IT5600/5800

Getting Started

The IT5600 and IT5800 mark a new performance level for handheld scanners. Both the IT5600 and IT5800 are powered by Hand Held Products Adaptus

Imaging Technology. The performance of Adaptus technology delivers aggressive read rates and depths of field on 1D, stacked linear, and matrix codes.

Designed for today’s demanding retail and commercial environments, the IT5600 offers a superior reading range, durability, and the ability to read poor quality bar codes. Linear imaging technology is defined by a bright and sharply focused aiming line, high resolution imaging, and fast reading speed. The IT5600 is comfortable to hold, easy to use, rugged, and excellent for retail applications, as well as for all general scanning applications.

The IT5800 handheld industrial image reader is the first industrial class reader to be powered by Hand Held Products Adaptus imaging technology. Adaptus technology allows you to read bar codes at ranges up to 82 inches on paper labels. In addition, this technology allows your IT5800 to pick up and process your bar code image 270 times per second. Although the IT5800 uses the same general ergonomic design as the IT5600, the IT5800 is built to withstand your toughest industrial applications.

About This Manual

This User’s Guide provides installation and programming instructions for the IT5600/5800. Product specifications, dimensions, warranty, and customer support information are also included.

Hand Held Products bar code scanners 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 Scanner

After you open the shipping carton containing the IT5600/5800, take the following steps:

• Check to make sure everything you ordered is present.

• Save the shipping container for later storage or shipping.

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

Connecting the Scanner When Powered by Host (Keyboard Wedge)

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 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.

Disconnect

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

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

5. Verify the scanner operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample

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

IT5600/IT5800 User’s Guide 1 - 5

Reading Techniques

The scanner has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam that corresponds to its horizontal field of view. The aiming line should be centered horizontally over the bar code; it will not read if the aiming line is in any other direction.

Good Read

Bad Read

The best focus point for reading most code densities is about 5 inches (12.7 cm) from the unit. 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 line on the symbol.

Resetting the Standard Product Defaults

If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your scanner, or you’ve changed some options and want the factory settings restored, scan the

Keyboard Wedge Connection

IT5600 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 Chapter 3 - Output.

If you programmed the scanner for a different terminal interface and you want to change to an IBM PC AT and compatibles keyboard wedge interface, scan the bar code below.

Note: The following bar code also programs a carriage return (CR) suffix.

Connecting the Scanner with Serial Wedge

The IT5600/5800 uses True and TTL signal levels to wedge into an RS-232 serial network. Use only IT5600/5800 serial wedge cables to prevent damage to the scanner. Refer to Connecting the Scanner with RS-232 Serial Port on page 2-8 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 scanner.

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

type of computer.

To Host

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 scanner cable.

7. Plug the power pack into a power source.

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

To set up the serial wedge terminal ID, use the serial terminal ID 050 and follow the instructions on page 2-1. Set the port to which you want the scanned data to transmit.

Terminal Interfaces

Terminal ID

If your interface is not a standard PC AT, refer to "Supported Terminals" on page 2-2 through page 2-3, and locate the Terminal ID number for your PC. Scan the Terminal ID bar code below, then scan the numeric bar code(s) from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual to program the scanner for your terminal ID. Scan Save to save your selection.

For example, an IBM AT terminal has a Terminal ID of 003. You would scan the Terminal ID bar code, then 0, 0, 3 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual, then Save. If you make an error while scanning the digits (before scanning Save), scan the Discard code on the Programming Chart, scan the Terminal ID bar code, scan the digits, and the Save code again.

Note: After scanning one of these codes, you must power cycle your computer.
