3-2 Wireless communication setting
3-2-1 Wireless communication setting for handheld unit
Handheld unit RF channel No.: The scanner offers 16 different radio frequency channels for the data transmission between handheld unit and cradle. The number of channel can be increased. Handheld unit address: The scanner offers 2000 different four-digit radio addresses for handheld unit. Note that all scanners used in the same area must have different addresses. Radio power level for handheld unit: By selecting, you can change the radio frequency power level for handheld unit. Batch data mode:
Disable- Do not batch data. The handheld unit attempts to transmit every scanned barcode. If the transmission is failed, the barcode data is ignored. Out-of-range batch The handheld unit starts storing barcode data when it loses its connection to a remote device (for example, when a user holding the handheld unit walks out of range). Data transmission is triggered by reestablishing the connection with the cradle (for example, when a user holding the handheld unit walks back into range). Standard batch- The handheld unit starts storing barcode data after %%%EBM (
Enter Batch Mode
)
is scanned. Data transmission is triggered by scanning %%%SBD (
Send Batch Data
). In Out-of-range batch or Standard batch modes, calculate the number of barcodes the handheld unit can store as follows:
Number of storable barcodes = 16,384 bytes of memory / (number of characters in the barcode + 2). Beep on reconnect attempt: This feature is active only when the Out-of-range batch operating mode is selected. If this feature is enabled, the beeper emits 4 short beeps every 5 seconds while the reconnection attempt is in progress. Radio connection checking interval: This feature is active only when the Out-of-range batch operating mode is selected. The handheld unit checks the radio communication with the cradle once within the time interval. Save data at low-battery or power-off: If it is enabled, the handheld unit will save data to memory while the battery is low or before the power is off. Low battery indicator: If it is enabled, while the power is low, the power LED on the handheld unit flashes 5 times, and the beeper emits 5 beepers for every 10 minutes or 200 scans. In this battery low status, the power LED flashes 2 times by pulling the scanner trigger. Enter sleeping mode interval: If it is enabled, the handheld unit will enter sleeping mode while no operation beyond the time interval defined; the handheld unit will return to normal mode by pulling the scanner trigger. Enter transmitting data mode interval: There is no continuous scanning motion time interval of before the domination handheld unit entering the barcode transmission status. By default when out of range, if there is barcode data awaiting transmission, the handheld unit will try to transmit data to the cradle after no scanning motion occurs for 5 seconds. This can avoid conflict between transmission of barcode data and scanning barcode motion requested by user. Interval for radio communication: An unsuccessful transmission is verified while the handheld unit has
13
not received data beyond the interval. If a RS232 is used, this value should be set not less than feedback delay of RS232 serial port transmission. Inform the result of wired transmission for handheld unit: If this option is enabled, the cradle will only inform the handheld unit the success of data transmission after the data has been successfully transmitted from cradle to host PC.

3-3 Keyboard wedge interface for Cradle
Keyboard type: As a keyboard interface, the scanner supports most of the popular PCs and IBM terminals. Keyboard layout: The scanner supports different national keyboard layouts. Clock period: According to the PS/2 protocol, the clock is provided by the device, e.g. keyboard or scanner, with the period between 60 us to 100 us. Delay-after-compound-key: In some rare occasions, machine with low speed PS/2 communication port would require a free time gap following the press/release of the compound key (Shift, Ctrl or Alt). Numeric key:
Alphabetic key- the scanner will output code result 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 pressing Alt + numeric key (on keypad). Note that the Num Lock control key must be ON. This setting can be specially adapted for use with
different national keyboard layout. Power-on simulation: All of the PCs check the keyboard status during power-on self test. It simulates keyboard timing and passes keyboard present status to the PC during power-on. Inter-character delay: This delay is inserted after each data character transmitted. Inter-byte delay: This delay is inserted after each byte transmitted. Normally a character is comprised of three or above bytes. Block trans. delay: It is a delay timer between barcode data output. This feature is used to transfer continually with shorter barcode data. Caps Lock reversion: By setting enable, the status of Caps Lock key (i.e. being pressed ON or OFF) on the keyboard is simulated in a reversion status. Caps Lock override: If this function is enabled, on AT or AT notebook hosts, the keyboard ignores the state of the Caps Lock key. Therefore, an A in the bar code is sent as an A no matter what the state of the keyboards Caps Lock key.
A guide of setting while the scanned data is incorrectly displayed on the host
If some characters are missed or some additional characters are incorrectly displayed on the host,
set the Inter-byte delay (0208) to be 01 or greater value.
If some capital character (e.g. “A) or compound-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 incorrectly displayed as some symbol characters (e.g. 1 and 2 are displayed
incorrectly as ! and @), set the Clock period (0203) to be greater value (e.g. 04, 05).

3-4 RS-232 interface for Cradle
Flow control:
None-The communication only uses TxD and RxD signals without any hardware or software
handshaking protocol.
RTS/CTS-If the scanner wants to send the barcode data to host computer, it will issue the RTS signal
first, wait for the CTS signal from the host computer, and then perform the normal data communication.
If there is no replied CTS signal from the host computer after the timeout duration, the scanner will
issue an error indication. By setting (Host idle: Low RTS) or (Host idle: High RTS), the scanner can
be set to match the Serial Host RTS line.
XON/XOFF-An XOFF character turns the scanner transmission off until the scanner receives an XON
character.
ACK/NAK-After transmitting data, the scanner expects either an ACK (acknowledge) or NAK (not
acknowledge) response from the host. When a NAK is received, the scanner transmits the same
data again and waits for either an ACK or NAK. After three unsuccessful attempts to send data when
NAKs are received, the scanner issues an error indication and discards the data.
Inter-character delay: Refer to Inter-character delay of
3-3 Keyboard wedge interface for Cradle
.
Response delay: This delay is used for serial communication of the scanner when it waits for a handshaking acknowledgment from the host.

3-5 USB interface for Cradle
USB device type: When the cradle is connected to a PC with a USB cable, it will be identified as a HID keyboard.
HID keyboard– By setting, the scanner is used as a USB HID keyboard emulation device. The
keyboard layout setting follows the setting of keyboard layout in the chapter of Keyboard wedge.
USB virtual COM– By setting, the scanner emulate a regular RS232-based COM port. If a Microsoft
Windows PC is connected to the scanner, a driver is required to install on the connected PC. The
driver will use the next available COM Port number. The driver and the installation guide can be
found in the associated CD and on the manufacturer’s website. A Windows-based software
COM_Text is recommended to display the barcode data in text format. COM_Text emulates some
kind of serial-key typing.
Note: when changing USB Device Types, the scanner automatically restarts.
Keyboard layout: Refer to Keyboard layout of
3-3 Keyboard wedge interface for Cradle
.
Host comm. port speed: By selecting, the user can change the output speed of the scanner to match the speed of the host USB communication port. Generally, set 00 or 01 to work with high communication speed. If some output characters of barcode have been missed, the user may need to set 07 or 08 to slow the data transmission speed of the scanner.
Numeric key: Refer to Numeric key of

3-6 Handheld scan & some global settings
Scanning mode:
Good-read off-The trigger button must be pressed once to activate scanning. The light source of
scanner stops scanning when there is a successful reading or no code is decoded after the Stand-by
duration elapsed.
Momentary-The trigger button acts as a switch. Press button to activate scanning and release button
to stop scanning. The light source of scanner stops scanning when there is a successful reading or
no code is decoded after the Stand-by duration elapsed.
Alternate-The trigger button acts as a toggle switch. Press button to activate or stop scanning.
Continue-The scanner always keeps scanning, and it does not matter when the trigger button is
pressed or duration is elapsed.
Timeout off-The trigger button must be pressed once to activate scanning. The light source of
scanner stops scanning when no code is successful decoded after the Stand-by duration elapsed.
Same barcode delay time: If a barcode has been scanned and output once successfully, the laser beam must be off or moved away from the barcode beyond delay time to active scanning the same barcode. When this feature is set to be 0xFF, then the delay time is indefinite. Double confirm: If it is enabled, the scanner will require a several times of same-decoded-data to confirm a valid reading. Global Max./Min. code length: These two lengths are defined as the valid range of decoded barcode data length. Make sure that the minimum length setting is no greater than the maximum length setting, or otherwise the labels of the symbol will not be readable. In particular, the same value can be set for both minimum and maximum reading length to force the fixed length barcode decoded. Notes:
1. Please set the max./min. length for individual barcode in later sections, if special demand is requested.
2. The number of check digits is included in max./min. code length.
3. These two settings have no effect on the symbols with fixed-length, e.g. UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-13, EAN-8 and China Post. Global G1-G4 string selection: The scanner offer one or two string group for ALL symbols. By setting one or two digits to indicate which string group you want to apply. You may refer to the chapters of
3-30
G1-G4 & FN1 substitution string setting
and
3-31 G1-G4 string position & Code ID position
. Example: Group 1 set 01 or 10. Group 2 and 4 set 24 or 42. All valid settings include 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44. Element amendment: If it is enabled, the scanner can read the barcode comprised with bars and spaces in different scale. Printable character only: If it is enabled, the scanner will output the printable characters only, i.e. in ASCII from 20H to 7EH. Decoder optimization: If it is enabled, the scanner will optimize the decoder with error correction. This

Testing barcode:
FN1 substitution string setting: The FN1 character (0x1D) in an UCC/EAN128 barcode, or a Code 128 barcode, or a GS1 DataBar barcode can be substituted with a defined string. Single character C1/C2 replacement: By setting, a defined character in the data string can be replaced by another defined character. The C1 and C2 replacement are applied simultaneously.
Example: Replace all the A character in a data string to be B character.
Original code data
1 2 3 A 5 A
Output code data
“1 2 3 B 5 B
Steps: scan the following barcodes in order. The ASCII value for A is 41, and the ASCII value for B is

Note: The information in this chapter is closely related to the chapter of String setting.
Format of barcode data transmission:
Prefix
Code name
Preamble
Code ID
Code length
Code data
Code ID
Postamble
Suffix
Prefix transmission: By setting Enable, prefix will be appended before the data transmitted. Suffix transmission: By setting Enable, suffix will be appended after the data is transmitted. Code name transmission: By setting Enable, code name will be transmitted before code data. Preamble transmission: By setting Enable, preamble will be appended before the data transmitted. Postamble transmission: By setting Enable, postamble will be appended after the data is transmitted. Code ID transmission: Code ID can be transmitted in the format of either Proprietary ID or AIM ID. Refer to
1-2 Default setting for each barcode
. Code length transmission: The length of code data string can be transmitted before the code data when Enable is selected. The length is represented by a number with two digits. Case conversion: The characters within code data or the whole output string can be set in either upper case or lower case. FN1 substitution transmission: The scanner supports a FN1 substitution feature. The replacement string of FN1 can be chosen by user (see
3-30 G1-G4 & FN1 substitution string setting
). All-non-printable-character string transmission with string setting: By setting enable, all string settings,
e.g. Preamble transmission or Insert G1 string setting, are active for an all-non-printable-character string.
Here a non-printable character means a character with ASCII value between 0x00 to 0x1F. Transmit the first N data characters only: The scanner supports to only transmit the first N data characters of a barcode. The number of N can be set as a digit between 1 and 99. Transmit the last N data characters only: The scanner supports to only transmit the last N data characters of a barcode. The number of N can be set as a digit between 1 and 99.

4 Troubleshooting
Problem:
Nothing happens when you follow the operating instructions, or the scanner displays erratic behavior.
Possible causes:
1) No power to the scanner.
2) Incorrect cables.
3) Connections are loose.
Possible solutions:
1) Check the system power. Ensure the power supply is connected.
2) Use the original cables.
3) Check for loose cable connections.
Problem:
Laser comes on, but the scanner does not decode.
Possible causes:
1) Bar code symbol is unreadable.
2) Scanner is not programmed for the correct bar code type.
3) Distance between scanner and bar code is incorrect.
Possible solutions:
1) Check the symbol to make sure it is not defaced. Try scanning test symbols
of the same bar code type.
2) Be sure the scanner is programmed to read the type of bar code you are
scanning.
3) Move the scanner closer to or further from the bar code.
Problem:
Scanned data is incorrectly displayed on the host.
Possible causes:
Scanner is not programmed to work with the host. Check scanner host type parameters or editing options.
Possible solutions:
Be sure proper host is selected. For RS-232, ensure the scanner’s communication parameters match the host’s settings.
Problem:
Other circumstances.
Possible solutions:
Contact your distributor or the manufactory support centre.

5 Maintenance
Cleaning the exit window is the only maintenance required. A dirty window may affect scanning accuracy.
1) Do not allow any abrasive material to touch the window.
2) Remove any dirt particles with a damp cloth.
3) Wipe the window using a tissue moistened with water.
4) Do not spray water or other cleaning liquids directly into the window.
5) Use a piece of soft and dry cloth when cleaning the scanner.
