Introduction
This manual contains instructions for changing interfaces and bar codes
for customizing the scanner's operation. Since the
scanner contains software enhancements and characteristics that set it
apart from other scanners, it is recommended that this guide be used as
the sole source of programming labels and information (except for other

The organization of this manual is intended to support a variety of users
while making it quick and easy to find the information you need. Look at
the descriptions that follow to find where to go from here.
product-specific publications).
Understanding the Basics
If you do not regularly use bar code labels to configure (program)
scanners, it will be very helpful to read the introductory portions of this
manual prior to beginning your programming session. In addition to the
information that follows, information of specific interest to you is titled:
— Integrating Peripherals with Host Systems
— Changing Interfaces
— Customizing Your Scanner Operation
— Programming Overview
— What is Programming Mode?
— How to Program Using Bar codes
— The Programming Session
— Scanner Response When in Programming Mode
— If You Make A Mistake
— Where to Go From Here
Integrating Peripherals With Host Systems
It's important to understand that the scanner must contain software and
hardware that supports a specific interface in order to use that interface.
The following pages describe interface hardware and list software interface groups available on current models.
QuickScan 6000/6000 Plus
Optimally, you'll want details about how your scanner was configured at
the factory before attempting to customize any settings. If you don't have
that information, contact your dealer for factory configuration information.
After determining the changes and/or additions you desire, locate the
programming labels and follow the related instructions in this manual to
adjust the scanner. Once you've completed these steps, you can begin
scanning.
Programming Guide 1
Changing Interfaces
To change a scanner's interface…
Hardware
If necessary, replace the scanner's interface cable to match the new host
terminal's connection requirements. To disconnect the cable from the
scanner, insert a .050” hex driver or bent paper clip into the CABLE RELEASE hole, and press down to unlock the cable connector. Reference
Figure 1.
NOTE
We recommend that you disconnect power before plugging/
unplugging cables to avoid any possibility of equipment damage.

1. Verify that your scanner supports the desired interface1. The list
on the following page indicates interfaces available at the time of
this writing. Your scanner comes equipped from the factory with
the ability to connect and communicate with at least two major
interface types. For example, OCIA/RS-232 and Keyboard Wedge/
Wand Emulation are two common pairings. Contact your nearest service
depot if you don't know your scanner's interface group, or need to have the
scanner altered to change to another I/F group.
1 Contact your dealer if your desired interface is not listed. Interface group definitions
are subject to change without notice.

2. Turn to the appropriate page in this manual and enable the
desired interface or interface sub-type by scanning its programming bar code. These interface/interface sub-type
selection bar codes are located at the beginning of each of
these sections of the manual: IBM, OCIA, Wand Emulation,
RS-232, and Keyboard Wedge. This will enable the software
for the new interface and disable the 'old' interface software.
Once enabled, the new interface becomes the default interface that is active whenever power is applied to the scanner.
3. Scan a bar code to verify that the scanner communicates
correctly with the host system. Some sample bar codes are
provided on the last pages of this manual. If any changes to
the scanner's factory settings are needed, use the instructions
titled, Customizing Your Scanner Operation.
Programming Guide 3
Customizing Your Scanner Operation
When enabling a new interface, it may be necessary to modify the original factory
settings to match your specific host system's communication and symbology
requirements. Check with your system administrator to identify your host system's
specific interface requirements to ensure that they match the new interface you've
selected. Also, the scanner's operational features, such as speaker volume, can be
customized to match your unique requirements.
1. Use the labels in this manual to modify the standard configuration to
match your specific interface requirements or user preference.
NOTE
Ensure that your planned modifications are compatible with the
current interface. For example, baud rate selections are only valid
in the RS-232 interface. The scanner will sound an error tone (six
rapid beeps) when scanning programming labels for features
invalid to the current interface.
2. Enable any additional symbologies as required and exit
Programming Mode.
3. Scan a regular bar code label and verify that the scanner and
host communicate correctly.
4. You have completed the factory settings change procedure.
If you experience difficulties, have questions or require additional information, contact your local distributor using the listings located on the
back cover of this guide.

QuickScan 6000/6000 Plus
Programming Overview
This section describes how to set the scanner's programmable features. These
features can be configured using the bar code labels contained in this manual or by
using commands sent from the host. Refer to Appendix A, Additional Information,
for host programming details. If you program the scanner using these bar codes, the
scanner stores the changes until reprogrammed.
What Is Programming Mode?
To change the scanner's programmed settings, it is necessary to place the
scanner in Programming Mode using the special SET label. This ensures
that the scanner only recognizes the special programming labels contained in this programming guide.
How To Program Using Bar Codes
The following pages contain special bar code labels that are used to
change or enable the scanner's programmable options. All programming
sessions follow this order, unless otherwise instructed:
1. Scan the SET label at the top of the page. The scanner will
emit a 'good read' beep, indicating it has read the label.
2. Scan the feature label(s) for the programmable options
you wish to enable. With few exceptions1, the scanner will
emit a triple beep each time you scan a valid programming
label. (Note that not all features are available for all interfaces and that the scanner will sound an error tone when
scanning programming labels for features invalid to the
current interface.)
3. Scan the END label at the bottom of the page to complete
the programming session and exit Programming Mode. The
scanner will sound one 'good read' beep upon exiting
Programming Mode.
4. Maintain a good record of all changes made to ensure that
you know if the original factory settings have been changed.
1 Some features, such as Minimum Label Length or Label ID, require you to select the length
by scanning a series of single-digit bar codes. A single 'good read' beep is sounded
when scanning these single digits in Programming Mode. Only the final required digit
in the sequence will produce a triple beep when scanned, indicating a successfully
programmed feature.
Programming Guide 5
The Programming Session
It is possible to program multiple features during a single programming
session (a programming session is defined as the period of time between
scanning the “set” label and scanning the “end” label). However, it is recommended
that sessions be limited to one feature, as it can be difficult to discover where an error
has been made, should you make a mistake in the programming sequence. Additionally, it can be confusing to determine which features may or may not have been
successfully set following such a session.
The scanner will not exit Programming Mode unless the END label is scanned.
Disconnecting power during Programming Mode, before scanning the END label,
will cause the scanner to forget any programming labels scanned during the current
programming session and will cause the scanner to return to its previous settings.
Scanner Response When In Programming Mode
As discussed earlier, Programming Mode is entered by scanning a SET
label. The green LED will flash continuously at 1Hz duty cycle while the
scanner is in Programming Mode. As long as it is in Programming Mode,
the scanner will not decode regular bar code labels and will only enable
features supported by the currently active interface.
Scanning regular (non-programming) bar code labels — the
scanner will reject the label, sounding an error tone (six rapid
beeps).
Scanning a valid programming label —
a. If the feature is supported by the active interface, the
scanner will sound three beeps.
b. If incorrect programming has been entered, the error tone
will be sounded (six rapid beeps). Additionally, when
programming a feature requiring you to scan single digits
to set a multi-digit number, such as Minimum Label
Length or Label ID, scanning the END label before
completing all input will result in an error tone and cause
the scanner to exit Programming Mode. Under these
circumstances, the current feature you were trying to set
is thrown out; any previous labels scanned during the
session will take effect.

QuickScan 6000/6000 Plus
If You Make a Mistake...
If, during a programming session, you find that you are unsure of the scanner's
settings or wish to reset the scanner's configuration, use the Return to Factory
Settings label on this page to return the scanner's configuration to the factory settings.
Scanning this label will also reset any changes made during previous programming
sessions.
Return to Factory Settings
Scan this label to return the scanner to the default settings configured at the factory for
your scanner’s original interface specifications. This label is typically used to return the
scanner to a “known” operating state when the present programming status is not
known, faulty, or suspect.
WARNING
Use this label with caution, since it will disable ALL features that
may have been programmed since the scanner’s installation.
If you don't have a record of your site/system's original configuration, you may need
to call your nearest service depot for assistance to return the scanner to normal
function. Please be prepared to provide information about the store/chain, location,
POS system and other pertinent information about the scanner being repaired.
Programming Guide 7
Where To Go From Here
Programming is easy and straightforward if you follow these steps:
1. If you are changing interfaces, first connect the scanner to the new host
using the new interface cable. Scan the interface enable bar code label1 .
2. Scan any feature labels that are unique to the interface you are currently
programming. These interface specific programming labels immediately follow each interface selection label.
3. Turn to the Symbology section if you are going to change any bar code
symbologies or modify any symbology related features.
4. Turn to the General Features section of this guide if you wish to
change or modify any of the scanner's other features.
Once the necessary changes have been made, and you have scanned the END label,
you are ready to scan.
1 This step is not necessary for QuickScan 6000 Plus scanners, unless you require a
specific interface sub-type such as SNI OCIA or IBM sub-type 4682/92 Port E.
Interface software is automatically selected when the QuickScan 6000 Plus hardware
connection (via a new interface cable) is made.

