Wireless communication
This scanner (GT20Q-SB) is equipped with wireless facilities based on Bluetooth® wireless technology.
Item Specifications
Specifications Bluetooth® Specification Ver. 2.1+EDR standard
Radio output Class 2 (maximum 2.5 mW)
Supported profiles Serial Port Profile/Human Interface Device Profile
Communication distance
(reference value) (∗1)
(∗1) Values are for data sent through the scanner and communications adapter (BA20-RU
or BA11-RKU). Communication distance will vary depending on the device receiving
the communication and the operating environment.
Notes for using wireless communication
There may be times when communication is not possible due t o t he operating environment. Be mindful of the following
points and use the scanner in an environment where radio waves are stable.
• When using the scanner in close proximity of devic es equipped with wireless LAN capabilities using the same frequency
band as the scanner (2.4 GHz), the generated radio interference may reduce transmission speed or make transmission
impossible.
• As the scanner uses the same 2.4 GHz frequency band as devices such as microwave ovens, industrial heaters, and high
frequency medical equipment, communication may not be pos sible when near these devices.
• Electromagnetic noise from computers, refrigerators, or other home appliances may make communication impossible when
nearby.
• Communication may not be possible in the followin g locations.
Locations near metal or in which there is a lot of metallic powder
Rooms enclosed by metallic walls
Locations which receive strong vibrations
• Although the general possible communication distance under the conditions in which that distance has been measured is
approximately ten meters (unobstructed), under other conditions, even communication within ten meters may not be
possible due to the device receiving the communicati on and the operating environment.
As there are individual variances in the possible comm uni cation distances of scanners, confirm that problem-free
communication is possible before implementation.
Note: To System Designers
• Before deve l oping applications, make sure t hat the intended environment is free of the interference factors above and thus
actually capable of supporting link operation.
• If the enviromnent changes (e.g. newly installed electric equipments and movement / addition of shelves or objects), make
sure that the scanner communicates properly with all equipment again before actual use.
• Make sure that the scanner communicates properly with all equipment in the environment where other equipment using t he
2.4 GHz band is already operated or newly added to the existing system.
Approximately 10 meters or more (unobstructed)

Chapter 3 Scanning Method
3.1 Before Use
When using the scanner for the first time or when the scanner has not been used for a long period of time, always charge the
battery before use. (See Chapter 10 for charging methods.)
3.2 Operating Procedure
(1) Place the scanning window over the code, and pull the trigger switch. The markers indicating the scanning range and the
illumination light for scanning the code illuminate, and the code can be scanned.
(If the trigger switch mode is in momentary switching mode (reverse type), release the trigger switch. This operation is
not necessary if the trigger swi t ch mode is set to continuous reading modes 1 or 2, or auto sensin g mode.)
(2) Once the code has been scanned correct l y, the indicator LED will illuminate in blue, the beeper will sound and the unit
will vibrate.
Note: The scannable range indicated by the markers is only a reference, and does not guarantee that codes within this
range will be scanned.
Note: The scannable range is smaller than the area indicated by the markers.
When the scanning distance is 7.5 cm, the scannable range is approximately 6×4 cm.
Note: Unless multi-line barcode scanning is enabled, or the split QR Code scanning mode is set to “batch edit mode , ”
do not attempt to place more than one code within the scannable range. If two codes are in t he scannable range
simultaneously, the codes may not be scanned, or the scanner may scan them in alternately over and over again.
Note: The duration of double scan prevention can be set using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
Note: Codes can be scanned from any direction, but please scan the code from a position where everything including
the margins fit comfortably within the scanning field.
Note: Depending on the scanner illumination light, the room light i ng, and the label angle, the light reflected off the
label may become exceedingly strong in places, creating a specular effect that prevents code scanning. To resolve
this issue, change the angles and/or distance of the label and scanner.

-Refer to Section 7.1 for details.
Power saver -- Entering Sleep state
When the trigger switch operat ion mode is set to auto-off mode or momentary switching m ode with the trigger switch off, or
when the scanner has entered the Ready state in alternate switching mode, it will enter Sleep state in order to reduce power
consumption. (The scanner will not enter the Sleep state when i n continuous reading mode 1 or 2, or auto sensing mode.)
The scanner will enter the Sleep state after 30 s in Normal consumption mode and will enter Sleep state immediately in Low
consumption mode (default). Normal consumption mode and Low consumption mode can only be switched with the
configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
When scanning from Sleep state, the scanning speed will take approximately 100 ms longer than when scanning from the
Ready state.

