Section 1 Introduction & Quick Start Menu

Introduction

Your scanner provides high value performance in an economical, durable
solution for a wide variety of bar code data collection applications. The scanner
contains Welch Allyn’s Instant Interface module, which integrates aggressive
(“snappy”) decoding, advanced data editing and formatting capabilities, and
multiple interface connectivity.

The scanner recognizes and decodes 14 industry-standard bar code
symbologies.

The scanner can be programmed for many communications parameters and
input/output protocols compatible to the host. Programming is accomplished by
using the single programming bar codes in this menu. Use this chapter to
program your laser scanner to work with your terminal/computer.

Keyboard Wedge Interface Example

(Cable, Keyboard, and Terminal will vary.)

➌ Turn on the power to the host system.

➍ Program your scanner to work with your terminal or computer by scanning

the Terminal Set–Up Codes. Either scan the Plug and Play codes (Pages
1–7 to 1–10) or use the Supported Terminal list (Pages 1–11 to 1–12) to
determine your terminal’s Terminal ID.

With Plug and Play programming, you connect the scanner and scan only one
bar code to program the scanner to work with a designated interface, including
any required prefixes and suffixes.

➎ To determine if your scanner is set up correctly, scan one of the sample bar

codes on the back cover of this guide.

original factory settings, clearing any programming changes you may have
made.

Quick Suffix Selections

If your application requires it, scan the Program Carriage Return Suffix bar
code to program a carriage return (CR) suffix for all enabled bar code
symbologies. Scanning this bar code clears all previously programmed

prefixes and suffixes.

Scan the Clear Bar Code Suffix bar code to disable (or clear) all previously
programmed prefixes and suffixes (e.g., the carriage return suffix).

Scanner models 5700–X1 and 5700/X–X2 support the dual interface option
allowing you to connect to two different terminals by switching interface cables.
This option supports interfaces common to portable data terminals.

Dual Interface Programming Instructions

To program the scanner for secondary interface, follow the steps below. (Dual
Interface single scan programming codes are shown on the following
pages.)

➊ While the scanner is connected to the primary terminal interface, scan one

of the single bar codes on 1–15 to enable the secondary interface.

➋ Disconnect the primary interface cable from the scanner and attach the

secondary interface cable.

➌ Attach the secondary interface cable to the secondary terminal and power

up the terminal.

➍ Program the desired programmable selections for the secondary interface.

Dual Interface Programming Notes:

• To change the secondary interface from one selection to another (e.g., from
HHLC to RS-232), the scanner must be reconnected to the primary
interface, and then reprogrammed for the new secondary interface.
Connect the scanner to the primary interface cable. Follow steps 1–4
above.

• Scanning “Plug and Play” bar codes (single scan terminal selection bar
codes), or changing the terminal type does not affect Dual Interface settings.

• RS-232 programmable selections are used by both the primary and
secondary interfaces. Changing an RS-232 parameter (e.g., baud rate or
parity), while in primary or secondary mode will affect both interfaces.

• The Switch Power feature is a low power sleep mode which is automatically
enabled when the secondary interface cable is attached and the unit is
programmed for a second interface. The option is enabled when the unit is
shipped.

Note: Dual Interface selection is not available if the scanner is programmed for
an HP terminal with a Terminal I.D. of 20 or 79, or for a WYSE terminal with a
Terminal I.D. of 13–18.

[ Note: Section 2 contains information about Dual Interface Prefix/Suffix
programming.

Dual Interface Disable Selection lets you temporarily disable the dual interface
selection, while retaining your secondary interface setup in memory. If you want
to enable the secondary interface again, scan the Enable Dual Interface bar
code below.

Switched Power Mode Selections

When this feature is enabled, the unit consumes less than 50 uA from its power
line when the trigger is not pulled. When the trigger is pulled, it consumes normal
power. This feature is used for battery powered devices to save power. If power
savings is not an issue and speed is, disable this feature for better performance.

✱ Switched Power (Low Power) Mode

Constant Power Mode

Laser Emulation Power Up Delay Selection

Scan the Laser Emulation Power Up Delay bar code to delay full power up. This
allows the PDT terminal to power up on scanner trigger. The PDT powers down
between scans, greatly extending battery life.

Scan two of the Numeric Bar Codes on the Programming Chart (inside back
cover) to set the delay to any value between 00 and 99. 00–99 is the multiplier
(x5ms).

Primary Interface Prefix and Suffix

The scanner transmits a decoded message after every successful bar code
read. Prefix and Suffix characters are data characters you may assign to be sent
before and after the transmitted bar code data.

Transmitted data frame –>

Characters for the Prefix and Suffix are selected by their hexadecimal ASCII
value, up to 12 characters each. Prefix and Suffix characters may be sent for a
specific symbology, or may be sent with all bar code scans.

Default Prefix = none. Default Suffix = none.

Programming Steps to Add a Primary Interface Prefix / Suffix:

➊ To add a Prefix, scan the Add Primary Prefix programming bar code.

To add a Suffix, scan the Add Primary Suffix programming bar code.

➋ Refer to the Symbology Chart (page 2–7) to find the Hex value that

represents the symbology(s) you want transmitted with one or more
Prefixes or Suffixes. Scan the two digits on the Programming Chart (on
the inside of the back cover of this menu).

➌ Refer to the Hex ASCII Chart (page 2–7) to find the Hex value that

represents the ASCII characters you wish to transmit with the bar code
data. Use the Programming Chart (inside back cover) to scan the
alphanumeric combination that represents the ASCII characters.

➍ To complete Prefix / Suffix programming, scan either:

H Save Current Prefix or Suffix Changes[ programming bar code.

This exits, saving the Prefix / Suffix selections you just assigned.

H Discard Current Prefix or Suffix Changes programming bar

code. This exits without changing the Prefix / Suffix.

Prefix SuffixBar Code Message

[ You may also start scanning bar codes; your Prefix / Suffix selections will be saved.

Programming Steps to Clear (or Delete) One Prefix / Suffix Entry:

➊ To clear the Prefix entry for a specific symbology, scan the Clear One

Primary Prefix programming bar code.
To clear the Suffix entry for a specific symbology, scan the Clear One
Primary Suffix programming bar code.

➋ Refer to the Symbology Chart to find the Hex value representing the

symbology’s entry you want cleared. Scan the two digits on the
Programming Chart (on the inside of the back cover of this menu).

➌ You don’t need to scan Save Current ... Changes or Discard Current

... Changes programming bar codes to complete programming.

Other Programming Selections: Scanning the Clear All Primary Prefixes or
Clear All Primary Suffixes bar code deletes all
selections. You don’t need to scan the Save Current ... Changes or Discard
Current ... Changes programming bar code to complete programming.
