Chapter 2 Keyboard Interface

As a keyboard Interface, the scanner is actually installed between PC

(or terminal) and keyboard. See Figure 1 for reference. The scanner

sends data to the host device by emulating the keyboard signals input

and acts like an extension of the keyboard.

2.1 Installation

This scanner can be installed easily by following the installation guide

illustrated below. Before you start the installation, locate a “Y” type

cable in the package.

Installation procedures:

1) Plug the modular (RJ45) connector of the “Y” cable into the bottom

of the scanner until you hear a click sound.

PC or Terminal

Keyboard

2) Turn off your PC or terminal.

3) Unplug the keyboard from the PC or terminal.

4) Plug the keyboard into a connector of the Y cable that mates with it.

5) Plug the remaining connector of the “Y” cable into the keyboard

port of your PC or terminal.

6) Power up your PC or terminal you press the switch the beam should

be out from the scanner.

2.4 Installed as an USB Interface

You can install the scanner with the USB interface cable to work with

either PC or iMac USB port. See Figure 1.1 for reference. Your

operating system may require the original setup CD to install the driver

with initial setup.

2.5 Understanding the Operating Parameters

There are some operating parameters that can be configured to work

for different applications. It will be described as follow;

Intercharacter Delay

Intercharacter delay is the time period that the scanner will wait before

transmitting the next character after the first character was sent. If data

sent by the scanner was incorrect or missing characters, a longer

intercharacter delay may solve the problem.

Interblock Delay

Interblock delay is the minimum time interval between two adjacent

scanning. If the processing speed of your host device is slower than

Page 7

your scanning speed, a longer interblock delay may ensure the data

integrity.

Function Code

The scanner can emulate function and other special keys on the

keyboard by scanning some pre-defined labels. Appendix B includes

those labels for special keys on PC, Macintosh, and IBM terminals. As

an option, you may also print these labels by printing their

corresponding Code 39 characters (in brackets) to work with scanner.

Caps-Lock

This parameter tells the scanner the current Caps-Lock status of the

keyboard so that the character transmitted by the scanner is in correct

case.

* Auto Trace (For PC AT/XT only):

In Auto Trace mode, the scanner will keep track of the Caps-Lock

status automatically. For some PCs, the scanning performance

may be compromised because of the auto tracing. If the scanning

performance is poor (or can not scan) or the scanner can not

output the upper/lower case characters correctly, try to select one

of the next two choices instead of auto tracing.

* Lower Case:

When the keyboard is in the unshifted state (CapLock is not

pressed), select "Lower Case".

* Upper Case:

When keyboard has the CapLock key on, select "Upper Case".

Alt Key Mode

“ALT Key Mode” is a choice in the language selection. Sending

characters by ALT key plus keys on the numeric keypad is a feature in

MS-DOS. When selecting "ALT Key Mode", the scanner sends out the

native ASCII combination codes to represent each character of the bar

code scanned. If your system accepts ALT key sending, you can enable

this mode and ignore selections of the "Upper/Lower Case" and

"Language".

You may find these settings on the Appendix D page D2 and D3.

Chapter 3 RS232 Serial Interface

3.1 Installation

To use the scanner as a RS232 serial interface, a RS232 interface cable

and a power adapter are required. See Chapter 8 for cable pinout and

adapter specification. Figure 2 shows an installation diagram for your

reference.

Installation procedures:

1) Make sure the scanner’s cable has the right connector and pinout for

the RS232 port of the host device. If the pinout is different from

device, swapping pins is necessary to achieve proper communication.

2) If the host device has power output at RS232 interface port, the

scanner can be powered by connecting that power line to pin 9 of the

scanner connector. If there is no power at RS232 port, An AC

adapter is needed. Plug the adapter into the DB type connector at the

end of the interface cable.

3) Plug the DB type connector of the interface cable into host’s RS232

port and power up the device.

