Introduction

Your new scanner has been factory configured with a set of default
parameters. Since many host systems have unique formats and protocol
requirements, GoDEX provides a wide range of configurable features that
may be selected using this bar code based configuration tool. Once the
configuration is completed, the scanner stores the settings in nonvolatile
memory (NOVRAM). NOVRAM saves the settings when the power is off.

Note: Bar code descriptions marked with an asterisk ( * ) define a feature that

is a factory default. Bar codes marked with a tilde ( ~ ) require the
Multi-Code configuration method.

Bar Code Configuration Methods

The GS220 scanner can be bar code configured in two ways: the Single-Code
Method and the Multi-Code Method.

Single-Code Method

Most features can be enabled or disabled using the Single-Code Method.

1. Power-up the scanner.

2. Scan the bar code for the desired feature.

3. The scanner will emit a multi-toned beep to indicate the configuration
has been saved to NOVRAM.

Multi-Code Method

All features can be enabled or disabled using the Multi-Code Method.
A feature marked with a tilde ( ~ ) requires the Multi-Code Method.

1. Power-up the scanner.

2. Scan the enter/exit configuration mode bar code (3 beeps).

3. Scan the bar code for the desired feature (1 beep). Multiple features
can be enabled/disabled before scanning the enter/exit
mode bar code.

4. Scan the enter/exit configuration mode bar code (3 beeps) and save
the new configuration. To abort a configuration change, power off the
scanner before scanning the enter/exit code.

Need To Start Over?

Scan the Recall Defaults bar code to erase all previous settings and return
the scanner to its factory default communication protocol. Keyboard Wedge

The following example demonstrates how to configure the User-Defined ISBT

Assume the left-hand identifiers are the ISBT defined donation

specific identifiers “&a”.

1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT configuration mode bar code.

2. Scan the 1

3. Scan (Code Byte 0) + (Code Byte 6) + (Code Byte 1).

4. Scan the 2nd Left Identifier configuration mode bar code.

5. Scan (Code Byte 0) + (Code Byte 7) + (Code Byte 1).

6. Scan the 1st Right Identifier configuration mode bar code.

7. Scan (Code Byte 0) + (Code Byte 3) + (Code Byte 8).

8. Scan the 2nd Right Identifier configuration mode bar code.

9. Scan (Code Byte 0) + (Code Byte 9) + (Code Byte 7).

10. Scan the Enable User-Defined Sequence bar Code.

12. Scan the ENTER/EXIT configuration mode bar code.

The scanner is now configured with the appropriate identifiers. Since both
ISBT and User-defined Concatenation are enabled, ISBT 128 bar codes
scanned successively that contain these identifiers will be concatenated.

An alternate method of the type found in section 4.8.1 of the ISBT
specifications can be used for configuring user-defined concatenation
sequences. Using the previous example, the identifiers can be configured into
a single configuration mode bar code. The following bar codes can be used to
enable and disable the user-defined concatenation.

st

Left Identifier configuration mode bar code.

Enable (Left, =G) + (Right, &a)

=&³=G&a505d1

Disable (Left, =G) + (Right, &a)

=&³=G&a505d0

Note: These configuration bar codes require Single-Code configuration mode.

These bar codes are not recognized in Multi-Code configuration mode.

Two forms of concatenation can be enabled at any given time, one pre-defined
sequence and the user-defined sequence. Code selects and ISBT Code-128
concatenation cannot be used simultaneously. Both functions use the same
internal resources so they must remain mutually exclusive.

Longitudinal Redundancy Check

A Longitudinal Redundancy Check (LRC) is an error checking character that is
calculated across a sequence of data characters. It is determined by eXclusive
ORing (XOR) the characters to be checked, starting with an initial value of
00H.

The result, an “LRC byte” is then transmitted following the data stream and
used by the receiving computer to determine if the information was received
correctly. In the scanner’s case, XOR is performed prior to adding parity bits.

When the LRC is enabled, the scanner defaults to starting the LRC on the
second byte of information transmitted. Optionally, the calculation can start on
the first byte transmitted.

Control Sets

In general, standard bar code symbologies will only encode the ASCII
character set. Function keys, arrow keys and many other extended keys on an
IBM compatible keyboard do not translate to ASCII characters. One method of
‘bar coding’ the extended keys is to substitute the extended key codes when a
specific ASCII control character is found in the bar code stream. The Control
Sets are specific translations of the ASCII (HEX) set.

Code Bytes Usage

The scanner must be in Configuration Mode for the features requiring code
bytes for configuration. The Enter/Exit Configuration Mode bar code must be
scanned before starting the configuration cycle. User configurable prefix/suffix
characters can then be saved by scanning the 3 digit decimal equivalent of the
ASCII character into the appropriate character location with the code byte bar
codes.

Example: To add an Asterisk (*) as a Prefix, scan the bar codes.

1. Enter/Exit Configuration Mode (3 beeps)

2. Configurable Prefix #1 (1 beep)

3. Code Byte 0 (1 beep)

4. Code Byte 4 (2 beeps)

5. Code Byte 2 (3 beeps)
