Introduction

The 5X10/80 series of products is designed for integration into a wide range of OEM devices. The engine’s compact mechanical design can drop into many existing applications, allowing OEMs and third-party manufacturers to integrate the benefits of image-based scanning into a variety of devices, including handheld computers (PDTs), medical instrumentation, diagnostic equipment, and robotics.

Two different decoding configurations provide OEMs the flexibility required to address various application-specific needs. The 5X10, with linear and PDF417 decoding, delivers "laser-like" reading on linear codes, and point-and-shoot on stacked codes. The 5X80 full-featured decoder incorporates Honeywell comprehensive list of decoding capabilities. A Software Developers Kit provides a simple software interface (APIs) to help ease integration. For software updates and additional information, visit the Honeywell website at

www.honeywellaidc.com.

About This Manual

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

Honeywell’s bar code engines 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 Engine

After you open the shipping carton containing the OEM Engine, 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.

engine and to the matching port on the back of the computer.

4. Connect the power supply connector to the serial interface cable. Plug in the power supply.

5. Turn the terminal/computer power back on. The engine beeps.

6. If connecting the Development Engine using an RS-232 interface, all communication parameters between the imager and terminal must match for correct data transfer through the serial port using RS-232 protocol. Scan the RS-232 interface bar code below. This programs the Development Engine for an RS-232 interface at 115,200 baud, parity–none, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and adds a suffix of a CR LF.

7. Verify the engine operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample

Symbols in the back of this manual. The engine beeps once when a bar

code is successfully decoded.

To connect an 5X10/80 engine to your host system, please refer to the Integration Manual.

Reading Techniques

Linear bar code 2D Matrix symbol

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

The aiming beam is smaller when the engine 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

1 - 5

symbols (on a page or on an object), hold the engine at an appropriate distance from the target, send a trigger command, and center the aiming beam on the symbol. If the code being scanned is highly reflective (e.g., laminated), it may be necessary to tilt the code +

5° to prevent unwanted reflection.

RS-232 Receiver Time-Out

The unit stays awake to receive data until the RS-232 Receiver Time-Out expires. A trigger command resets the time-out. When an RS-232 receiver is sleeping, a character may be sent to wake up the receiver and reset the timeout. A transaction on the CTS line will also wake up the receiver. The receiver takes 300 milliseconds to completely come up. Change the RS-232 receiver time-out by scanning the bar code below, then scanning digits from the inside back cover of this manual, then scanning

. The range is 0 to 300 seconds.

Default = 0 seconds (no time-out - always on).

RS-232 Handshaking

RS-232 handshaking is a set of rules concerning the exchange of data between serially communicating devices.

If using RTS/CTS handshaking, the imager issues an active RTS signal to the receiving device. The imager waits to send its data until it detects an active CTS signal from the receiving device. The imager then sends its data while checking the CTS signal before the transmission of each data character. If an inactive CTS signal is detected at any time, the imager halts transmission until it detects another active CTS signal. When the imager has finished transmitting data, it issues an inactive RTS signal to the receiving device.

The 5X80 provides a TTL level serial 232 communication link. TTL Level 232 Inverted is the “normal” mode that allows direct communication from the 5X80 to a standard PC RS-232 serial port with the use of cable (part number 42206139-

04). Non-Inverted serial TTL communication is provided to allow direct connection to

a TTL UART port, or to an RS-232 driver integrated circuit. Note that if theTTL Level 232 Non-Inverted bar code is scanned, the 5X80 will no longer communicate with a standard PC RS-232 port.

TTL Level 232 Inverted with Polarity Override allows direct communication from the 5X80 to a standard PC RS-232 serial port with the use of cable (part number 42206139-04). This setting also allows you to override the polarity externally.

Note: For further information on the TTL Level 232 Interface, refer to the 5X10/

Trigger Modes

Manual/Serial Trigger

You can activate the imager either by providing an external hardware trigger, or using a serial trigger command (see Trigger Commands on page 11-4). When in manual trigger mode, the imager scans until a bar code is read, or until the hardware trigger is released.

When in serial mode, the imager scans until a bar code has been read or until the deactivate command is sent. In serial mode, the imager can also be set to turn itself off after a specified time has elapsed (see Read Time-Out, which follows).

Read Time-Out

Use this selection to set a time-out (in milliseconds) of the imager’s trigger when using serial commands to trigger the imager, or if the imager is in manual trigger mode. Once the imager has timed out, you can activate the imager either by pressing the trigger or using a serial trigger command. After scanning the

Note: This time-out does not begin until the imager time-out setting has expired.

Snap and Ship

Snap and Ship mode allows you to bypass the decoder and ship an image directly to the host. In this mode, an image is taken and shipped upon each trigger pull, instead of being sent to the decoder. Snap and Ship is useful when you are using your own decoder.

Note: Snap and Ship mode only works if the imager is connected via an RS-232

serial port or via a USB keyboard (see Plug and Play on page 2-1). If you use Snap and Ship when the imager is connected to another interface, it calls the decoder after each image ship, but only to look for menu codes.

