About This Manual
This User Guide provides installation and programming instructions for the Voyager XP™ 1470g corded area-imaging scanners and 1472g cordless area­imaging scanners. Product specifications, dimensions, warranty, and customer support information are also included.
Note: The selections in this User Guide are dependent on the Voyager XP 147Xg model you
have purchased. PDF and 2 dimensional bar codes can only be read by model 147Xg2D and cannot be read by model 147Xg1D.
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.
Unpack Your Device
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.

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

The aiming dot 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 elements (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 trigger, and center the aiming dot 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.

Menu Bar Code Security Settings
Set Custom Defaults
Save Custom Defaults
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 Customer Support on page xiii) for further infor­mation.
Set Custom Defaults
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 scanning the menu commands for your custom defaults. If a menu command requires scan­ning numeric codes from the Programming Chart, then a Save code, that entire sequence will be 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.
Note: When using a cordless system, the Custom Defaults settings apply to all workgroups.
Scanning the Save Defaults bar code also causes both the scanner and the base or Access Point to perform a reset and become unlinked. The scanner must be placed in its base to re-establish the link before any setup codes are entered. If using an Access Point, the linking bar code must be scanned. See Cordless System Operation beginning on page 37 for additional information.
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.

Page 25
Reset the Custom Defaults
Activate Custom Defaults
If you want the custom default settings restored to your scanner, scan the Activate Custom Defaults bar code below. This is the recommended default bar code for
most users. It 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.
Note: If using a cordless system, scanning this bar code also causes both the scanner and
the base or Access Point to perform a reset and become unlinked. The scanner must be placed in its base to re-establish the link. If using an Access Point, the linking bar code must be scanned. See Cordless System Operation beginning on page 37 for additional information.

Keyboard Style
This programs keyboard styles, such as Caps Lock and Shift Lock. If you have used
Keyboard Conversion settings, they will override any of the following Keyboard
Style settings. Default = Regular.
Regular is used when you normally have the Caps Lock key off.
Caps Lock is used when you normally have the Caps Lock key on.
Shift Lock is used when you normally have the Shift Lock key on (not common to
U.S. keyboards).
Automatic Caps Lock is used if you change the Caps Lock key on and off. The soft­ware tracks and reflects if you have Caps Lock on or off. This selection can only be used with systems that have an LED that notes the Caps Lock status (AT key­boards).

Emulate External Keyboard should be scanned if you do not have an external key­board (IBM AT or equivalent).
Note: After scanning the Emulate External Keyboard bar code, you must power cycle your
computer.
Keyboard Conversion
Alphabetic keyboard characters can be forced to be all upper case or all lowercase. So if you have the following bar code: “abc569GK,” you can make the output “ABC569GK” by scanning Convert All Characters to Upper Case, or to “abc569gk” by scanning Convert All Characters to Lower Case.
These settings override Keyboard Style selections.
Note: If your interface is a keyboard wedge, first scan the menu code for Automatic Caps
Lock (page 27). Otherwise, your output may not be as expected.
Default = Keyboard Conversion Off.

the chart). Default = Off.
Note: Control + ASCII Mode overrides this mode.
Keyboard Modifiers
This modifies special keyboard features, such as CTRL+ ASCII codes and Turbo Mode.
Control + ASCII Mode On: The scanner sends key combinations for ASCII control char-
acters for values 00-1F. Windows is the preferred mode. All keyboard country codes are supported. DOS mode is a legacy mode, and it does not support all keyboard country codes. New users should use the Windows mode. Refer to ASCII
Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page 216 for CTRL+ ASCII Values.
Windows Mode Prefix/Suffix Off: The scanner sends key combinations for ASCII control characters for values 00-1F, but it does not translate any prefix or suffix information.
Default = Control + ASCII Mode Off.

Flow Control with Timeout
* RTS/CTS Off
The unit stays awake to receive data until the RS232 Receiver Time-Out expires. A manual trigger resets the time-out. When an RS232 receiver is sleeping, a charac­ter may be sent to wake up the receiver and reset the time-out. A transaction on the CTS line will also wake up the receiver. The receiver takes 300 milliseconds to com­pletely come up. Change the RS232 receiver time-out by scanning the bar code below, then scanning digits from the Programming Chart, then scanning Save. The range is 0 to 300 seconds. Default = 0 seconds (no time-out - always on).
RS232 Handshaking
RS232 Handshaking allows control of data transmission from the scanner using software commands from the host device. When RTS/CTS is turned Off, no data flow control is used.
Flow Control, No Timeout: The scanner asserts RTS when it has data to send, and will wait indefinitely for CTS to be asserted by the host.
Two-Direction Flow Control: The scanner asserts RTS when it is OK for the host to transmit. The host asserts CTS when it is OK for the device to transmit.
Flow Control with Timeout: The scanner asserts RTS when it has data to send and waits for a delay (see RS232 Timeout on page 34) for CTS to be asserted by the host. If the delay time expires and CTS is not asserted, the device transmit buffer is cleared and scanning may resume. Default = RTS/CTS Off.

When using Flow Control with Timeout, you must program the length of the delay you want to wait for CTS from the host. Set the length (in milliseconds) for a time­out by scanning the bar code below, then setting the timeout (from 1-5100 milli­seconds) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart, then scanning Save.
XON/XOFF
Standard ASCII control characters can be used to tell the scanner to start sending data (XON/XOFF On) or to stop sending data (XON/XOFF Off). When the host sends the XOFF character (DC3, hex 13) to the scanner, data transmission stops. To resume transmission, the host sends the XON character (DC1, hex 11). Data transmission continues where it left off when XOFF was sent. Default = XON/XOFF Off.
ACK/NAK
After transmitting data, the scanner waits for an ACK character (hex 06) or a NAK character (hex 15) response from the host. If ACK is received, the communications cycle is completed and the scanner looks for more bar codes. If NAK is received, the last set of bar code data is retransmitted and the scanner waits for ACK/NAK again. Turn on the ACK/NAK protocol by scanning the ACK/NAK On bar code below. To turn off the protocol, scan ACK/NAK Off. Default = ACK/NAK Off.

Scanner-Bioptic Packet Mode
Packet Mode On must be scanned to set the scanner’s format so it is compatible with a bioptic scanner. Default = Packet Mode Off.
Scanner-Bioptic ACK/NAK Mode
Bioptic ACK/Nak On must be scanned so the scanner will wait for an ACK or NAK from a bioptic scanner after each packet is sent. The Scanner-Bioptic ACK/NAK Timeout (below) controls how long the scanner will wait for a response. Default =
Bioptic ACK/NAK Off.

CORDLESS SYSTEM OPERATION
Note: This chapter applies only to cordless scanning systems. It does not apply to corded
scanners.
How the Cordless Charge Base/Access Point Works
A cordless charge base or an Access Point provides the link between the cordless scanner and the host system. The base/Access Point contains an interface assem­bly and an RF communication module. The RF communication module performs the data exchange between the cordless scanner and the interface assembly. The control assembly coordinates the central interface activities including: transmit­ting/receiving commands and data to/from the host system, performing software activities (parameter menuing, visual indicator support, power-on diagnostics), and data translation required for the host system.
The cordless charge base is also a scanner’s battery charger. Refer to Charge
Information, for additional information.
Link the Scanner to a Charge Base
Turn off power before connecting a base, then power up the computer once the base is fully connected. When the base is connected and powered up, put the scan­ner in the base to establish a link. The green LED on the base flashes to indicate the scanner’s battery is charging.
Voyager 1470/1472 User Guide 37
Page 54
If the scanner and base have previously been linked, you do not receive any feed-
CCB01-010BT-V1N Charge Base
Page Button
back. If this is the first time that the scanner and base are linked, both devices emit a short chirp when their radios link. At this point, that one scanner is linked to one base.
To determine if your cordless system is set up correctly, scan one of the sample bar codes in the back of this manual. If the scanner provides a single good read beep and the green LED lights, the scanner has successfully linked to the base. If you receive an error tone and the red LED lights, the scanner has not linked to the base. Refer to page 211 for troubleshooting information.
Link the Scanner to an Access Point
Turn on the computer (laptop/desktop). Plug the interface cable into the Access Point first and then into the appropri­ate port on the computer. The Page button lights up when the connection to the host is made.
Scan the linking bar code on the top of the Access Point to establish a connection between the Access Point and the scanner. The scanner emits a short beep and flashes the green LED to confirm a connection with the Access Point. The Access Point’s Page button remains blue.

If you need to replace a broken or lost scanner that is linked to a base or an Access Point, scan the Override Locked Scanner bar code below with a new scanner and place that scanner in the base, or scan the Access Point linking bar code. The locked link will be overridden; the broken or lost scanner’s link with the base or Access Point will be removed, and the new scanner will be linked.
Communication Between the Cordless System and the Host
The cordless scanner provides immediate feedback in the form of a “good read” indication with a green LED on the scanner and an audible beep. This indicates that the bar code has been scanned correctly and the base or Access Point has acknowledged receiving the data. This is possible since the cordless system pro­vides two-way communication between the scanner and the base or Access Point.
When data is scanned, the data is sent to the host system via the base or Access Point. The cordless scanner recognizes data acknowledgment (ACK) from the base or Access Point. If it cannot be determined that the data has been properly sent to the base or Access Point, the scanner issues an error indication. You must then check to see if the scanned data was received by the host system.
1. Scanner reads code and gets ACK from base or Access Point
2. Base or Access Point sends data to host
Voyager 1470/1472 User Guide 39
Page 56
Program the Scanner and Base or Access Point
When using the scanner and charge base or Access Point together as a system, menu parameters and configuration settings are stored in the charge base or Access Point. Therefore, when programming any menu configuration settings, the scanner must be linked to the intended charge base or Access Point.
Note: This only applies when the scanner is linked to a charge base or Access Point. If the
scanner is in a non-base mode, configuration settings are stored in the scanner.
RF (Radio Frequency) Module Operation
The cordless system uses a two-way Bluetooth® radio utilizing adaptive frequency hopping (AFH) to transmit and receive data between the scanner and the base or Access Point. Designed for point-to-point and multipoint-to-single point applica­tions, the radio operates using a license free ISM band, which sends relatively small data packets at a fast data rate over a radio signal with randomly changing frequencies, makes the cordless system highly responsive to a wide variety of data collection applications and resistant to noisy RF environments. The CCB01­010BT-V1N (Bluetooth Class 2) provides a communication range of 33 feet (10m) between the scanner and base or Access Point, depending on the environment. See
Flexible Power Management, for information about controlling this range.
System Conditions
The components of the cordless system interact in specific ways as you associate a scanner to a base or Access Point, as you move a scanner out of range, bring a scanner back in range, or swap scanners between two cordless systems. The fol­lowing information explains the cordless system operating conditions.
Link Process
Once a scanner is placed into a cordless charge base, the scanner’s battery charge status is checked, and software automatically detects the scanner and links it to the base depending on the selected link mode.
Refer to Link the Scanner to an Access Point, for information about linking to an Access Point.
Scanner Is Out of Range
The cordless scanner is in communication with its base or Access Point, even when it is not transmitting bar code data. Whenever the scanner can’t communicate with the base or Access Point for a few seconds, it is out of range. If the scanner is out of
40 Voyager 1470/1472 User Guide
Page 57
range and you scan a bar code, the scanner issues an error tone indicating no com­munication with the base or Access Point. A cordless charge base can also sound an alarm. Refer to Out-of-Range Alarm.
Scanner Is Moved Back Into Range
The scanner relinks if the scanner or the base or Access Point have been reset, or the scanner comes back into range. If the scanner relinks, you will hear a single chirp when the relinking process (uploading of the parameter table) is complete. Refer to Out-of-Range Alarm for further information.
Out of Range and Back into Range with Batch Mode On
The scanner may store a number of symbols (approximately 500 U.P.C. symbols; others may vary) when it is out of range and then send them to the base or Access Point when back in range (see Batch Mode).
You will not hear a communication error tone in this mode, but you will hear a short buzz when you pull the trigger if the radio communication is not working. Once the radio connection is made, the scanner produces a series of beeps while the data is being transferred to the base or Access Point.
Page Button
When you press the Page button on the base or Access Point, the scanners associ­ated with that base or Access Point will begin beeping (3 short and 1 long beep). If you pull the trigger on a scanner that is beeping in response, or press the Page but­ton on the base or Access Point a second time, all associated scanners will stop beeping. See Page for further information about Page Button settings.
About the Battery
Warning: There is a danger of explosion if the batteries are incorrectly
replaced. Replace the batteries with only the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the recycle program for batteries as directed by the governing agency for the country where the batteries are to be discarded.
Power is supplied to the cordless scanner by a rechargeable battery that is inte­grated in the scanner handle. Batteries are shipped approximately 30% to 60% charged. The battery should be charged for a minimum of 4 hours before initial use to ensure optimal performance.

Charge Information
The battery is designed to charge while the scanner is positioned in the cordless base unit. Refer to Base/Access Point LED Sequences and Meaning, for an inter­pretation of the Charge Status indicators. Refer to Charge Only Mode if you need to charge a scanner without linking it to the base.
Place the scanner in the base that is connected to an appropriate power supply. Use only a Listed Limited Power Source (LPS) or Class 2 type power supply with output rated 5 to 5.2Vdc, 1A.
Note: If you are powering the base through the interface cable (for example, a USB cable)
and not using an external power supply plugged into the aux port, the current available for charging is reduced and charge times are increased.
Battery Recommendations
• The battery is a lithium ion cell and can be used without a full charge, and can also be charged without fully discharging, without impacting the battery life. There is no need to perform any charge/discharge conditioning on this type of battery.
• Keep the base connected to power when the host is not in use.
• Replace a defective battery immediately since it could damage the scanner.
• Although your battery can be recharged many times, it will eventually be depleted. Replace it after the battery is unable to hold an adequate charge.
• If you are not sure if the battery or charger is working properly, send it to Honeywell International Inc. or an authorized service center for inspection. Refer to Customer Support for additional information.
Caution: Use only Honeywell Li-ion battery packs, model number BAT-
SCN01, rated 3.7 Vdc, 7.4Whr in this device. Use of any non­Honeywell battery may result in damage not covered by the warranty.
Safety Precautions for Lithium Batteries
• Do not place batteries in fire or heat the batteries.
• Do not store batteries near fire or other high temperature locations.
• Do not store or carry batteries together with metal objects.
• Do not expose batteries to water or allow the batteries to get wet.
• Do not connect (short) the positive and negative terminals, of the batteries, to each other with any metal object.
• Do not pierce, strike or step on batteries or subject batteries to strong impacts or shocks.
42 Voyager 1470/1472 User Guide
Page 59
• Do not disassemble or modify batteries.
Caution: Danger of explosion if batteries are incorrectly replaced.
Dispose of used batteries according to the recycle program for batteries as directed by the governing agency for the country where the batteries are to be discarded.
Proper Disposal of the Battery
When the battery has reached the end of its useful life, the battery should be disposed of by a qualified recycler or hazardous materials handler. Do not incinerate the battery or dispose of the battery with general waste materials. You may send the scanner’s battery to us. (postage paid). The shipper is responsible for complying with all fed-
eral, state, and local laws and regulations related to the packing, labeling, manifesting, and shipping of spent batteries. Contact Customer Support for recycling or disposal information. Since you may find that your cost of returning the batteries significant, it may be more cost effective to locate a local recycle/dis­posal company.
Beeper and LED Sequences and Meaning
The scanner contains LEDs on the rear of the unit that indicate linking status, decoding state, and battery condition. The base has LEDs on the top of the unit that indicate its power up, communication, and battery charge condition. The red LED = error; green LED = success of any type. Scanners and the CCB01-010BT­V1N base have audible indicators as well: 1 razz or error tone = error; 2 beeps = menu change; 1 beep = all other successes.
The table below lists the indication and cause of the LED indication, beeps, and vibrations for the scanner.

Base Charging Modes
When the base has both an external power supply (plugged into the auxiliary power port) and a host interface cable, it will draw its power from the external power sup­ply. When the base does not have an external power supply, it draws its power from the interface cable. However, the scanner battery charges more slowly from a host interface cable than if auxiliary power were available. Using the following selec­tions, you can specify whether the scanner battery is charged from power supplied via the host interface cable.
When Base Charge Off is selected, the scanner battery does not charge when the scanner is in the base cradle.
When External or Interface Cable Power is selected, the scanner battery charges from the base’s external power supply, if there is one. If there is no external power supply to the base, the scanner battery charges from the interface cable.

Locked Link Mode
(Single Scanner)
There may be times when you want to charge your scanner, but not link to the base. For example, if a scanner is linked to an Access Point or other Bluetooth device and you need to charge the scanner, but want to retain your existing link.
In order to program the base for Charge Only Mode, you must link a scanner to it. Once the scanner is linked to the base, scan the Charge Only Mode bar code. Any subsequent scanners placed in that base will charge without linking to it. The scanner used to program the base remains linked to the base. To unlink this scan­ner, scan Unlink Scanner.
Note: When in Charge Only Mode, the scanner periodically wakes up and beeps. See Power
Up Beeper to change this setting.
If you want to charge a scanner and link to the base, use Charge and Link Mode. If the base is programmed for Charge Only Mode, you must link a scanner to it first in order to program it for Charge and Link Mode. Scan the linking bar code on the base to link the scanner, then scan Charge and Link Mode. Default = Charge and Link Mode.
Linked Modes
Locked Link Mode and Open Link Mode are the link modes that accommodate dif­ferent applications. Scan the appropriate bar codes included in the Open Link and Locked Link Mode explanations that follow to switch from one mode to another. Default = Open Link Mode.
Locked Link Mode - Single Scanner
If you link a scanner to a base or an Access Point using the Locked Link Mode, other scanners are blocked from being linked if they are inadvertently placed into the base, or if the Access Point linking bar code is scanned. If you do place a differ­ent scanner into a base, it will charge the scanner, but the scanner will not be linked.
Voyager 1470/1472 User Guide 49

Open Link Mode - Single Scanner
When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, a scanner is not linked to a base or an Access Point. A link is established when the scanner is placed into a base, or an Access Point linking bar code is scanned. When in Open Link Mode, a new link is established when a new scanner is placed in the base, or you scan an Access Point linking bar code. Each time a scanner is placed into a base or scans an Access Point linking bar code, the scanner becomes linked to the base or Access point and the old scanner is unlinked.
Unlink the Scanner
If a base or an Access Point has a scanner linked to it, that scanner must be unlinked before a new scanner can be linked. Once the previous scanner is unlinked, it will no longer communicate with the base or Access Point. To unlink the scanner from a base or an Access Point, scan the Unlink Scanner bar code below.
Override Locked Scanner
If you need to replace a broken or lost scanner that is linked to a base or an Access Point, scan the Override Locked Scanner bar code below with a new scanner and place that scanner in the base, or scan the Access Point linking bar code. The locked link will be overridden; the broken or lost scanner’s link with the base or Access Point will be removed, and the new scanner will be linked.
Out-of-Range Alarm
If your scanner is out range of the base, an alarm sounds from both your base and scanner. If your scanner is out range of an Access Point, an alarm sounds from just the scanner. The alarm stops when the scanner is moved closer to the base or

the alarm duration expires. To activate the alarm options for the scanner or the base and to set the alarm duration, scan the appropriate bar code below and then set the timeout duration (from 0-3000 seconds) by scanning digits on the
Programming Chart, then scanning Save. Default = 0 sec (no alarm).
Note: The Access Point does not have a base alarm.
Note: If you are out of range when you scan a bar code, you will receive an error tone even if
you do not have the alarm set. You receive the error tone since the data could not be communicated to the base or Access Point or the host.
Alarm Sound Type
You may change the alarm type for the scanner or a CCB01-010BT-V1N base by scanning the appropriate bar code below and then scanning a digit (0-7) bar code and the Save bar code on the Programming Chart. Default = 0.

base or Access Point, or when performing inventory. The data is transmitted to the base or Access Point once the scanner is back in range or when the records are manually transmitted.
Note: Batch mode has limitations when using multiple scanners to one base or Access
Point. If a cordless system is being used in “multiple link mode” where up to 7 scanners are to be connected to one base or Access Point (if supported), some accumulated or batched scans could be lost if scanners are constantly being moved in and out of range.
Automatic Batch Mode stores bar code data when the scanner is out of range of the base or Access Point. The data is automatically transmitted to the base or Access Point once the scanner is back in range. When the scanner’s buffer space is full, any bar codes scanned generate an error tone. In order to scan bar codes again, the scanner must be moved back into range of the base or Access Point so data can be transmitted.
Inventory Batch Mode stores bar code data, whether or not you are in range of the base or Access Point. To transmit the stored data to the base or Access Point, either place the scanner in the base, or scan Transmit Inventory Records. When the scan­ner’s buffer space is full, any bar codes scanned generate an error tone. In order to scan bar codes again, the data must be transmitted to the base or Access Point. Once the data is transmitted, it is cleared in the scanner.
Persistent Batch Mode is the same as Inventory Batch Mode, except that once the data is transmitted to the base or Access Point, it is retained in the scanner. If you want to transmit more than once, you can do so using this mode. In order to clear the scanner’s buffer, you must scan Clear All Codes.
Default = Batch Mode Off.

When scanning in Inventory Batch Mode, the scanner beeps every time a bar code is scanned. When Batch Mode Beep is On, you will also hear a click when each bar code is sent to the host. If you do not want to hear these clicks, scan Batch Mode Beep Off. Default = Batch Mode Beep On.
Batch Mode Storage
When a scanner is storing data during a Batch Mode process, you can select whether the data is stored in Flash memory or in RAM.
Flash Storage: The scanner writes any untransmitted data to flash memory prior to powering down. The data will still be there when the scanner powers back up. How­ever, the scanner will power down, even with untransmitted data, if it reaches a power down timeout or if the battery power is very low.
RAM Storage: The scanner will not power down while it contains data that has not been transmitted to the base or Access Point, even if it reaches a power down time­out. However, if the scanner runs out of battery power, it will power down and the data will be lost.
Default = Flash Storage.

Batch Mode Quantity
* Batch Mode Quantity Off
Batch Mode Quantity On
When in Batch Mode, you may wish to transmit the number of multiple bar codes scanned, rather than a single bar code multiple times. For example, if you scan three bar codes called XYZ with Batch Mode Quantity Off, when you transmit your data it will appear as XYZ three times. Using Batch Mode Quantity On and the Quantity Codes (page 57), you could output your data as “XYZ, 00003” instead.
Note: If you wish to format your output, for example, place a CR or tab between the bar code
data and the quantity, refer to Data Format beginning on page 99.
Default = Batch Mode Quantity Off.
Enter Quantities
Quantity Codes (page 57) allow you to enter a quantity for the last item scanned, up to 9999 (default = 1). Quantity digits are shifted from right to left, so if a 5th digit is scanned, the 1st digit scanned is discarded and the 2nd, 3rd and 4th digits are moved to the left to accommodate the new digit.
For example, if the Quantity 5 bar code is scanned after the quantity has been set to 1234, then the 1 is dropped, the quantity will be 2345.
Example: Add a quantity of 5 for the last item scanned.
1. Scan the item's bar code.
2. Scan the quantity 5 bar code.
Example: Add a quantity of 1,500 for the last item scanned.
1. Scan the item's bar code.
2. Scan the quantity 1 bar code.
3. Scan the quantity 5 bar code.
4. Scan the quantity 0 bar code.
5. Scan the quantity 0 bar code.
Example: Change a quantity of 103 to 10.

scan this bar code, the scanner is unlinked from the base or Access Point and must either be placed into the base, or you must scan the Access Point linking bar code in order to relink.
Scanner Name
You may assign a name to each scanner you are using for identification purposes. For example, you may want to have a unique identifier for a scanner that is receiv­ing imaging commands sent from the base or Access Point.
The default name is in the format “ScannerName_Model_SN_XXXXXXXXXX” If you have more than one scanner linked to a base, and they all have the same name, the first scanner linked to the base receives commands. When renaming a series of scanners with identical names, unlink all except one of the scanners from the base.
Perform the rename operation using either the bar codes on page 61, or by send­ing the serial command :ScannerName:BT_NAMNewName. where ScannerName is the current name of the scanner, and NewName is the new name for the scanner. If you wish to change the names of additional scanners, link them one at a time and repeat the :ScannerName:BT_NAMNewName. command for each scanner.
To rename scanners with sequential, numeric names, scan the bar codes below. Scan the Reset code after each name change and wait for the scanner to relink to the base or Access Point before scanning a bar code to rename the next scanner.

Chart, then scan Save. Scan the Reset bar code and wait for the scanner to relink to
the base.
Application Work Groups
Your cordless system can have up to 7 scanners linked to one base or Access Point. You can also have up to 7 work groups. If you want to have all of the scanners’ set­tings programmed alike, you don’t need to use more than 1 work group. If you want each scanner to have unique settings (e.g., beeper volume, prefix/suffix, data for­matter), then you may program each scanner to its own unique work group and may program each scanner independently. For example, you might want to have multiple work groups in a retail/warehouse application where you need to have dif­ferent data appended to bar codes used in the warehouse area versus the retail area. You could assign all the scanners in the retail area to one work group and those in the warehouse to another. Consequently, any desired changes to either the retail or warehouse area would apply to all scanners in that particular work group. Honeywell’s online configuration tool, EZConfig for Scanning (page 168), makes it easy for you to program your system for use with multiple scanners and multiple work groups.
The scanner keeps a copy of the menu settings it is using. Whenever the scanner is connected or reconnected to a base or an Access Point, the scanner is updated with the latest settings from the base or Access Point for its work group. The scan­ner also receives menu setting changes processed by the base or Access Point. If a scanner is removed from a base or an Access Point and placed into another base or linked to another Access Point, it will be updated with the new base/Access Point settings for whatever work group to which that the scanner was previously assigned. For example, if the scanner was in work group 1 linked to the first base, it will be placed in work group 1 in the second base with the associated settings.

Once your scanner has been connected directly to an iPad, smart phone, or laptop, you can toggle the virtual keyboard on your device with a quick double pull of the scanner trigger.
Bluetooth HID Keyboard Disconnect
If your scanner has been connected directly to an iPad, smart phone, or laptop using Bluetooth HID Keyboard Connect, you must disconnect it in order to once again communicate with the base or Access Point. Scan the Bluetooth HID Key- board Disconnect bar code to unlink the scanner from the currently linked host. Scan the linking bar code on the base or Access Point to relink the scanner.
Bluetooth Serial Port - PCs/Laptops
Scanning the Non-Base BT Connection bar code below unlinks your scanner and puts it into a discoverable state. Once the scanner searches for and connects with a Bluetooth host, the scanner stores the connection to the host device address and switches virtual COM ports. This allows the scanner to automatically relink to the host if the connection is lost.
PDAs/Mobility Systems Devices
You may also use the scanner with a PDA or a Honeywell Mobility Systems device. Scan the bar code below and follow the instructions supplied with your Bluetooth device to locate the scanner, and connect with it.

Minimize Bluetooth/ISM Band Network Activity
The settings described below can help you customize the relinking behavior of the cordless area-imaging system to obtain the best compromise between conve­nience and low interference.
Note: ISM band refers to the 2.4 to 2.48 GHz frequency band used by wireless networks,
cordless phones, and Bluetooth.
Auto Reconnect Mode
Auto Reconnect controls whether or not the scanner automatically begins the relink process when a loss of connection is detected. When the Auto Reconnect On bar code is scanned, the scanner begins the relink process immediately, without user intervention. Default = Auto Reconnect On.
Note: If you are connecting to a Bluetooth Interface Module, set Auto Reconnect to Off.
The table below shows the results of the Auto Reconnect On and Off settings:

Maximum Link Attempts
The Maximum Link Attempts setting controls the number of times the scanner tries to form a connection with a base or an Access Point. During the connection setup process, the scanner transmits in order to search for and connect to a base or an Access Point. In order to prevent continuous transmissions that could inter­fere with other users of the ISM band, the number of attempts to connect is limited by this setting. After the maximum number of attempts is reached, the scanner will not attempt to reconnect to a base or an Access Point. Pressing the trigger, scan­ning an Access Point linking bar code, or placing the scanner in the cradle resets the attempt count and the scanner will again try to link.
or Access Point is powered off. Trigger must be pulled to initiate relinking.
Scan the Maximum Link Attempts bar code, then scan the number of attempts for the setting (from 0-100) from the Programming Chart. Scan Save to save the set­ting. Default = 0.
Note: When Auto Reconnect Mode is On, setting Maximum Link Attempts to zero will cause
the scanner to try to link until the Scanner Power Time-Out Timer setting expires. When Auto Reconnect Mode is Off, setting Maximum Link Attempts to zero will cause the scanner to only attempt linking one time after a trigger pull.

Relink Time-Out
Relink Time-Out
Relink Time-Out controls the idle time between relink attempts. An attempt to link a scanner to a base or an Access Point typically lasts up to 5 seconds. This is the time when the scanner is actually attempting a contact. Relink Time-Out controls the amount of time, in seconds, that elapses between the end of one connection attempt and the start of the next.
Note: The length of time for an attempt depends on the number of scanners connected to
a base unit or Access Point. An extra 7 seconds may be required when a connection is successful.
Scan the Relink Time-Out bar code, then scan the number of seconds for the set­ting (from 1-100) from the Programming Chart. Scan Save to save the setting.
Default = 3 seconds.
Bluetooth/ISM Network Activity Examples
Default values
When the scanner goes out of range, the scanner repeatedly attempts to connect to the base unit or Access Point. Each attempt consists of approximately 5 seconds of active time followed by 3 seconds of idle time. After one hour, the scanner pow­ers off and batch mode data is lost.
Maximum Link Attempts set to 15 Other values at default setting
When the scanner goes out of range, 15 attempts are made to link to the base unit or Access Point. Each attempt consists of approximately 5 seconds of active time followed by 3 seconds of idle time. After 15 cycles (8*15 =120), or about 2 minutes, the scanner stops trying to connect to the base or Access Point, but retains any bar codes that may have been saved in batch mode. After one hour, the scanner powers off and batch mode data is lost.
Auto Reconnect Mode set to 0 Maximum Link Attempts set to 15 Other values at default setting
When the scanner goes out of range, no action is taken to relink. When the trigger is pulled, 15 attempts are made to link to the base or Access Point. Each attempt consists of approximately 5 seconds of active time followed by 3 seconds of idle time. After 15 cycles (8*15 =120), or about 2 minutes, the scanner stops trying to connect to the base or Access Point, but retains any bar codes that may have been saved in batch mode. After one hour, the scanner powers off and batch mode data is lost. Refer to Auto Reconnect Mode, to review other events that can start the relink process.

Note: See Scanner Power Time-Out Timer.
The scanner attempts to connect to the base or Access Point every 15 seconds, measured from one attempt start to the next attempt start. After one half hour, the scanner powers off.
Host Acknowledgment
Some applications require that the host terminal (or server) validate incoming bar code data (database look-up) and provide acknowledgment to the scanner whether or not to proceed. In Host ACK Mode, the scanner waits for this acknowl­edgment after each scan. Visual and audible acknowledgments provide valuable feedback to the scan operator. The Host ACK functionality is controlled via a num­ber of predefined escape commands that are sent to the scanner to make it behave in different ways.
Note: System performance degrades when using Host ACK at rates lower than 9600 baud.
The following criteria must be met for the Host ACK to work correctly:
• The co rdles s syst em must be conf igured for Hos t Por t R S2 32 (te rm inal I D = 000) or USB COM Emulation (terminal ID = 130).
• RTS/CTS is defaulted off. You must enable it if the host system requires it.
• Host ACK must be set to On (page 71).
• A comma must be used as a terminator.
• The host terminal software must be capable of interpreting the bar code data, make decisions based on the data content, and send out appropriate escape commands to the scanner.
Escape commands are addressed to the scanner via “Application Work Groups.” Once a command is sent, all scanners in a group respond to that command. Because of this, it is recommended that each scanner is assigned to its own group in Host ACK mode.
The commands to which the scanner responds are listed on page 72. The [ESC] is a 1B in hex. A typical command string is y [ESC] x, where “y” is the application work group number, “[ESC] x” is the escape command, and the comma is the terminator, which is required. (When “y” is not specified, the command is sent to the default Application Work Group 0.)
Example: Commands may be strung together to create custom response sequences. An
example of a command string is listed below.
0[ESC]4,[ESC]5,[ESC]6,

Example: A good read beep is required for any item on file, but a razz or error tone is required
if the item is not on file. In this case,
[ESC]7, is sent to the host for an on-file product
[ESC]8,[ESC]8, is sent to the host for a not-on-file product
When a bar code is scanned, the scanner enters a timeout period until either the host ACK sequence is received, or the timeout expires (in 10 seconds, by default).
Once Host ACK is enabled, the system works as follows when a bar code is scanned:
• The scanner reads the code and sends data to the base or Access Point to transmit to the host system. No audible or visual indication is emitted until the scanner receives an escape command. The scanner read illumination goes out when there’s a successful read.
• Scanner operation is suspended until 1) a valid escape string is received from the host system or 2) the scanner times out.
• Once condition 1 or 2 above has been met, the scanner is ready to scan again, and the process repeats.
A timeout occurs if the scanner does not receive a valid escape command within the timeout period. A timeout is indicated by an error tone. If a timeout occurs, the operator should check the host system to understand why a response to the scan­ner was not received.

Serial Trigger Mode
Read Time-Out
Presentation Mode
You can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trigger command (see Trigger Commands on page 174). When in serial mode, the scanner scans until a bar code has been read or until the deactivate command is sent. The scanner 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 scanner’s trigger when using serial commands to trigger the scanner. Once the scanner has timed out, you can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger or using a serial trigger command. After scanning the Read Time-Out bar code, set the time-out duration (from 0-300,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits on the Programming Chart, then scanning Save. Default = 30,000 ms.
Presentation Mode
Presentation Mode uses ambient light to detect bar codes. The LED dims until a bar code is presented to the scanner, then the LED brightens to read the code. If the light level in the room is not high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly.
Note: If you are using a cordless charge base in Presentation Mode, the battery will not
charge unless the power supply is plugged into the base’s auxiliary power port.
Scan the following bar code to program your scanner for Presentation Mode.
Presentation Centering
Use Presentation Centering to narrow the scanner’s field of view when it is in the stand to make sure the scanner reads only those bar codes intended by the user. For instance, if multiple codes are placed closely together, Presentation Centering will insure that only the desired codes are read.
Note: To adjust centering when the scanner is hand-held, see Centering.
