This User’s Guide provides installation and programming instructions for the Voyager 1200g linear scanner. Product specifications, dimensions, warranty, and customer support information are also included.
Honeywell 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.
After you open the shipping carton containing the product, 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.
A scanner can be connected to the USB port of a computer.
1.Connect the appropriate interface cable to the scanner first, then to the computer.
2.The scanner beeps.
1 - 1
3.Verify the scanner operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample Symbols in the back of this manual.
The unit defaults to a USB PC Keyboard. Refer to page 2-5 for other USB terminal settings.
For additional USB programming and technical information, refer to “USB Application Note,” available at www.honeywellaidc.com.
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 and disconnect the keyboard cable from the back of the terminal/computer.
2.Connect the appropriate interface cable to the scanner and to the terminal/computer.
only if power supply is included
3.Turn the terminal/computer power back on. The scanner beeps.
4.Verify the scanner operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample Symbols in the back of this manual. The scanner beeps once.
The unit defaults to an IBM PC AT and compatibles keyboard wedge interface with a USA keyboard. A carriage return (CR) suffix is added to bar code data.
1 - 2
1.Turn off power to the terminal/computer.
2.Connect the appropriate interface cable to the scanner.
only if power supply is included
3.Plug the serial connector into the serial port on your computer. Tighten the two screws to secure the connector to the port.
4.Once the scanner has been fully connected, power up the computer.
This interface programs 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
1 - 3
A scanner can be connected for an IBM POS terminal interface.
1.Connect the appropriate interface cable to the device, then to the computer.
2.Turn the terminal/computer power back on. The scanner beeps.
3.Verify the scanner operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample Symbols in the back of this manual. The scanner beeps once.
For further RS485 settings, refer to RS485, page 2-2.
The scanner has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam that corresponds to the scanner’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam should be centered horizontally over the bar code and must highlight all the vertical bars of the bar code. It will not read if the aiming beam is in any other direction.
Good Read |
Bad Read |
The aiming beam is smaller when the scanner 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 ele-
1 - 4
ments (mil size) should be read farther from the unit. To read single or multiple symbols (on a page or on an object), hold the scanner at an appropriate distance from the target, press the button, 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 up 15° to 18° to prevent unwanted reflection.
Honeywell scanners are programmed by scanning menu bar codes or by sending serial commands to the scanner. If you want to restrict the ability to scan menu codes, you can use the Menu Bar Code Security settings. Please contact the nearest technical support office (see Technical Assistance on page 12-1) for further information.
You have the ability to create a set of menu commands as your own, custom defaults. To do so, scan the Set Custom Defaults bar code below before each menu command or sequence you want saved. If your command requires scanning numeric codes from the back cover, then a Save code, that entire sequence will be saved to your custom defaults. Scan the Set Custom Defaults code again before the next command you want saved to your custom defaults.
When you have entered all the commands you want to save for your custom defaults, scan the Save Custom Defaults bar code.
Set Custom Defaults
Save Custom Defaults
You may have a series of custom settings and want to correct a single setting. To do so, just scan the new setting to overwrite the old one. For example, if you had previously saved the setting for Beeper Volume at Low to your custom defaults, and decide you want the beeper volume set to High, just scan the Set Custom Defaults bar code, then scan the Beeper Volume High menu code, and then Save Custom Defaults. The rest of the custom defaults will remain, but the beeper volume setting will be updated.
1 - 5
If you want the custom default settings restored to your scanner, scan the Activate Custom Defaults bar code below. This resets the scanner to the custom default settings. If there are no custom defaults, it will reset the scanner to the factory default settings. Any settings that have not been specified through the custom defaults will be defaulted to the factory default settings.

Scan one of the following codes to program the scanner for USB PC Keyboard or USB Macintosh Keyboard. Scanning these codes also adds a CR and LF.
USB Keyboard (PC)
USB Keyboard (Mac)
USB Japanese Keyboard (PC)
USB HID
Scan the following code to program the scanner for USB HID bar code scanners.
USB HID Bar Code Scanner
If you attempt to set a USB interface for your scanner, but the setup fails on the host system, you can program the scanner to fall back to a HID keyboard interface after a set length of time. For example, if the scanner is configured for Serial Emulation Mode, but the host system does not have the correct driver, the scanner would fail. If you set the HID Fallback Mode for a set length of time, for example, 5 minutes, the scanner would change to a HID keyboard interface after 5 minutes of trying to configure as serial emulation.
A unique beep sequence indicates that this mode has been entered. While in HID Fallback Mode, the scanner will not scan normal bar codes and sounds a unique beep sequence that indicates the scanner is in Fallback Mode. Menu codes can still be scanned while in HID Fallback Mode, allowing you to change the scanner’s programming.
2 - 5
Scan the bar code below, then set the length for the HID Fallback (from 0- 60 minutes) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart, then scanning
Save. Default = 5 minutes.
HID Fallback Mode
Scan one of the following codes to program the scanner to emulate a regular RS232-based COM Port. If you are using a Microsoft® Windows® PC, you will need to download a driver from the Honeywell website (www.honeywellaidc.com). The driver will use the next available COM Port number. Apple® Macintosh computers recognize the scanner as a USB CDC class device and automatically uses a class driver.
Scanning either of these codes also adds a CR and LF.
USB Serial Emulation for Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and later
USB Serial Emulation for Windows 2000
Note: No extra configuration (e.g., baud rate) is necessary.
CTS/RTS Emulation On
* CTS/RTS Emulation Off
2 - 6
ACK/NAK Mode On
* ACK/NAK Mode Off
This allows you to set the length (in milliseconds) for a timeout for the host ACK/NAK response. Scan the bar code below, then set the timeout (from 0-65535 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart, then scanning Save. Default = 2000 ms.
Communication Timeout
Timeout Retries
This setting limits the number of Communication Timeout retries. If the Timeout Retries is set to 0, the transmission is terminated after the initial Communication Timeout. Scan the bar code below, then set the number of retries (from 0-255) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart, then scanning Save. (5 is the recommended setting.) Default = 0.
Timeout Retries

* On
This selection limits the number of NAK retries that can occur in ACK/NAK mode. Scan the bar code below, then set the number of retries (from 0- 255) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart, then scanning Save. (5 is the recommended setting.) Default = 0, or disabled.
NAK Retries
This protocol responds to <BEL> and <CAN> commands when in ACK/ NAK mode. The scanner sounds an error tone when a <BEL> command is sent from the host. <CAN> terminates the transmission. Default = BEL/ CAN Off.
BEL/CAN On
* BEL/CAN Off
