Introduction

The Worth Data RF Laser has the following features:

1) The LZ400-RF Laser Scanner

a range of up to 500 feet (open area) and has collision detect and retry logic built within. The LZ400-RF Laser communicates with the B78 Base Station. The Base Station communicates with a host PC through the USB port or a RS-232 Serial Port. Up to ten LZ-400 RF Lasers can communicate with one B78 Base Station.

2) If you use the USB interface, data is transmitted as keyboard data. If you use the serial interface instead, serial data is transmitted to one of the computer's COM ports.

3) The USA LZ400-RF Laser and Base operate in the 902MHz band. The laser and base radios operate by "frequency hopping" spread spectrum. The radios hop from one frequency to another every 400ms. The radio goes through 25 different frequencies and then repeats the sequence – all in the 902 MHz band at 15 milliwatts (10 dBm) of power. Different sequences define the channels. It is possible to have up to ten RF Lasers/Base Stations in the same area, providing each pair is on separate channels to avoid interference and general confusion. The RF Laser can also operate in the same room as the 701 RF Terminal.

4) The R/F Laser can read and discriminate between Code 39, Full ASCII Code 39, Interleaved 2 of 5, Codabar, Code 128, EAN-13, EAN-8, UPCE, UPC-E1, UPC-A, MSI, LabelCode4, LabelCode5, Code 93 and Plessey.

5) The RF Laser has a rechargeable lithium ion battery. The battery is recharged with the included F10 5v power supply. Recharge time on fully discharged batteries is 3 hours. Do NOT use any other power supply to charge your laser.

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 supposed contents of your Reader shipment is the following:

1. An B78 RF Base Station with 1-10 LZ400-RF Lasers.

2. A Worth Data regulated 5V power supply with each LZ400-RF Laser Scanner ordered, and if you ordered a serial cable with the B78 Base Station, you will receive a power supply for the Base also. TO

PREVENT DAMAGING the Base Station or RF Laser, DON'T USE ANY OTHER BRAND OF POWER SUPPLIES.

3. Either a serial cable (F36) or USB cable (C21), depending on which one you ordered.

4. A plastic barpad for entering variable quantity information and performing the Link Test without data transmission.

Scanner Beeps and LEDs (what they mean)

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

If the transmitted data fails to be acknowledged,

1) further scanning is prohibited. You can't pull the trigger again until the data reaches the base or until you clear the scanner.

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

3) If it fails three times, it will emit a distinct 8 beep pattern and turn off. This is your clue to check out the Base Station.

4) You can pull the trigger to try transmission again. (the laser beam will not come on until the transmission is acknowledged or you hold the trigger down for 30 seconds to clear the data).

USB Installation

USB attachment does not require the Worth Data F10 5v power supply for the B78 Base Station. If for some reason your USB port or hub does not have enough power to operate the Base Station correctly, you may use our F10 power supply, but you must plug it in AFTER you have powered up on the USB cable only. The Base Station will power up with 3 more flashes than the channel setting; i.e. if it is set on Channel 0, it will flash green three times. If the Channel were set to 7, it would flash green 10 times.

Once you connect the B78 Base Station to the computer using the supplied USB cable, the Base Station should be sensed automatically by the computer 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 keyboard driver. No special drivers are required.

You should be connected as below:

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

For testing, bring up Notepad or WordPad on your computer and scan the TEST LABEL on page 21. Now turn to page 7.

Installing the R/F Reader with a dedicated serial port

The Base Station can be directly attached to a spare serial port as shown below. This configuration requires the Worth Data F10 5v power supply for powering the Base Station. Upon power-up, the Base Station LED will flash with 3 more flashes than the channel setting; i.e. if it is set on Channel 0, it will flash green three times. If the Channel were set to 7, it would flash green 10 times.

Your software will need to read the serial port as a separate device, unless you're using an IBM-compatible computer and Worth Data’s PortKey software, which makes serial-port data appear as though it had been typed at the keyboard. You can also use the WDR Test Utility to test communication with your com port.

If you specified a 25-pin null-modem cable (part number F34) or a 9-pin cable (part number F36) when you placed your order, you can cable directly from the RF/Reader's Y-Cable port to your computer's serial port. Refer to page 6 for the details of the pin-outs of the cables.

Turn to page 7 to configure the RF Laser Reader using the Setup Menu.

Installing the R/F Reader between a computer and terminal

If you attach the s Base between your computer and a terminal, as shown below, using Cable Selection F45-1, bar code data will be sent to the computer as if it had been typed on that terminal. Refer to page 8 for the details of the pin-outs for each connector on the cable. You will also need to change jumpers (JP2 on the RF Base) on the board inside the case from the “S” position to the “Y” position.

This configuration requires the Worth Data F10 5v power supply for powering the Base Station. Upon power-up, the Base Station LED will flash with 3 more flashes than the channel setting; i.e. if it is set on Channel 0, it will flash green three times. If the Channel were set to 7, it would flash green 10 times.

Cables may require modification, depending on the genders and pin-outs of your serial ports and cables. You may require "gender changers" (available at most computer stores) for the two 25-pin connectors. Refer to page 6 for the details of the pin-outs of the dual port serial cable.

Configuring the RF Laser Reader for your computer and application

The RF Laser Setup Menu is located in Appendix J of this manual. This simple menu lets you easily configure the RF Laser 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 Reader 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.

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 beam 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.

If the transmitted data fails to be acknowledged,

1) further scanning is prohibited. You can't pull the trigger again until the data reaches the base or until you clear the scanner.

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

3) If it fails three times, it will emit a distinct 8-beep pattern and turn off. This is your clue to check out the Base Station.

4) You can pull the trigger to try transmission again. (the laser beam will not come on until the transmission is acknowledged or you hold the trigger down for 30 seconds to clear the data).

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, post-it notes, or the supplied Laser Setup Assist window, 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.

Don't forget to take the R/F Laser Scanner of Setup Mode by scanning End Setup, otherwise the batteries will run down totally because the radio transmitter remains on.

Using The RF Laser Setup Menu

1. To configure your reader using the Reader Setup Menu found in Appendix J of this manual. 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 RF Laser 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 8 before continuing.

2. Next, choose the parameter you want to change an option for, and scan its code (i.e. Code 3 of 9, or Postamble). You should hear two beeps if you scanned correctly.

3. Then, choose the option you want to change from the list below the parameter bar code you just scanned, and scan the number on the barpad that corresponds to that option. For example, if you scanned the parameter “Codabar” and wanted to “Enable Codabar”, you would scan the number 0 on the barpad.

4. Now scan End Setup (at the top-right corner of the Reader Setup Menu to complete the setup exercise. If you scanned correctly, you'll hear three beeps.

Continue scanning topics and options until you've made all the changes you desire, and then scan End Setup to complete setup. If you are planning to use several RF Laser scanners with one base station, pay attention to the Set ID parameter.

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

RF Laser Setup Parameters

Channel

Default Channel

• The default Channel is always shipped as 0. There are 10 channels

in the USA and Canada. The Channel for the RF Laser Reader is set by scanning the Setup Menu.

• All Lasers and associated Base Station must be set to the same

channel. If you have more than one RF Laser per Base Station, you must set a unique ID in each RF Laser. (See SET ID.)

• The Laser channel must match the channel on the Base station. See

Appendix A for information on changing the channel on the Base from the shipped default channel of 0.

Caps Lock OFF D

For information about Code 39 and Full ASCII Code 39, see Appendix C. See page 23 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.

For more information on UPC and EAN, see following page and Appendix H.

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 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 Code 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.

2 4

1 digits 5

Digit 8

Digit 9

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 EAN13 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.

CLSI format is a form of Codabar often used by libraries.

Enabling Start/Stop character transmission means that the RF Laser will transmit start/stop characters to your computer along with data. If you're varying start/stop characters with different label types, you'll want to enable transmission.

Enable Standard 2 of 5 6

Disable Standard 2 of 5 7

For information about Interleaved and Standard 2 of 5, see Appendix G. Enabling the Check Digit requires the data's units position to match the calculation for the check digit explained in Appendix F. 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 RF Laser 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!

Code 93

Enable Code 93 0

Disable Code 93

Enable Full ASCII Code 93 2 Disable Full ASCII Code 93 3

For more information on Code 93 see Appendix D.

Terminator characters (This applies to the BASE only)

CR (Enter) 0

Tab 1 None 2

Depending on your application, you may wish your RF Laser 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 TAB, you can get it by specifying None here and then selecting your desired terminator character(s) specified in the Postamble (See Page 15).

Beep Options

Decode and Acknowledge 0

Acknowledge Only 1

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 default is no preamble. To select a preamble, scan up to 15 characters from the "FULL ASCII MENU" on the back of the RF Laser 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:

Bar Code Data

Preamble Data Transmitted

123 XYZ XYZ123 12345678 ~3XYZ XYZ45678 12345678 ~9 12345678 12345 ~A 12345 123456 ~5 6

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 12 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.

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:
