First-time Operation
Supplementary Instructions
This Supplementary Instructions explains how to get started with a barcode scanner and
point out cases where the operation of the computer will differ from that in the Operating
Instructions.
Precautions
Do not look directly into the scanning window.
DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE LASER LIGHT.
Do not scan barcodes with parameter settings. Erroneous settings may be set in the scanner, necessitating repair work.
Be sure to read “Precautions” in the Handheld Computer Operating Instructions.

First-time Operation
After finishing the”First-time Operation” of Operating Instructions, install the driver
for Barcode Scanner using the following procedure.
Install the driver for Barcode Scanner
If the [PanaBCI] file is not inside the [Options] folder in [My Computer], perform all steps
from (1) to (7).
If the [PanaBCI] file is present, perform steps (4) through (7).
(1)Tap [Start]-[Run] in order, then input “ffrestore.exe r”, and then tap [OK].
The driver for Barcode Scanner will be copied from the Flash memory to the [Options]
folder in [My Computer].
(2)When [Complete] is displayed, press
* Varies depending on the models.
(3)Double-tap [My Computer], and then double-tap the [Options] folder.
(4)Double-tap [PanaBCI].
A screen will be displayed specifying the install destination folder.
(5)Tap [OK].
(6)When [Setup Complete] is displayed, tap [OK].
(7)Push the reset switch using the stylus.
* or * .
NOTE
Once the power switch has been pressed, you must wait at least 10 seconds before pressing it again.

Supplementary Instructions
Setting for Barcode Scanner
(1)Tap [Start]-[Settings]-[Control Panel] and then double-tap [Barcode Scanner]
(2)If necessary, tap the tab and adjust the settings.
To display a hidden tab, tap the on the right edge of the tab.
[Keyboard Emulation]: Determines whether or not scanned barcode data is targeted for key
emulation.
[Laser]: Laser mode setting
[Decode Format]: [Prefix/Suffix data format] and [code ID Data format] settings
[Code Type Option]: Code type option settings
[Code Type]: Select valid code type(s). Items showing check marks are valid items.
[Button]: To scan barcodes by pressing the trigger on either side of the com-
[BEEP]: Set whether to emit a “beep” sound when the barcode scan is success-
(3)Tap [OK].
[Raster Height] and [Raster Speed] can only be set when [Always Raster] and [Programmable Raster] have been selected.
In [The irradiation time of the laser], set the length of time before laser
irradiation stops in the event that the barcode scan is unsuccessful.
To add Check Digit Codes, tap [OPEN DIALOG BOX].
puter, set [Trigger Enable/Disable] to [Enable].
When triggers are not used for scanning, select one of the following:
F1 button, F2 button, F3 button, or option button.
ful.
NOTE
Close the [Barcode Scanner] settings screen when scanning a barcode.
Even if you perform “All Reset” on this computer, settings for [Laser], [Decode Format], [Code Type Option], and [Code Type] items will not return to their default settings.
To return these items to their default settings, tap the [Version] tab, and then tap the [Set
Default] button.

Scanning Barcodes
Aim the scanner at the barcode.

2 Press one of the trigger buttons on either side
of the computer.
If the barcode scan application software has been set for use
with F1, F2, F3, or option buttons (using [Start]-[Settings][Control Panel]-[Barcode Scanner]-[Button]), press the button assigned for this function (
the Handheld Computer Operating Instructions).
The red scan beam for reading is emitted from the scanning
window. Make sure the red scan beam covers the entire barcode.
NOTE
It is impossible to scan a barcode for 5 or 6 seconds after turning on the computer
because the barcode scanner is being initialized.
To Correctly Read a Barcode with This Computer, Observe the Following.
The scanning angle is a very important factor. The scanner may be unable to correctly
read a barcode if it is directly perpendicular to the barcode and the red scan beam is
reflected back into the scanner. Perform reading at the angle indicated in the figure. Set at
a 15
°
angle from the perpendicular position.
Right Wrong
“Program Buttons” in
Press trigger button.
ENGLISH
Perform scanning so that the red scan beam for reading intersects the barcode itself (including at least 12.7 mm {1/2"} beyond each edge of the barcode).
Right
Hold the scanner farther away when reading a larger barcode, and closer in when reading
a smaller barcode or a thinner barcode.

Supplementary Instructions
Scanning PDF417 (2D) Barcodes
The 2-Dimensional terminal supports PDF417 barcode reading. It produces a raster pattern
featuring multiple scanning rows to accommodate the multiple rows of a PDF417 symbol.
(Only for 2D barcode model)
1 Aim the scanner at the PDF417 barcode.
2 Press one of the trigger buttons on either side of the computer.
If the barcode scan application software has been set for use with F1, F2, F3, or option buttons
(using [Start]-[Settings]-[Control Panel]-[Barcode Scanner]-[Button]), press the button assigned for this function (
tions).
The red scan beam for reading is emitted from the scanning window. Make sure the red
scan beam covers the entire barcode.
Read the previous page for precautions when performing reading with the scanner.
“Program Buttons” in the Handheld Computer Operating Instruc-
3 Hold the button down and keep the scan pattern parallel to the symbol’s
rows.
Be sure the scan pattern extends at least 12.7 mm {1/2"} beyond each edge of the barcode.
"Tall" PDF Barcodes
If the vertical scan pattern is not high enough to cover a “tall” PDF417 symbol, try a slow up
and down scanning motion. With the raster pattern open, move the scanner slowly down
towards the bottom of the symbol, keeping the beam horizontal to the rows, and then slowly
back up towards the top.

Troubleshooting
When reinstalling the driver
for Barcode Scanner, “File
Write Error” is displayed.
A message indicating insufficient memory appears
while scanning.
Scanning is not possible.
It is impossible to scan a
barcode even if the trigger
button is pressed.
Check if the computer memory is full. If it is full, de-
lete unnecessary files.
Check if the [Options] folder in [My Computer] has
been deleted. If it has been deleted, recreate the [Op-
tions] folder in [My Computer] as follows:
(1) Double tap [My Computer], tap [File], and then tap
[New Folder].
(2) Input “Options” for new folder name.
Free memory of at least two times the scan data is necessary.
Confirm that the scanning application has been in-
stalled.
Confirm that the barcode is readable (without damage,
etc.)
Confirm the range for scanning
Be sure the scanner is programmed to read the type of
barcode you are scanning.
The distance from the scanner to the barcode is impor-
tant. As a rule of thumb, a farther distance should be
used for a larger symbol to allow the raster pattern to
cover the symbol. In addition, a closer distance should
be used for a thinner symbol.
If the laser beam is not emitted even after the button is
pressed, confirm the remaining battery level.
Confirm that the trigger button is active on the [Button]
tab under [Barcode] on the [Control Panel].
