1. How to use this guide
This document provides an easy reference for installing and operating IDM
Scanners. A complete documentation for IDM Scanner is provided by the IDM
User’s Guide available on the Internet at http://www.sick.com
Eine deutsche Version der Kurzanleitung steht auf www.sick.com zur
Verfügung – for german version of quick start, check www.sick.com.
The document contains a collection of codes that allow you to configure the
IDM hand held readers. Factory default values are marked with a ◆ symbol.
To configure the device scan one or in some cases a sequence of codes. In
some cases you also need to scan option codes contained in the back of this
quick start guide. Depending on the parameter you also need to convert the
values into hex. A hex/ascii table is included in this document. The
programming procedure has to be ended by scanning the “FIN (finish) and/or
“END” code.
Example one scan configuration:
Operation Mode-just scan the code corresponding to the operation mode
required.
Example several codes configuration (without hex/ascii conversion):
Keyboard country-to configure french keyboard country scan “PROGRAMM”
code to enter programming mode. Afterwards scan keyboard country code,
and then scan option code “0” and option code “1”. End this procedure by
scanning the “END” code.
Example several codes configuration (with hex/ascii conversion):
Preamble-to configure a preamble of “PR” scan the “PROGRAMM” code,
then preamble code. Afterwards scan option code “5” and option code “0”
(50hex is standing for character P) followed by “5” and “2” (52hex is standing
for character R). Then finish by scanning the “FIN” code. To set back
preamble to none scan “PROGRAMM”, “Preamble”, “FIN” and then “END”
code.

4. IDM Set Up Tool Software
The IDM Set Up Tool is a Windows based configuration software for IDM
scanners. You can download the IDM Set up software for free on
www.sick.com. For detailed description how to do configuration with IDM Set
Up Tool please look at the IDM user guide.
5. Connecting/Disconnecting cable
IDM Hand Held Scanners provide PS/2(DOS/V) Keyboard Wedge, RS-232
TTL Serial and USB interfaces capability. To disconnect the cable, please
straighten one end of a paper clip, then insert into the cable release hole and
press in. After that, you can release the cable and pull the cable out easily.
For IDMx60 series you need to push down the bracket of the enclosure clip
and pull out the cable.

6. Connecting host interface
IDM Hand Held Scanners have capability to connect different host devices by
PS/2(DOS/V) Keyboard Wedge, RS-232 Serial and USB interfaces. Please
choose one of the interface cables to connect your host device by referring to
the illustrations below.
PS/2(DOS/V) Keyboard Wedge
RS232 Serial
USB HID & USB COM
USB HID (Human Interface Device)
The scanner works as a generic USB keyboard.
USB COM Port Emulation
The scanner works as a legacy RS232 serial device. You have to install the
USB COM software driver (available on www.sick.com) before using.
Note: If USB devices are not connected as USB HID (human interface
device) but as VCP (virtual com port), Windows API does not control the
connection and does not
perform automatic re-connections in case of
connection
losses. Connection control management has to be realized
within the application software which is using the com port as data input
source (e.g. within driver access layer).
