Power Supply

Power must be supplied to the V400-H111/211 via the cable.
Wire the power supply independently of other devices. In particular, keep the power supply
wired separately from inductive loads.

Use a DC power supply with safe extra-low-voltage circuits to prevent high voltage. If UL recognition is
required for the overall system, use a UL Class II DC power supply.

The trigger buttons located on the left and right sides of the Handheld 2D Code Reader
perform the same operations.
When a trigger button is pressed, the 2D Code Reader will start reading code.

■ Trigger Mode

Triggers can be input two different ways. Select the input method to suit the required
application.

◆ Level Trigger (Factory setting)

The 2D Code Reader repeats reading while a trigger button is held down.
Reading will be stopped when the code has been read successfully or when the trigger
button is released.

◆ Alternate Trigger

Once a trigger button is pressed, reading will be repeated even after the trigger button
is released.
Reading will be stopped when the trigger button is pressed again or when the code has
been read successfully.

■ Zoom Lever

The zoom lever is used to change the field of
vision to suit the size of the code to be read.

Comparison Principle

With display conversion, comparison is performed with the data contained in the file, and the display

contents is changed to the registered text strings for characters that match.

Matching processing is performed in order starting from the beginning of the file. Once a match is

found, no further comparisons are made, i.e., matching processing is affected by the entry order.
Therefore, when comparing complicated patterns, make sure that the optimum order is used.

ASCII Table

Data read with no-protocol commands using the serial communications interface is output as 2
characters of ASCII.
The ASCII characters correspond to the following characters.

Examples:

• When the read data is A, 41 is output.

• When the data read is T, 54 is output.

FCS Calculation Method

■ FCS Calculation Method

The FCS (Frame Check Sequence) is the result of taking the XOR for each byte
between the header and footer (8 bits) and converting it to 2 characters of ASCII.
The FCS can be attached to output data to improve the reliability of communications.
Each time data is received, the host calculates the FCS and checks it against the FCS
attached to the sent data so that the send data can be checked for errors.

■ Calculation Example for Sending FCS

Sample read data: ABCDEFG

Maximum Data Capacity
Even with the same 2D code, the maximum quantity of information that can be stored depends on
the symbol size of the code.
In other words, the symbol size must be increased to increase the data capacity.
The data capacity also depends on the type of characters used for the information contained in the
code. With QR and DataMatrix Code, the maximum number of characters for the same symbol size
will be greatest for numbers only and then for alphanumerics, and will be the least with 2-byte
characters.
The data capacity also depends on the character type, and the order and combination of characters
used.
