Memory Cards
The Handheld 2D Code Reader uses a Memory Card to change communication conditions
and function settings in the Setup window and to upload/backup the setting data and the data
that has been read. SD Memory Cards are supported.
• Conforms to SD Memory Card “Physical Layer Specification 1.01”
• File format: FAT16
Save the data to the Memory Card, insert the Memory Card in the personal computer, and
upload the data to easily backup the data to the personal computer. SD Memory Cards are
provided with a write prohibit switch to prohibit writing to or formatting of the Memory Card.
When the switch is set to LOCK, data cannot be written to or deleted from the Memory Card,
and the Memory Card cannot be formatted. These functions are possible by setting the switch
to the unlocked state.

The Handheld 2D Code Reader is equipped with a sleep function for reducing power
consumption.
The Code Reader is automatically set to sleep when operation is not performed for a
specified period of time.
• 30 Seconds Lapsed (Default Setting)
To cancel sleep and put the Code Reader in normal state, press one of the trigger

With display conversion, comparison is performed with the data contained in the file, and the display

Matching processing is performed in order starting from the beginning of the file. Once a match is
found, no further comparisons are made, i.e., matching processing is affected by the entry order.
Therefore, when comparing complicated patterns, make sure that the optimum order is used.

ASCII Table
Data read with no-protocol commands using the serial communications interface is output as 2
characters of ASCII.
The ASCII characters correspond to the following characters.
Examples:
• When the read data is A, 41 is output.
• When the data read is T, 54 is output.

FCS Calculation Method
■ FCS Calculation Method
The FCS (Frame Check Sequence) is the result of taking the XOR for each byte
between the header and footer (8 bits) and converting it to 2 characters of ASCII.
The FCS can be attached to output data to improve the reliability of communications.
Each time data is received, the host calculates the FCS and checks it against the FCS
attached to the sent data so that the send data can be checked for errors.
■ Calculation Example for Sending FCS
Sample read data: ABCDEFG
The details of the read data and calculation method are as follows:

Data Capacity Tables
The maximum quantity of information that can be stored depends on the symbol size of the code.
Also the maximum data capacity in relation to the amount of information carried by the code
depends on the character type and the arrangement and combination of characters. The relation
between the symbol size (number of cells) and data capacity is shown in the following table.

Maximum Data Capacity
Even with the same 2D code, the maximum quantity of information that can be stored depends on
the symbol size of the code.
In other words, the symbol size must be increased to increase the data capacity.
The data capacity also depends on the type of characters used for the information contained in the
code. With QR and DataMatrix Code, the maximum number of characters for the same symbol size
will be greatest for numbers only and then for alphanumerics, and will be the least with 2-byte
characters.
The data capacity also depends on the character type, and the order and combination of characters
used.
