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 porta ble data termin al in
non decoded output mo de.

Note: The IMAGETEAM 4410 and 4710 scanners are fac tory 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.

Disconnect

3. Connect the appropri­ate interface cable to
the scanner and to the
terminal/
computer. The scan­ner will beep twice.

4. Connect the power

supply (4 to 9V).

5. Turn the terminal/com­puter power back on.

6. Verify the scanner

operation by sc anning
a bar code. The scan­ner will beep once.

The scanner is now co nnected and ready to communi cate 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 cent ered over the bar code, bu t it can be position ed in any direction for
a good read.

Linear bar code 2D Matrix symbol

The aiming beam is smaller when the Imager is closer to the code and larger
when it is farth er from the code. Sym bologie s with sma ller bars or e lements (mil
size) should be rea d closer to the unit. Symbol ogies with larger bars or elements
(mil size) should be read farther from the uni t. (see "Depth of Field Cha rts (4410
& 4710)" on page 10-4.) To r ead s ingle or mu ltiple sym bols (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.

Reset Factory Settings

All operating parameters are stored in nonvolatile memory resident in the
Imager, wher e they are permanently re tained in the event of a power interruption.
When you receive your Imag er, certain operating param eters have already been
set. These are the factory defaults, indicated by the symbol “✱” on the
programming menu pages (beneath the default programming symbol). Default
charts begin on page 5-1.

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 t he setting s, skip to "Po wer 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 Termin al ID b ar code, th en 0, 0, 2 from the insi de bac k cover, th en 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
