Getting Started

About This Manual

This User’s Guide provides installation and programming instructions for the
4000 Series imagers. Product specifications, dimensions, warranty, and cus­tomer support information are also included.

Honeywell barcode imagers are factory programmed for the most common ter­minal and communications settings. If you need to change these settings, pro­gramming is accomplished by scanning the barcodes in this guide.

An asterisk (*) next to an option indicates the default setting.

Unpacking the Imager

After you open the shipping carton, take the following steps:

• Check for damage during shipment. Report damage immediately to the
carrier who delivered the carton.

• Make sure the items in the carton match your order.

• Save the shipping container for later storage or shipping.

Connecting the Imager with Keyboard Wedge

Note: See "Imager Models" on page 1-2 to determine which interfaces apply to

your imager.

An imager 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
wand emulation or non decoded output mode. 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.

3. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the imager and to the terminal/
computer.

4. Turn the terminal/computer power back on. The imager beeps.

5. Program the imager for a keyboard wedge interface using the Plug and Play
barcodes beginning on page 1-8.

6. Verify the imager operation by scanning a barcode from the Sample

Symbols in the back of this manual. The imager beeps once.

Your imager is 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 Chapter 3 - Output.

1 - 4

Connecting the Imager with USB

Note: See "Imager Models" on page 1-2 to determine which interfaces apply to

your imager.

An imager can be connected to the USB port of a computer.

1. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the imager first, then to the com­puter.

2. Program the imager for a USB interface using the Plug and Play barcodes

beginning on page 1-9.

3. The imager beeps.

4. Verify the imager operation by scanning a barcode from the Sample

Symbols in the back of this manual.

For additional USB programming and technical information, refer to “USB Appli­cation Note,” available at www.honeywell.com/aidc.

1 - 5

Connecting the Imager with RS-232 Serial Port

Note: See "Imager Models" on page 1-2 to determine which interfaces apply to

your imager.

1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer.

2. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the imager.

Note: For the imager to work properly, you must have the correct cable for your

type of terminal/computer.

3. Plug the serial connector into the serial port on your computer. Tighten the
two screws to secure the connector to the port.

4. Plug the power supply into the cable.

5. Once the imager has been fully connected, power up the computer.

6. Program the imager for an RS-232 Serial Port interface using the Plug and
Play barcode on page 1-11.

Connecting the Imager with RS-232 Wedge

Note: See "Imager Models" on page 1-2 to determine which interfaces apply to

your imager.

Your imager uses True and TTL signal levels to wedge into an RS-232 serial
network. Use only serial wedge cables to prevent damage to the imager. Refer
to RS-232 Baud Rate on page 2-10 to set the baud rate and communications
protocol.

1. Turn off power to the computer.

2. Disconnect the existing serial cable from the computer.

3. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the imager.

Note: For the imager to work properly, you must have the correct cable for your

type of computer.

Host

Terminal

4. Plug the serial connector into the serial port on your computer. Tighten the
two screws to secure the connector to the port.

5. Plug the other serial connector into the host connection and tighten the two
screws.

6. Plug the power pack cable into the receptor on the imager cable.

7. Plug the power pack into a power source.

8. Once the imager has been fully connected, power up the computer.

9. To set up the serial wedge terminal ID, use the serial terminal ID 050 and
follow the instructions on page 2-1.

10. Program the port for data transmission using the barcodes on page 1-12.

Scanning this code changes the terminal ID to 131.

USB COM Port Emulation

Scan the following code to program the imager to emulate a regular RS-232­based COM port. If you are using a Microsoft® Windows® PC, you will need to
download a driver from the Honeywell website (www.honeywell.com/aidc
driver will use the next available COM port number. Apple® Macintosh comput­ers recognize the imager as a USB CDC class device and automatically use a

Wand Emulation Connection

Note: See "Imager Models" on page 1-2 to determine which interfaces apply to

your imager.

In Wand Emulation mode, the imager decodes the barcode then sends data in
the same format as a wand imager. The Code 39 Format converts all symbolo­gies to Code 39.

The Same Code Format transmits UPC, EAN, Code 128, Codabar, and Inter­leaved 2 of 5 without any changes, but converts all other symbologies to Code

39. 2D symbologies are converted to Code 128.

Reading Techniques

The imager has a view finder that projects a bright red or green aiming beam
that corresponds to the imager’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam
should be centered over the barcode, but it can be positioned in any direction
for a good
read.

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. To read single or multiple
symbols (on a page or on an object), hold the imager at an appropriate distance