In concurrent mode, the illumination LEDs are on continuously, while the aimer LEDs turn off during the imager exposure period, and on while the imager is not exposing. Concurrent mode is used to eliminate any flicker of the illumination LEDs that may be objectionable to the user, especially when running the engine at 12 MHz. The illumination LED current is reduced compared to interlaced mode to limit engine peak current. The image engine software automatically maintains an approximate 25% aimer duty cycle, even when the imager exposure time is at its maximum in dark operating environments.

Thermal Considerations

Care must be taken when designing the Image Engine into any system. Internal heating of the Image Engine can occur in high duty cycle scanning applications in several ways. The high visibility aimer dissipates a significant amount of power as heat. The illumination and aiming LEDs also release heat, and are a major contributor to thermal increases in high use or in presentation mode.

An increase in temperature around an Image Engine can cause noise levels on the imager, degrading image quality. The thermal rise can also affect the laser diode. In a continuous scanning or high use environment, the Image Engine temperature can rise 15° to 20°C. Under high ambient temperature conditions, the laser diode is at risk of thermal breakdown and possible failure. The image quality and decode performance will also degrade.

The Power Control PWM can be used to reduce the effect of the illumination LEDs on thermal rise, however, this also reduces the intensity of the illumination. Reducing the intensity of the illumination reduces total power used but can also reduce the depth of field in low light environments.

Centering

Use Centering to narrow the scanner’s field of view to make sure that when the scanner is hand-held, it reads only those bar codes intended by the user. For instance, if multiple codes are placed closely together, centering will insure that only the desired codes are read. (Centering can be used in conjunction with

Aimer Delay on page 4-13 for the most error-free operation in applications where

multiple codes are spaced closely together. Using the Aimer Delay and Centering features, the scanner can emulate the operation of older systems, such as linear laser bar code scanners.)

If a bar code is not touched by a predefined window, it will not be decoded or output by the scanner. If centering is turned on by scanning Centering On, the scanner only reads codes that pass through the centering window you specify using the Top of Centering Window, Bottom of Centering Window, Left, and Right of Centering Window bar codes.

4 - 15

In the example below, the gray box indicates the centering window. The centering window has been set to 20% left, 30% right, 25% top, and 42% bottom. Since Bar Code 1 passes through the centering window, it will be read. Bar Code 2 does not pass through the centering window, so it will not be read.

Note: A bar code needs only to be touched by the centering window in order to

be read. It does not need to pass completely through the centering window.

Data Editing

Prefix/Suffix Overview

When a bar code is scanned, additional information is sent to the host computer along with the bar code data. This group of bar code data and additional, user-defined data is called a “message string.” The selections in this section are used to build the user-defined data into the message string.

Prefix and Suffix characters are data characters that can be sent before and after scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all symbologies, or only with specific symbologies. The following illustration shows the breakdown of a message string:

Prefix

alpha numeric characters

Scanned Data

variable length1-11

Suffix

1-11 alpha numeric characters

Points to Keep In Mind

• It is not necessary to build a message string. The selections in this chapter are only used if you wish to alter the default settings.

Default suffix = None

• A prefix or suffix may be added or cleared from one symbology or all symbologies.

• You can add any prefix or suffix from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page

1252), page A-3, plus Code I.D. and AIM I.D.

• You can string together several entries for several symbologies at one time.

• Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to appear on the output.

• When Setting up for specific symbologies, instead of All Symbologies, the symbology ID value counts as an added prefix or suffix character.

Default prefix = None.

5 - 1

To Add a Prefix or Suffix:

Step 1. Scan the Add Prefix or Add Suffix symbol (page 5-4).

Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in

Appendix A) for the symbology to which you want to apply the prefix or

suffix. For example, for Code 128, Code ID is “j” and Hex ID is “6A”.

Step 3. Scan the 2 hex digits from the Programming Chart inside the back

cover of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies.

Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code

Page 1252), page A-3, for the prefix or suffix you wish to enter.

Step 5. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back

cover of this manual.

Step 6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 for every prefix or suffix character.

Step 7. To add the Code I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 0.

To add AIM I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 1. To add a backslash (\), scan 5, C, 5, C.

Note: To add a backslash (\) as in Step 7, you must scan 5C twice – once to

create the leading backslash and then to create the backslash itself.

Step 8. Scan Save to exit and save, or scan Discard to exit without saving. Repeat Steps 1-6 to add a prefix or suffix for another symbology.

Example: Add a Suffix to a specific symbology

To send a CR (carriage return)Suffix for UPC only:

Step 1. Scan Add Suffix.

Step 2. Determine the 2 digit hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in

Appendix A) for UPC.

Step 3. Scan 6, 3 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this

manual.

Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code

Page 1252), page A-3, for the CR (carriage return).

Step 5. Scan 0, D from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this

manual.

Step 6. Scan Save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.

