POWERSCAN® END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT

Notice to End User: The Datalogic Product you have acquired contains embedded Software, which is integral to the product’s operation. This Software is being provided to you under license, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If you use the Datalogic Product, you will be deemed to have accepted the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If you do not intend to be bound to the terms of this Agreement, Datalogic is not willing to license the Software to you, you may not use the Datalogic Product or the Software, and you must contact the party from whom you acquired the Datalogic Product for instructions.

This End User Software License Agreement (“Agreement”) is a legally binding agreement governing the licensing of the Software and Documentation by Datalogic, Scanning Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries and affiliates (“Datalogic”) to the entity or person who has purchased or otherwise acquired a Datalogic Product (“End User”). For purposes of this Agreement, any software that is associated with a separate end-user license agreement is licensed to you under the terms of that license agreement. Datalogic and End User hereby agree as follows:

1. Definitions.

1.1 "Documentation" means materials such as user’s guides, program reference guides, quick reference guides, manuals, or similar materials associated with or related to the Datalogic Product, whether in printed, “online”, or other form.

1.2 "Proprietary Information" means: (a) source code, object code, software, documentation, and any related internal design, system design, data base design, algorithms, technology, technical data or information, implementation techniques, and trade secrets related to the Software, (b) any other trade secrets marked appropriately or identified as proprietary or confidential, and (c) any information that End User, under the circumstances, should recognize as confidential. Proprietary Information does not include any information that the receiving party can establish was (1) in the public domain, (2) already in the receiving party’s possession or rightfully known prior to receipt, (3) rightfully learned from a third party not in violation of any other's proprietary rights, or (4) independently developed without access to Proprietary Information.

1.3 “Datalogic Product” means the Datalogic Powerscan® series, Powerscan® Imager series, Powerscan® EP series, Powerscan® LR series, Powerscan® HD series, and/or Powerscan RF® series scanner and/or scanner/scale product, including all embedded Software in and all Documentation related to such product, which has been purchased or otherwise acquired by End User, whether obtained directly or indirectly from Datalogic.

1.4 "Software" means any software or computer programs of Datalogic or its third party licensors in machine readable form which is embedded in the Datalogic Product, whether obtained directly or indirectly from Datalogic, including any replacement, update, upgrade, enhancement or modification.

2. Scope Of License Granted.

2.1 Datalogic grants to End User a non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual license to use the Software, solely on the Datalogic Product in which it is embedded (“designated Datalogic Product”), in machine-readable form only, solely for End User's internal business purposes. This Agreement does not convey ownership of the Software to End User. Title to the Software shall be and remain with Datalogic or the third party from whom Datalogic has obtained a licensed right. As used in this Agreement, the term “purchase” or its equivalents when applied to the Software shall mean “acquire under license.” End User is not entitled to receipt or use of the source code to any Software.

2.2 End User shall not copy, modify, decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise reproduce or remanufacture the Software, whether modified or unmodified, nor sell, assign, sublicense, distribute, lend, rent, give, or otherwise transfer the Software to any other person or organization, for purposes other than as expressly provided in this Agreement, without Datalogic’s prior written consent.

3. Transfers, Support.

3.1 Any copying, installing, reproduction, remanufacture, reverse engineering, electronic transfer, or other use of the Software on other than the designated Datalogic Product will be a material breach of this Agreement. However, Datalogic may elect not to terminate this Agreement or the granted licenses, but instead may elect to notify End User that End User is deemed to have ordered and accepted a license for each breaching use. End User shall pay Datalogic the applicable list price for such licenses as of the date of such breach.

3.2 End User shall not sell, assign, sublicense, distribute, lend, rent, give, or otherwise transfer the Datalogic Product to any third party unless such third party agrees with Datalogic in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any such transfer of the Datalogic Product absent such agreement shall be null and void.

3.3 End User may obtain support for Software from Datalogic at Datalogic’s standard support fees and under Datalogic’s standard support terms and conditions in effect at the time the support is requested.

4. Intellectual Property.

End User acknowledges that the Software constitutes valuable trade secrets of Datalogic or Datalogic’s third party licensors and that the Software is protected by intellectual property laws and treaties. The license set forth in this Agreement does not transfer to End User any ownership of Datalogic’s or its third party licensors' copyrights, patents, trademarks, service marks, trade secrets, or other intellectual property rights and End User shall have no right to commence any legal actions to obtain such rights. End User shall not remove, modify, or take any other action that would obscure any copyright, trademark, patent marking, or other intellectual property notices contained in or on the Datalogic Product.

5. Proprietary Information.

5.1 End User acknowledges that Proprietary Information is the confidential, proprietary, and trade secret property of Datalogic and Datalogic’s third party licensors and End User acquires no right or interest in any Proprietary

User’s Guide i

Information.

5.2 End User shall not disclose, provide, or otherwise make available the Proprietary Information of Datalogic or its third party licensors to any person other than End User’s authorized employees or agents who are under confidentiality agreement, and End User shall not use the Proprietary Information other than in conjunction with use of the Datalogic Product exclusively for End User’s internal business purposes. End User shall take steps to protect the Proprietary Information no less securely than if it were End User's own intellectual property.

5.3 The provisions of this Proprietary Information Section shall survive and continue for five (5) years after the termination of this Agreement.

Unpacking and Inspecting Your Scanner

After unpacking your new scanner, check the contents of the shipping carton to ensure all the items you ordered are included:

• PowerScan

handheld scanner

•Interface Cable

• Power Supply (if you ordered one)

• User’s Guide (this manual)

• Programming Guide

• Optional Accessories that you ordered. (The PowerScan handheld bar code scanner can be purchased with or without accessory kits.)

If your package contains wrong or missing components, contact your place of purchase. If there are damaged components, immediately file a claim with the carrier. You may want to save your packing material in case you need to ship the scanner at some later time.

Manuals for the PowerScan scanner are available on our website. See the back cover for our web address.

NOTE

User’s Guide 5

Installation

Refer to Figure 1 and follow these steps to install the scanner: Consult your host terminal manual to determine if power must be

turned off before connecting peripheral devices such as the scanner.

1. Should you need to disconnect the interface (I/F) cable from the scanner, loosen the Phillips head screw at the bottom of the handle and rotate the cable restraint clip away from the cable to release it. Reverse this procedure to connect the

cable.

Do not attempt to pull the End Cap off, as this may damage the scanner.

CAUTION

2. Connect the I/F cable to the proper port on the host terminal.

3. If your system requires an AC/DC adapter to power the scanner, connect the adapter's power cord at the I/F connector. (Note: In most cases, the scanner uses Power Off the Terminal [P.O.T.], and does not require this step.) Contact your Datalogic dealer if you’re not sure if an AC/DC adapter should be used with your system.

4. Connect the AC/DC adapter at the wall outlet. (P.O.T. units skip this step.)

5. Verify operation—point at a flat surface and pull the trigger. A red beam should be visible. Scan a sample bar code and confirm that the scanner reads the bar code by beeping and/ or sending the data to the host terminal.

Power Supply

Models require either a Listed class II or class III with a Limited Power Source (LPS). For the safety certification to be valid, class III input power sources must be IEC/EN60950-1 (EN 60335-series, EN 60065 or relevant) approved. Input: 100 - 240 VAC Output: 9 - 10 VDC Max. Current: 2.0 A Max. Power: 20 W

User’s Guide 7

How to Scan

Figure 2 illustrates some tips to help get the best scanning results:

1. The scanner must be pointed at a slight angle to the bar code. Do not hold the scanner perpendicular to the bar code.

2. The laser beam must cross the entire bar code. The scanner cannot correctly read if the entire bar code is not scanned.

There are currently four different model types for this scanner. Depending upon the model type of your scanner, you’ll need to hold the unit at a given distance from the bar code to achieve optimum scanning results. The following diagrams provide range of field information for each of the models when scanning grade A, Code 39 bar codes: Standard Range (SR), High Density (HD), Long Range (LR) and Extra Long Range (XLR).

In the context of the illustration below, a "mil" represents the minimum bar code element width. Measurements are based on SR models set with the standard 28° scan width (as opposed to the Half Angle setting of 14°). Reference the PowerScan Pro-

User’s Guide 15

Troubleshooting

You can isolate problems with your scanning system by performing these checks (refer to Figure 9):

1. If your scanner’s cable is designed to receive Power Off the

Terminal (P.O.T.), it will not operate unless it is connected to a working host terminal that is powered on.

2. Ensure that the interface cable is securely attached to the

host. Consult your technical support manager or refer to your host system manual to identify the proper connection for the scanner.

3. If an external power supply is used, verify that it is securely

connected to the interface cable and AC outlet. Also ensure that the power supply is the correct voltage rating for your area.

4. Check to see that the interface cable is securely connected at

the scanner handle. Push the connector in to assure that it is firmly seated. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to ensure that the screw at the bottom of the scanner is fully tightened (but do not overtighten).

5. If, after checking all connections, the scanner still fails to

function properly, exchange the power supply with a known good power supply.

6. Ensure that the scanner's interface type is compatible with

the host terminal by consulting your POS system manual and/or the PowerScan Scanner Programming Guide.

7. Verify that the bar codes you are scanning are of satisfactory

quality. Bar code label verifiers are available from your dealer if you need precise reporting of bar code details. Bar codes that are damaged (wrinkled, smudged, or torn) may cause the scanner to read poorly or not at all. If bar code quality seems to be the problem, check to see if the scanner will read a known good bar code (see Figure 7). You may also want to modify the programmable setting for advanced Quadralogic II titled, Enhanced Scanning for Hard-to-Read Bar Codes).

INSTALLATION

In Abbildung 1 sind die Installationsschritte dargestellt. Informationen über das Abschalten und Herunterfahren des ange-

schlossenen Rechners, wie es vor dem Anschluß etwaiger Peripheriegeräte wie eines Scanners gegebenenfalls vorzunehmen ist, finden Sie in der entsprechenden Bedienungsanleitung Ihres Rechners.

1. Müssen Sie das Interface Kabel am Scanner anschließen oder

entfernen, gehen Sie wie folgt vor: Lösen Sie die Phillips Befestigungsschraube an der Unterseite des Handgriffs. Drehen Sie dann den Halterungs-clip des Kabels, um die Halterungs-clip des Kabels zu lockern. Soll das Kabel wieder

befestigt werden, gehen Sie in umgekehrter Reihenfolge vor.

Probieren Sie nicht die Endkappe einfach herunterzuziehen. Dadurch wird der Scanner beschädigt.

ACHTUNG

2. Schließen Sie das Interface Kabel an die entsprechende

Anschlußbuchse des Rechners an.

3. Arbeitet Ihr System zum Stromanschluß mit einem AC/DC

Adapter zur Stromversorgung des Scanners, schließen Sie das Kabel des AC/DC Spannungsadapters an die Interfacebuchse an. (Beachten Sie: In den meisten Fällen wird Ihr Scanner mit der P.O.T. Option (Power Off the Terminal) ausgerüstet sein, so daß dieser Schritt nicht notwendig ist.) Ihr Datalogic Händler gibt Ihnen gern Auskunft, ob Sie für Ihr System einen AC/DC Adapter benötigen.

4. Schließen Sie den AC/DC Adapter an die Netzsteckdose an

(ebenfalls unnötig bei der P.O.T. Option).

5. Überprüfen Sie die Betriebsbereitschaft des Scanners, indem

Sie die Scanfläche gegen eine flache Oberfläche richten und den Trigger auslösen. Eine helle rote Laserlichtlinie sollte jetzt sichtbar sein. Scannen Sie jetzt ein Musterlabel. Der Scanner bestätigt durch ein Audiosignal, daß das Label gelesen wurde; gegebenfalls werden die Daten an den Rechner weitergeleitet.

Fehlersuche

Zur Problemerkennung und Fehlersuche überprüfen Sie Ihren Scanner wie folgt (siehe Abb. 9):

1. Ist der Scanner mit der P.O.T. Option ausgerüstet, benötigt er zur Betriebsbereitschaft den Anschluß an den Rechner, über den er mit Spannung versorgt wird. Überprüfen Sie, daß der Scanner am Rechner angeschlossen und der Rechner betriebs-bereit und eingeschaltet ist.

2. Stellen Sie sicher, daß das Interface Kabel sicher am Rechner befestigt ist. Im Handbuch des Rechners finden Sie Informationen zum richtigen Anschluß des Scanners. Unterstützung erhalten Sie auch bei Ihrem technischen Personal.

3. Arbeitet Ihr System mit einer externen Spannungsversorgung, stellen Sie sicher, daß das Netzgerät sicher mit Scanner und AC Gerät befestigt ist. Überprüfen Sie auch, daß das Gerät mit der für Sie richtigen Spannung arbeitet und entsprechend eingestellt ist.

4. Überprüfen Sie, daß das Interface Kabel sicher am Handgriff des Scanners befestigt ist. Drücken Sie den Anschluss, bis er fest sitzt. Ziehen Sie mit einem entsprechenden Schraubenzieher die Phillips Sicherungsschraube fest an (bitte nicht überdrehen!).

5. Sollte der Scanner trotz all dieser durchgeführten Maßnahmen nicht in Betriebsbereitschaft sein, tauschen Sie das Netzgerät gegen ein anderes von Datalogic empfohlenes Netzgerät aus, von dem Sie sicher wissen, daß es funktionstüchtig ist.

6. Stellen Sie sicher, daß das Interface Ihres Scanners mit dem Rechner kompatibel ist. Informationen hierzu finden Sie im Handbuch Ihres Rechners oder im Programmierhandbuch des PowerScan.

7. Überprüfen Sie, daß die Barcode Label, die Sie scannen wollen, von zufriedenstellender Qualität sind. Musterlabel zur Überprüfung erhalten Sie von Ihrem Datalogic Händler, sollten Sie genaue Informationen der Label Details benötigen. Beschädigte Barcodelabels (zerknittert, zerrissen oder verschmutzt) können dazu führen, daß der Scanner die Label nur schlecht oder gar nicht erkennt. Vermuten Sie das Problem in der Qualität des Labels, überprüfen Sie die Lesebereitschaft mit einem qualitätsmäßig guten Label (siehe

GUIDE DE L’UTILISATEUR 37

Installation

Se référer à la Schéma 1 et suivre la procédure dans l’ordre indiqué pour l’installation du lecteur :

Consultez toute d’abord votre manuel d’utilisation du terminal principal afin de savoir s’il doit être arrêté avant de connecter tout outil périphérique comme le lecteur.

1. Si vous avez besoin de déconnecter le câble interface du lecteur, desserrez la vis Phillips situés à la base du manche et appliquez une rotation sur le clip de maintien à l’opposé de l’embase du câble afin de déconnecter celui-ci. Faites le con-

traire pour la connexion du câble..

Ne pas essayer de tirer sur le capuchon, cela pourrait endommager le lecteur.

ATTENTION

2. Connecter le câble I/F au port de communication adéquat du PC.

3. Si votre système requiert un adaptateur CA/CC pour faire fonctionner le scanner, connecter le fil d’alimentation de l’adaptateur au connecteur interface (Nota Béné : Dans la plupart des cas, le scanner se sert du courant du PC [P.O.T] et n’a pas besoin de cette manipulation). Vous pouvez contacter votre technicien Datalogic si vous n’êtes pas certain d’avoir à utiliser l’adaptateur CA/CC pour votre scanner.

4. Connecter l’adaptateur CA/CC à la prise murale (les unités P.O.T peuvent passer ce stade).

5. Vérifier l’opération en pointant le lecteur sur une surface plane et appuyer sur la gâchette. Un rayon rouge devrait être visible. Scannez un code à barres et confirmer que le lecteur déchiffre effectivement le code à barres en émettant un bip et / ou en envoyant les données sur le terminal auquel il est relié.

NOTA

Manuale d’Istruzioni 53

Installazione

Fate riferimento alla Figura 1 e seguite queste indicazioni per installare lo scanner:

Consultate il manuale del vostro terminale host per controllare se l’alimentazione deve essere interrotta prima di collegare dispositivi periferici quali lo scanner.

1. Nel caso sia necessario scollegare il cavo interfaccia (I/F) dallo scanner, allentate la vite a stella alla base dell’impugnatura e ruotate la clip che blocca il cavo in modo da liberarlo.

Invertite questa procedura per collegare il cavo.

Non cercate di staccare il tappo alla base dello scanner perché questo lo potrebbe danneggiare.

ATTENZIONE

2. Collegate il cavo I/F all’apposita porta del vostro terminale host.

3. Se il vostro sistema richiede un adattatore AC/AD per alimentare lo scanner, collegate il filo dell’adattatore al connettore del cavo I/F. (Nota: In molti casi, lo scanner utilizza l’alimentazione dal terminale [P.O.T] e non richiede questa fase.) Contattate il vostro rivenditore Datalogic nel caso non siate sicuri se il vostro sistema richiede un adattatore AC/ AD.

4. Collegate l’adattatore AC/AD alla spina a muro. (Saltare questa fase per le unità P.O.T)

5. Controllate il funzionamento - puntate verso una superficie piana e tirate lo scatto. Dovrebbe essere visibile un raggio rosso. Scandite un codice a barre di prova e verificate che lo scanner abbia effettuato la lettura del codice a barre azionando il beep e/o inviando i dati al terminale host.

54 Scanner PowerScan

Alimentazione

Questi modelli devono essere alimentati con alimentatori omologati di classe II o classe III LPS (Limited Power Source, sorgente di corrente limitata). Affinché il certificato di sicurezza sia valido, le sorgenti di alimentazione di classe III devono essere conformi a IEC/EN60950-1 (serie EN 60335, EN60065 o relativi).

Manuale d’Istruzioni 63

Ricerca e correzione di un guasto

Potete isolare i problemi con il vostro sistema di scansione effettuando i seguenti controlli (con riferimento alla Figura 9):

1. Se il cavo del vostro scanner è progettato per ricevere l’alimentazione del terminale (P.O.T), esso non entrerà in funzione a meno che non sia connesso ad un terminale host acceso.

2. Assicuratevi che il cavo interfaccia sia saldamente connesso all’host. Consultate il vostro responsabile dell’assistenza tecnica o fate riferimento al manuale di sistema del vostro calcolatore per identificare la connessione adatta per lo scanner.

3. Se si utilizza un cavo per l’alimentazione esterno, verificate che sia saldamente connesso al cavo interfaccia e alla spina AC. Inoltre assicuratevi che il cavo per l’alimentazione utilizzi un voltaggio conforme al sistema del vostro paese.

4. Controllate che il cavo interfaccia sia saldamente connesso all’impugnatura dello scanner. Fate pressione sul connettore per assicurarvi che sia saldamente inserito. Utilizzate un cacciavite a stella per assicurarvi che la vite alla base dello scanner sia completamente stretta (ma non forzate).

5. Se, dopo aver controllato tutti i collegamenti, il vostro scanner presenta ancora dei problemi, sostituite il cavo di alimentazione con un altro di sicuro funzionamento.

6. Assicuratevi che il tipo di interfaccia dello scanner sia compatibile con il vostro terminale host consultando il manuale del vostro sistema POS e/o la Guida alla Programmazione dello scanner PowerScan.

7. Verificate che i codici a barre che state scandendo siano di buona qualità. Verificatori di etichette di codici a barre sono disponibili presso il vostro rivenditore nel caso abbiate bisogno di una precisa descrizione dei dettagli del codice a barre. Codici a barre danneggiati (raggrinziti, macchiati o strappati) possono essere causa di una cattiva lettura dello scanner o possono addirittura impedire la lettura stessa. Se il problema sembra essere la qualità del codice a barre, controllate se lo scanner è in grado di leggere un altro codice a barre di buona qualità (vedi Figura 7). Potete anche modificare l’impostazione programmabile per il Decoding Quadralogic

avanzato (vedi la sezione di questo manuale intitolata

Scansione intensificata per codici a barre di difficile lettura ).
