Programming

Standard Product Default Settings
The scanner is typically factory-configured with a set of default features standard to the interface type you ordered. After scanning the interface bar code from the tion, you can select other options and customize your scanner through use of the instructions and programming bar codes available in that section and also the chapters of this manual.

Using the Programming Bar Codes

This manual contains feature descriptions and bar codes which allow you to reconfigure your scanner. Some programming bar code labels, like the label below for resetting defaults, require only the scan of that single label to enact the change. Most of the programming labels in this manual, however, require the scanner to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan a START/END bar code once to enterProgramming Mode. Once the scanner is in Programming Mode, you can scan a number of parameter settings before scanning the START/ END bar code a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode and return the scanner to normal operation.

Good Read: When to Indicate

This feature specifies when the scanner will provide indication (beep and/or flash its green LED) upon successfully reading a bar code. Choices are:
Good Read = Indicate after decode
Good Read = Indicate after transmit
Good Read = Indicate after CTS goes inactive, then active
This option (Indicate after CTS goes inactive, then active), which uses CTS, is only valid for RS-232 inter­faces. If set to this mode in other interfaces, “Indicate after decode” mode will be assumed. This setting will
NOTE
Good Read = Beep after each output structure proofed

Image Capture

Image capture requires that the scanner use the Standard RS-232 or USB COM interface ONLY.
NOTE
The scanner reverts to normal reading mode after image capture and transfer.

How to Capture an Image

By default, images are captured as 640 x 480 (VGA) format with a minimum compression ratio, and are displayed via the host application software. There are two methods of capturing images as discussed below:
Image Capture by Scanning a Special label
Image Capture to the Host by Host Command
Image Capture by Scanning a Special label
To initiate an Image Capture, scan the IMAGE CAPTURE label below.
Upon scanning this label, the scanner’s beeper will sound a “chirp” sequence and its LED's will flash rapidly for a time (nominally five seconds). At the end of this time, the scanner will capture the image and sound a rapid beep series. The scanner's LED's will then flash more slowly while data is being transmitted to the host. The beeper will then sound a final series of beeps to indi­cate the capture process is complete.
IMAGE CAPTURE

Image Capture to the Host by Host Command
Image Capture is also available through Host commands. Refer to Appendix F, Host Commands for more information.

Image Compression

03ED1E(CR)
03ED32(CR)

1. Scan the START bar code.
2. Scan the Set Image Compression bar code.

Intercharacter Delay
Specifies a delay between the end of one character and the beginning of the next in 10-millisec­ond increments. This delay is inserted after each data character transmitted. If the transmission speed is too high, the system may not be able to receive all characters. You may need to adjust the delay to make the system work properly.

ACK NAK Options
This enables/disables the ability of the scanner to support the RS-232 ACK NAK protocol. When configured, the scanner and/or host sends an “ACK” when it receives data properly, and sends “NAK” when the data is in error. Selections for this option are:
•Disable
Enable for label transmission — the scanner expects an ACK/NAK response from the host when a label is sent
Enable for host-command acknowledge — the scanner will respond with ACK NAK when the host sends a command

Data Editing Overview

These features are not supported by the USB-OEM interface.
CAUTION
When a bar code is scanned, additional information can be sent to the host computer along with the bar code data. This combination of bar code data and supplementary user-defined data is called a “message string.” The features in this chapter can be used to build specific user-defined data into a message string.
There are several types of selectable data characters that can be sent before and after scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all symbologies, or only with specific symbolo­gies.
Figure 5 shows the available elements you can add to a message string:

Character Conversion

0332(CR)
Character conversion is an eight byte configuration item. The eight bytes are 4 character pairs represented in hexadecimal ASCII values. The first character in the pair is the character that will be converted. The second character in the pair is the character to convert to. If the charac­ter to convert in a pair is FF, then no conversion is done.
For example, if you have the character conversion configuration item set to the following:
41423132FFFFFFFF
The first pair is 4142 or AB (41 hex is an ASCII capital A, 42 hex is an ASCII capital B) and the second pair is 3132 or 12 (31 hex is an ASCII 1, 32 is an ASCII 2). The other two pairs are FFFF and FFFF.
With the label, AG15TA81, it would look as follows after the character conversion: BG25TB82.
The A characters were converted to the B character and the 1 characters were converted to the numeral 2 character. Nothing is done with the last two character pairs, since they are all FF.
To set Character Conversion:
1. Scan the START/END bar code.
Character Conversion
2. Scan the Character Conversion bar code.
3. Determine the desired string. Up to sixteen positions can be determined as in the above example. Next, turn to the
ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual and find
the equivalent hex digits needed to fulfill the string.
The positions not used must be filled with the character ‘F’.
NOTE
4. Turn to
Appendix C, Alphanumeric Pad and scan the bar codes representing the hex charac-
ters determined in the previous step. When the last character is scanned, the scanner will sound a triple beep.
5. Scan the START/END bar code to exit Programming Mode.
