State This parameter sets the idle state of the Serial Host RTS line. Scan a bar code below to select Low RTS or High RTS line state. *Host: Low RTS Host: High RTS Beep on When this parameter is enabled, the digital scanner issues a beep when a character is detected on the RS-232 serial line. is issued to gain a user's attention to an illegal entry or other important event.
RS-232 Interface 7 - 17 Intercharacter Delay This parameter specifies the intercharacter delay inserted between character transmissions.
7 - 18 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Nixdorf Beep/LED Options When Nixdorf Mode B is selected, this indicates when the digital scanner should beep and turn on its LED after a decode. *Normal Operation (Beep/LED immediately after decode) Beep/LED After Transmission Beep/LED After CTS Pulse Ignore Unknown Characters Unknown characters are characters the host does not recognize.

Wand Emulation Interface Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Wand Emulation Interface Introduction This chapter describes how to set up the digital scanner with a wand emulation host when Wand Emulation communication is needed. The digital scanner connects to an external wand decoder or to a decoder integrated in a mobile computer or Point-of-Sale (POS) terminal. In this mode the digital scanner emulates the signal of a digital wand to make it "readable" by a wand decoder.
9-2 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Connecting Using Wand Emulation To perform Wand Emulation, connect the digital scanner to a mobile computer, or a controller which collects the wand data and interprets it for the host. Mobile Computer Wand Port Interface Cable Figure 9-3 Wand Emulation Connection NOTE Interface cables vary depending on configuration. The connectors illustrated in Figure 9-3 are examples only.
Wand Emulation Interface 9-3 Wand Emulation Parameter Defaults Table 9-6 lists the defaults for Wand Emulation host types. To change any option, scan the appropriate bar code(s) provided in Wand Emulation Host Parameters on page 9-4. NOTE See Appendix A, Standard Default Parameters for all user preferences, hosts, symbologies, and miscellaneous default parameters.
9-4 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Wand Emulation Host Parameters Wand Emulation Host Types Select a Wand Emulation host by scanning one of the bar codes below.
Wand Emulation Interface 9-5 Leading Margin (Quiet Zone) Scan a bar code below to select a leading margin duration. A leading margin is the time that precedes the first bar of the scan, (in milliseconds). The minimum allowed value is 80 msec and the maximum is 250 msec. This parameter accommodates older wand decoders which cannot handle short leading margins. NOTE 250 msec is the maximum value that this parameter can attain, however, 200 msec is sufficient.
9-6 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Polarity Polarity determines how the digital scanner's Wand Emulation interface creates the Digitized Barcode Pattern (DBP). DBP is a digital signal that represents the scanned bar code. Different decoders expect the DBP to be in a certain format. The DBP either has the "highs" represent bars and the "lows" represent spaces (margins), or the "highs" represent spaces (margins) and the "lows" represent bars.
Wand Emulation Interface 9-7 Convert All Bar Codes to Code 39 By default, the Wand Emulation interface sends data to the attached host in the same symbology that was decoded. This can be a problem for customers with older systems that do not recognize newer symbologies (for example, RSS). Enabling this parameter ignores the original symbology decoded, and outputs the data as if it were a Code 39 bar code. Any lowercase characters in the original data stream are transmitted as uppercase characters.
9-8 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Convert Code 39 to Full ASCII By default, any characters that do not have a corresponding character in the Code 39 symbology set are replaced by a space. If this parameter is enabled, the data sent to the wand Interface is encoded in Code 39 Full ASCII. This setting requires that the Host be able to interpret Code 39 Full ASCII data. This setting applies only if Convert to Code 39 is also enabled.
Keyboard Wedge Interface Chapter 10 Chapter 10 Keyboard Wedge Interface Introduction This chapter describes how to set up a Keyboard Wedge interface with the digital scanner. With this interface, the digital scanner is connected between the keyboard and host computer, and translates bar code data into keystrokes. The host computer accepts the keystrokes as if they originated from the keyboard. This mode adds bar code reading functionality to a system designed for manual keyboard input.