Handshaking
Review your system documentation to identify handshaking requirements,
and use these labels to change the settings if required. The following brief
descriptions explain each selection.
Hardware Control
CTS/RTS Flow Control — is hardware handshaking. The
scanner activates the RTS (Ready to Send) line when it is ready to
send data to the host. The scanner waits for an active Clear to
Send (CTS) signal from the host before transmitting data. If
hardware control is disabled, CTS/RTS communication will not
take place. If the host deactivates the CTS line during data transmission, the host will receive additional characters for no more
than 2msec1.

Software Control
XON/XOFF — this is software handshaking that allows the host to
control data transmission. If the host sends an XOFF command to
the scanner, the scanner will not send the bar code data until it
receives an XON command from the host. If the host sends the
XOFF command during data transmission, the host will receive
additional characters for no more than 2msec1.
NOTE
Hardware/software controls are mutually exclusive. Enable only one
of these features at a time, as enabling multiple controls can produce
unpredictable results.

Symbology-Specific Label I.D.
Setting Symbology-Specific Label Identifiers (Label I.D.)
Symbology-specific label identifiers comprise one or two ASCII characters
that can precede or follow barcode label data as it is transmitted to the
host. The host uses these characters as a means of distinguishing between symbologies.
Industry standards have been established for symbology-specific label
identifiers, and are listed in the table below. Most scanners will have
factory default identifiers preset to these standards.
Table 1. Industry Standard Label Identifiers (all are prefixes)
UPC-A ------------------------------ 'A' EAN-8 (5 Add-on) ------------ 'FF'
UPC-E ------------------------------ 'E' EAN-8 (8 Add-on) ------------- 'FF'
EAN-8 ---------------------------- 'FF' EAN-13 (2 add-on) ------------- 'F'
EAN-13 ----------------------------- 'F' EAN-13 (5 Add-on) ------------- 'F'
UPC-A (2 add-on) -------------- 'A' EAN-13 (8 Add-on)-------------- 'F'
UPC-A (5 Add-on) -------------- 'A' Code 39 ----------------------------- '*'
UPC-A (8 Add-on) --------------- 'A' Codabar --------------------------- '%'
UPC-E (2 add-on) -------------- 'E' Interleaved.2 of 5 ---------------- 'i'
UPC-E (5 Add-on) -------------- 'E' Code 93 ---------------------------- '&'
UPC-E (8 Add-on) --------------- 'E' Code 128 -------------------------- '#'
EAN-8 (2 add-on) ------------- 'FF' MSI/Plessey --------------------- '@'
To set symbology-specific label identifiers:
1. Look at the ASCII chart shown on the previous page and
identify the ASCII character(s) and the corresponding Hex
Code(s) for the ASCII characters you will use as identifiers.
You will also need to determine whether the character(s) will
need to be sent as a prefix or a suffix.
For example: You need to change the label identifier prefix for
UPC-A to 'A1'.
2. Scan the SET label below.
3. Scan either the TRANSMIT LABEL I.D. AS PREFIX or TRANSMIT LABEL I.D. AS SUFFIX, depending on your requirements.
For our example, the 'transmit as prefix' label would be scanned.
Programming Guide 39
Setting Symbology Specific Label Identifiers (Label I.D.)
(Continued)
4. Scan the label representing the symbology whose label
identifier you wish to modify.
In our example, we would scan the 'UPC-A' symbology label.
5. Identify and scan the digits that correspond to the Hex
Values.
The hex values from the ASCII chart that correspond to 'A1'
from our example are as follows: 41
31
= '1'. Thus, we would scan digit programming labels in this
hex
order: 4, 1, 3, 1.
6. Scan the END label.
In our example, you have changed the default label identifier
prefix for UPC-A from 'A' to 'A1'.

How to Set Single Character Label I.D.
If you only want a single character identifier, follow this modified procedure for setting label identifier.
1. Look at the ASCII chart shown on page 38 and identify the
ASCII character and the corresponding Hex Code for the
ASCII character you will use as the symbology specific
identifier.
2. Scan the SET label.
3. Scan the label identifier label for the symbology identifier that
you are going to change.
As an example, assume that you want to change the label
identifier for EAN-8 from the default setting FF to the ASCII
value 8. Scan the Set Symbology Specific Label Identifier
barcode for EAN-8.
5. Identify the hex value that correspond to the ASCII character.
In this example '8' equals 38
Simply follow the hex value for '8' (38

6. Scan the barcodes values.
For the example in step five, scan 3, 8, One Character Only on
the following two pages.
NOTE
If you make a mistake, or lose your place while setting this option,
scan the END label to exit Programming Mode. The scanner will
sound an error tone (six rapid beeps) to indicate that programming
was incomplete, and the setting will remain as it was before
entering Programming Mode.
7. Scan the END label.
You have changed the default label identifier for EAN-8 from
'FF' to '8'.

Symbologies
Symbology selection (bar code type) determines which symbologies the scanner will
decode. The chart below shows the symbologies that are supported by each interface.
Once you have identified the symbologies you wish to enable, turn to the following
pages, enable those symbologies and set the data format options (e.g. check digit,
start/stop characters) required by your host system for each symbology type. You
must enable the symbology format options settings that are compatible with your
host system.
The factory settings for each interface were chosen to meet the standard industry
requirements and in most cases you will not need to change the symbology format
settings. If you are unsure of your system requirements, test the scanner using the
factory settings before making any changes.

UPC/EAN Options
The information below provides a brief description of the programmable UPC/EAN
features included on the following pages.
Expand UPC-A to EAN-13 — adds a leading zero to a UPC-A label
which 'expands' the label to the EAN-13 data format. Selecting this
feature also changes the symbology ID to match those required for
EAN-13.
Expand UPC-E to UPC-A — expands UPC-E labels to UPC-A data
format. Selecting this feature also changes the symbology ID to match
those required for UPC-A.
If this feature and Expand UPC-A to EAN-13 are both enabled, label
data will be sent to the host in EAN-13 label format.
Expand EAN-8 to EAN-13 — adds five zeros in front of an EAN-8
label. Data is sent in EAN-13 data format. Selecting this feature also
changes the symbology ID to match those required for EAN-13.
Expand UPC-E to EAN-13 — expands UPC-E labels to EAN-13 data
format. Selecting this feature also changes the symbology ID to match
those required for EAN-13.
UPC-A or UPC-E and EAN-8 or EAN-13 Two and Five Digit Add-
Ons
Optional — scanner will read UPC/EAN bar codes with or without
add-ons.
Required — UPC/EAN bar codes must have add-on or label will not
be read.
Disable — scanner will not recognize/read add-on portion of UPC/
EAN labels, but will read the main body of the label.
Price/Weight Check Digit — provides options for enabling price/
weight check digits. The feature includes selections for domestic four
or five digit, and European four or five digit, as well as the option to
disable the price/weight check.

UPC/EAN Add-Ons
If you need to scan UPC or EAN labels that include add-on codes, the selections on
this page set the scanner's Add-on feature. Three add-on read modes are available:
optional, required and disabled.
Optional — the scanner will recognize UPC bar codes with or without
add-ons.
NOTE
Due to the structure of add-on codes, selecting the Optional
setting makes it impossible to ensure that the scanner will always
read the add-on portion of the label. Datalogic makes no guarantee, either written or implied, that scanners with optional add-on
decoding enabled will perform with the speed and accuracy required for any given application.
Required — the scanner will not recognize or decode any UPC/
EAN labels that do not contain an add-on segment.
Disabled — the scanner will not recognize or decode any add-
on segment of UPC/EAN labels. The scanner will read and
decode the standard UPC/EAN portion of the label.

