Chapter 2 Preparation

2.1 Operating Environment for Use of the QK20-U

Using the QK20-U requires a host computer equipped with a USB port. The operating environment differs depending upon whether you use the USB-COM interface or USB keyboard interface as listed below. The default interface is the USB-COM interface.
USB-COM interface (factory default):
To use this interface, you need to install the dedicated Active USB-COM driver (virtual COM port driver) to the host computer. This interface allows you to use the scanner in applications using the conventional serial port. For instructions on how to set up the device driver, refer to Chapter 3, Section 3.2.1. For the interface specifications, refer to Chapter 9, Section 9.2.
USB keyboard interface:
No dedicated USB device driver is required. Via this interface, data scanned by the scanner can be entered to the cursor position in your application. For instructions on how to set up the device driver, refer to Chapter 3, Section
3.2.2. For the interface specifications, refer to Chapter 9, Section 9.3.
To use the USB-COM interface
Host computer PC/AT or AT/AT compatible PC equipped with a USB port
Operating System (OS) Windows XP Professional, x32 Edition
USB driver Active USB-COM port driver
(factory default):
Windows Vista, x32 Edition
Windows 7, x32 Edition and x64 Edition
provided by DENSO WAVE
To use the USB keyboard interface:
OS-supplied device driver
Note: The scanner cannot be used on Windows NT that does not support any USB device.
Switching between the USB-COM interface and USB keyboard interface is possible by:
- Using QR-coded parameter menu (provided in Chapter 11) or
- Using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).*
The interface setting will be retained even if the scanner is turned off. Note: For approx. 20 seconds after switching from the USB-COM interface to the USB keyboard interface, the
scanner cannot accept data entry.
* Registered users can download the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) from QBdirect, their customer
support section on the Denso Wave website at no extra charge. For further details on QBdirect or to register, visit the following URL. http://www.qbdirect.net

Page 15

3.2 QK20-U

The QK20-U receives and sends data from/to the host computer through the USB-COM interface or USB keyboard interface. You need to set up the device driver designed for the interface to be used.
Notes for connecting the USB interface cable
To use the USB-COM interface, you need to install the serial port driver to the host computer before connection of
the USB interface cable. For details, refer to Section 3.2.1.
Scanner
USB interface cable
When plugging and unplugging the USB connector, put an interval of at least 10 seconds between those actions
since Windows may take several to 10 seconds to add or delete the USB device.
When the host computer is processing the scanner connection, do not plug or unplug any other USB device cables.
Directly connect the scanner to the USB port on the host computer or to the self-powered hub. The scanner may not
be connected to some types of hubs. If the operation of the hub-connected scanner is unstable, connect it directly to
any USB port on the host computer.
Do not use any extension cord.
Do not use computer's power management features
The scanner does not support standby, sleep, resume, hibernation, and other power management features;
therefore, disable their settings before setting up the scanner.
When communication software is open on a computer, disabling a suspend state may cause some computers to
be unable to communicate. If it happens, terminate the software and reboot the computer.

3.2.1 Setting up the USB-COM interface

Using the USB-COM interface requires installing the Active USB-COM port driver provided by DENSO WAVE to the host computer. The driver does not come with the scanner in a CD-ROM. It can be downloaded for free from our website at:
http://www.qbdirect.net
The file downloaded contains the Active USB-COM port driver and uninstaller which are compressed. It is a self-extracting file. Store the file into a folder and then double-click its icon to extract it. For the latest information, refer to the manual that comes with the driver.
Notes for installing and using the Active USB-COM port driver
The driver should be installed with administrative permission (Administrator Login).
The driver does not contain a Microsoft digital signature. Therefore, do not block installation of drivers containing
no signature with the driver's signature option or local policy's security option.
The driver allows hot plugging or unplugging of a USB device even during communication (when the COM port is
being opened); however, the communications data when the USB device is disconnected will be lost.
The driver always serves as a virtual serial port even if a USB device is unplugged, so the driver always occupies a
COM port number.
The driver cannot coexist with conventional Denso USB-COM device drivers in a host computer. In the installation
procedure, the Active USB-COM port driver requires uninstalling the conventional ones.
Installing the driver on a single host computer more than one time enables more than one USB device to be used.
However, the uninstaller of the Active USB-COM port driver uninstalls previously installed drivers, not
individually but all at once.
Installation procedure
Follow the procedure shown below to install the Active USB-COM port driver. This section describes the procedure on each of Windows XP and Windows 7. On Windows Vista also, follow the wizard.
The driver installation procedure consists of two processes: installation of the serial port driver to be performed before connection of the USB device (scanner) and installation of the USB driver to be performed following connection of the USB device.
The driver installation procedure is required every time a USB device is to be connected to a difference USB port.
To use a new USB port for which the driver has not been installed, be sure to perform the driver installation procedure.
Installing the serial port driver before connection of the USB device