Chapter 4 Parameter Settings
With this scanner, communication, code types and other parameters can be set using one of two methods, the QR-coded
parameter menu or the configuration software (ScannerSetting _2D ).* The set parameter values will be retained even after the
scanner is turned off.
Note: Scanner parameters and communications adapter paramet ers can both be stored in the mem ory of t he scanner; it is also
possible to set the communications adapter from the sc anner using Bluetooth® wireless communication. See Chapter
14 for details. There are codes for scanner setting (Section 13.2) and communications adapter setting (Section 14.2)
in the QR-coded parameter menu.
(1) Parameters can be set by pulling the trigger switch and reading the QR code for parameter setting (QR-coded parameter
menu).
(See Chapter 13 for setting the scanner and Chapter 14 for setting the communications adapter using the scanner.)
(2) Parameters can be set through the computer using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D)*. In this case, we
recommend that the scanner be set as the master device.
(It is possible to generate a batch setting QR Code with the configuration software, and set parameters by reading it with
the scanner.)
Note: Because Bluetooth® wireless communication is disconnected when the scanner is set using the configuration
software and batch setting QR code, reconnection is required once settings have been configured successfully.
However, when “Bluetooth® wi r eless communication con nection” is set to “No change” using the configuration
software, Bluetooth® wireless communication will not be disconnected.
Note: Settings cannot be configured when the scanner is in the End operation state. Be sure to switch to the Start
operation state before setting. Refer to Section 2.1 for details regarding Start ope ration and End operation.
Note: The configuration software cannot be used when HID (Human Interface Device Profile) is selected. Generate a
batch setting QR code with the configuration software and set parameters.
Note: Parameters will not be retained if the battery is low. Set the parameters after charging.
* The configuration software ( ScannerSetting_2D) can be d ownloaded from our website “QBdirect” free of charge by
registered users.

Chapter 5 Scanning Control
Scanning can be controlled through two different methods, “scanning using the trigger switch” (Section 5.1), or “scanning
using software control” (Sec tion 5. 2). “Scanning using the trigger switch” enables the user to scan by operating the trigger
switch. (Excludes continuous reading modes 1 and 2)
With “scanning using software control,” however, the trigger switch is not pulled, rather control commands for Active state,
Ready state etc. are sent from a computer or other control device. “Scanning using software control” cannot be us ed when
HID (Human Interface Device Profile) is selected.
In addition to these, auto sensing mode (includes auto stand mode) can also be used (refer t o Section 5.3).
5.1 Scanning Using the Trigger Switch
Pulling the trigger switch illuminates the illumination light and puts the scanner in the Active state. The six types of trigger
switch operation modes are as follows: Using the QR-coded parameter menu or configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D)
select the operating mode in accordance with your objective.
(1) Auto-off Mode
The scanner enters the Active state while the trigger switch is pulled. Two settings for the duration of the Active state,
“normal” and “one shot,” are available. Make a selection in the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
- Normal
The scanner automatically returns to the Ready state when scanning is successfully completed, or after approximately five
seconds have elapsed with t he trigger switch pulled.
If the trigger switch is released before five seconds have elapsed, the scanner returns to the Ready state.
- One shot
The scanner only remains in the Active state for the one shot setting duration once the trigger switch is pulled.
The one shot setting duration can be set using the c onfiguration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
(2) Momentary Switching Mode
The scanner enters the Active state only while the trigger switch is pulled, and returns to the Ready state when the trigger
switch is released.
(3) Momentary Switching Mode (Reverse type)
The scanner enters the Ready state only while the trigger switch is pulled, and ret urns to the Active state when the trigger
switch is released.
(4) Alternate Switching Mode
The scanner switches between the Active state and the Ready state every time the trigger switch is pulled.
(5) Continuous Reading Mode 1
When turned on, the scanner i l l umination light comes on and the scanner goes into the Active state. All trigger switch
functions are ignored.
The scanner enters the Ready state when it receives a “Z”, “READOFF” or “LOFF” command, and enters the Active state
when it receives an “R”, “READON” or “LON” command.
Using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D), the user can select whether to send an “ERROR” command to the host
unit when the scanner enters the Ready state after failing to complete the scan while in Active state.
11
Page 25
(6) Continuous Reading Mode 2
Similar to continuous reading mode 1.
The difference between this and continuous reading mode 1 is that the scanner enter s s t andb y s t at e w h en s canning is complete.
To return to the Active state, the scanner must first receive a “Z”, “READOFF” or “LOFF” command and enter the Ready
state, and then receive an”R”, “READON” or “LON” command.
Using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D), the user can select whether to send an “ERROR” command to the host
unit when the scanner enters the Ready state after failing to complete the scan while in Active state.
Note: The scanner will enter the auto-off mode regardless of the trigger switch settings while parameters are being set
in the QR-coded parameter menu.
Note: Trigger switch operation is only enabled after establishing a Bluetooth® wireless communication connection or
when “Wireless-disconnect scanning” has been set.

5.2 Scanning Using Software Control
Instead of pulling the trigge r switch to carry out scanning operations, these can be ca r ri ed out via communication from a
computer or other control de vi ce.
These software control commands are affected by the trigger switch operation mode as shown in the table below. (Refer to
Appendix 2: Control Comma nds for detailed control commands.)

5.3 Scanning through Automatic Label Recognition
In auto sensing mode (including auto sensing operation in auto stand mode) there is no ne ed to operate the trigger switch;
approach the scanner with the code and the illumination light comes on making scanning available. This mode is used when
the scanner is sitting in the stand and the codes are brought up to the scanner for scanning.
The illumination light comes on when the codes are brought within the scanning field, or codes within the field are moved. If
a code is removed from the scanning field or codes within the scanning field are not moved for approximately three seconds,
the illumination light will go out.
In auto stand mode, the scanner operates in auto sensing mode after the power is turned on.
If the trigger switch is pulled during auto-sensing operation, the scanner enters auto-off mode and scanning can be carried out
using trigger switch operations. Switching from auto-off mode to auto sensing mode can be done manually or automatica l l y,
and the preferred option can be selected in configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
- Manual
If the trigger switch is pulled three times within approximately one second w hi l e the scanner is operating i n auto-off mode,
the scanner switches to auto sensing mode.
- Automatic
The scanner automaticall y returns to the auto sensing mode when, after switching to auto-off Ready state, the trigger switch
is not pulled for longer than the t i me specified for the scanner to return to the auto sensing mode.
The auto sensing return timing can be set using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
Auto sensing mode and auto stand mode can be selected using the QR-coded parameter menu or configuration software
(ScannerSetting_2D).
The level of sensitivity of the scanner to the code can be set to “high,” “medium,” or “low.” For example, if the illumination
light is slow to come on when the code is brought up to the scanner, set the code sensitivity level to “high.” Select the
sensitivity level in the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
Note: Even if there is no code in the sc anning field, the illumination light may come on if the brightness of the room
changes or if shadows in the sc anning field move.
Note: Ambient illumination of 500 Lx or more is necessary for auto sensing mode to work properly.

Chapter 6 Magic Key
The magic key can be used as an a uxi l iary key for scanning or data transfer. One of the following seven functions can be
assigned to the magic key. It is also possible to select to ignore this function. Using the configuration software
(ScannerSetting_2D), select the function that best suits your needs.
(1) Scanning code switching funct ion
Toggles the scanner between two types of scanning codes selected in advance using the configuration software
(ScannerSetting_2D) every time the magic key is pressed.
Codes which were otherwise not enabled for scanning can be scanned in if specified using this function.
Furthermore, pressing the magic key five times within two seconds releases this function and enables reading of codes
other than the two selected types for a short period of time. Pressing the magic key again will reactivate this function.
(2) Data retransfer function
The scanner resends data previously sent each time the magic key is pressed.
Data sent previously will not be resent if it is cleared by turning off the power after a code is scanned.
(3) Specific character transfer function
Sends characters (max. 10 bytes) specified using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) every time the magic
key is pressed.
(4) Scanning active/ready switching function
Toggles between Ready state and Active state every time the magic key is pressed when the trigger switch operation
mode is in continuous reading mode 1 or 2.
If the error message for scan failure is enabled, the “ERROR” command is sent to the host when the scanner switches
from the Active state to the Ready state without completing a scan.
(5) Marker switching function
Toggles the marker mode be t ween Always-ON and the current set marker mode every time the magic key is pressed.
(6) Barcode reader mode switching function
Toggles the scanner between the normal read mode and the barcode reader mode every time the magic key is pressed,
regardless of whether or not the barcode reader mode is enabled (refer to Section 7.3). The barcode reader mode
overrides the point scan m ode (refer to Section 7.4) even if the point scan mode is enabl ed.
(7) Auto sensing mode switching function
Toggles the scanner between the auto sensing mode and the c ur rently selected trigger switch mode every time the
magic key is pressed.
The trigger mode cannot be changed by any command or the QR-coded parameter menu while usi ng this function.
(8) No function assigned
No function has been assigned t o the magic key. Pressing the magic key does not affect the operation of the scanner.

The magic key also has the following functions. These functions are independent of the above magic key operation function.
Master code registration
Pressing the magic key for a pproximately two seconds when in data verification mode (refer to Section 7.1) causes the
indicator LED to illuminate in green, indicating that the master code has been registered. Codes read while the magic key is
held down will become master codes.
Scan lock release
Pressing the magic key releases the Ready state set by the scan lock function (refer to Section 7.1.3) in the data verification
mode.
If the scanner enters the Ready state set by the scan lock function, the above magic key functions are ignored until the scan
lock is released by pressing the magic key.
Temporary barcode reader mode release
If the barcode reader mode (refer to Section 7.3) is selected while using the HID (Human Interface Device Profile), neither the
QR-coded parameter menu or the c onfiguration software (ScannerSetting_2D) can be used. To use the QR-coded parameter
menu or configuration softwa re in these circumstances, hold down the magic key for approximately two seconds to
temporarily release the barcode reader mode. When parameters are set using the QR-coded parameter menu or configuration
software, the temporary release will be overridden and the mode will return to the barcode reader mode.

