frequency channel number s are applied to different clusters . While setting up, only the radio
frequency channel nu mber of the first hand held unit of a single cluster is required to b e set. When
the first handheld unit b inds to the cradle, the crad le will automatically obtain the radio fre quency
channel number of the h andheld unit. The consecut ive joined handheld u nits will automatica lly
obtain the radio frequ ency channel number of the cr adle.
11) In order to obtain constan tly good communication quality , when in multi- clusters working mode, the
physical space between t wo cr adles is required to b e at least 2 meters.
12) In order to obtain con stant ly good com munication quality, it is recommended to place the cradle on a
higher location, generally more than 1 meter above the ground. If working out door , the higher
location the better .

3-2 Example 2: Multiple-parameter setting by scanning a QR code
barcode
User can customize a QR code barcode to set multiple para meters. The scanner can set multiple
parameters by scann ing this single QR code barco de.
1. The data format o f the QR code barcode is as followi ng.
% P ar am et er set 1
%
P ar am et er set 2
% P ar am et er set N %
<O pt i on bar code i ndex><D / H ><A l pha. ent r i es>
···
Note that:
<Option barcode index> means t he c orresponding 4 digit s of Option barcode.
<D/H> means “D” or “H” character . D means that the type of alpha numeric entry is dec i mal; and H
means that the type of alphanu meric entry is hexadecimal.
<Alpha. entries> is a character string with various lengt h of 2, 4, or other values.
Example: Set 0401- >03 (decimal); 8002- > 0D0A (h exadecimal); 8202->0 1 (decimal). The customized
QR code barcode content s and symbol are as follo w ing.
%0401D03%8002H0D0A %8202D01%
2. Notes of making QR code barco de
The model is chosen as M2. Other requirement s, e.g. ECC level, St art mode, etc, are not specif ied.
Other notes
1- The contents of a QR cod e barcode can include sev eral same <Option barcode index> as sociated
with same or differ ent <Alpha. entries>. In the case of with different < Alph a. entries>, the latest
<Alpha. entries> is the val id on e.
2- If any one of the parameter set tings is invalid , the total settin g is failed. The invalid setting can be
caused by one of the following problems: invalid <Opt ion barcode index>, inv alid type of <D/H>,
invalid type, length or value r ange o f <Alpha. entries>, etc.

3-5 Batch data mode Disable- Do not batch data. The handheld unit attempts to transmit ever y scanned barcode. If the
transmission is failed, the bar c od e data is ignored.
Out-of -range batch - The handheld un it st arts stori ng bar code data whe n it loses its co nne ction to a
remote device (for example, w hen a user holding the handhe ld unit walks out of range). Dat a
transmission is triggered by reestablishin g the connection with the cr adle (for example, when a u ser
holding the handheld unit w al ks back into range).
Standar d batch- The handheld unit st arts storing barcode d ata after %%% EBM” (Enter Batch Mode )
is scanned. Data transmission is triggered by scan ning “%%%SBD ” ( Send Batch Dat a).
If you wish to output the tot al number of barcodes scanne d when in Standard batch Mode, scan “%%%BD N” .
In Out-of -range batch or St andard batch modes, calculate the number of barc odes the handheld unit
can store as follows:
Number of storable barco des = 524,288 bytes of m em or y / (number of characters in t he barc ode + 2).

3-6 Keyboard wedge interfac e for c ra dl e Keyboard t ype: As a keyboard interface, the scanner support s most of the popular PCs and I BM
terminals.
Keyboard l ay out: The scanner supports different national keybo ard layouts.
Clock period: According to t he PS2 protocol, the clock is provided by the device, e.g. keyboard or
scanner , with the period betw een 60 us to 100us.
Delay- after-compound -key : In some rare occa sio ns, machine with low speed PS2 communication port
would require a free time gap f ol low ing the press/release of the co mpound key (Shift, Ctrl or Alt).
Numeric key:
Alphabetic key- The scanner will output code res ult as alphabetic key .
Numeric key- The scanner will output code result as pressing numeric keypad ( ‘0’ , ‘1’ , ‘2’ , ‘3’, ‘4’ , ‘5’,
‘6’, ‘7’, ‘8’, ‘9’, ‘.’, ‘+’, ‘-‘, ‘/’, ‘* ’ only).
Alt + keypad - The scanner will output code result as press ing Alt+ numeric key (on keypad) . Note
that the Num Lock control key must be ON. This setting can be specia lly adapted for use with
different nationa l key board layout.
Power-on simulation: All of the P Cs check the keyboard st atus during power-on self test. It si mulates
keyboard timing and p asses keyboard present st atus to the PC during pow er-on.
Inter-character delay: This delay is inserted after e ach data character t r ans mitted.
Inter-byte dela y: This delay is inserted after each b yte transmitted. Normally a character is compr ise d
of three or above bytes.
Block tr ans. delay: It is a delay timer between barcode data output. This feature is used to transfer
continually with shorter ba r code dat a.
Caps Lock reversion: By set ting enable, t he st atus of Caps Lo ck key (i. e. being pr essed O N or OFF) on
the keyboard is simulated in a rev ersion status.
Caps Lock override : If th is functi on i s enabled, on AT or A T notebook hosts, the key board ignores the
state of the Caps Lo ck key . Therefore, an ‘A ’ in t he bar code is sent as an ‘ A ’ no matter what the st ate of
the keyboard’s Caps Lock key.
A guide of setting while t he sca n ned data is incorrect ly displayed on t he host
If some characters are missed or some add itional characters are incorrectly displayed on the host,
set the Inter-byte delay (0208) to be “ 01” or greater value.
If some capital c haracter ( e.g. “A”) or compo und -key -characters (e.g.“shift+ ”, “Ctrl +”, “Alt+ ”)are
displayed incorrectly , set the Delay-after - compound-key to be “ 01” or greater value.
If some digits are incorrect ly displayed as some symbol charact ers (e.g. “1” and “2” are displayed
incorrectly as “!” and “@”), set the Clock period (0203) to be greater value (e.g. 04, 05).