5 - 2

To Clear One or All Prefixes or Suffixes:

Add CR Suffix

All Symbologies

You can clear a single prefix or suffix, or clear all prefixes/suffixes for a symbology. When you Clear One Prefix (Suffix), the specific character you select is deleted from the symbology you want. When you Clear All Prefixes (Suffixes), all the prefixes or suffixes for a symbology are deleted.

Step 1. Scan the Clear One Prefix or Clear One Suffix symbol.

Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in

Appendix A) for the symbology from which you want to clear the prefix

or suffix.

Step 3. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back

cover of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies.

Your change is automatically saved.

Normally, when you scan a bar code, it gets outputted automatically; however when you do a format, you must use a “send” command (see Send Commands on page 6-2) within the format program to output data.

Multiple formats may be programmed into the imager. They are stacked in the order in which they are entered. However, the following list presents the order in which formats are applied:

1. Specific Term ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length

2. Specific Term ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length

3. Specific Term ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length

4. Specific Term ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length

5. Universal Term ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length

6. Universal Term ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length

7. Universal Term ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length

8. Universal Term ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length

Default Data Format setting = None.

If you have changed data format settings, and wish to clear all formats and return to the factory defaults, scan the Default Data Format code on page 6-4.

To Add a Data Format

Step 1. Scan the Enter Data Format symbol (page 6-4).

Step 2. Primary/Alternate Format

Determine if this will be your primary data format, or one of 3 alternate formats. (Alternate formats allow you “single shot” capability to scan one bar code using a different data format. After the one bar code has been read, the imager reverts to the primary data format. See page 6-

5.) If you are programming the primary format, scan 0 using the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. If you are

programming an alternate format, scan 1, 2, or 3, depending on the alternate format you are programming.

Step 3. Terminal Type

Refer to Supported Terminals (page 3-1) and locate the Terminal ID number for your PC. Scan three numeric bar codes on the inside back

6 - 1

cover to program the imager for your terminal ID (you must enter 3 digits). For example, scan 0 0 0 for RS-232.

Note: The wildcard for all terminal types is 099.

Step 4. Code I.D.

In Appendix A, find the symbology to which you want to apply the data format. Locate the Hex value for that symbology and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual.

Step 5. Length

Specify what length (up to 9999 characters) of data will be acceptable for this symbology. Scan the four digit data length from the

Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. (Note: 50

characters is entered as 0050. 9999 is a universal number, indicating all lengths.)

Step 6. Editor Commands

Refer to Data Format Editor Commands (page 6-2). Scan the symbols that represent the command you want to enter. 94 alphanumeric characters may be entered for each symbology data format.

Step 7. Scan Save from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this

manual to save your entries.

Other Programming Selections

• Clear One Data Format This deletes one data format for one symbology. If you are clearing the primary format, scan 0 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. If you are clearing an alternate format, scan 1, 2, or 3, depending on the alternate format you are clearing. Scan the Terminal Type and Code I.D. (see Supported Terminals on page 3-1), and the bar code data length for the specific data format that you want to delete. All other formats remain unaffected.

• Save from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual This exits, saving any Data Format changes.

• Discard from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual This exits without saving any Data Format changes.

When Data Formatter is required, all input data must conform to an edited format or the imager does not transmit the input data to the host device.

Alternate Data Formats

Alternate formats allow you “single shot” capability to scan one bar code using a different data format than your primary format. When data formats are programmed (see page 6-1), you must input whether you are programming the primary format, or an alternate format numbered 1, 2, or 3.

An alternate format is initiated by scanning one of the 3 alternate format bar codes below. The imager will scan the next bar code, formatting the data with the selected alternate format, then revert immediately to the primary format.

Message Length Description

You are able to set the valid reading length of some of the bar code symbologies. If the data length of the scanned bar code doesn’t match the valid reading length, the imager will issue an error beep. You may wish to set the same value for minimum and maximum length to force the imager to read fixed length bar code data. This helps reduce the chances of a misread.

EXAMPLE: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 9-20 characters.

EXAMPLE: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.

For a value other than the minimum and maximum message length defaults, scan the bar codes included in the explanation of the symbology, then scan the digit value of the message length and Save bar codes on the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. The minimum and maximum lengths and the defaults are included with the respective symbologies.

Codabar Concatenation

Codabar supports symbol concatenation. When you enable concatenation, the imager looks for a Codabar symbol having a “D” start character, adjacent to a symbol having a “D” stop character. In this case the two messages are concatenated into one with the “D” characters omitted.

Default = On.

Code 39 Append

* Off

This function allows the imager to append the data from several Code 39 bar codes together before transmitting them to the host computer. When this function is enabled, the imager stores those Code 39 bar codes that start with a space (excluding the start and stop symbols), and does not immediately transmit the data. The imager stores the data in the order in which the bar codes are read, deleting the first space from each. The imager transmits the appended data when it reads a Code 39 bar code that starts with a character other than a space.

Default = Off.

Code 32 Pharmaceutical (PARAF)

Code 32 Pharmaceutical is a form of the Code 39 symbology used by Italian pharmacies. This symbology is also known as PARAF.