Page 30
Bluetooth® wireless communication disconnection
After establishing a Bluetooth® wireless link, Bluetooth® wireless communication c an be disconnected by holding the magic
key for two seconds or more.
However, if the scanner is operating in data verification m ode (excluding 2-point verification), wireless communication
disconnection is disabled. In addition, when the magic key is pressed down for two seconds or more while the Bluetooth®
wireless link is being established, the Bluetooth® wireless communication processing will be suspended. The operation
following disconnection of Bluetooth® wireless communication using the magic key can be selected from the following two
types.
- Reconnection by pulling the t r igger switch
Pull the trigger switch to c onnect in master mode or slave mode (depending on which has been configured).
In master mode, the scanner connects to the slave device; in slave mode, the scanner awaits a connection from the master
device.
- Host connection standby
For first-time connections, regardless of whether the scanner is in master mode or slave mode, the scanner automatically
switches to slave mode and awaits a connection from the connecting device. The Bluetooth
parameters are the same as those when Bluetooth® wireless communication is disconnected. (Refer to Chapter 12)
For subsequent connections, i t is possible to connect to the initial device by simply pulling the scanner trigger switch after
the scanner has switched to master mode.
Note: The user can select whether the Bluetooth
®
wireless communication disconnection function is available via the
QR-coded parameter menu or the configuration software. (Refer to Chapter 12)
Forced termination of ADF scri pt
The scanner cannot scan a code if an infinite loop ADF script is running. To terminate the script, press the magic key for
approximately two seconds.

Chapter 7 Scanning Function
7.1 Data Verification Mode
When placed in data verification mode, the data of the code that has been scanned is compared with that of the master data to
verify whether they match.
Two data verification modes, “n-point verification” and “2-point verification,” are available. Make a selection in the
configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
When “n-point verification” is selected, master data is registered once and then 1:n verification is performed to verify any
codes scanned subsequently against this master data.
“2-point verification” is a 1:1 verification: once master data is registered and the scanner has compared a scanned code with
this, the scanner enters standby state awaiting new master data registration. In this way, the scanner repeatedly alternates
between master data registration and code scanning.
Master data registration methods: for “n-point verification” master data can be registered through “preset master registration”
or “master scanning registration”; for “2-point verification” registration is only available through “master scanning
registration”. With “preset master registration,” master data is registered in advance using the configuration software
(ScannerSetting_2D). For “master scanning registration,” master data is registered by scanning the master code label.
Registered master data can be outputted to the host by scanning the “master data output” code (refer to Section 7.1.3),
regardless of which of the abo ve registration methods is used.
Parameters related to verification scanning can be set using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
7.1.1 Data Verification Scanning Procedures
n-Point Verification
Preset Master Registration
Preset master registration is only available in the n-point verification mode. Register the “code type” and “the portion of data
to be verified” using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D). Up to 99 di gi t s of data can be registered.
The registered master data will be retained even after the scanner is turned off. To clear the registered data, use the
configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) and clear the master data registered i n t he host computer, and download the
newly configured data to the scanner.
Master Registration
1) Switch the sc anner to the data verification mode.
2) Press the magic key for approximately two seconds, or send the scan entry control command “E” from the host computer
to the scanner (refer to Appendix 2 for control com mands), and the indicator LED illuminates in green.
3) Scan and register the code to be used as master data. (Scan the code with the procedure for the trigger switch operation
mode selected.) The indicator LED will briefly illuminate in blue after master data is registered, and then go out.
4) Scan a code to verify. The scanner outputs the verification result after verifying the scanned data against the registered
master data. The indicator LED illuminates in blue when the scanner has scanned a code successfully.
When registering the master data, an error occurs if the data read does not meet the number of characters of the registered
verification data, such as when the number of digits is less than the specified verification starting position.
“Master scanning registration” can be carried out even if a “preset master registration” exists. In this case, the number of
digits registered in the “preset master registration” is used as the verification digit number, and the data registered in the
“master scanning registration” is used as the verification content.
Registered master data is outputted to the host when the “master data output” code (refer to Section 7.1.3) is read.
18
Page 32
Note: Control commands cannot be used when HID (Human Interface Device Profile) is selected.
Note: Registered master data will be cleared in the following instance.
・ If parameter settings are changed using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D), batch setting QR
Code, or QR-coded parameter menu.
Note: Master data can be registered an unlimited number of times while the m agic key is pressed and the indic ator LED
is illuminated in green. The last code to be scanned is the master data.
Note: If master data registration using “preset master registration” or “master scanning registration” fails, the
indicator LED will flash in red. Code scanning is not available while the light is flashing.
2-Point Verification
Master Registration
1) Switch the sc anner to the data verification mode. The indicator LED i l l uminates in green.
2) Scan and register the code to be used as master data. (Scan the code with the procedure for the trigger switch operation
mode selected.) The indicator LED will briefly illuminate in blue after master data is registered, and then go out.
3) Scan a code to verify. The scanner outputs the verification result after verifying the scanned data against the registered
master data.
When the scanner has scanned a code successfully, the indicator LED illuminates in blue before changing to green
indicating that it is in standby state awaiting new master data registration.
When registering the master data, an error occurs if the data read does not meet the number of characters of the registered
verification data, such as when the number of digits is less than the specified verification starting position. If an error occurs,
the scanner will return to the master data registration standby state.
* “Reverification attempt after NG judgment” in 2-point verificat i o n
2-point verification is provided with a “Reverification attempt after NG judgment” functi on to attempt reverification against
the same master data if the result of the data verification is a mismatch (NG judgment). If the reverification attempt function is
enabled using the configuration software (ScannerSet t ing_2D), the scanner will remain in code scanning standby s t ate until
verification succeeds. When this function is disabled (default), the scanner will return to the master data registration standby
state after a single scan, regardless of the verification result.
Note: Registered master data will be cleared in the following instance.
- When the scanner is turned off
- When the verification starting position or verification digit numbers change
- If parameter settings are changed using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D), batch setting QR Code
or QR-coded parameter menu
Note: When an NG judgment is received after data verification, the user can select whether to implement the verification
process once more via the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
Note: The verification range can be set to either “code type + code data” or “code data only” in the configuration
software (ScannerSetting_2D).

