Chapter 4 Operating Settings - Settings that affect the way your product operates (trigger settings, flashing mode, data decoding security settings, beep characteristics, etc.). Pre-defined trigger modes - These are pre-defined trigger settings used to quickly set up your scanner. - If you are using a pre-defined mode, do not set the other Scanning/triggering settings. Toggle - One pull turns on the aimer only. When the trigger is released, illumination and decoding turn on.
Aim Scanning / Triggering Triggering modes Continuous - At power up the lighting and decoding are on all the time. The trigger is not used. Continuous Level (*) - Lighting and decoding are on when the trigger line is activated (trigger pressed) and off when the trigger line is deactivated (trigger released). Level (*) Pulse - Lighting and decoding are on when the trigger line is activated (trigger pressed) and stay on until a period of inactivity lasting the time specified by the trigger timeout.
- When a bar code is detected, the lighting and decoding automatically turn on and stay on until another period of inactivity (timeout), after the timeout the scanner starts flashing again. Flashing Autostand - Autostand triggering mode switches from Level to Flashing (1D models) or Presentation (2D models). - At power up the scanner is in Flashing or Presentation trigger mode (no need to activate the trigger line). You can put a bar code in front of the scanner and it will be scanned.
- The trigger can be used in Presentation mode - when you pull the trigger the scanner functions as if it were in Level mode. - Only available with 2D models. Presentation Presentation threshold - Only available on 2D models. - Use this setting when in Presentation Triggering mode to regulate how sensitive the imager is to movement which automatically wakes up the scanner. - The higher the value = the stronger the movement is needed to wake up the scanner.
Trigger activation - Used to enable or disable hardware or emulated triggers. IMPORTANT: You cannot activate the trigger line if the hardware trigger is disabled. If you are using level or pulse trigger modes, the only way to re-activate the hardware trigger is by using online set up (ISCP terminal) or sending an ISCP command. Disabled - Hardware and emulated triggers are disabled. The only way to turn the imager on is by sending a decode on/decode off control command (20, 40).
Enabled - Start read character default = STX - Stop read character default = ETX - This option is NOT compatible with ISCP. Enable start character [STX] (*) Compose start character - Use different characters for "start read" and "stop read." - This option is NOT compatible with ISCP. Compose start character stop character [ETX] (*) Compose stop character - Use different characters for "start read" and "stop read." - This option is NOT compatible with ISCP.
Turn off after good read - When active, the scan engine stops the reading session after a successful decoding. - Turn off after good read is only used in the following trigger modes: - Level - Pulse - Autostand - Standard Aim NOTE: this parameter is NOT used with conti Enable (*) Disable Retrigger delay - Only valid if "Turn off after good read" is disabled. - This setting is a time delay in which the scanner turns off after a good read.
- Pulse - Autostand - Toggle* NOTE*: In Toggle trigger mode, "one pull aim, one pull read" does not work as stated. Instead one pull turns on the aimer only. When the trigger is released decoding begins. If no decode, second pull turns aimer and decoding off. Typical aimer (*) One pull aim and read - Pull and hold trigger - aiming beam (programmable duration) then reading beam. One pull aim and read One pull aim, second pull read - First pull aiming beam, second pull reading beam.
- If you wait longer than the duration before the second pull, the cycle starts over with the aiming beam.
Ignore stand detect - Enable ignore stand detect when you want to use Autostand triggering mode with and you are not using a detectable stand (charge base or Bluetooth base station). Disable (*) Enable Double scan prevention - When enabled pulling the trigger a second time does not start a new reading session unless the timeout has expired. This prevents the user from accidentally scanning the same bar code twice.
Data decoding security - Ensures correct transmission of data for difficult reading conditions and varying levels of barcode quality (poorly printed labels, variable lengths and no check digit, "fragile" symbologies). - Increasing the security level reduces the reading speed !!! Predefined security levels - Predefined security level settings can be modified individually - Use medium and high security levels for poor-quality bar codes or critical applications.
Timeout between identical consecutive codes (ms) - Prevents reading the same bar code more than once. - Value is milliseconds. Compose (ms): Timeout between different consecutive codes (ms) - Prevents unwanted reading of other bar codes on the same label. 0 (*) Compose (ms): Center decoding - When enabled the scanner reads only the bar code that the laser aimer is aimed at. - This is helpful when reading bar codes that are positioned close together.
Tolerance - The tolerance level for center decoding allows you to aim the laser close to the bar code to be read rather than be positioned on the bar code. - 0 = No tolerance (laser aimer must be positioned on the bar code to be read), 100 = most permissive (laser aimer can be positioned beside the bar code to be read). No tolerance (*) Compose (%): Bar code sequence - Bar code sequence allows you to read up to 10 bar codes with one trigger pull.
Beeps / LEDs Note (tone frequency) High (*) Medium Low Power-up beeps 2 beeps = successful power-up 3 long beeps = EEPROM integrity error (contact your Intermec representative !). Disable (*) Enable Good read beeps Number - "Normal" bar codes: 1 beep (default) = good read - Configuration codes: 2 beeps = good read, 6 beeps = setup error, 3 long beeps = EEPROM integrity error (contact your Intermec representative !).
1 beep (*) 2 beeps None Duration 60 80 (*) 200 300 Timing - IBM and OCIA cash registers: do not send this parameter online to the scan engine through RS-232 cable 0-364032-10!!! Send it to the setup sheet and read the configuration code with your normal IBM / OCIA product cable connected.
During transmission (*) Before transmission After transmission Good read LED duration - "Read" LED green = "good read" - Setting a duration of 0 ms = "no good read LED" - Value is in milliseconds.
5000 Disable/enable all good read signals - This setting can be used to disable all good read signals: Beep, LED and vibrate.
Multicode beeps - By default the scanner does not beep when reading several bar codes when using the Multicode function (see Symbologies). Use this setting to activate beeps when reading bar codes that are part of a Multicode.
Chapter 5 Data Transmission Settings - Modify data transmission settings to optimize performance. ISCP - MS920 Scanner Control Protocol parameters. ISCP (*) None Data format Raw format - Barcode data is sent without a frame and no acknowledgement is necessary. Raw format Packet format - Data is sent to the host in an ISCP frame. Packet format Extended barcode data format BCD - "Packet" data format must be activated to enable BCD transmission.
- Precedes barcode data with "[BCD]" indicator. BCD BCDEX (*) - "Packet" data format must be activated to enable BCDEX transmission. - Precedes barcode data with "[BCDEX]" indicator and extended BCDEX (*) DPS Transmission frame size (TFS) - Length of the longest frame that can be received by the host. - Value from 32 up to the maximum transmission frame size (MTFS) of the scanner.
- Error (if any) - Type of ISCP bar code (setup, status, etc.) - GID - FID - Parameter - For information on the event frame received by the host see the ISCP online help available in the help menu in Easyset.
Unsuccessful decoding - This event is sent whenever a decode session is deactivated (trigger released) and no decode has taken place.
Enable Trigger pulled Disable(*) Enable Trigger released Disable(*) Enable Wake-up Disable(*) Enable Structured append Disable(*) - 100 -
Enable Symbology identifier [symbology id] [data] Not transmitted(*) AIM format [AIM symbology id] [data] - Activates for all symbologies the 3-character symbology identifier standardized by the AIM Committee. - Example: "] A 0" identifies standard Code 39 without check digit[[[ If the data in a bar code is modified (ISBN, . . .), the standard AIM identifier for the symbology will be replaced by "]X0"]]].
Code Mark [preamble] [code mark symbology id] [data] [postamble] - Activates code mark symbology identifier transmission for all symbologies. NOTE: To change the default values go to "Symbology/select symbology/ symbology identifier/code mark" and use the compose option.
Inter-Character / message delay - Avoids dropping characters if transmitting decoded data too fast for the host system. Inter-Character delay - Do not use for IBM 46xx cash registers or laser/wand emulation!!! - Value is in milliseconds.
Inter-message delay - Value is in milliseconds. 0 (*) 10 30 50 80 100 Data editing - IMPORTANT [[[[ The data editing function is only available with STCDecode version 1.1.5.0 or later ]]]] - Your product can edit the data it receives before it transmits it to the host system. - Define up to 7 input scenarios to intercept the data you want to edit.
- The order in which you define the scenarios is important (the product compares incoming data with each scenario in turn and edits the data for the first matching scenario it finds). 1.Activate the scenario(s) you want the product to detect. 2.Define the input data you want to intercept for editing (any combination of input type, input length, input mask). 3.