Price/Weight Check Digit
The price/weight check digit selections allow you to specify whether the scanner
should calculate an extra check digit based on a four or five-digit price/weight block
and compare it with the price/weight check digit contained in the bar code. If the
calculated check digit does not match the value of the check digit contained in the bar
code, the label will be rejected as invalid. Select domestic four or five digit, European

The Code 39 symbology has the following programmable features:
Check Digit — calculates the Check Digit to verify that the
Check Digit contained in the bar code label is correct. If you
enable this feature, your bar codes must contain a Check
Digit.
You may also choose to transmit or not transmit the Check
Digit independent of whether the Check Digit is calculated by
the scanner. If you choose to Transmit Check Digit, but not
calculate, the scanner sends the Check Digit encoded in the
bar code without verifying its accuracy. If you choose Don't
Transmit Check Digit, the scanner will remove the Check
Digit's contents before sending the bar code data to the host.
Start/Stop Characters — you can choose either Send or Don't
Send depending on your host's interface requirement.
Code 39 Full ASCII — enables or disable the ability to decode
Code 39 Full ASCII labels.
Code 39 Minimum Label Length — sets the minimum label
length required for Code 39 labels (not including the check
character). This feature is provided to ignore small label
segments, reducing the possibility that a portion of a good
label is incorrectly seen as an entire label.

Interleaved 2 of 5
The Interleaved 2 of 5 symbology has the following programmable features:
Check Digit — calculates the Check Digit to verify that the Check
Digit contained in the bar code label is correct. If you enable
this feature, your bar codes must contain a Check Digit.
You may also choose to transmit or not transmit the Check
Digit independent of whether the Check Digit is calculated by

unless the Compute Check Digit feature is enabled. If you
choose Don’t Compute Check Digit, the scanner sends the
Check Digit encoded in the bar code without verifying its
accuracy. If you choose both Compute Check Digit and Don't
Transmit Check Digit, the scanner will remove the Check Digit's
contents before sending the bar code data to the host.
Label Format — provides the selection between fixed or variable
length labels. If your application has labels with specific fixed
lengths, we recommend selecting fixed lengths to improve read
rate and avoid short reads.
You can select any valid number of digits for reading specific
length labels only. Read the following details for specific
Interleaved 2 of 5 limits.
Interleaved 2 of 5 Label Lengths
Interleaved 2 of 5 Minimum Label Length — sets the minimum
label length required for I 2/5 labels (not including the check

segments, reducing the possibility that a portion of a good label
is incorrectly seen as an entire label.
Variable Length — if you select variable length, the scanner will
recognize labels with an even number of digits between 04 and
50 * digits.
Fixed Length — if you select fixed length, there are three labels
for programming your scanner to read either one or two fixed
lengths. The labels are:
• Set First Fixed Length — use this label to instruct the
scanner that the next two programming labels you scan will
define the first fixed label length. This setting can be any even
number of digits between 02 and 50 * digits.
* For variable length symbologies, the QS6000/6000 Plus will decode up to 50 characters, but
the actual length varies with label size and quality. The IBM POS interface is limited to 32