4) When the scanner is powered, a long beep sound indicates the

scanner is ready to use.

3.2 Understanding the Operating Parameters

Device Type

You will need to select the device type to “Serial Interface” from

Appendix A, Group 1 of Appendix D, or the following label.

Serial Interface

Baud Rate, Parity and Data Bit:

These parameters set the scanner’s communication protocol that must

be matched by the host. The default setting for the serial interface is

9600 baud rate, none parity, and 8 data bit.

* Baud Rate can be 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, or 38400

bps.

* Parity can be even, odd, space, mark, or none.

* Data Bit can be 7 or 8 bit long.

The scanner may not support settings with Data Bit as 7 and Parity as

none combination. Such combination is treated as 7 data bits with

MARK parity.

Handshaking:

The scanner supports CTS/RTS handshaking as an option. The

hardware handshaking is supported on character-by-character basis.

During the communication, the scanner will stop sending data until the

CTS is valid within time specified by the Time Out parameter. During

this time-out waiting period:

-- If CTS is valid, communication resumes.

-- If CTS is not valid, the scanner sounds an error beep and discards

the current buffered data.

Page 10

BCC Character:

BCC check character is calculated for entire data stream by using

“Exclusive OR ” method. It is sent after data stream for data

verification.

Time Out:

You can adjust the Time Out duration for handshaking and ACK/NAK

protocol to fit applications.

3.3 Serial TTL

This scanner supports serial TTL interface which follows the RS232

communication data format but with TTL voltage output ranged from

0V to 5V.

Page 11

Chapter 4 Terminal Interface

4.1 Installation

To install the scanner as a terminal interface, you need a DB25 RS232

cable, a terminal wedge “Y” cable and an AC adapter. See Figure 3 for

reference.

male

Installation procedures:

1) Power off the terminal and unplug the communication cable at

terminal side.

2) Install the interface cable as shown in Figure 3. The “Y” cable

provided in Figure 3 is for terminals with female connector on

communication port. If there is a male connector on your terminal,

you need a converter to change that male to female and another

converter to change the female to male on host connector.

3) When the scanner is powered, a long beep sound indicates that the

scanner is ready to use.

Page 12

4) If the scanner has not been configured yet, you need to select

“Terminal Wedge” device number from Appendix A, Group 1 of

Appendix D, or the following label.

Terminal Wedge

4.2 Understanding the Operating Parameters

Baud Rate, Parity and Data Bit:

These parameters set the scanner’s communication protocol which

must be matched the same setting by the host. The default setting for

the terminal interface is 9600 baud rate, none parity, and 8 data bit.

* Baud Rate can be 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, or

38400 bps.

* Parity can be even, odd, space, mark, or none.

* Data Bit can be 7 or 8 bit long.

The scanner may not support settings with Data Bit as 7 and Parity as

none combination. Such combination is treated as 7 data bits with

MARK parity.

Data Direction:

This setting is only for the terminal wedge and corresponds to the

terminal communication mode. If the terminal has:

* "Full Duplex" mode, set the data direction to "Send to Host".

* "Half Duplex" mode, set to "Send to Host and Terminal".

* "Block" mode, set to "Send to Terminal".

Chapter 5 Wand Emulation

5.1 Installation

Figure 4 shows how a wand emulation scanner is installed to a data

collection terminal. User needs to pay attention to the scanner pinout

that should be the same as specified by the terminal.

Figure 4. Installed as a Wand Emulation Scanner

SCANNER

5.2 Understanding the Operating Parameters

Code 39 Output:

When device number “07” is selected, the scanner is set as wand

emulation with Code 39 output. In this configuration, the scanner

always outputs data with Code 39 symbology no matter what

symbology of the label it scans. You may scan the following label if

this setting matched your application.

Code39 Wand

Emulation

Native Output:

When device number “26” is selected, the scanner is set to wand

emulation with native output. That means the scanner outputs data

with both the same contents and symbology as the label represents.

