2 Installation
2.1 Connecting the hand-held scanner
The individual steps for installing the cable on the scanner are shown in
the adjacent figure.
2.1.1 Switching off the PC
NOTICE
Make sure that the PC is switched off before connecting the
scanner.
Cable latch
2.1.2 Connecting the IT 1910i
1. To secure the connection cable to the scanner, proceed as follows:
Insert the RJ 41 connector into the socket on the bottom of the
hand-held scanner, close the cord grip and secure it using the
screw.
2. Connect the other end of the connection cable to the appropriate
connection socket on the PC.
3. You may need a power supply unit for supplying voltage; alternatively, you can use a cable which
supplies voltage from the computer system. Use the pin assignments (see page 8) to select the
appropriate cable for your application.
4. Connect the power supply unit to the power socket (not necessary if voltage is supplied from the
computer).
5. Check the operational readiness of the scanner by pointing the scanning surface towards a flat surface
and pulling the trigger. A red laser pattern as well as the red illumination should now be visible. Now scan
a sample label. The scanner emits an audible signal to confirm that the label has been read; if necessary,
the data are now passed on to the PC.
Leuze electronic IT1910i 6
2.2 How do I scan codes?
This section explains the best way to scan codes:
The scanner must be held at a slight angle to the
bar code. (Do not hold the scanner at a right angle
to the bar code.)
The red scanning pattern which serves as an
alignment aid should be positioned at the center of
the code. This ensures that the center point of the
camera is aligned with the code.
(The scanner will not be able to detect the label
correctly if it is not fully captured by the camera.)
The red scanning pattern is smaller when the
scanner is held closer to the code. Small codes
should be read at a smaller reading distance. With
larger codes, the reading distance must be large
enough so that the camera can capture the
complete code.
2.2.1 Testing the scanner
The adjacent bar code can be used for testing the scanner, the module
size is 0.5 mm (20 mil)

from the CD-ROM or from our homepage to the PC. Unpack the
file and start INSTALL.BAT. This requires administrator privileges
on the PC!
2. Plug the IT 1910i hand-held scanner into a free USB port.
. Thus,
3. The scanner acknowledges this connection with an acoustic
signal.
4. Scan the code shown below.
5. Open a terminal program or your program for the serial interface,
select the new COM port, and make the following settings: baud
rate 115200, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity. A CR is
transmitted as suffix (or terminator).
Leuze electronic IT1910i 19
The activation command is:
ASCII decimal values: 022; 084; 013
The deactivation command is:
ASCII decimal values: 022; 085; 013
5.6.1.1 Configuration
COM port emulation on the next free COM address with 38400 baud,
8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and a CR as suffix.
5.7 Activating the read process
To activate the read process, a trigger signal is to be sent via the serial RS 232 interface or USB interface
(COM port emulation only). The command is to be sent at the set baud rate, parity, and data and stop bits.
To cancel read readiness, send a deactivation.
Following a successful read operation, the IT 1910i deactivates itself.
The second option is to use the trigger button to establish read readiness.
5.8 Configuration
Further details on configuration, such as parameters for code type release, number of digits, etc., can be
found in the User's Guide IT 1910i/1911i.

5.9 Troubleshooting
For problem detection and troubleshooting, examine your scanner as follows:
1. If the scanner is supplied with power via the connection cable, the scanner and PC must be connected to
each other before the scanner is commissioned. The PC must supply the scanner with 5 V DC. Check the
manual for your PC to ensure that the power supply is adequate for connecting your scanner.
2. Make certain that the connection cable is securely connected to the PC. You can find information on
properly connecting the scanner in the manual for your PC. Support is also available from your technical
staff.
3. If your system operates with an external voltage supply, make certain that the power supply unit is
properly connected to the scanner.
4. Check that the connection cable is securely connected to the handle of the scanner. Remove the
fastening clip and pull out the cable. Now guide the cable back in and make certain that it is properly
seated in the bracket.
5. If, even after performing all of these measures, the scanner is not ready for operation, replace the power
supply unit with a different recommended power supply unit which you are certain functions properly.
6. Make certain that your scanner's interface is compatible with the PC. Further information on this topic can
be found in the manual for your PC. Also check whether the scanner has been configured for the desired
application. This information is given in the User’s Guide IT 1910i/1911i.
7. Check whether the bar code labels which you would like to scan are of suitable quality and that the used
bar code type is recognized by your scanner. Damaged bar code labels (crinkled, torn or soiled) may be
recognized poorly or not at all by the scanner. If you suspect that the problem lies with the quality of the
label, check the read readiness with a label of relatively good quality.
8. If the problems are still not corrected, please contact the Leuze electronic hotline (see chapter 8).
