Getting Started

Connecting the Scanner

The scanner kit you ordered to match your interface should provide a compatible cable for your installation. Alternatively, if your scanner receives Power Off the Terminal (POT) it might be possible to connect using a cable from a previously existing installation (except for USB). If you wish to connect using an existing cable, but cannot use POT, a short adapter cable is available. Check with your technical support representative about compatibility before connecting. Use the appropriate instructions below when you’re ready to connect the scanner to the terminal, PC or other host device.
Upon completing the connection via the appropriate interface instructions below, proceed to the
Interface Related Features section of this manual and scan the bar code to select the correct
interface type.
RS-232 Serial Connection —
to the terminal/PC serial port via the RS-232 cable as shown in
Turn off power to the terminal/PC and connect the scanner

Standard Product Default Settings

Programming

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 enter Programming 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.

Data Editing and Symbologies
If you are unsure of what programming options are in your scanner, or you’ve changed some options and want the factory settings restored, scan the Standard Product Default Settings bar code below. This will copy the factory configuration for the currently active interface to the cur­rent configuration.
The programming section lists the factory default settings for each of the menu commands for the standard RS-232 interface in tings for the other interfaces can be found in

Image Capture

How to Capture an Image

There are two methods of capturing images as discussed below:
•
Image Capture to a microSD Card by Scanning a Special Label
• Image Capture to the Host by Host Command
Image Capture to a microSD Card by Scanning a Special Label
Insert a micro SD card into the scanner, scan a capture label and place the item to be captured in front of the scanner. If an optional Remote Camera Button is connected to the auxiliary port, then press the Remote Camera Button to write an image to the microSD card. If no Remote Camera Button is connected, the image will be written to the micro SD card five seconds after scanning the capture label.
Chapter 3

Image Capture

The format, size, contrast, brightness and compression use the configured values.
This Capture label format is as follows:
<FNC3>IMAGEFAUTO<CR>
The Capture label will not read unless a microSD card is inserted.
NOTE
The image filename is automatically increased from image000 to image999.
The date image file generated is not actual, since no real time clock is embedded in the scanner.

Image Capture to the Host by Host Command
This feature is only available for RS-232 and USB COM interfaces.
If the USB COM interface has been selected, follow the
Set-up
instructions in the Interface Related Features chapter of this guide.
NOTE
The host command format is as follows:
P<cnt>pSBC
where:
P - ASCII 'P' used as preamble of pass-through commands <cnt> - binary value of 4 indicating 4 bytes to follow p - ASCII lowercase 'p' ; command to take a picture S - size value of image as ASCII character
‘S’ == uses scanner's configuration value ‘0’-VGA, (640X480) ‘1’-WVGA, (752X480) ‘2’-SXGA, (1280x1027) ‘3’-CIF (320x240)
B - brightness value in ASCII
‘B’ == uses scanner's configuration value CI_IMAGE_BRIGHTNESS else ‘0’ thru’9’ specifies brightness
C - contrast value in ASCII
‘C’ == uses scanner configuration value CI_IMAGE_CONTRAST else ‘0’ thru’9’ specifies contrast
USB COM Interface
IF the image is of a type the scanner supports, capture and transmission occurs, and the com­mand is of proper format THEN
The scanner will transmit an ACK (0x06) to the Host in response to this command.
The image data transmission starts with a 4 byte binary field representing (Big Endian) number of bytes to follow.
If the “number of bytes to follow” value is zero, there was a problem with generating the image and the request should be retried.
ELSE
The scanner will transmit a BEL (0x07) to the Host in response to this command.

This feature is used for applications where “daisy chaining” of RS-232 devices onto the same cable is necessary. If, for example, one of the devices in the chain is a terminal where someone is entering data while another person is simultaneously scanning a bar code requiring transmission to the host, the scanner will wait for the RS-232 channel to be quiet for a specified period of time (set

Data Editing Overview

It is not recommended to use these features with IBM interfaces.
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 5-1 shows the available elements you can add to a message string:
Chapter 5

Please Keep In Mind...

• Modifying a message string is not a mandatory requirement. Data editing is sophisticated feature allowing highly customizable output for advanced users. Factory default settings for data editing is typically set to NONE.
• A prefix or suffix may be applied (reference the across all symbologies (set via the Global features in this chapter).

Label ID
A Label ID is used to identify a bar code (symbology) type. See Appendix D, Factory Default Set-
, for a listing for common symbologies. It can be appended previous to or following the
tings
transmitted bar code data depending upon how this option is enabled. This feature provides options for configuring custom Label IDs individually per symbology. If you wish to program the scanner to always include an industry standard label identifier for ALL symbology types, see the previous feature,
AIM ID.
The Label ID is a customizable code of up to three ASCII characters (each of which are 00-FF) followed by a control character (00-01), This control character, when set to zero, does nothing. When set to one, it appends the symbology’s AIM ID to the Label ID.
When the control character is set to 01 for UPC-A and UPC-E, it expands the label to EAN-13 and thus follows the EAN-13 Label ID settings.
NOTE
To configure a Label ID:
1. Scan the START bar code.
2. Select Label ID position as either BEFORE or AFTER by scanning the appropriate bar code.
3. Scan a bar code to select the symbology for which you wish to configure a custom Label ID.
4. Determine the desired character(s) (you may choose up to three) which will represent the Label ID for the selected symbology. Next, turn to the
ASCII Chart on the inside back
cover of this manual and find the equivalent hex digits associated with your choice of Label ID. For example, if you wish to select an equal sign (=) as a Label ID, the chart indi­cates its associated hex characters as 3D.
5. Turn to
Appendix C, Alpha-Numeric Pad and scan the bar codes representing the hex charac-
ters determined in the previous step. For example, to make an equal sign (=), scan ‘3’ and ‘D’ followed by ‘0’ six times. Since this is a three-character buffer, ‘00’ is scanned for char­acter two, ‘00’ for character three and ‘00’ for the control character. (‘00’ indicates no character.)
6. Scan the END bar code to exit programming mode.

Character Conversion

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, Alpha-Numeric 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.