Page 14

Output of Wand Emulation: (Appendix D, 3)

Select one of the two choices for the polarity of data output:

* High level for bar (black) and low level for space (white).

* High level for space (white) and low level for bar (black).

Level Duration of Minimum Width: (Appendix D, 3)

Determine the minimum time duration for bar or space either 200 us or

600 us. Longer time means slower movement of the wand scanner.

Polarity of Idle: (Appendix D, 3)

Polarity of idle (without scanning) can be selected either low or high.

Page 15

Chapter 6 Setup

The scanner interface can be configured to fit the user's specific

application. All configuration parameters are stored in a non-volatile

memory, which is retained even if power is lost.

6.1 Bar Code Menu Setup

The setup menu in Appendix D contains eight groups:

* Group 1: Device selection.

* Group 2: Beep and delay.

* Group 3: Keyboard and Wand Emulation.

* Group 4: RS-232 Settings

* Group 5: Scanner port.

* Group 7: Code 39, I 2 of 5, S 2 of 5 and Code 32.

* Group 8: Code 128, Code 93, Code 11, Codabar, and MSI.

* Group 9: UPC/EAN, and Delta Distance Code.

* Group 10: Data Editing.

* Group 11: Dump setup.

6.1.1 Setup Procedures:

For most parameters, proceed the following steps for the setting:

1) Locate a group that contains the parameter to be changed.

2) Scan the "Enter Group #" label to enter setup mode. The green

LED on the scanner will flash to indicate that setup is in progress.

3) Scan the label (on right hand side) representing the parameter to

be changed.(For example, B1 label)

4) Scan the labels (number) representing the desired parameter value.

(For example, 05, scan “0” and “5” labels.)

5) Repeat step 3 and 4, if necessary, to change the parameters in the

same group.

6) Scan "Exit" label to end the group setup. The scanner will make

two beeps to end the setup.

Page 16

6.1.2 Bar Code Length Setting:

The following example illustrates how to set Code 39 with a minimum

length of 5 and a maximum length of 20:

* Scan “Enter Group 5”.

* Scan “F1” to select Code 39.

* Scan “MIN LENGTH” to enter minimum length setting.

* Scan “0” and “5” to select length 5.

* Scan “MIN LENGTH” to end minimum length setting.

* Scan “MAX LENGTH” to enter maximum length setting.

* Scan “2” and “0” to select length 20.

* Scan “MAX LENGTH” to end maximum length setting.

* Scan “Exit” to end setup.

6.1.3 Code ID Setting:

Each bar code symbology supported by the scanner has a default ID

character defined as below: (If you don’t know what is the label that

you’re scanning, you may use this feature to identify.)

Symbology Pre-Defined

UPC-A A

UPC-E E

Code 128 K

UCC/EAN128 ]C1

MSI O

Code 32 T

Delta Code D

Plessey Code P

Label Code IV,V B

China Postal Code C

Page 17

Those ID characters can be redefined through setup menu. The

following example shows how to set Code 93 with ID ‘O’ and Code

128 without ID:

* Scan “Enter Group 3”.

* Scan “D2” to select Code ID.

* Scan “1” for "Yes".

* Scan “D3” to define IDs.

* Scan “0” and “9” for selecting Code 93.

* Scan “O” from Full ASCII Table for new ID.

* Scan “0” and "8" to select Code 128.

* Scan “NULL” character from Full ASCII Table for none ID.

* Scan “Exit” to end setup.

6.1.4 Preamble(Prefix) and Postamble(Suffix):

Preamble, the scanner adds the start of text characters before the input

data. Postamble, the scanner adds end of text characters after the input

data. The following is an example to set ‘STX’ as preamble and ‘ETX’

as postamble:

* Scan “Enter Group 3”.

* Scan “PP” to start preamble setting.

* Scan ‘STX’ character from Full ASCII Table.

