Introduction

Worth Data RF Lasers have the following features:

1) A range of up to 500 feet (line-of-sight) with collision detection and retry logic built in. Indoor range will

vary depending on wall construction type, number of walls and other obstructions between the RF Laser and USB Base Station receiver.

2) Up to ten 1D RF Lasers can communicate with one USB Base Station receiver. One 2D RF Laser can

communicate with one USB Base Station receiver. You cannot mix 1D and 2D RF Lasers on a single USB Base Station receiver.

3) The USB Base Station receiver will enumerate as a keyboard so all scanned data will be input to the PC as

keyboard data. The USB Base Station receiver will work on any computer that supports a USB keyboard (PC, Mac, Linux, etc.).

4) The USB Base Station receiver can optionally be configured to enumerate as a serial device (COM port)

using USB-CDC.

5) The RF Laser operates in the 2400 MHz band similar to WiFi and Bluetooth devices but on narrower

channels to avoid interference.

6) The RF Laser can read and discriminate between Code 39, Full ASCII Code 39, Interleaved 2 of 5,

Codabar, Code 128, EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-E, UPC-E1, UPC-A, MSI, LabelCode4, LabelCode5, Code 93 and Plessey.

7) The RF Laser has a rechargeable lithium ion battery. The battery is recharged with the included 5v power

supply. Recharge time on fully a discharged battery is about 3 hours.

Installation

Components of RF Laser Readers

In the event the shipping box shows damage on arrival, please note the damage on the carrier's receipt log.

The standard contents of your reader shipment are the following:

1. One or more RF Laser scanners.

2. USB Base Station receiver.

3. A Worth Data regulated 5V power supply to charge the RF Laser Scanner. TO PREVENT DAMAGING

THE RF LASER, DO NOT USE ANY OTHER BRAND OF POWER SUPPLY.

4. A CD with the user’s manual and setup sheet pdf files.

RF Laser Battery Charging

Before using the RF Laser it is a good idea to fully charge the battery. Simply plug the Worth Data charger into the base of the RF Laser handle. The red LED should turn on to indicate that the battery is being charged. If the red LED does not light then either the battery is already fully charged or the battery or charger is defective. It takes about 3 hours to fully charge the battery. The 1D RF Laser will read about 30,000 bar codes per charge and the 2D RF Laser will read about 15,000 bar codes per charge.

If you pull the trigger and the LED is RED instead of YELLOW during scanning then the battery is below 10% and will need to be charged soon.

USB Base Station Receiver Installation

You can plug the USB Base Station receiver into any USB port on your computer. The USB Base Station will automatically be sensed and the driver installation will begin. Windows can usually find the necessary driver on the hard drive under /Windows/System 32/Drivers; occasionally you will have to insert the original Windows CD. The Mac always finds the driver. In either case, the driver used is the standard USB keyboard driver. No special drivers are required. The LED on the USB Base Station will turn red during enumeration then turn green after successful USB-HID keyboard enumeration.

You can toggle the USB Base Station enumeration between USB-HID (keyboard) and USB-CDC (com port) by pressing and holding the button on the USB Base Station for 6 seconds. After about 2 seconds the LED will blink red 3 times. Continue to hold the button down until the LED blinks green 3 times then release the button. Your computer should report “New hardware found” and ask for a driver. An INF file is included on the supplied driver CD that will install the necessary drivers. The LED on the USB Base Station will turn red during enumeration then turn yellow after successful USB-CDC enumeration.

The interface type (keyboard or com port) is stored in the USB Base Station receiver so if you unplug the receiver or power cycle your computer the receiver will maintain the interface type.

USB-CDC operation is supported under Windows XP, Vista and 7 for both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

If you mistakenly abort your driver installation, see the Trouble Shooting Section of this manual.

Page 8

Pairing

The default state of the RF Laser is un-paired. You must pair the RF Laser to the USB Base Station receiver that you wish it to communicate with. You can pair the RF Laser with any USB Base Station receiver but it

can only be paired with one at a time. Briefly press the button on the USB Base Station receiver until you see the LED blink 3 times then release the button. This will put the receiver into pairing mode for 60 seconds. Scan the “PAIR” bar code with the RF Laser that you wish to pair with the receiver. The LED on the RF Laser will turn blue while it is pairing with the receiver. Once paired, the RF Laser will beep and the LED will turn off. If pairing fails the RF Laser will beep and the LED will blink 5 times then turn off. The RF Laser will remain paired to the paired receiver until it is paired with a different receiver. Scanning Start Setup, Reset, End Setup will not reset the pairing. You can pair up to ten 1D RF Lasers with one 1D USB Base Station receiver.

The RF Laser can be programmed with an ID preamble if your application needs to know which RF Laser the data is from. For example, you can set the preamble to “shipping” or “receiving” or just “5” to identify incoming data. On the Setup Menu first scan Start Setup then Preamble then up to 15 characters from the full ASCII chart then SET followed by End Setup. Refer to page 57 for information on how to setup the 2D RF Laser preamble.

It is best to pair the 2D RF Laser and the Base before changing the setup of the 2D RF Laser scanner. Some settings that modify the contents of the scanned bar code (like preamble, postamble, substitution, etc.) can cause the 2D RF Laser to no longer pair with the Base. It won’t affect the existing pairing but it might not allow the 2D RF Laser to pair with a different Base until it is reset to factory default settings.

RF Laser Status

The status of the scanner can be displayed on the multicolor LED by either scanning the Status bar code on the setup sheet or by holding down the trigger for 10 seconds when no data is stored in the scanner.

The LED will blink red to indicate the status of the battery, one blink for each 10% of current battery capacity. If the battery is currently at 40% capacity then the LED will blink 4 times.

This is a handy way to determine the status of a scanner without using the Setup Menu.

If you would like a complete status report for all setup parameters you must first pair the RF Laser with a USB Base Station receiver then scan the Transmit Setup barcode from the Setup Menu. The RF Laser will transmit all the setup parameters to the paired receiver which will output them to the connected computer.

When the battery is below 10% the LED will turn RED instead of YELLOW while scanning to alert the user that the battery will need to be charged soon.

Range Test

Scanning the Range Test bar code on the setup sheet will put the RF Laser into Range Test mode. In this mode, the RF Laser will continuously transmit test packets to the USB Base Station receiver which will echo them back. The RF Laser generates a high pitched tone when it transmits the test packet and a low pitched tone when it receives the confirmation. You can put the RF Laser into this mode and test the range of the RF Laser system to see if you have good coverage. If not, try moving the USB Base Station receiver to a different location or using a USB dock to elevate the USB Base Station receiver.

Page 9

Operational Modes

Normal Operation

When you scan, you will get one high pitched beep when you get a successful decode. The data is then transmitted to the USB Base Station receiver (as it is being transmitted, the LED turns blue). When the Laser receives the acknowledgement from the Base Station that the data has been received, the RF Laser emits a lower pitched beep and turns on a green LED.

If the transmitted data fails to be acknowledged,

1) Further scanning is prohibited. You can't scan again until the data reaches the base or you clear the

scanner.

2) The laser will retransmit three times, (the yellow LED will indicate retransmissions) each time the

trigger is pulled.

3) If the transmission fails three times, the RF Laser will emit a distinct 8 beep pattern and turn off.

The scanned data is saved in the memory of the RF Laser until it is successfully transmitted to the Base or deleted by the user. Check out the Base Station or move closer.

4) You can clear the pending data transmission by holding down the trigger on the RF Laser Scanner

for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, the data from the last scan will be deleted and the RF Laser Scanner will be able to scan bar codes again.

Power Modes

The 1D RF Laser goes into a low-power standby mode when the trigger is released. In this mode, all the components of the scanner are powered but in standby to provide a snappy response when the trigger is pulled. A fully charged battery will last approximately three weeks in this mode if it is not charged sooner. If you wish to completely power-down the 1D RF Laser then scan the bar code below. Any trigger pull after scanning the below bar code will wake up the scanner and put it into standby mode. When waking up from the power down state, there is a delay of about 2 seconds for RF transmission. Only the first scan is delayed.

