Specifications Manual

1. Abstract

This manual provides specifications for the H-32 portable terminal (hereafter referred to as
“scanner”).

2. Overview

The H-32 is a fully programmable portable Windows CE terminal with a built-in laser scan engine.
Applications can be developed in C++/C# and all other languages supported by Windows CE and
can be installed in the H-32’s internal flash memory. The H-32 also features a Micro SD memory
expansion option on which e.g. a product database can be stored. The H-32’s also features an
easy to use very rugged keyboard for data entry. For data communication, a WiFi (802.11
a/b/g/n/), Bluetooth V 2.1 + EDR and USB active sync interface is added.

An application development kit, required to write, compile and install applications on the H-32 is
available as a free download. This kit has to be used in combination with the standard Microsoft
development tools (Visual Studio). The kit contains libraries for both C++ and .Net for easy access
to the barcode scanner.

Incandescent light 4,000 lx
Fluorescent light 4,000 lx
Sunlight 80,000 lx

Conditions

Barcode Sample: OPTOELECTRONICS Test Sample

PCS = 0.9, Resolution = 0.25 mm, Quiet Zone = 15 mm,
Symbology = 9-digit Code 39, N/W Ratio = 1:2.5

Distance 96 mm from the edge of the scanner
Angle α = 0° β = 15° γ = 0°
Curvature R = ∞

Direct light or specular reflection from a light source should be prevented from entering the
acceptance area.

Note: α, β and γ respectively represent pitch, skew and tilt. Please see section 8 for how
these values are defined.

4.5. Static Electricity

Air discharge:
Contact discharge:

± 8 kV MAX (No malfunction)

± 4 kV MAX (No malfunction)

The criteria minimum performance level (or the permissible performance loss) is specified by the
manufacturer, then either of these may be derived from the product description and documentation,
and by what the user may reasonably expect from the H-32 if used as intended.

Performance criterion A

During and after the test the H-32 shall continue to operate as intend ed w ithout o perator
intervention. No degradation of performance or loss of function is allowed below a minimum
performance level specified by the manufacturer when the H-32 is used as intended. The
performance level may be replaced by a permissible loss of performance. If the minimum
performance level or the permissible performance loss is not specified by the manufacturer,
then either of these may be derived from the product description and documentation, and by

what the user may reasonably expect from the H-32 if used as intended.

Performance criterion B

During and after testing, a temporary loss of function is allowed, provided the function is self
recoverable, or can be restored by the operation of the controls or cycling of the power to the H-32 by
the user in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
If performance drop of USB Datalink occurs due to ESD please remove and re insert the USB
connector.

Performance criterion C

During and after testing, Functions, and/or information stored in non-volatile memory, or protected by
a battery backup, shall not be lost.

After testing can be recovered to normal operation by reboot, are permissible by the user in accordance

with the manufacturer’s instructions.

4.6. Drop resistance.

There will be no sign of decreased performance after the following drop test:
Drop the scanner from 1.5 M above the concrete floor (6 sides, 3 times each).