7.1.2 Designating Targets for Data Verification
When designating a data verification target, “data string” or “data block” can be selected. “Data string” refers to a data area
specified by the verification start position and the number of verification digits. “Data block” refers to a CSV formatted data
block separated by commas.
(1) Data String Verification
The scanner compares data specified by the verification start position and the number of verification digits with the master
data registered in the scanner, and then outputs the result.
The verification start posi t ion can be set from 1 to 999, and t he number of verification digits can be set from 1 to 99*.
(*The scanning digit numbers for Code 39, Codabar (NW-7) must be set and include the start-stop code.)
A mismatch occurs in the following instances:
1) The data in the specified area does not match the master data.
2) The code types do not match the master data (refer to the notes below).
3) There is missing data or no data in the specified area.
Example:
Master

(2) Data Block Verification
The scanner compares the CSV formatted data block separated by commas with the registered master data, and then outputs
the result.
The verification data block position can be set from 1 to 99.
A mismatch occurs in the following instances:
1) The data in the specified block does not match the master data.
2) The code types do not match the master data (refer to the notes below).
3) There is missing data or no data in the specified block.
4) The number of digits in the block for verification exceeds 99.
Example:

(3) Scan Lock Release
The scan lock is a function used to lock the scanner in the Ready state if a mismatch occurs. Select using the configuration
software (ScannerSetting_2D).
Once the scanner enters this state, the scanner stays in the Ready state regardless of trigger switch control, and ignores any
subsequent trigger switch pulls and commands to enable Active state (R, READON, LON).
To release the scan lock, press the magic key or turn off the scanner.

7.2 Data Edit Mode
The scanned code data can be edited and output in the following modes: “Data extraction mode,” “data conversion mode,”
“block sorting mode,” and “ADF script mode”. These data editing modes can be set using the configuration software
(ScannerSetting_2D). The default mode is “non-edit mode”.
Note: If the scanning code is a multi-line barcode, the code type for all lines must match or the scanner will
register a data editing processing error, regardless of whether or not there is an error in the scanned data.
Only Type 1 code type verification assessment is carried out, regardless of the code mark type setting.
(Refer to Section 9.4 (5))
Note: The scanner edits split QR or iQR Codes after all the split codes are completely scanned in the edit mode or
batch edit mode. The scanner edits split codes on an individual bases each time a split code is scanned in
the non-edit mode.
7.2.1 Data Extraction Mode
The scanner extracts a portion of the scanned data for output. Three types of data extraction modes are available: “Data string
extraction mode,” “data bl ock extraction mode,” and “AI ( Application Identifier) extraction mode”. “Data block extraction
mode” can be utilized with CSV formatted data block separated by commas. “AI extraction” can be utilized w i t h GS1-128,
GS1 DataBar, GS1 Composite (excludes linear components of UPC/EAN Composite).

7.2.1.3 AI (Application Identifier) Extraction
When the scanned code is a GS1-128, GS1 DataBar, or GS1 Composi t e (excludes linear components of UPC/EAN
Composite) code, the scanner edits the data using AI (Application Identifier) and outputs scanned data in the data
transmission format (refer to Section 9.4) selected in the scanner in accordance with the specified parameters.
Two types of AI extraction are available: AI delimited mode and AI parenthesis mode. For the AI used in data editing, refer to
(3) AI Table that follows below.
(1) AI Delimited Mode
The scanner extracts the data using the specified AI (maximum of three types) and replaces the AI with specified delimiters
(selected from three types: header/terminator, comma, tab) for output.
Parameters
When “Transmit data regardless of t he results” is enabled, the sca nned data will be output without e di t ing if AI extraction
fails.
Delimiters
Header/Terminator
The scanner adds headers and terminators to each split string and outputs the data.
The scanner ID, code mark, number of digits, prefix and suffix are added to each split data if enabled for output.
The total number of digits output will be the number of digits post edit.
The scanner outputs split strings delimited by commas. No comma is added to the last item of split data.
A header and terminator are added to each item of split data. The scanner ID, code mark, number of digits, prefix and
suffix are not output, regardless of whether output is enabled or disabled.
Example: Scanned data: “(01)94901234567894(11)030808(13)030810” Header: STX, Terminator: ETX, Scanner ID:
Prohibited, Code mark: Disabled, The number of digits: Di sabled, Prefix/Suffix tra ns mission: Not specified, BCC
transmission: Disabled

01,11,13 [STX]94901234567894,030808,030810[ETX]
Tab (ASCII code 09H<HT>)
The scanner outputs split strings de limited by tabs. No tab is added to the last item of split data.
A header and terminator are added to each item of split dat a. The scanner ID, code mark, number of digits, prefix and
suffix are not output, regardless of whether output is enabled or disabled.
Example: Scanned data: “(01)94901234567894(11)030808(13)030810” Header: STX, Terminator: ETX, Scanner ID:

7.2.4 ADF Script Mode
ADF script is a simple programming language used to edit scanned data. The main functions of ADF script are listed below.
(1) Fixed/variable length data extraction
(2) GS1-128, GS1 DataBar, GS1 Composite AI (Application Identifier) compatibility
(3) Sorting disordered data into the prescribed order
(4) Data verification
(5) Repeated output of the same data
(6) Four basic arithmetic operations including remainder calculation such as unit conversion
(7) Data conversion (substitution)
(8) Character string comparison
(9) Control of the indicator LED, beeper, and vibrator
Use the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) to create an ADF script. Set up the ADF script on the scanner using the
configuration software or by scanning a configuration Q R Code created to set up the ADF script.
Refer to the “ADF Script User's Guide” for details of ADF script specifications and usage method.
Note: ADF scripts cannot be used in conjunction with GTIN conversion or data editing modes (data extraction
mode, data conversion mode, or block sorting mode).

Scannable range when in standard reader mode
Scannable range when in barcode reader mode
(shaded area)
7.3 Barcode Reader Mode
In barcode reader mode, the scannable range on the longitudinal scale is limited to the central 15% shown in the figure below,
with a skew angle diameter of 5°≧θ≧-5°.
Less time is therefore required for barcode scanning than standard reader mode.
2-D codes and multi-line barcodes cannot be scanned in this mode, even if scanning of these codes is enabled. Also, the point
scan mode (refer to Section 7.4) cannot be enabled while the scanne r i s i n t his mode. If both modes are enabled, the mode
most recently enabled will be activated.
If the barcode reader mode is selected while using the HID (Human Interface Device Profile), neither the QR-coded parameter
menu nor the configuration s of t ware can be used. Hold down the magic key for approximatel y two seconds to temporarily
release the barcode reader mode. (Refer to Chapter 6)
7.4 Point Scan Mode
The scanner scans a code by aiming at a code under the intersection of the cross at the center of the marker. The code will not
be scanned if there is no code under the intersection of the cross or if the scanner cannot detect the marker due to external
light etc. Also, this mode i s available only when marker illumination is enabled.
7.5 Mirror Image Code Scanning
The scanner can scan both standard and mirror image 2D codes. Use the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) to
enable or disable the mirror image code scanning. 2D code scanning may take longer if the mirror image code scanning is
enabled.
7.6 Black-and-white Inverted Code Scanning
The scanner can scan black-and-white inverted 2D codes or barcodes. Use the QR-coded parameter menu or the configuration
software (ScannerSetting_2D) to switch between norm al code scanning, black-and-white inverted code scanning, or
normal/inverted code aut o detect scanning.
Auto detect scanning may take longer than normal code sca nni ng or black-and-white inverted code scanning.
A black-and-white inverted code requires a black level margin equal to or exceeding the standard QR Code margin around the
code symbol.
38
Page 52
7.7 Split QR Code Scanning
With QR Code models 1 and 2, and iQR Codes, the data can be split into a maximum of 16 codes for pr ocessing as individual
split codes. Split codes can only be scanned by the same model.
For split code scanning, use t he QR-coded parameter menu or configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) to select either
“edit mode,” “batch edit mode,” or “non-edit mode”.
Edit Mode
Scanned split codes are stored and edited by the scanner be fore being sent to the host comput er. If the amount of data exc eeds
8KB, a scanning error occurs and the stored data is cleared.
Batch Edit Mode (QR Code Models 1 and 2 Only)
If all of the split codes (divided into a maximum of four) fit w i t hin the scanning field of the scanner, they will be scanned in a
single pass, edited and sent to the host computer.
Non-edit Mode
Data is sent to the host computer each t i me an individual split code is scanned.
The beeper sounds twice when split code scanning commences (scanning of the initial split code completes), and three times
when split code scanning is complete (scanning of all code s is complete).
Note: If the scanner scans a QR (iQR ) code that is not split or a code other t han a QR (iQR) code while operating in
split code scanning mode, split code scanning will be terminated, any split codes mid-scan will be discarded, and
the code scanned most recent l y will be sent to the host compute r.
Note: Scanned data is cleared and spli t code scanning is terminated if the scanner goes into Ready state in auto-off
mode (five seconds have elapsed with the trigger switch pulled, or the trigger switch is released within five
seconds), or if scanning of a su bs equent code is not complete within approximately three seconds in any other
mode.
Note: If another split code is scanned before previous split code scanning completes, data scanned previously is cleared,
and scanning of the new split code commences.