Chapter 4 Scanning Codes

(1) Turn ON the power to the scanner to make it ready for scanning.
(2) Bring the LCD of a mobile phone to the scanning window of the scanner as shown below. The scanner reads a code shown on the mobile's LCD, outputs the code data read, beeps the speaker, and turns the
indicator LEDs blue.
Scanning window
Indicator LEDs
Note: The scanner supports the double-read prevention function that prevents the scanner from reading in the same code more than once in succession even if you keep applying a code to the scanning window. To read the same code again after successfully read, therefore, pull the mobile away from the scanning window for at least half a second to release the double-read prevention function.
Note that if you keep applying a low-quality code that cannot be read within half a second to the scanning window, the scanner may double-read the code at intervals of half a second or longer.
Note: The double-read prevention timeout can be specified with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
Note: The scanner can read codes omnidirectionally. Note that a target code plus its margin should lie within the scan range.
Note: The scanner may fail to read depending upon the mobile model, the contrast or backlight setting, or the LCD surface conditions (e.g., sticker pasted, scratches).

Chapter 6 Scanning Control

6.1 Software Control

You can control the scanner by sending scanning control commands from the host computer via the RS-232C or USB-COM interface. (For details about control commands, refer to Appendix 2.)
Commands Description
Ready-to-scan command
R
Z
Each of these commands should be enclosed with a header and terminator for transmission according to the communications conditions of the scanner.

6.2 Auto Sensing Mode--Automatic detection of labels

In auto sensing mode (that is selected with the QR-coded parameter menu or the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D)), bringing a code label within the scan range of the scanning window turns on the illumination LEDs and starts the scanner reading the code.
The illumination LEDs come on when you bring a code label within the designated range or move a code label within the same range. These LEDs go off when a code label is moved away from the range or stays within the range without move for approx. 3 seconds.
The scanner offers a choice of three sensitivity levels for responding to codes. Switch to a higher sensitivity level if the illumination LEDs will not come on when a code is brought into the range, for example. The sensitivity level can be specified with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
Upon receipt of one of these commands, the scanner lights the illumination LEDs and becomes ready to scan.
Standby command
Upon receipt of one of these commands, the scanner turns off the illumination LEDs and switches to standby.
Note: Even if you do not bring a code label within the scan range, the illumination LEDs may come on when the
ambient level of light changes or any shadows move within the scan range.
Note: To enable the scanner to work properly in auto sensing mode, an ambient illuminance of at least 30 lx is
required.

Chapter 7 Scanning Functions

7.1 Editing Data

You can edit and output code data read, in any of the four data edit modes--"data extraction mode," "data substitution mode," "data blocksorting mode" and "ADF script mode." These data edit modes can be selected with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D). The default is "No editing."
Note: In the case of multi-line bar codes, unless all code ID marks read are matched, the data editing processing will result in an error regardless of whether or not the data read contains any error. Whether the code ID mark is matched is determined not by the combination of code ID marks but by Type 1 only (refer to Chapter 9, Section 9.4).
Note: In the case of split QR Code, the scanner in edit mode or batch edit mode performs data editing processing upon completion of scanning of all split code symbols; in non-edit mode, it performs each time a single split code symbol is read.