* Scan “PP” to end preamble setting.

* Scan “OO” to start postamble setting.

* Scan ‘ETX’ from Full ASCII Table.

* Scan “OO” to end postamble setting.

* Scan “Exit”.

6.1.5 Predefined Labels

The scanner provides three special labels encoded as “/FY”, “/FZ” and

“/F-” in Code 39 format. The output from these labels can be defined

through the setup menu. The definition of the labels share the same

space with “Edit Formula definition”(See “Output Data Editing”), so

you can only use either one of the function.

Label 0 Label 1 Label 2

/ F Y / FZ / F-

Page 18

Here is an example how to define the output of “Label 0” as “START”,

“Label 1” as “ACCEPT” and “Label 2” as “END”:

* Scan “Enter Group 3”

* Scan “B7”

* Scan “0” to define “Label 0”

* Scan “S”, “T”, “A”, “R” and “T” from Full ASCII chart

* Scan “B7” to end “Label 0”

* Scan “1” to define “Label 1”

* Scan “A”, “C”, “C”, “E”, “P” and “T” from FULL ASCII chart

* Scan “B7” to end “Label 1”

* Scan “2” to define “Label 2”

* Scan “E”, “N” and “D” from Full ASCII chart

* Scan “B7” to end “Label 2”

* Scan “Exit” to quit setup

After the programming, scan “Label 0”, “Label 1” and “Label 2” listed

above will have output of “START”, “ACCEPT” and “END”

respectively. The characters defined in these labels can be ASCII

characters or Function keys.

To eliminate the definition of “Label 1”, do the following:

* Scan “Enter Group 3”

* Scan “B7”

* Scan “1” to choose “Label 1”

* Scan “B7” to end

* Scan “Exit” to exit setup

There is only total 24 characters space available for defining these

three labels. If one of the labels has been defined the output with 24

characters, the other two labels can not be defined further.

6.2 Quick Setup

Appendix A has a quick setup chart which gives you one-label-for-one-

function convenience to setup the scanner. To setup the scanner, locate

the label with the function you want and scan that label.

6.3 Batch Setup

If you need to configure more than one scanner, you may duplicate the

settings of the scanner (master) to the others. You can do this by

producing a set of custom setup labels derived from the master scanner

and scanning these labels configuring the other scanners.

Page 20

The following issues should be observed:

• The sequence of the strings that the scanner dumped is important. You

have to print the bar code labels and scan them in the same sequence as

the one that the scanner dumped.

• When you scan the batch setup labels to configure a scanner, the

previous settings on that scanner are reset to default and then replaced

by the settings contained in the batch labels.

• Only the settings that are different from the default values will be

dumped. So the number of labels produced depends on how many

settings being changed compare to the factory default setting.

• The settings can be dumped to a PC or terminal only if that PC or

terminal matches the type defined by Device Type of the scanner. The

previous example of “Keyboardless Wedge” as Device Type is

equivalent to a PC/AT interface, so you can not dump that settings to a

system which dose not support a PC/AT keyboard interface.

The following label let you dump the settings to a PC/AT regardless

what kind of device has been chosen on the scanner.

Dump Settings On PC/AT

• You can adjust the length of the dumped strings by combining multiple

strings into one or breaking one string into multiple strings. The

following strings have the same effect as the dumped string listed above:

...I800C06D51DJ8080

80A0O7C005354415254.

You can not delete any character from or add any character into the

strings and the first three characters (“...”) must present in the first

string.

• All characters in dumped strings are in upper case. If you see lowercase

characters in dumped strings, change them to upper case.

Figure 7.1 Formula Structure

7.3. Programming

7.3.1. Programming Sequence:

Each Formula is entered into the Reader by the following sequence:

Input_ID>>Length>>Match>>A-String>>O-String O-String>>...>>

>>Enter

A Formula starts with Input_ID and ends with “Enter”(a label in

programming sheet). If a field is optional and missing, the next one in

the sequence can be entered. But “Enter” must be the last input of a

formula.