Scanner Emulation Interface 11 - 3 Scanner Emulation Parameter Defaults Table 11-1 lists the defaults for the Scanner Emulation host. To change any option, scan the appropriate bar code(s) provided in the Scanner Emulation Host Parameters section beginning on page 11-4. NOTE See Appendix A, Standard Default Parameters for all user preferences, hosts, symbologies, and miscellaneous default parameters.
11 - 4 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Scanner Emulation Host Scan the bar code below to enable the Scanner Emulation host. Scanner Emulation Host Scanner Emulation Host Parameters Beep Style The Scanner Emulation host supports three beep styles. • Beep On Successful Transmit: The digital scanner beeps when the attached decoder issues the decode signal to the digital scanner, so the digital scanner and the attached decoder beep at the same time.
Scanner Emulation Interface 11 - 5 Parameter Pass-Through The Scanner Emulation host can process parameter bar code messages and send them to the attached decoder. In this way, customers using Symbol compliant decoders can control the behavior of the entire system by scanning the necessary parameters only once. For example, to enable D 2 of 5, scan the D 2 of 5 Enable parameter bar code. The digital scanner and the attached decoder both process the parameter.
11 - 6 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Convert Newer Code Types (continued) When decoding these code types with this parameter disabled, the digital scanner issues Convert Error beeps and transmits no data. The amount of data in the scanned newer bar code type should not exceed that of the conversion code type. *Convert Newer Code Types Reject Newer Code Types Module Width The standard module width is 20 µs. For an extremely slow decoder system, select 50 µs Module Width.
Scanner Emulation Interface 11 - 7 Convert All Bar Codes to Code 39 Scan a bar code below to enable or disable the conversion of all bar code data to Code 39. *Do Not Convert Bar Codes To Code 39 Convert All To Code 39 Code 39 Full ASCII Conversion By default, any characters that do not have a corresponding character in the Code 39 symbology set are replaced by a space. If this parameter is enabled, the data sent to the Scanner Emulation host is encoded in Code 39 Full ASCII.
11 - 8 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Transmission Timeout The Scanner Emulation host transmits bar code data to the attached decoder and waits for the decoder to assert the Decode signal, indicating successful transmission. If, after a specified amount of time, the Decode signal is not asserted (indicating that the attached decoder has not successfully received the bar code data), the digital scanner issues transmit error beeps.
Scanner Emulation Interface 11 - 9 Ignore Unknown Characters Unknown characters are characters the decoder does not recognize. When Ignore Unknown Characters is selected, all bar code data is sent except for unknown characters, and no error beeps sound. When Convert Error on Unknown Characters is selected, bar codes containing at least one unknown character are not sent to the decoder, and a convert error beep sounds.
11 - 10 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Leading Margin (continued) 5 ms Leading Margin 10 ms Leading Margin Check For Decode LED The attached decoder normally asserts the Decode line to signal to the Scanner Emulation host that it successfully decoded the transmitted bar code. Some decoders, however, do not assert the Decode signal. In this case, the digital scanner emits transmit error beeps to indicate that the bar code was not successfully transmitted.
Chapter 12 123Scan Chapter 12 123Scan Introduction 123Scan is a Windows®-based utility that programs the digital scanner with all parameters including Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) Rules. An ADF rule modifies bar code data before it is sent to the host to ensure compatibility between bar coded data and the host application. Digital scanners can be programmed via PC download or by scanning a sheet of bar codes generated by the utility.
12 - 2 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide 123Scan Parameter To communicate with the 123Scan program, load 123Scan, included in the documentation CD-ROM, onto the host computer, and scan the bar code below.

Chapter 14 Advanced Data Formatting Chapter 14 Advanced Data Formatting Introduction Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) is a means of customizing data before transmission to the host device. Scan data can be edited to suit particular requirements. ADF can be implemented through scanning a related series of bar codes, which begin on page 14-5, or by installing the 123Scan utility (see Chapter 12, 123Scan) which allows the digital scanner to be setup and programmed with Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) Rules.
14 - 2 DS6708 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide Using ADF Bar Codes When programming a rule, make sure the rule is logically correct. Plan ahead before scanning. To program each data formatting rule: • Start the Rule. Scan the Begin New Rule bar code on page 14-5. • Criteria. Scan the bar codes for all pertinent criteria. Criteria can include code type (e.g., Code 128), code length, or data that contains a specific character string (e.g., the digits “129”).