The 2D RF Laser will automatically power down after sitting idle for 15 minutes. Any trigger pull will wake up the scanner and put it into standby mode. When waking up from the power down state, there is a delay of about 2 seconds for scanning and about 2 seconds for RF transmission. Only the first scan is delayed.

Power-down does not affect pairing or stored setup parameters.

1D Setup Mode

Note: If you are using the 2D 520-RF then refer to the 2D setup chart starting on page 21.

On the included CD-ROM you will find the RF Laser Setup Menu sheet. This simple menu lets you easily configure the RF Laser Reader to work with almost any computer system, and to tailor its bar code reading and data format characteristics.

Be sure to read the scanning instructions on the next page. To read Setup Menu bar codes and configure your reader, you must know the right way to scan bar codes.

These are the RF Laser Reader's default settings and are shipped configured to these settings; they can be reset to them at any time by scanning the Start Setup and Reset codes on the RF Laser Setup Menu.

If you need to change any of the default settings, or would like to learn more about the Wireless scanner options, the next several pages will explain, step by step, how to set them.

Page 11

Laser Scanning Instructions

Using a laser scanner is basically as simple and intuitive as "point and shoot" at a distance of 0-24", depending on the density of the bar code.

Basically, the laser scanner's beams must cross every bar and space on the bar code, without touching any other bar codes, as shown in the first example below. You'll need to hold the scanner further away to produce a wider beam for large bar codes, and closer for bar codes with bars very close together.

Even though momentary exposure to a laser's low-power, visible-light is not known to be harmful, you should not aim the beam into anyone's eyes.

The important thing to remember about using a laser with the RF Laser Reader Setup Menu is that you need to make sure the scanner's beam covers only one bar code at a time. The laser scanner's beam is wide enough, and the configuration bar codes close together enough that you will need to use your fingers or a few pieces of note paper to "block off" bar codes adjacent to whatever configuration bar code you need to read.

For example, to read this "5" bar code on the Setup Menu, you would need to cover any adjacent bar codes with paper or a finger first, as shown.

Page 12

Using The 1D RF Laser Setup Menu

Note: If you are using the 2D 520-RF then refer to the 2D setup chart starting on page 24.

1. To configure your reader using the RF Laser Setup Menu, you must first scan the Start Setup code at the

top left corner. Do this now. You'll hear two beeps. During Setup, nothing will be transmitted to your computer; the Reader Setup Menu codes are strictly for configuring the reader. If you did not hear two beeps, try scanning the code again, until you hear the two beeps. If you've never scanned bar codes before, read the scanning instructions on page 6 before continuing. The scanner LED will turn green when in setup mode.

2. Next, choose the setting you want to change an option for and scan its code. You will hear 2 beeps each

time you read a setup barcode.

3. Then, choose the option you want to change, from the list next to the setting bar code you just scanned.

Using the "Barpad Table" on the right side of the Reader Setup Menu, scan the number or letter associated with the option you have selected to change. Some settings (like Preamble and Postamble) require the SET barcode to terminate a string entry but most are single character.

4. Now scan End Setup (at the top-right corner of the Reader Setup Menu to complete the setup. You'll hear

three beeps.

The next several pages will show you all of the various Wireless Reader options. Default settings are shown in bold in this manual and marked with an * on the Reader Setup Menu.

Code 3 of 9 (Code 39)

See page 20 for information about Accumulate Mode (this setting also controls Code 93 and Code 128).

Enabling Start/Stop character transmission means that the RF Laser Reader will transmit the * Start/Stop characters to your computer along with the data. For example, data of 1234 would be transmitted as *1234*.

Enabling the Mod 43 Check Digit requires the units position of your data to match the calculation for the

check digit explained in Appendix C.

If you've enabled the check digit, enabling Check Digit transmission causes the reader to transmit it to your computer along with the bar code data.

"Caps Lock ON" means that for all codes lower case letters read as data will be transmitted as upper case, and upper case as lower. Numbers, punctuation & control characters are not affected. This applies to Code 128 and Code 93 also.