7.3.2. Preparation

To start the data editing, the following barcode sheets are needed:

-- Programming Sheet.( Setup Sheet in Appendix D).

-- Full ASCII Sheet (Appendix E).

-- Function Code Sheet (Appendix B or C).

Before programming Data Editing, you should know the format of the

original data record that may be altered by the setup groups.

Page 24

b) String Parameters

A string is a set of characters, wild characters, or sequence of

adjacent characters enclosed in double quotation marks, which are

on the Programming Sheet. For example:

" "A* #B

Here * and # are wild characters on the setup sheet.

7.4. Qualifier

There are three conditional fields in the Qualifier:

Input ID, Length and Match.

7.4.1. Input ID

Format:

IN_ID, , ,ID1, ... IDi

Input ID is required and the original data record must correspond to

Input ID of a formula in order to be processed.

ID1 to IDi are represented by digits. The following Input IDs are

available:

0 = Code 39 Full ASCII

1 = Code 39 Standard

2 = EAN 13

3 = EAN 8

4 = UPC A

5 = UPC E

6 = I 2 of 5

7 = Codabar

8 = Code 128

9 = Code 93

10 = S 2 of 5

11 = MSI

19 = UCC/EAN128

28 = All Inputs

There is no limitation on the number of IDs to be defined.

Example:

IN_ID, , ,0 11

means the original data can be Code 39 or MSI.

Page 25

7.4.2. Length:

Format:

LEN, , ,Min Max

Length field consists of two length parameters: minimum length (Min)

and maximum length (Max). When defined, a formula will be

performed if the length of the original data falls between MIN and

MAX

When missing, the following fields of current Formula are always

processed.

Example:

LEN, , ,9 48

means the length of original data must be within 9 and 48.

7.4.3. Match

Format:

MATCH, , , , , , , , P0 " "C0 P1 " "C1 ... Pn " "Cn

a pair of Pn and Cn forms a Match field (n indicates a sequential

integer number). To define a Match field, two parameters are required.

The first is character position (Pn) and the second is a string (Cn).

Character position means the number of characters, counting from the

first character to the one to be positioned in the data record.

For example, in the following data

BARCODE

'B' has position 1.

'A' has position 2.

...

'E' has position 7.

When Match field is defined, the original data string starts at the

position specified by the first parameter P and will be compared with

string "C". If the match is identical, processing of current Formula

continues.

The position parameter P could be a wild character * for any position

or # for the last position in the original data. If # is used,

#-N

is valid. Here N is a digit parameter.

The string parameter C can include * for any digit or # for any letter.

Examples:

MATCH, , , , ,3" "AB # " "?

Page 26

Checks if the original data has 'A' at position 3, 'B' at position '4' and

last character is '?'.

MATCH , , , 10 " " *A*

Checks if the original data includes a string with a digit as first

character and "A*" followed at position 10.

7.5. Modifier

Modifier has two types of fields: A-String and O-String to define the

output contents.

7.5.1. A-String

Format:

" "abc...

'a', 'b' and 'c' in the string can be any character.

A-String defines a string of characters to be added to the output. For

example, if the original data is:

BCD

and output string is BarCoDe

"ar", 'o' and 'e' in output string are added strings and can be defined by

A-Strings.

Note: If '*' on Programming Sheet are included in A-String, one

interblock delay defined by Group 2 will be inserted.

7.5.2. O-String

Format:

O-STR , , , P N

O-String always applies to the original data. It contains two

parameters. The first is position parameter (P) that specifies the start

output position in the original data. Parameter N tells how many

characters will be included beginning from P.

Example:

Original data is:Barcode

Then

O-Str ,,, 4 4

Gives output as

code

Note:

-- N can be '#' for all remaining characters from P.

-- If P greater than the length of original data, the O-String will be

skipped.