Usually used to refer to services provided by one software component to another, usually via software interrupts or function calls Aperture. The opening in an optical system defined by a lens or baffle that establishes the field of view. Application Programming Interface. See API. ANSI Terminal. A display terminal that follows commands in the ANSI standard terminal language.
Glossary - 2 Bit. Binary digit. One bit is the basic unit of binary information. Generally, eight consecutive bits compose one byte of data. The pattern of 0 and 1 values within the byte determines its meaning. Bits per Second (bps). Bits transmitted or received. Bit. Binary digit. One bit is the basic unit of binary information. Generally, eight consecutive bits compose one byte of data. The pattern of 0 and 1 values within the byte determines its meaning. bps. See Bits Per Second. Byte.
Glossary - 3 Code 3 of 9 (Code 39). A versatile and widely used alphanumeric bar code symbology with a set of 43 character types, including all uppercase letters, numerals from 0 to 9 and 7 special characters (- . / + % $ and space). The code name is derived from the fact that 3 of 9 elements representing a character are wide, while the remaining 6 are narrow. Code 93. An industrial symbology compatible with Code 39 but offering a full character ASCII set and a higher coding density than Code 39.
Glossary - 4 Discrete 2 of 5. A binary bar code symbology representing each character by a group of five bars, two of which are wide. The location of wide bars in the group determines which character is encoded; spaces are insignificant. Only numeric characters (0 to 9) and START/STOP characters may be encoded. DRAM. Dynamic random access memory. DTE. See Data Terminal Equipment. E EAN. European Article Number.
Glossary - 5 Host Computer. A computer that serves other terminals in a network, providing such services as computation, database access, supervisory programs and network control. I IDE. Intelligent drive electronics. Refers to the solid-state hard drive type. IEC. International Electrotechnical Commission. This international agency regulates laser safety by specifying various laser operation classes based on power output during operation. IEC (825) Class 1.
Glossary - 6 IP Address. (Internet Protocol address) The address of a computer attached to an IP network. Every client and server station must have a unique IP address. A 32-bit address used by a computer on a IP network. Client workstations have either a permanent address or one that is dynamically assigned to them each session. IP addresses are written as four sets of numbers separated by periods; for example, 204.171.64.2. IPX/SPX. Internet Package Exchange/Sequential Packet Exchange.
Glossary - 7 MDN. Mobile Directory Number. The directory listing telephone number that is dialed (generally using POTS) to reach a mobile unit. The MDN is usually associated with a MIN in a cellular telephone -- in the US and Canada, the MDN and MIN are the same value for voice cellular users. International roaming considerations often result in the MDN being different from the MIN. MIL. 1 mil = 1 thousandth of an inch. MIN. Mobile Identification Number.
Glossary - 8 Parameter. A variable that can have different values assigned to it. PC Card. A plug-in expansion card for laptop computers and other devices, also called a PCMCIA card. PC Cards are 85.6mm long x 54 mm wide, and have a 68 pin connector. There are several different kinds: Type I; 3.3 mm high; use - RAM or Flash RAM Type II; 5 mm high; use - modems, LAN adaptors Type III; 10.5 high; use - Hard Disks PCMCIA. Personal Computer Memory Card Interface Association. See PC Card. Percent Decode.
Glossary - 9 Router. A device that connects networks and supports the required protocols for packet filtering. Routers are typically used to extend the range of cabling and to organize the topology of a network into subnets. See Subnet. RS-232. An Electronic Industries Association (EIA) standard that defines the connector, connector pins, and signals used to transfer data serially from one device to another. S Scan Area. Area intended to contain a symbol. Scanner.
Glossary - 10 Subnet Mask. A 32-bit number used to separate the network and host sections of an IP address. A custom subnet mask subdivides an IP network into smaller subsections. The mask is a binary pattern that is matched up with the IP address to turn part of the host ID address field into a field for subnets. Default is often 255.255.255.0. Substrate. A foundation material on which a substance or image is placed. SVTP. Symbol Virtual Terminal Program. Symbol.
