Connecting the Scanner in Keyboard Wedge Mode
A scanner can be connected between the keyboard and PC as a “keyboard
wedge,” plugged into the serial port, or connected to a portable data terminal in
non decoded output mode.
Note: Note: The IMAGETEAM 4410 and 4710 scanners are factory
programmed for a keyboard wedge interface to an IBM PC AT with a USA
keyboard.
The following is an example of a keyboard wedge connection:
1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer.
2. Disconnect the keyboard cable from
the back of the terminal/computer.

appropriate interface
cable to the scanner

5. Turn the terminal/

The scanner is now connected and ready to communicate with your terminal/PC.
You must program the scanner for your interface before bar code data can be
transmitted to your terminal/PC. If you are using the scanner as a keyboard
wedge, see"Terminal Interface" on page 2-4. If the scanner is connected via a
serial port, turn to "Connecting the Scanner to a Serial Port" on page 1-7.

Reading Techniques
The hand-held Imager has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam
that corresponds to the Imager’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam
should be centered over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for
a good read.
Linear bar code2D Matrix symbol
The aiming beam is smaller when the Imager is closer to the code and larger
when it is farther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil
size) should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements
(mil size) should be read farther from the unit. (see "Depth of Field Charts" on
page 10-4.) To read single or multiple symbols (on a page or on an object), hold
the Imager at an appropriate distance from the target, pull the trigger, and center
the aiming beam on the symbol.

All operating parameters are stored in nonvolatile memory resident in the
Imager, where they are permanently retained in the event of a power interruption.
When you receive your Imager, certain operating parameters have already been
set. These are the factory defaults, indicated by the symbol “✱” on the
programming menu pages (beneath the default programming symbol). Default

Terminal Interface
IMAGETEAM 4410 and IMAGETEAM 4710 scanners are factory programmed
for a keyboard wedge interface to an IBM PC AT with a USA keyboard. If this is
your interface and you do not need to modify the settings, skip to "Power Saving
Mode" on page 2-16 to begin programming the scanner.
If your interface is not a standard PC AT, refer to the "Supported Terminals
Chart" on page 2-5 and locate the Terminal ID number for your PC. Scan the
Terminal ID bar code below, then scan the numeric bar code(s) on the inside
back cover of this manual to program the scanner for your terminal ID> Scan
Save to save your selection.
For example, an IBM PS/2 terminal has a Terminal ID of 002. You would scan
the Terminal ID bar code, then 0, 0, 2 from the inside back cover, then Save. If
you make an error while scanning the digits (before scanning Save), scan the
Discard code on the back cover and scan the digits and the Save code again.
Note: Factory Default for Keyboard Wedge units = 003
Note: Factory Default for True RS-232 units = 000
Scan the Program Keyboard Country bar code below, then scan the numeric
bar code(s) from the inside back cover, then the Save bar code to program the
keyboard for your country. As a general rule, the following characters are not