Page 53
7.8 Multi-line Barcode Scanning
The scanner is capable of scanning up to three lines of barcode s within its scanning field at a single time.
Use the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) to specify the number of lines, data output order, and output format of
the multi-line barcode to be scanned.
7.8.1 Number of Lines
Set the number of lines to two or three. The number of lines must be specified.
7.8.2 Data Output Order
Set the code type, character strings, and the number of code digits to determine the output order of a scanned barcode.
Note: Select the code type from those barcodes that are enabled. Thi s step cannot be omitted.
Note: For the character strings, specify the first one or two characters of data. A question mark “?” is treated as a wild
card. This step can be omitted.
Note: The number of code digits that can be set differs depending on the code type. This step cannot be omitted.
The scanning digit numbers fo r Codabar (NW-7), Code 39 must be set and include the start-stop code.
7.8.3 Output Format
Select either the header/terminator-delimited format or the comma-delimited format as the output format.
(1) Header/Terminator
Data is output line by line in accordance with the specified data transmission format (refer to Section 9.4). The number of
digits will be omitted for the UPC and EAN codes.
(2) Comma
Data is output separated by commas in accordance with the specified data transmission format (refer to Section 9.4). Only the
code mark set for the first line i s output and the number of digits i ncludes commas. The number of digits is not omitted for
UPC and EAN codes in comma-delimited formats.
Note: Barcodes specified for multi-line barcode scanning cannot be scanned individually.
Note: Multi-line barcodes with U PC/EAN add-on cannot be scanned.
Note: GS1 composite codes t hat contain linear components cannot be scanned if the linear component data is specified
for multi-line barcode scanning.
Note: EAN/UPC composite codes that contain linear components cannot be scanned if the l i near component data is
specified for multi-line barcode scanning.
7.9 SQRC Scanning
SQRC are QR Codes with scanning restrictions. These SQR C are composed of disclosed and u ndisclosed data Scanning of
the undisclosed component is only possible if the encryption key set in the scanner matches that in the SQRC.
To enable scanning of SQRC, use the configuration softwar e (ScannerSetting_2D) to set the scanner to “enable scanning of
SQRC only,” or “enable sca nni ng of SQRC and QR Codes”.
Note: An encryption key is necessary for SQRC scanning. In order to set encryption keys, dedicated SQRC scan setting

9.6 Data Packing (data packetizing)
Data packing (data packetizing) is used when the user wants to increase the reliability of wireless communication.
With data packing, data being sent via wireless communication is first converted to the following formats (packetized) before
being sent. After sending one packet, the scanner waits for a response (ACK/NAK) from the communications adapter (BA
series), commercial Bluetooth device, or other device. In the case of an ACK response, the operation completes normally; in
the case of a NAK response, the data is resent.
Using the configuration software (Sc annerSetting_2D), the user can set ACK/NAK response confirmation timing to a figure
between 100 ms and 9900 ms (at interva ls of 100 ms).
If there is no ACK or NAK response within the ACK/NAK response confirmation timing, the scanner will sound the error
beeper to indicate that the data has not been sent successfully. The scanne r cannot scan codes while waiting for a respo nse
during the ACK/NAK response confirm ation timing.
These functions allow the user to confir m whether the scanned data has been se nt to the host successfully, even while working
in a location separated from the host. However, a characteristic of wireless communication is that there are instances when the
scanner cannot confirm the ACK or NAK response even when data has been sent to the host successfully. Use the scanner in
an environment that allows stable wireless communication.
There are two methods of data packing: “data packing (host)” and “data packing (BA)”.
Note: The data packing function cannot be used when HID (Human Interface Device Profile) is selected.
Data packing (host)
Used when communicating via a commercial Bluetooth device etc. Program the host so that received data can be confirmed
and a response can be sent to the scanner.
The scanner converts scanned barcode data to the following formats (packetizing) and sends it to the host.
- Transmission format
Header
DLE STX
Data length
Each item is described as follows:
(1) Header (2 bytes)
Packet start data.
(2) Data length (2 bytes)
The length of data in packetized data between the header and the terminator.
(3) Container number (1 byte)
Upper 4-bit: transmission number, Lower 4-bit: All transmission numbers
(4) Reserve (1 byte)
Space reserved for extension. Value fixed at 00h.
(5) Transmission data
Data before packetizing.
(6) CRC (2 bytes)
16-bit CRC. The result of calculating data from data length to transmission data in LSB first format using the CRC-CCITT
method (polynomial X16+X12+X 5+1). Stored in a lower half, upper half byte order.

Note: If the DLE (10h) is included in data other than the header or terminator, the DLE is a ppl i ed to the front of the
header before the data is transferred. When performing data packing (data packetizing) using a device other than
the communications adapter, the applied DLE must be deleted by CRC calculation and retrieving the transferred
data.
(1) Confirm data length.
Data length stored in received data = 0011h = 17 bytes
Data length of received data = 17 bytes
(2) Confirm CRC.
1) Set CRC value to 0.
2) Retrieve the first data byte (00h).
3) Shift CRC value 1 bit to the left.
4) Shift the retrieved data 1 bi t to the left.
5) Repeat the calculations in 3) and 4) 8 times.
6) Retrieve the second data byte (13h).
7) Repeat the calculations in 3) and 4) 8 times.
8) Repeat this calculation up t o the final byte.
9) Finally, perform the same calculation on 2 byte CRC storage area (A3h C6h).
Data length
When there are too many digits due to the shift, XOR the 1021h at the CRC value.
When there are too many digits due to the shift, XOR the 0001h at the CRC value.

Chapter 11 Image Capture Function
11.1 Function Outline
The GT20Q-SB scanner is equipped with an image capture function. Scanned images can be outp ut in either BMP (bitmap
file) format or as a JPEG (standard, high, or low quality).
Image size can be selected fr om Standard WVGA, 1/4 WVGA and 1/16 WVGA. When 1/4 WVGA or 1/16 WVGA is
selected, users can select whether to enlarge the image to fit the screen, or to extract the center portion of the full screen
(1/1WVGA).
When “enlarge the image to fit the screen” is selected, the visual field becomes wider, but at the cost of image quality
deterioration. When “extract the center portion of the full screen (1/1 WVGA)” is selected, the visual field becomes narrower,
but the quality of the image does not deteriorate.
An image transfer function a l l ows the image to be made into a t humbnail for ease of selection. Thumbnail size can be selec t ed
from 1/64 WVGA in bitmap format and 1/4 WVGA in JPEG format.
Parameters such as output format, image size, image format, and whether to create thumbnails can be changed via the image
output settings command [IMAGEOUT].
Note: The image capture function cannot be used when HID (Human Interface Device Profile) is selected.

J or J0 JPEG format (standard)
J2 JPEG format (low q uality)
M: Image Size
0 Standard WVGA
4 1/16 WVGA
N: Image Output Area
F Full screen
O: Whether to use a thumbna i l
None or 1 1/64 WVGA BMP thumbnail
2 1/4 WVGA JPEG thumbnail
(5) Operation
1. When the scanner receives the IMAGEOUT command, it captures the image and the beeper sounds three times. The
scanner then enters image t r ansmission mode (Xmodem 1K Prot ocol).
2. “When thumbnail transmission is enabled”
Thumbnails (1/64 WVGA BMP files, 1/4 WVGA JPEG files) are repeatedly transmitted.
When the trigger switch is pulled, the scanner captur es the image and begins ima ge transmission (Xmodem 1K Protocol).
(The beeper sounds once when the trigger switch is pulled.)
“When thumbnail transmission is disabled”
The scanner immediately captures the image and be gi ns t r ansmission (Xmodem 1K Prot ocol) based on the set
parameters.
3. Once image transmission is completed, the beeper sounds once and the scanner returns from image transmission mode to
normal operation mode.

(6) Note:
- Only control commands can be used to enable image transmission. There is no setting to initiate it in the QR Menu.
- During image transmission mode, scanning of barcodes or 2D codes, etc. is disabled. Further, the protocol is fixed a s
Xmodem 1K.
- When setting the command parameters, use uppercase or numeric ASCII characters.
- Communications condition settings such as the command header, terminator, transmission speed, etc. are the same as those
of normal commands.
- Transmission conditions whe n in the Xmodem 1K Protocol are the same as during normal operat i on mode
(non-acknowledge mode or ACK/NAK).
- Once image transmission is completed, the transmission protocol will return to normal operation mode (non-acknowledge
mode or ACK/NAK).
- As the image is compressed during conversion to JPEG format, image quality may deteriorate.
(7) Image Transmission Time (Standard Value)
The communications adapter (BA11-RKU or BA20-RU) interface uses RS-232. Communications condition displays the
standard speed of image captur e, conversion, and transmission when the protocol is Xmodem 1K and the transmission speed
is 115200 bps. As a result, transmission time will change due to the condition of Bluetooth® radio waves, host settings, etc.
Image type Output format Image file size Transmission time
Standard WVGA BMP 353 KB 76 s
1 / 4 WVGA BMP 89.2 KB 20 s
1 / 16 WVGA BMP 23.1 KB 5.3 s
Thumbnail (1/64 WVGA) BMP 6 KB 2.1 s
Thumbnail (1/4 WVGA) JPEG 4.8 KB 2.0 s
Standard WVGA JPEG 25 KB * 8.3 s
* As the image will undergo compression and conversion when JPEG format is selected, t he file size will change
depending on the photo image (approx. 10-40KB, typically around 25 KB) The compression rate cannot be set.
