This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television technician for help.

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.
Hand Held Products bar code 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 bar codes 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 bar codes beginning on page 1-8.
6. Verify the imager operation by scanning a bar code 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.

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 bar codes
beginning on page 1-9.
3. The imager beeps.
4. Verify the imager operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample
Symbols in the back of this manual.
For additional USB programming and technical information, refer to Hand Held Products “USB Application Note,” available at www.handheld.com.

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 bar code 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 2-9 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.
4600g, 4600r, 4800i User’s Guide 1 - 7
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 bar codes on page 1-12.

Programming the Interface - Plug and Play

Plug and Play bar codes provide instant imager set up for commonly used interfaces.
Note: After you scan one of the codes, power cycle the host terminal to have the
interface in effect.
Note: See "Imager Models" on page 1-2 to determine which interfaces apply to
your imager.

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 Hand Held Products website (www.handheld.com The 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 class driver. Scanning the code below changes the terminal ID to 130.

RS-232 Serial Port Connection

All communication parameters between the imager and terminal must match for correct data transfer through the serial port using RS-232 protocol. Scanning the RS-232 interface bar code programs the imager for an RS-232 interface at 38,400 baud, parity–none, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and adds a suffix of a CR LF.

Serial Wedge Data Transmission Port

Using the following bar codes, set the port to which you want the scanned data to transmit. Port 1 corresponds to P1 on the output cable and Port 2 corresponds to P2 on the output cable. Choosing Both sends scanned data to P1 and P2.
Default = P1.
* P1

Both P1 and P2

IBM 4683 Ports 5B, 9B, and 17 Connection

Note: See "Imager Models" on page 1-2 to determine which interfaces apply to
your imager.
Scan one of the following “Plug and Play” codes to program the imager for IBM 4683 Port 5B, 9B, or 17.
Note: After scanning one of these codes, you must power cycle the cash
register.

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 bar code 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.