Page 27

-- If N greater than the number of remaining characters counting from

P, the remaining characters are included as valid.

7.6. Examples

7.6.1. Example 1

If the original data is Code 39 and content is "AA", output "ABC

Company", and otherwise output the original data as it is.

IN_ID, , , , , , , , ,0LEN 2 2 MATCH 1" "AA " "ABC company Enter

IN_ID, , , , ,19 O-STR 1# Enter

7.6.2. Example 2

If the original data is Code 128 and logically divided into:

-- First six characters are personal ID,

-- Other characters are person's name.

The output will be:

-- Personal ID first,

-- A 'CR' character,

-- Two interblock delay,

-- Name,

-- A 'CR' character.

The Formula will be:

IN_ID, , , , , , , , , ,8O-STR 1 6 " "<CR>** O-STR 7# " "<CR> Enter

<CR> is a Carriage Return character scanned from Full ASCII Chart.

7.7. Advanced Features

The O-String has the format:

O-STR, , ,P N

Both parameters of O-String mentioned above are numbers. But both

parameters can be specified as strings. If N is a string, it becomes a

position and the meaning of O-String will be "Output from position P

to position N".

If P is defined as:

" "ab...ik

a, b, , i and k can be any character, the position will be evaluated as

-- Start from the first position of the original string and search

character 'a'.

-- From the position next to 'a' in original data, search for 'b'.

-- ....

Page 28

-- From the position next to 'i', search for k.

-- If above searches are all found, the result of the parameter will be the

position where 'k' is located.

If N is a string, the position evaluation of N is the same as P except that

the searching position is starting from P+1.

For both P and N, if string is defined, a value can be added to or

subtracted from the position. That following O-Strings:

" "ab...ik +M,

And

" "ab...ik -M,

Are meaningful. M is a integer number.

Example:

Suppose the following is a message to be modified:

%B012345678901234^ABEL/STEVE L MGR ^90010129999999?

in this message:

"%" is start sentinel.

"012345678901234" is account number.

"^" is a separator

6. "ABEL" is surname.

"/" is a separator.

"STEVE" is first name.

"L" is initial.

"MGR" is title

"^" is a separator.

"9001" is expiration date.

"?" is end sentinel.

The output sequence desired is:

Surname, First Name [CR] Account Number [CR] Expiration Date [CR]

The formula input will be:

IN_ID, , , , , , , , , ,0O-STR " "^ +1 " "/ -1 "," O-STR " "/ +1 " "<SP> -1 " "<CR>

O-STR O-STR, , , ,3" "^ -1 " "<CR> , , , ," "^^ +1 4 " "<CR> Enter

Here <SP> is Space character and <CR> is Carriage Return character.

The output of above input will be

ABEL,STEVE[CR]

012345678901234[CR]

9001[CR]

Chapter 8 Pin Assignment and Specification

8.1 Pin Assignments

The modular connector

located at the bottom of

the scanner handle has

the pin numbering as

shown at the right

picture

8.1.1. Keyboard Interface

The next table shows the modular connector pinout for keyboard

interface:

Note: DET signal is bi-directional I/O pin and for internal use only.

As keyboard interface, there are two other connectors on the interface

cable. The connector type and pinout differ from terminal to terminal

and are not listed here.

8.1.2. RS232 Interface

The scanner supports TTL RS232 at modular connector and standard

RS232 after the interface cable is attached.

Note:

(1) DET signal is bi-directional I/O pin and for internal use only.

(2) CTS and RXD are input signals and take 0V to 5V only. If the

scanner is used to interface with a standard RS232 port, those

signals should not be connected.

Standard RS232 Interface:

To support standard RS232 interface, an RS232 adapter cable from the

manufacture must be used. This cable is a special one and can not be

replaced by the others. One end of that cable which has RS232 signal

presented is a DB25 or DB9 female connector and has following

pinout:
