INTRODUCTION

1 INTRODUCTION
The QuickScan handheld device without compromise in performance. The extensive range of models and options of this family can easily meet any specific challenges required by retail, and commercial data collections applications. The QuickScan where continuous and multi-tasking activities are keys to optimum productivity, lower cost of ownership and profitable business.
1.1 READING ANGLE
QuickScan and pull the trigger. Code scanning is performed along the center of the light bar emitted from the reading window. This bar must cover the entire code.
Successful scanning is obtained by tilting the reader with respect to the barcode to avoid direct reflections, which could impair the reading performance. See the figures below.
Successful reading is obtained by an audible tone.

3.4 USB READER CONFIGURATION

The USB interface is compatible with:
Windows 98 (and later) IBM POS for Windows Mac OS 8.0 (and later) 4690 Operating System
USB Start-up
As with all USB devices, upon connection, the Host performs several checks by communicating with the QuickScan QuickScan
®
Mobile reader blinks and normal operations are suspended. Two basic conditions must be met before the QuickScan 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).
Normally the Host supplies sufficient power to the reader, the start-up phase ends correctly, the yellow LED stops blinking.
In rare cases, 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 (yellow LED continues blinking). In this case, disconnect the USB device cable at the Host
(yellow LED stops blinking); and then try a different USB port as indicated by the Operating System message. 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 page http://www.scanning.datalogic.com
The reader is ready to read barcodes. Successive start-ups will automatically recognize the previously loaded drivers.

3.5 CHANGING DEFAULT SETTINGS

Once your reader is setup, you can change the default parameters to meet your application needs. Refer to the preceding paragraphs for initial configuration in order to set the default values and select the interface for your application.
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:
RS-232
USB
WEDGE
PEN EMULATION
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.
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 connections.
RADIO PARAMETERS (Mobile series only) allow configuration of radio control parameters.

KEYBOARD SETTING

ALPHANUMERIC KEYBOARD SETTING
The reader can be used with terminals or PCs with various keyboard types and nationalities through a simple keyboard setting procedure.
The type of computer or terminal must be selected before activating the keyboard setting command.
Keyboard setting consists of communicating to the reader how to send data corresponding to the keyboard used in the application. The keys must be set in a specific order.
Press and release a key to set it.
Some characters may require more than one key pressed simultaneously during normal use (refer to the manual of your PC or terminal for keyboard use). The exact sequence must be indicated to the reader in this case pressing and releasing the different keys.
Example:
If one has to press the "Shift" and "4" keys simultaneously on the keyboard to transmit the character "$" to the video, to set the "$", press and release "Shift" then press and release "4".
Each pressed and released key must generate an acoustic signal on the reader, otherwise repress the key. Never press more than one key at the same time, even if this corresponds to the normal use of your keyboard.
Press "Backspace" to correct a wrong key entry. In this case the reader emits 2 beeps. Note: "CAPS LOCK" and "NUM LOCK" must be off before starting the keyboard setting procedure. "SHIFT" must be repressed for each character and cannot be substituted by "CAPS LOCK".
setting the alphanumeric keyboard
Read the code above. Press the keys shown in the following table according to their numerical order.
Some ASCII characters may be missing as this depends on the type of keyboard: these are generally particular characters relative to the various national symbologies. In this case:
The first 4 characters (Shift, Alt, Ctrl, and Backspace) can only be substituted with

characters can be substituted with others corresponding to your keyboard.
The reader signals the end of the procedure with 2 beeps indicating the keys have been registered.

AIM standard identifiers are not defined for all codes: the X identifier is assigned to the
code for which the standard is not defined. The y value depends on the selected options (check digit tested or not, check digit tx or not, etc.).
When customizing the Datalogic Standard code identifiers, 1 or 2 identifier characters can
be defined for each code type. If only 1 identifier character is required, the second character must be selected as FF (disabled).
The code identifier can be singly disabled for any code by simply selecting FF as the first
identifier character.