"Caps Lock OFF" means that letters will be transmitted exactly as read.

UPC/EAN

Enabling supplements allows you to read 2 and 5-digit supplemental codes used with magazines and

paperbacks. This disallows right-to-left reading of UPC codes, to assure that the supplement doesn't get skipped.

Use setting 2 to enable reading of the 2 and 5 digit UPC/EAN supplements commonly found on magazines and paperback books. Use this setting to force left to right reading of UPC codes, assuring that the supplement code is not missed. This This setting also allows for reading of the UCC/EAN 128 Extended Coupon Code. The Extended Coupon Code consists of a UPC code with a NSC of 5 or and EAN code with a country code of 99 along with a C0de 128 supplemental code to the right. This setting allows you to read the Code 128 supplement with the UPC/EAN, providing the UPC has a NSC of 5 or the EAN code has a country code of 99. Without the correct NSC or country code, the Code 128 portion will be ignored; UPC code with an NSC of 5 or EAN codes with country code of 99 will not be read unless there is a readable Code 128 supplemental code read also.

UPC-E Compressed Format transmits UPC-E codes as is; Expanded Format adds zeros to make them the same length as UPC-A.

UPC-E can be used in either normal UPC-E format (implicit NSC of 0) or UPC-E1 format (NSC of 1). UPC- E1 is enabled by scanning 2 of 5 Code and 8 (9 disables UPC-E1). It is very easy to partially read EAN-13 as UPC-E1, so don't enable UPC-E1 if reading EAN-13.

If you wish to transmit UPC-A data in EAN-13 format, (an added leading 0 for the USA's country code), scan Terminator Character and F. Scanning E, the default, sets UPC back to no country code transmitted.

ISBN, International Standard Book Numbering, bar codes are EAN-13 codes with a 5 digit supplement. If the first three digits are the "Bookland" country codes of 978 for books or 977 for periodicals, then you can enable transmission of EAN-13 bar codes in the ISBN format. Suppose you scan an EAN-13 with 5-digit supplement which is a bar code of 978055337062153495. It would be transmitted in ISBN format as 0553370626 (as of Jan.1, 2006, the correct ISBN format is the EAN-13 bar code with the 5 digit supplement). 055337062 are the first nine digits of the ISBN format, and 6 is the newly calculated Mod-11 check digit.

To enable the transmission of the ISBN format, scan Terminator Character and D. Scanning C, the default, disables conversion to ISBN format back to regular EAN-13 format.

Enabling the Check Digit requires the data’s unit’s position to match the calculation for the check digit. If

you've enabled the check digit, enabling Check Digit transmission causes the reader to transmit it to your computer along with the bar code data.

2 of 5 Data Length

2 of 5 Code is so susceptible to interpreting partial scans as valid reads that the Radio/Freedom Reader

uses fixed-length data as a safeguard. To choose a data length, scan it as a two-digit number using the Barpad Table. For example, to select 8-digit data length, you would scan a 0 and then an 8. Because Interleaved 2 of 5 is required to be an even number of digits in length, you must use an even number. If you're unsure of your bar code length, temporarily set the length to 00, read a bar code, and count its digits and then set it to the actual length. DO NOT PERMANENTLY SET THE 2 of 5 LENGTH TO 00 or you will get

misreads!

Note: If you are using the 2D 520-RF then refer to the 2D setup chart starting on page 24.

Terminator characters

Depending on your application, you may wish your Wireless Reader to transmit bar code data to your computer with an Enter (carriage return), a Tab at the end, or with no extra terminating character at all.

If you need a terminator character other than CR or HT or CR/LF, you can get it by specifying None here and then selecting your desired terminator character(s) specified in the Postamble.

Preamble

A "Preamble" is a user-specified data string transmitted at the beginning of each bar code. For example, if you specify the preamble @@ and read data of 123456, "@@123456" would be transmitted to your computer. The Preamble applies to the scanner, not the base station because there may be multiple scanners per base.

The default is no preamble. To select a preamble, scan up to 15 characters from the "FULL ASCII MENU" on the back of the Reader Setup Menu, and then scan SET when you're done. To return to the no preamble setting, scan Clear here instead of scanning SET or any characters from the FULL ASCII MENU. You can trim 1-15 leading characters from bar code codes by scanning a ~ (tilde -- ASCII 126) followed by a single digit, 1 through F, as part of the Preamble. (Bar codes that are shorter than the amount-to-trim are transmitted with no trimming.) Consider the examples in the following table to understand how trimming works:

You can also trim selectively by bar code type. For example, you can trim 2 characters from Code 39 and a different amount from other bar code outputs. This is done by using the bar code ID character in conjunction with the tilde (~). A preamble of ~b2~c1 says trim 2 characters from the front of Code 39 output and trim 1 character from the front of UPC-A. Refer to the Code 128 parameter on page 13 for a list of the ID character associated with each bar code type.

A final use of the Preamble/Postamble is to enter a minimum/maximum length check for bar code data read. Use the Preamble or Postamble by entering |nnmm where "|" is ASCII 124, "nn" is the two digit minimum to be read and "mm" is the two digit maximum to be read.

Note: If you are using the 2D 520-RF then refer to the 2D setup chart starting on page 24.

Postamble

"Postamble" refers to a user-specified data string transmitted at the end of each bar code. For instance, if you specify the postamble @@ and read data of 123456, "123456@@" would be transmitted to your computer.

The default is no postamble. To select a postamble, scan up to 15 characters from the "FULL ASCII MENU" on the back of the Reader Setup Menu, and then scan SET when you're done. To return to the no postamble setting, scan CLEAR here instead of scanning SET or any characters from the FULL ASCII MENU.

You can trim 1-15 trailing characters from bar code codes by scanning a ~ (tilde -- ASCII 126) followed by a single hex digit, 1 through F. (Bar codes which are shorter than the amount-to-trim are transmitted without trimming.) Consider the examples in the following table to understand the options of the Postamble:

Bar codes that are shorter than the sum of the Postamble trimming and Preamble trimming will be transmitted without trimming. Selective trimming and min/max bar code data is also supported through Postamble specifications, (See

Preamble above for complete details).

Characters

This setup option allows you to output ASCII characters different from the ones scanned.

For example: Suppose you want to output a hex 92 character every time you scan a 1 (hex 31); you want to remap hex 31 to hex 92, (If you're using 8 data bits, output of 80-F8 codes is possible.)

1) Scan the Start Setup Bar Code

2) Scan the Characters Bar Code on the Setup Sheet.

3) Scan 3 1 and 9 2 to output hex 92 when reading a "1".

4) Scan up to 7 other pairs of character reassignments.

5) Scan Set when complete.

6) Scan End Setup to exit setup mode.

Hex values for each character code are shown on the Full ASCII Menu. The equivalent decimal values are also shown for each character.

You can also eliminate characters by reassigning hex codes to FF. For example, to strip all $ (dollar sign) characters from transmission, you would follow the above instructions and scan 2 4 F F in step 3.

Reset

Once you are in the Setup Mode, don't scan Reset unless you're sure you want to restore the RF Laser to its default settings (as described on page 5), erasing all changes you've made.

Page 19

DIFFICULT CODE SETUP OPTIONS (does not apply to 2D RF Laser)

Aiming Laser Dot: (LZ404-RF only) Sometimes it is difficult to see the laser beam and know you are on the bar code, especially if you are attempting to read outdoors in direct sunlight. The laser can be output as a bright dot for a few seconds, allowing the user to place the dot in the middle of the bar code; then the laser beam starts sweeping for the read. As shipped, the laser beam never forms an aiming dot, but you can program a number of seconds that you wish the aiming dot to appear before the beam scans using the following setting:

Scan Start Setup Scan Aiming Dot Duration Scan 1 to select a 1 second aiming dot, or 2 to select a 2 second aiming dot, or 3 to select a 3 second aiming dot, or 4 to select a 4 second aiming dot, or 5 to select a 5 second aiming dot, or 0, the default, to eliminate an aiming dot. Scan End Setup

4-second beam: Another option with problem reading conditions is to increase the length of the time the scanner attempts to read, from the default 2-second beam to a 4-second beam. To select the 4-second beam:

Scan Start Setup Scan 4-Second Beam Scan 1 to select the 4-second beam Scan End Setup

To return to the default 2-second beam, scan 0 instead of 1.

Automobile VIN READING:

There is special support for reading automobile Vehicle Identification Numbers, VIN, remotely from the computer. (CCDs will not read through a windshield, only laser scanners.) You may want to use the aiming dot above too.

"Difficult Code 39 Reading": This feature facilitates reading of the VIN number on automobiles, which is often a difficult-to-read bar code, especially reading through a windshield. VIN numbers are long, often weathered, often dirty, and challenging to read.

To enable the more aggressive Code 39 algorithms necessary to read windshield VINs:

Scan Start Setup Scan Difficult Code 39 Reading Scan 1 for windshield reading Scan End Setup

To return to the default Code 39 decode algorithms, scan 0 instead of 1.

"Double-scan checking": When reading a VIN, you will also want to disable double scan checking. The reader’s default is to not output or beep until it has two successive identical decodes. This is an acceptable safeguard with most codes, but with VIN numbers read through a windshield, you will have to deactivate double scan checking to get timely reads.

Scan Start Setup Scan Double Decode Scan 0 to disable double decode Scan End Setup

To enable double scan checking, scan 1 instead of 0.

Clear Buffer

Accumulate Mode (1D only)

Accumulate Mode is an option (which can be enabled or disabled using the Reader Setup Menu's Code 39 section) allowing the reader to accumulate multiple bar codes in its buffer, then transmit them to the computer as if they had been a single bar code. This is useful for entering quantities and other variable data.

It works with Code 39 only, and can't be used with a check digit. When the reader reads a bar code with a leading space, it beeps and buffers the data without transmission. It continues to read and buffer bar codes (up to 40 characters) until it reads a bar code without a leading space. Then the entire buffer (including that last code) is transmitted as one long bar code. A bar code of a double minus (--) sign clears the buffer. Scanning a backspace code ($H) backspaces in Full ASCII mode. A handy code for Enter (as seen on the "Barpad" below) is a Start/Stop only. (No data.) The code to use for testing the transmission link between the RF Laser Scanner and the RF Base Station is the CLEAR BUFFER code (the same bar code as titled Link Test on the Setup Menu. It will cause beeps to be heard, but no data will be transmitted to the computer -- testing blind with no computer consequence.

This numeric "Barpad" illustrates Accumulate Mode. Scan 5, 3, 8, and Enter. The reader transmits a single message of 538.

Function/Control Key Support

The RF Laser can also transmit key sequences for function, control, alt (command and option keys on Macs), cursor and shift keys, for ease of use with the many software packages using these keys for menus or commands. You can include these codes in other bar codes, or you can scan these “keystrokes” into your Preamble or Postamble in order to add them to every scan from your reader. You must have Full ASCII Code 39 enabled on your reader (this is the default setting). Scan the corresponding bar code (or pairs of codes for Pg Up, Pg Dn, Home, etc) from the Full ASCII menu to emulate the chosen key.

* refers to the keys on the Number pad on the far right side of a PC keyboard. To emulate any of the keys above, scan the appropriate bar code from the FULL ASCII MENU. For example, to emulate the f5 key, scan the ENQ bar code. Simply scan the correct bar code(s) from the FULL ASCII MENU. For example, if the WDP reads the bar code SOH (ASCII 001 -- a control-A) from the FULL ASCII MENU, it will transmit an F1 key.

Shift, Ctrl and Alt keys require three sequences:

1) The ON code generated when the Shift, Ctrl or Alt key is pressed.

2) The other key to be used in conjunction with the Shift, Ctrl or Alt key.

3) OFF code generated when the Shift, Ctrl or Alt key is released.

(For example, to create a Control C bar code: use Control ON, C, and Control OFF. To put Control C in a Preamble or Postamble, scan from the Full ASCII Menu: Control ON, C, and Control OFF).

Function keys F11 and F12

Function keys F11 and F12 require two bar codes to be scanned to make these functions keys. The F11 key is created by combining the Null and SOH. The F12 key is created by combining the Null and the STX.

Windows Key

The Windows key on a Windows keyboard is transmitted by scanning 4 bar codes - NULL and C for Windows On (pressing down) and NULL and D for Windows Off (releasing the key).

Command and Option Keys on Mac USB Keyboards

When you have a WDP Reader attached to a Macintosh Computer's USB port, to emulate the Command key, use the Windows key ON/OFF bar codes NULL, C (Command ON) and NULL, D (Command OFF) For the Option Key ON/OFF use RS (Option On) and US (Option Off).

Transmitting any ASCII character using its 3-digit ASCII code

You can also transmit any ASCII character from 000 to 255 by emulating the PC technique of typing a character's ASCII number on the numeric pad while holding down the Alt key. For example, to transmit ASCII 250, you would scan the bar codes for:

Troubleshooting

All Models Troubleshooting

The beam won’t stay on, or I just get a narrow beam when I pull the trigger, or the scanner won’t turn on when I pull the trigger or the red LED flashes when I pull the trigger.

All of the above problems are an indication that your BATTERY IS TOO LOW. With any of the above

symptoms, recharge the battery in the RF Laser before assuming you have some other kind of problem.

The reader won't beep when reading bar codes

Recheck all the connections. Get close to the Base Station. Try reading the Link Test bar code, following

the steps for scanning on page 6.

If you hear two beeps, but see nothing on the screen, try scanning End Setup.

Reread the configuration section and make sure you properly enabled the bar code types you're trying to

read.

Extra characters at the beginning or end of your bar code data

Clear the Preamble and Postamble.

Poor read rate

Get close to the Base Station and try reading the test label (following the scanning instructions on page

6) as an example of a known good bar code. Examine your bar codes to make sure they have dark bars,

clearly defined bars and white spaces, and a "quiet zone" of at least 1/4 inch to the left and right. If the bars are gray, or so dark that they "bleed" into the white spaces, the person or organization printing them will need to adjust the printer or get a new ribbon or toner cartridge for it.

I get six beeps when the RF Laser powers up.

The unit needs repair. Call for an RMA.

The Orange light stays on the RF Laser Scanner

You are in Setup Mode. Scan End Setup on the Wireless Setup Menu.

You need more range

If you need more range consider using a USB Dock to allow the USB Base Station receiver to be

positioned with better line-of –sight to the RF Laser.

Number of Characters Settings:

If you are going to read bar codes of a known length, it is recommended to set the scanner for a fixed number of characters. The scanner uses this to verify that labels read are of the correct length and reject labels that do not have the specified length. The advantage of setting a fixed length is that it provides protection against short scans of labels, such as Interleaved 2of 5, which do not provide sufficient security against partial scans. The length check is done on the label data and is not affected by options such as (not) transmit start/stop

character or check digit. Setting the number or characters does not affect fixed length codes, such as EAN-13.

It is also possible to set the minimum and maximum number of characters allowed. The character length

settings can be global (applying to all enabled codes) or individual (applying only to selected code types).

Character Length Settings:

Fixed Length Example Programming Sequence:

1) Scan “Start Setup”

2) Scan “Fixed Length ON” (global or individual)

3) Scan a bar code of the desired length

4) Scan another bar code of a second desired length (optional)

5) Scan “End Setup”

If you scan “global” fixed length then all enabled codes will be affected. If you scan “individual” fixed

length then only the symbology scanned in step 3 and/or 4 is affected. Note: The maximum number of characters that can be set is 8000.

Read Mode Settings Continued:

Since WPC-type codes (UPC, EAN) with add-on (supplements) have a high probability of unsuccessful decoding, the scanner repeats decoding the add-on code during the specified period of time. It is effective to read the add-on parts, but it will also cause a reduced response when a code without an add-on is read.

Note: Normally laser ranging is used for reading labels. In case it cannot be used in a brightly-lit

environment, the contrast method is used. When “contrast only” is configured, the reading speed will be

slower.