7.1.1 Data extraction mode

This mode offers three extraction choices--"data string," "data block" and "AI (Application Identifier)-prefixed string" extractions from code data read and then outputs it.
The "data block" extraction is available only when code data is in the comma-delimited CSV format. The "AI-prefixed string" extraction is available for GS1-128 (EAN-128), RSS (GS1 DataBar), and EAN.UCC Composite symbols (excluding linear components in a UPC/EAN Composite symbol).
7.1.1.1 Extracting a data string
The scanner extracts a data string specified by the "Extraction start position" and "Extraction end position" from a code specified by the "Code type" and then outputs it in the data transmission format selected in the scanner (see Chapter 9, Section 9.4). The extraction conditions and extraction start and end positions are listed below.
Extraction conditions
"Code type"
"Data transfer regardless of error result" Permit/Prohibit
If the scanner fails to extract a data string or scans a code not specified by "Code type" when the "Data transfer regardless of error result" is permitted, then it outputs the data read as is without editing.

7.1.1.3 Extracting AI (Application Identifier)-prefixed strings
If the scanner reads any of GS1-128 (EAN-128), RSS (GS1 DataBar), and EAN.UCC Composite symbols (excluding linear components in a UPC/EAN Composite symbol), it edits the data according to AIs and outputs it in the data transmission format selected in the scanner (see Chapter 9, Section 9.4).
The "AI-prefixed string" extraction is available in two modes--AI-delimited mode and AI parenthesizing mode. AIs to be used for data editing are listed in (3) AI table
(1) AI-delimited mode
In this mode, the scanner extracts strings prefixed with AIs specified (up to three types of AIs) and separates them with the specified delimiters (selectable from headers/terminators, commas and tabs) instead of AIs to output them.
Extraction conditions
Extraction conditions Choices
"Data transfer regardless of error result" Permit/Prohibit
If the scanner fails to extract an AI-prefixed string when the "Data transfer regardless of error result" is permitted, it outputs the data read as is without editing.
Delimiters
• Header/terminator
Specifying a header/terminator as delimiters prefixes a header and suffixes a terminator to each element string
separated.
A scanner ID, code ID mark, the number of digits, prefix, and suffix can be also added to each element string if
their transmissions are enabled. The number of digits is the count of each element string edited.

(Note 1) Element strings will be output in the order of AIs specified.
(Note 2) If data read contains two or more element strings prefixed with the same AI, those element strings will be output in
the order arranged in that data read.
(Note 3) If data read does not contain a string prefixed with the specified AI or it contains such data but its number of digits
is more or less than the one defined for that AI, an error will result when the "Data transfer regardless of error result" is prohibited.

7.1.4 ADF script mode

The ADF script refers to a simple program language designed for editing of data read. It enables the following functions.
(1) Extracting data that is fixed or variable in length
(2) Supporting Application Identifiers (AIs) in GS1-128 (EAN-128), RSS (GS1 DataBar) and EAN.UCC Composite
symbols
(3) Sorting data blocks into the specified order
(4) Collating data for verification
(5) Outputting same data repeatedly
(6) Performing four arithmetic operations including residue calculation, e.g., transformation of units
(7) Substituting data
(8) Comparing character strings
(9) Driving indicator LEDs and speaker
The ADF script mode can be programmed with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D). To configure the scanner with the ADF script, transfer the script to the scanner or generate an ADF script QR code symbol with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) and use the scanner to read the symbol.
For the specifications and instructions for use of the ADF script, refer to the ADF Script User's Guide.
Note: The ADF script mode cannot be used together with the GTIN format conversion or any of other edit modes (data extraction mode, data substitution mode, and data blocksorting mode).

7.2 Scanning a Mirror Image 2D Code

If you enable the mirror image scanning with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D), the scanner can scan a mirror image 2D code as well as a normal image. Note that when the mirror image scanning is enabled, the time required for scanning may increase.

7.3 Scanning a Black-and-white Inverted Code

The scanner usually scans a black-and-white normal code (black cells/bars on a white background). You can switch the scanner to scan a black-and-white inverted code (white cells/bars on a black background) or to scan both types of codes while automatically identifying them, using the QR-coded parameter menu or the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
Note that the automatic detection scanning may take more time than normal code or inverted code scanning.
A black-and-white inverted code requires a black quiet zone of more than the number of cells defined in the code specifications.

7.4 Scanning PDF417 Symbols at High Speed

High-speed PDF417 scanning can be enabled or disabled with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D). Enabling it shortens the scanning time of PDF417 symbols.
Note that the high-speed PDF417 scanning is possible only when PDF417 symbols lie horizontal to the scanning window of the scanner.

Page 44

7.5 Scanning Split QR (iQR) Code Symbols

QR Code symbology can split data into a maximum of 16 blocks and encode each of them into a split QR Code symbol (model 1, model 2) or iQR Code symbol. Split QR Code scanning is possible only with the same QR Code type.
The scanner can scan split QR Code symbols and restore them to the original data string in batch edit mode or non-edit mode. The mode can be selected with the QR-coded parameter menu or configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
Batch edit mode
This mode is supported by QR Code model 1 and 2 only.
If all QR Code symbols split into a maximum of four blocks lie within the readable area, the scanner reads them all once and then edits and sends them to the host computer.
Non-edit mode
Each time a single split QR Code symbol is read, the scanner sends the data read to the host computer.
When scanning split QR Code symbols, the scanner beeps in a different way from usual. That is, when the scanner reads the first split code, it beeps twice and enters the split code scanning mode. When the scanner completes the sequence of split code scanning, it beeps three times.
Note: If you scan any non-split QR (iQR) Code symbol or a code other than a QR (iQR) Code symbol midway through a sequence of split QR Code scanning, the scanner cancels the split code scanning, discards the split QR Code data already scanned, and sends the code scanned last.
Note: If the scanner switches to standby or the split code scanning interval exceeds approx. 3 seconds in the continuous scanning mode or auto sensing mode, then the scanner discards the data scanned and cancels the split code scanning sequence.
Note: If you scan a split code symbol of any other QR Code before completion of the current scanning sequence, the scanner discards the data already scanned and starts a new scanning sequence.

7.6 Multi-line Barcode Scanning

The scanner can scan up to 3 lines of bar codes in the readable area at any one time. You can specify the number of lines to be scanned, the data output order and output format using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).*

7.6.1 Number of lines

The number of lines allowed for multi-line barcode scanning is 2 or 3. This setting is essential.

7.6.2 Data output order

You can specify the data output order by designating code types* scanned*
*1 Code types should be selected from readable bar codes you enable. This setting is essential.
*
*
3
.
2
Up to two heading characters can be specified. If a question mark (?) is specified, it acts as a wild card. This setting can be omitted.
3
The number of digits to be scanned varies depending upon the code type. This setting is essential.
Note: The number of characters for Code 39 symbols should be specified including start and stop codes.

7.6.3 Output format

You can select either the header/terminator- or comma-delimited output format.
(1) Header/terminator-delimited output format
Specifying this format allows the scanner to output multiple lines of barcode data in succession in the data transmission format selected (see Section 9.4) so that the headers and terminators act as delimiters. For UPC and EAN codes, the number of digits will be omitted.
(2) Comma-delimited output format
Specifying this format allows the scanner to output multiple lines of barcode data delimited with commas in the data transmission format selected (see Section 9.4). Note that the scanner outputs the code ID mark specified for the first line barcode and the number of digits including the delimiter commas. The number of digits will not be omitted even for UPC and EAN codes.
Note 1: Bar code types specified for multi-line barcode scanning cannot be read individually. Note 2: The scanner cannot read multi-line barcodes of UPC/EAN with add-on. Note 3: If linear components in a UPC/EAN Composite symbol are specified for multi-line barcode scanning,
EAN.UCC Composite symbols including the specified linear components cannot be read.

7.7 Scanning an SQRC (Security QR Code) Symbol

, heading characters*2, or the number of digits to be
An SQRC symbol refers to a security QR Code symbol that consists of public and nonpublic data. The nonpublic data can be read only when the encryption key configured in the scanner matches the one in the SQRC symbol.
To read an SQRC symbol with the scanner, it is necessary to enable SQRC scanning ("SQRC symbols only" or "both SQRC symbols and QR Code symbols") using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D). The following SQRC related parameters can be also specified--"Data transmission after mismatch of encryption key," "Management of encryption key," and "Data transmission of nonpublic data."
Note: SQRC scanning requires configuring an encryption key beforehand with the SQRC configuration software (SQRC Setting) separately prepared.

Chapter 8 Speaker, Indicator LEDs, and Illumination LEDs

8.1 Speaker

8.1.1 Beeping at prescribed frequencies

(1) Beeping
The scanner emits a short or long beep, once or a couple of times as described below. The speaker emits a short beep when:
- the scanner has read a code successfully (Instead of this beep, audio data in Section 8.1.2 can be used as a scanning completion sound.),
- the scanner has read a split QR Code symbol,
- the "Start setting" or "End setting" code is read (3 beeps) or the parameter setting QR Code symbols are read (1 beep) from the QR-coded parameter menu (given in Chapter 11),
- the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) starts up or accepts new settings (3 beeps), or
- the scanner has read a batch-process QR Code symbol generated with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) (3 beeps).
The speaker emits a long beep when:
- the scanner has read split QR Code symbols in edit mode and the accumulated data exceeds 8 kilobytes,
- a code other than a parameter setting code is read during parameter setting by the QR-coded parameter menu,
- a transmission error or timeout occurred when the scanner was communicating with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D),
- the encryption key of data read does not match the one configured in the scanner in SQRC scanning (when the "data transmission after mismatch of encryption key" is disabled),
- a communications error has occurred, or
- an invalid control command is received.
When the scanner is turned on, the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) provides a choice of speaker ON/OFF (default: ON), but does not provide a choice of speaker tone.
You can disable the speaker using the QR-coded parameter menu or configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D)*. In any of the following cases, however, the speaker sounds regardless of that speaker setting:
- when you make settings by scanning the QR-coded parameter menu,
- when the scanner receives a speaker-ON command from the host computer,
- when the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) starts up or any setting you have made is established,
- when the scanner reads a batch-process QR Code symbol, and
- when the parameter values are saved by a PW command (refer to Appendix 2).
(2) Adjusting the speaker volume
You can adjust the speaker volume to three levels--high, medium and low--using the QR-coded parameter menu or configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D). The factory default is High.
Each time the "Speaker volume" QR Code symbol is read, the speaker volume cycles as shown below.
Even if the scanner is turned off, it retains this setting.
High
Medium Low
35
Page 47

8.1.2 Audio playback

The scanner plays back previously recorded audio data files as a scanning completion sound, using the speaker.
(1) Registering an audio data file
Up to five audio data files can be registered with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
Audio data file specifications
The table below lists the audio data file specifications supported by the scanner.
File format WAV Audio file format PCM (Linear PCM) Sampling rate 8 to 48 kHz (44.1, 22.05, or 11.025 kHz recommended) Sampling size 8 bits, 16 bits Number of channels 1 (monaural)
File size 468.75 kilobytes (max.)
Notes
- Once registered, audio data files can no longer be erased, so overwrite them with new ones.
- Audio data files out of the specifications cannot be registered.
(2) Playing back an audio data file
Using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) or control commands (IS and VOLSND in Appendix 2) to be sent from the host plays back audio data files previously registered.
Notes
- During playback of an audio data file, no code can be read.
- If the playback time of an audio data file is long, take it into consideration in system operation.
- Playback specified by a control command has priority over that by the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).
If the scanner receives two or more playback commands, the last one takes effect.
2 (stereo, the left channel is played)
(3) Adjusting the playback volume
You can adjust the playback volume to ten levels for each audio data file, using the QR-coded parameter menu, configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D), or control commands.
Notes
Depending upon the playback volume selected, the speaker may make crackling or stuttering sounds due to the installation environment.

8.2 Indicator LEDs

The indicator LEDs light or flash in blue, green or red as described below. The indicator LEDs light in blue when:
- the scanner has read a code successfully,
- the "Start setting" or "End setting" code is read from the QR-coded parameter menu (given in Chapter 11),
- the scanner starts or ends a sequence of split QR Code scanning,
- the scanner has read a split QR Code symbol, or
- the parameter values are saved by a PW command (refer to Appendix 2).
The indicator LEDs light in red when:
- the scanner has received an abnormal control command,
- the scanner has failed to edit data read,
- the scanner has read split QR Code symbols in edit mode and the accumulated data exceeds 8 kilobytes,
- the scanner has failed to save parameter values specified with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D), QR-coded parameter menu, or control commands,
- a code other than a parameter setting code is read during parameter setting by the QR-coded parameter menu,
- a transmission error or timeout occurred when the scanner was communicating with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) , or
- a run-time error has occurred in ADF script.
The indicator LEDs can be disabled with the QR-coded parameter menu or configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D). In any of the following cases, however, the indicator LEDs come on regardless of the current LED setting.
- When the scanner is being customized with the QR-coded parameter menu (Chapter 11),
- When the scanner receives an LED-ON command (ID) from the host computer (refer to Appendix 2),
- When the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) starts up or any setting is newly established,
- When the scanner reads a batch-process QR Code symbol,
- When the parameter values are saved by a PW command (refer to Appendix 2),
- When the scanner has failed to save parameter values specified with the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D), QR-coded parameter menu, or control commands, or
- When a run-time error has occurred in ADF script.

8.3 Illumination LEDs

When the scanner is ready to scan, the illumination LEDs flash.
The illumination LEDs provide the three choices--Always ON, Automatic, Always OFF by using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D).

Chapter 9 Communication

9.1 QK20-R (RS-232C Interface)

With the RS-232C interface being selected, the scanner uses asynchronous data transmission and communicates with the host computer or external equipment via the RS-232C. You can set various communications conditions using the QR-coded parameter menu or configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D). Code data read is transferred in the following format.
(1) Communications protocol
You can select either non-acknowledge mode or ACK/NAK mode.
Non-acknowledge mode (default)
If the CTS signal is at a high level (Enable transmission), the scanner transmits code data read. Note: The configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) provides CTS timeout settings from 100 ms to 9.9 s in 100-ms
increments and two CTS signal control choices Yes and No.
ACK/NAK mode
If the CTS signal is at high level (Enable transmission), the scanner transmits code data read. After that, the scanner waits for and then processes a response. If the response is an ACK, the scanner normally ends the transmission; if it is a NAK, the scanner transmits the code data again.
Note: The configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) provides CTS timeout and ACK/NAK response settings each from 100 ms to 9.9 s in 100-ms increments.
(2) RTS signal control protocol
You can select either the scanner ready mode or the data ready mode.
Scanner ready mode (default)
The RTS signal goes High and stays at a high level when the scanner is ready to communicate at power on. Make sure that the RTS signal is at a high level when transmitting a command from the host to the scanner.
Data ready mode
The RTS signal goes High before the scanner transmits data to the host and goes Low after the data transmission is completed.
Commands can be transmitted from the host to the scanner regardless of the level of the RTS signal. However, there is a short time when commands cannot be transmitted to the scanner after power has been turned on.
(3) Transmission speed
There are six transmission speeds available, ranging from 4800 bps to 115200 bps (default: 38400 bps).
(4) Characters
Characters that the scanner transfers are all ASCII codes. The frame format has the following parameters.
Data bits: 7 bits or 8 bits (default) Parity: Odd, Even, or None (default) Stop bits: 1 bit (default) or 2 bits
Note: When data contains binary data or 2-byte codes, selecting "7 bits" for the data bits transfers the 2-byte codes with the most significant bits trimmed.

This scanner is compliant with USB 1.1 (Universal Serial Bus Specification Revision 1.1).

9.2 QK20-U (USB-COM Interface)

Installing the dedicated Active USB-COM port driver to the host computer allows the USB-COM interface to operate in communications applications using the conventional serial port.
Note: Entering data transferred from the scanner via the USB-COM interface directly to applications (e.g., Access, Excel, and Internet Explorer) running on the host computer requires the keyboard interface software (QR_kbif)*. As shown below, the QR_kbif converts the data read into the keying format and passes it to applications in the manner as if it is coming from the keyboard. It is, therefore, possible for applications capable of accepting keyed data to handle the data read by the scanner.
* Registered users can download the keyboard interface software (QR_kbif), Active USB-COM driver, and the
configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) from QBdirect, their customer support section on the Denso Wave website at no extra charge. For further details on QBdirect or to register, visit the following URL.

Notes for use
• In Windows XP, if you connect the scanner to your computer first time or have changed the COM port for the scanner or hub, then confirm the COM port number on the Windows Device Manager or the like before use.
• If you want to use two or more communications processors (software) or scanners concurrently on your computer, be sure to assign a unique COM port number to each of them.
• It is not necessary to make settings such as transmission speed, data bits, parity, and stop bits (which are required for communications software using a conventional serial port) since the USB interface ignores those settings. The flow control should be set to "Hardware (RTS/CTS)" or "None."
• The virtual COM port on the computer and the scanner are connected with each other as shown below.

9.5 GTIN Format Conversion

Enabling the GTIN (Global Trade Item Number) format conversion allows UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-13, EAN-8, and Interleaved 2of5 (14-digit) data to output in the GTIN format. It also allows RSS (GS1 DataBar) and GS1-128 (EAN-128) data in the GTIN format to output in the EAN format (product code format).
Note: Under any of the following conditions, the GTIN format conversion is invalid.
- In scanning bar code types specified for multi-line barcode scanning
- In any of the data edit modes (data extraction mode, data substitution mode, data blocksorting mode, and ADF script mode)
(1) Conversion from UPC/EAN/Interleaved 2of5 (14-digit) to GTIN format
Conversion provides two choices--16- and 14-digit GTIN formats. The former adds the Application Identifier (AI) "01" and Package Indicator PI as a prefix, and the latter, a PI only.
If the GTIN format conversion is enabled, however, the output formats available for UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-13, and EAN-8 do not apply.

RSS (GS1 DataBar) or GS1-128 (EAN-128) data read in the GTIN format (16-digit with AI "01") can be converted to the EAN format if the conversion is enabled. The conversion provides two choices--13- or 14-digit EAN formats. The former trims the Application Identifier (AI) "01" and Package Indicator PI, and the latter, a PI only.

Chapter 11 QR-Coded Parameter Menu

11.1 Parameter Setting Procedure Using the QR-coded Parameter Menu

Start setting
Three beeps
Scan parameter setting
QR Code symbols.
End setting
Three beeps
Scanning the "All defaults" QR Code symbol in the QR-coded parameter menu makes all items in the menu revert to the factory defaults.

11.2 Restriction on the Use of QR-coded Parameter Menu

Using the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) or control commands (see Appendix 2) can restrict the use of the QR-coded parameter menu. When the restriction is enabled, it is impossible to change parameters with the QR-coded parameter menu or a batch-process QR code printout.
Note that using the configuration software for changing any parameter automatically disables the restriction on the use of the QR-coded parameter menu.
Use the scanner to scan the "Start setting" QR Code symbol.
Scan necessary parameter setting QR Code symbols.
Scan the "End setting" QR Code symbol.

The speaker volume can be set by scanning the following QR Code symbol only. No "Start setting" or "End setting" QR Code symbol is required to be scanned.
Adjusting the speaker volume
Scanning this QR Code symbol cycles the speaker volume through High, Medium and Low. The factory default is High.
This QR Code symbol applies only to the speaker beep. Adjusting the playback volume of audio data files requires the same operation as for other parameters (see Section 11.1).
