BC40XX UV Counterfeit Detection

The BC40XX Radio Base is available with a UV Counterfeit Money Detector, typically used to verify the authenticity of bank notes. Other uses for counterfeit detection are passport, ticket, credit card, travelers’ check and similar applications where it is possible to detect fluorescent marks with UV light.

The detector contains eight special UV LEDs, as shown below:

The Counterfeit Detector is based on UV fluorescent emission. Real banknotes under ultraviolet ray inks. On the other hand, most counterfeit banknotes only reflect the UV lights, without showing fluorescent marks.

1. Quickly press the Base button to light the UV LEDs.

2. Hold the item to be verified under the LED lights to ensure that the special fluorescent marks ar

3. The LEDs are set to switch off automatically after about 2 minutes. To keep the UV LEDs in always-on mode, quickly press the Base button a second time within 10 seconds of the first press. To switch them off, simply press the button again.

An external power supply is necessary for full functionality of the Base station with UV Counterfeit Detector. Use only the recommended AC adapter 12Vdc.

As with other types of batteries, Lithium-Ion (LI) batteries will lose capacity over time. Capacity deterioration is noticeable after one year of service whether the battery is in use or not. It is difficult to precisely predict the finite life of a LI battery, but cell manufacturers rate them at 500 charge cycles. In other words, the batteries should be expected to take 500 full discharge / charge cycles before needing replacement. This number is higher if partial discharging / recharging is adhered to rather than full / deep discharging,

The typical manufacturer advertised useful life of

LI batteries is one to three years, depending on usage and number of charges, etc., after which they should be removed from service, especially in mission critical applications. Do not continue to use a battery that is showing excessive loss of capacity, it should be properly recycled / disposed of and replaced. For most applications, batteries should be replaced after one year of service to maintain customer satisfaction and minimize safety concerns.

Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from

the device in compliance with European Directive 2006/66/EC, 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and subsequent modifications, US and China regulatory and others laws and regulations about the environment.

Configuration Methods

Programming Bar Codes

The reader is factory-configured with a standard set of default features. After scanning the interface bar code, you can select other options and customize your reader through use of the instructions and programming bar code labels available in the corresponding features section for your interface. Customizable settings for many features are found in "Configuration Parameters"

starting on page 37.

Some programming labels, like "Restore Custom Defaults" on page 34, require only the scan of the single label to enact the change. Most, however, re Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code once to enter Programming Mode. Once the reader is in Programming Mode, scan a number of parameter settings before scanning the ENTER/EXIT bar code a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode and return the reader to normal operation.

There are some exceptions to the typical programming sequence described above. Please read the description and setting instructions carefully when configuring each programmable feature.

Datalogic Aladdin™ is a multi-platform utility program providing a quick and user-friendly configuration method via the RS-232/USB-COM interface. Aladdin is available on the CDROM provided with your product, and also from the Datalogic website. Aladdin allows you to program the reader by selecting configuration commands through a user-friendly graphical interface running on a PC. These commands are sent to the reader over the selected communication interface, or they can be printed as bar codes to be scanned.

The power supply connects directly to the base (not on the cable's jack) for all configurations. For all interfaces (except RS-232) a power supply is recommended but not necessary, because the base can be powered from the Host. When the base is powered from the Host, select a slow charge rate.

Configuring the Base Station

The base charger/station may be configured in desk application to hold the reader in two different positions, either a horizontal or standing position, in order to provide the most comfortable use depending on needs.

Changing the Base Station Position

The base station is configured by installing one of two sets of mechanical parts that come with the cordless kit. The default mounts (shown below) provide three options: vertical (wall) mounting, standing (45°), or horizontal mounting with a higher mechanical retention of the scanner. Use the other mounts only for horizontal mounting, with lower retention of the scanner. The different parts may be interchanged to customize retention preferences.

A tool such as a rigid pen or a flat screwdriver can be used to change the mounts. Do not allow it to touch the contacts.

1. Insert the appropriate parts for the desired base station position, as shown below.

To ensure best contact and performance, do not intermix the parts of the two different mount sets.

RF Devices

For RF devices, before configuring the interface it is necessary to link the handheld with the base. To link the handheld and the base, press the trigger to wake it and place it on the base. If the reader was previously linked to another base, you must first scan the Unlink action command before re-linking to the new base.

BT Models only

Remember: The mandatory condition for establishing a new linking between a BT handheld and a BT base is that the handheld is unlinked and they share the same security configuration. A successful link is indicated by three ascending tones from the reader. A high-low-high-low tone indicates the link attempt was unsuccessful. A single green LED flash after this tone indicates no Base Station was discovered. Two green LED flashes after this tone indicates that more than one Base Station was discovered and the reader did not link. Three LED flashes after this tone indicate a security error.