Codabar Options
The Codabar symbology has the following programmable features:
Check Digit — calculates the Check Digit to verify the label's
contents have been read correctly. If you enable this feature,
your bar codes must include a Check Digit. You may also
choose to transmit or not transmit the Check Digit.
Start/Stop Characters — you can choose either Send or Don't
Send depending on your host's interface requirement.
Start/Stop Format — if you need to send the Start/Stop
characters, there are four standard format options that you
can select from; ABCD/TN*E, ABCD/ABCD, abcd/tn*e, or
abcd/abcd. This setting must match your system requirements. If you select one of these options, it determines how
the ASCII characters A, B, C, D that are used for Start/Stop
characters, will be translated before being sent to the host.
Start/Stop Match — the requirement that the Start and Stop
characters must match (be identical) can be enabled or
disabled.
Label Format — provides the selection between fixed or
variable length labels. If your application has labels with
specific fixed length, we recommend selecting fixed lengths
to improve read rate.
If you select variable length, the scanner will recognize labels
with between 03 and 47 * digits (not including the optional
check digit).
Set First Fixed Length — if you select fixed length, use
this feature to set a first fixed label length to a setting between 03 and 50 * digits.
Set Second Fixed Length — if you select fixed length, use
this feature to set a second fixed label length to a setting
between 03 and 50 * digits.
No Second Fixed Length — scan this label after setting the
first fixed length to instruct the scanner to recognize only the
label length chosen as the first label length.
Gap Check — allows the scanner to combine two label halves
printed in close proximity to each other that may have been
printed at different times and perhaps different locations.
* For variable length symbologies, the QS6000/6000 Plus will decode up to 50 characters, but
the actual length varies with label size and quality. The IBM POS interface is limited to 32

General Features
The following section contains the general features that are common to all
interfaces. These features allow modification of the scanner's behavior to
accomodate user preferences.
Good Read Beeper Settings
These labels provide options for the scanner's audible 'beep' signal.
Audible Signal — enables/disables the beep upon completion of a
good read.
NOTE
It is strongly recommended that this feature remain enabled, as the
good read beep provides the best scanning status feedback to the
user. Error tones are always enabled and cannot be disabled.
Power-up Beep — when enabled, beeps upon scanner power-up.
Beeper Volume — allows setting of the beeper to NORMAL or HIGH
volume.
Good Read Beep Duration — can be adjusted to short (100msec),
medium (250msec), or long (500msec) durations.
When to Beep — may be programmed to announce a 'good read'
upon completion of one of the following events:
• Decode of a bar code's label
• Transmission from the scanner to the host
• CTS activation at the host terminal (RS-232 models ONLY)

tion of read verification "minimum read" requirements by symbology type,
as well as universally. This means that the scanner needn't waste valuable time verifying high-confidence symbologies, while offering the
security of multiple read verification on less reliable codes.
The more times the scanner is required to read and compare the
bar code's data, the longer it will take to complete a good read
cycle.
Universal Read Verification
To set read requirements universally (read requirements will be in effect
for all symbologies), scan one of the selections below for one, two, three
or four reads required before a bar code's data can be transmitted to the
host.
DO NOT scan SET or END bar codes when programming these
features. Programming mode is automatically entered and exited
when one of the four bar codes below are scanned.

Read Verification by Symbology
To set the minimum read requirement for a desired symbology:
1. Scan the SET label.
2. Scan one symbology label below to select the symbology to
be verified.
3. Scan the label on the following page representing the amount
of times you wish a bar code label of that symbology type to
be read before transmission to the host.
4. Repeat steps one through three above until read verification has
been selected for all symbologies you desire to be verified.
5. Scan the END label.

These features are only available with RS-232, Wand Emulation
and Keyboard Wedge host interfaces.
DO NOT use Very Low Power Mode in conjunction with Stand
Mode, as this feature is not compatible and may cause unexpected
behavior.
Low Power Idle — places the scanner's microcontroller into a WAIT
state during idle periods. Any interrupt will bring the scanner
to life, including internal timer and watchdog events.
Very Low Power Mode (RS-232 and Wand Emulation interfaces
ONLY1) — places the scanner in a STOP state during idle
periods. The scanner can only be brought out of its STOP state
by a trigger pull or hardware reset.

Debug Mode
When enabled, this mode will cause any product labels that are read to
be discarded with no attempt made to transmit them to a host. Any host
scanning control will also be disabled while this option is in effect. This
mode may be enabled in conjunction with any of the defined host
interfaces. All other programmable options that are set for that interface
will remain in effect while in debug mode.

Additional Information
Host Programming
Some interfaces and host systems include the ability to configure the scanner by
sending commands to the scanner. Consult your host system manual for more
infomation about this feature.
Creating MultiFunction Labels
The term 'multifunction label' describes a programming label that contains multiple
programming features in one programming label. These labels can be created with
label-making software that supports Code 128.
