CONFIGURATION METHODS
Reading Configuration Barcodes
If you wish to change the default settings, this manual provides complete
configuration of your reader in an easy way:
To configure your reader:
1) Open the folded page in Appendix C with the hex-numeric table and keep it
open during the device configuration.
2) Read the Enter Configuration code ONCE, available at the top of each page
of configuration.
3) Modify the desired parameters in one or more sections following the
procedures given for each group.
4) Read the Exit and Save Configuration code ONCE, available at the top of
each page of configuration.
Reference notes describing the operation of the more complex parameters are given
in chapter 4.
Using DL Sm@rtSet
DL Sm@rtSet is a Windows-based utility program providing a quick and user-friendly
configuration method via the RS232 or USB-COM interfaces.
It also allows upgrading the software of the connected device (see the DL Sm@rtSet
User’s Manual for more details).
Copy Command
A previously configured reader (Master device), can be used to send its configuration
directly to other readers of the same type. The particular procedure for each device is
given in par. 4.9.
vi
Sending Configuration Strings from Host
An alternative configuration method is provided in Appendix A using the RS232 or
USB interfa
configured with the same settings. Batch files containing the desired parameter
settings can be prepared to configure devices quickly and easily.

INTRODUCTION
1 INTRODUCTION
This manual provides all the necessary information for complete software
configuration of various Datalogic families of second generation Hand-Held Devices
(HHD II), including CCD guns and readers and laser scanners.
Your reader contains a built-in decoder
It is designed for use in a wide variety of applications and environments including
commercial, office automation, retail, and light industrial applications where
large quantities of information need to be collected rapidly, easily and reliably.
It has several status indicator functions which are described in the next paragraph.
and multi-standard interface.

HHD II
1.1 STATUS INDICATORS
Several status indicators are available depending on the type of reader: LEDs,
Beeper, and Good Read Spot (for CCD Long Range readers only). They signal
several operating conditions which are described in the tables below.
H = high tone L = low tone

Beeper1 Meaning
L L L L Parameters loaded correctly
H H H H

Parameter loading error, reading or writing error in the non volatile
memory
H L H L Hardware error in EEPROM
OFF No beeper performed when illuminator line is kept high at power on.
READER CONFIGURATION
Beeper1 Meaning
H H H H correct entry in Configuration mode

L L L command read error
L H H H H exit from Configuration mode

2.1 INTERFACE SELECTION
Follow the procedure to configure the interface required by your application
• USB Interface
• RS232 Interface
• Wedge Interface
• Pen Emulation Interface
• IBM 46xx Interface
2.1.1 USB Interface Configuration
The USB interface is compatible with:
- Windows 98 (and later)
- Mac OS 8.0 (and later)
- IBM POS for Windows
- 4690 Operating System
The USB interface is compatible with:
Windows 98 (and later) IBM POS for Windows
Mac OS 8.0 (and later) 4690 Operating System
START-UP
As with all USB devices, upon connection, the Host performs several checks by
communicating with the USB device. During this phase the LED on the device blinks
and normal operations are suspended. Two basic conditions must be met before the
USB device is ready to read codes, the correct USB driver must be loaded and
sufficient power must be supplied to the reader
For all systems, the correct USB driver for the default USB-KBD interface is included
in the Host Operating System and will either be loaded automatically or will be
suggested by the O.S. and should therefore be selected from the dialog box (the first
time only).
If the Host supplies sufficient power to the reader, the start-up phase ends correctly,
the LED stops blinking and the reader emits the beep OK signal.
.

HHD II
(
)
If the Host does not supply sufficient power to the reader, a dialog box will appear on
the Host and the reader will be blocked (LED continues blinking). In this case,
disconnect the USB device cable at the Host (LED stops blinking), connect and
power-up an external supply to the USB device cable then
reconnect the USB device
cable to the Host and close the dialog box. The reader emits the beep OK signal.
You can now read codes. At this point you can read the USB interface configuration
code according to your application. Load drivers from the O.S. (if requested). When
configuring the USB-COM interface, the relevant files and drivers must be installed
from the USB Device Installation software which can be downloaded from the web
site: http://www.scanning.datalogic.com.
The reader is ready.

3 CONFIGURATION
Once your reader is setup, you can change the default parameters to meet your
application needs. Refer to chapter 2 for initial configuration in order to set the default
values and select the interfac
In this manual, the configuration parameters are divided into logical groups making it
easy to find the desired function based on its reference group.
The first four groups are for Standard Interface parameter configuration, the fifth is
only for IBM 46xx models:
• USB
• RS232
• WEDGE
• PEN EMULATION
• IBM 46xx
The following parameter groups are common to all interface applications:
DATA FORMAT parameters regard the messages sent to the Host system for all
interfaces except Pen Emulation.
POWER SAVE manages overall current consumption in the reading device.
READING PARAMETERS control various operating modes and indicator status
functioning.
DECODING PARAMETERS maintain correct barcode decoding in certain special
reading conditions.
CODE SELECTION parameters allow configuration of a personalized mix of codes,
code families and their options.
ADVANCED FORMATTING PARAMETERS allow code concatenation and
advanced formatting of messages towards the Host. It cannot be used with Pen
Emulation.
