NTRODUCTION

Your new scanner has been configured at the factory with default settings.

Since many host systems have unique formats and protocol requirements,
Unitech provides a wide range of configurable features that may be selected
using this bar code based configuration tool. Once the configuration is
completed, the scanner stores the settings in nonvolatile memory (NOVRAM).
NOVRAM saves the settings when the power is turned off.

Every bar code with an asterisk ( * ) is a default setting.
Bar codes with a tilde ( ~ ) require the Multi-Code configuration method.

B

AR CODE CONFIGURATION METHODS

Single-Code Method

Most features can be enabled or disabled using the Single-Code Method.

1. Power up the scanner.

2. Scan the bar code for the desired feature.

Observe a multi-toned, “save setting” beep that indicates the configuration has
been saved to NOVRAM.

Multi-Code Method

All features can be enabled or disabled using the Multi-Code Method.
A feature marked with a tilde ( ~ ) requires the Multi-Code Method.

1. Power up the scanner.

2. Scan the enter/exit configuration mode bar code (3 beeps).

3. Scan the bar code for the desired feature (1 beep).

Multiple features can be enabled/disabled before
scanning the enter/exit configuration mode bar code.

4. Scan the enter/exit configuration mode bar code (3 beeps) and

save the new configuration.

To abort a configuration change, power off the scanner before
scanning the enter/exit code.

CANNER OPERATION

Omnidirectional and/or Linear Scanner Modes

The unit can be configured to operate as an omnidirectional scanner, or a linear
scanner, or a combination of both. Trigger and presentation operations can be
configured separately for Omnidirectional and Linear scan modes.

• When configured to operate as an omnidirectional scanner, all 1D and

2D barcodes are scanned omnidirectionally (except Code 128 scanner
configuration labels, which have to be linearly aligned for successful
scanning).

• When configured to operate as a linear scanner, the 1D barcodes have

to be linearly aligned for successful scanning while the 2D barcodes
cannot be scanned.

• When configured to operate as both the linear and omnidirectional
scanner, the 1D barcodes have to be linearly aligned for successful

scanning while the 2D barcodes are scanned omnidirectionally.

By default, the scanner is configured to omnidirectional scanning for trigger and
presentation operations

These bar codes can be used to disable the transmission of the ISBT Code 128
data identifiers. When this option is selected, the first two data characters are
removed from the data stream (ID characters) unless the ISBT bar code scanned
contains the Donation Identification Number identifiers. In this instance only the
first ID character is removed from the Donation ID Number. The second is
regarded as normal data.

When this feature is enabled, Aztec barcodes with a structured append header will be
stored in the scanner’s memory buffer. The scanner will transmit the concatenated
message once every component of the structured append barcode has been read. Up
to 16 components can be stored.

If this feature is disabled, Aztec barcodes with structured append header will be
read as normal Aztec barcodes. However, in this case, the structured append
header will be sent as part of the barcode data.

Code Select and structured append features cannot be used
concurrently. If both CodeSelect and structured append are enabled,
CodeSelect feature will not work.

The CodeSelect timeout setting determines how much time will be
allowed between individual components of the same barcode
(similar to CodeSelect operation).

By default, the scanner will emit an intermediate beep when each component is
scanned. When only one scan buffer is enabled, the user will be required to release the
trigger after reading each barcode component.

* Enable Intermediate Beep Disable Intermediate Beep

³100611

If the “intermediate beep” is disabled and the number of scan buffers is
increased – all components of a structured append barcode can be read
with a single trigger activation, and only one audible beep will be
produced, as if a regular barcode was scanned.

ONGITUDINAL REDUNDANCY CHECK

A Longitudinal Redundancy Check (LRC) is an error checking character that is
calculated across a sequence of data characters. It is determined by eXclusive
ORing (XOR) the characters to be checked, starting with an initial value of 00H.

The result, an “LRC byte” is then transmitted following the data stream and used
by the receiving computer to determine if the information was received correctly.
In the scanner’s case, XOR is performed prior to adding parity bits.

When the LRC is enabled, the scanner defaults to starting the LRC on the
second byte of information transmitted. Optionally, the calculation can start on
the first byte transmitted.

ONTROL SETS

In general, standard bar code symbologies will only encode the ASCII character
set. Function keys, arrow keys and many other extended keys on an IBM
compatible keyboard do not translate to ASCII characters. One method of ‘bar
coding’ the extended keys is to substitute the extended key codes when a
specific ASCII control character is found in the bar code stream. The Control
Sets are specific translations of the ASCII (HEX) set.

ODE BYTES USAGE

The features that use these code bytes for configuration require that the

scanner be in Configuration Mode. The Enter/Exit Configuration Mode bar
code (on page 2) must be scanned before starting the configuration cycle.

Example: User configurable prefix/suffix characters can be saved into the scanner by

scanning the 3 digit decimal equivalent of the ASCII character into the
appropriate character location with the code byte bar codes.

To add an Asterisk (*) as a Prefix scan the following bar codes in order.

1. Enter/Exit Configuration Mode (3 beeps)

2. Configurable Prefix #1 (1 beep)

3. Code Byte 0 (1 beep)

4. Code Byte 4 (2 beeps)

5. Code Byte 2 (3 beeps)
