Connecting the Scanner When Powered by Host  
(Keyboard Wedge)  
A scanner can be connected between the keyboard and PC as a keyboard  
wedge,plugged into the serial port, or connected to a portable data terminal in  
wand emulation or non decoded output mode. The following is an example of a  
keyboard wedge connection:  
1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer.  
2. Disconnect the keyboard cable from the back of the terminal/computer,  
as shown below.  
Disconnect  
3. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the scanner and to the  
terminal/computer.

4. Turn the terminal/computer power back on. The scanner will beep  
twice.  
5. Verify the scanner operation by scanning a bar code from the back  
cover of this manual. The scanner will beep once.  
The scanner is now connected and ready to communicate with your  
terminal/PC. You must program the scanner for your interface before bar code  
data can be transmitted to your terminal/PC. If you are using the scanner as a  
keyboard wedge, turn to page 21. If the scanner is connected via a serial  
port, turn to page 28. If this is a wand emulation application, turn to page  
213, and for a non decoded output connection, turn to page 62.

7 data bits, parity bit, 1 stop bit (8 bit data)  
RS-232 Interface  
In Wand Emulation mode, the scanner decodes the bar code then sends data  
in the same format as a wand scanner. The Same Code format transmits  
UPC, EAN, Code 128 and Interleaved 2 of 5 bar codes without any changes,  
but converts all other symbologies to Code 39.  
Wand Emulation Same Code  
The following Wand Emulation bar code sets the interface to Wand Emulation  
mode and translates bar code data as Code 39 symbology. It also programs  
the Transmission Rate to 25 inches per second, and Output Polarity to black  
high.  
Wand Emulation (Code 39 Format)  
Note for the 3800PDF model: When the 3800PDF interface is set to wand  
emulation, all PDF417 bar code data is transmitted as Code 128. Data from  
other symbologies follow the rules described above.

USB  
The IT3800 uses a USB converter to simulate a USB keyboard. Data flows into  
applications as if entered from the keyboard. The USB converter is compatible  
with Apple IMAC Series and WindowsR 98 and later PCs. Use cable set  
4220606201 to make the USB port connection.  
To set up the USB communications, find the terminal ID in the Supported  
Terminal Chart and follow the instructions on page 22. The PC and scanner  
automatically connect. Communications start immediately.  
Serial Wedge  
The IT3800 uses TTL signal levels to wedge into an RS-232 serial network.  
Use IT3800 serial wedge cables only to prevent damage to the scanner. Refer  
to the serial interface programming (pages 29 to 212) to set the baud rate  
and communications protocol.  
To set up the serial wedge terminal ID, find the terminal ID in the Supported  
Terminal Chart and follow the instructions on page 22. Set the port to which  
you want the scanned data to transmit. Port 1 corresponds to P1 on the output  
cable and Port 2 corresponds to P2 on the output cable. Choosing Both sends  
scanned data to P1 and P2. Default = P1.

RSĆ232 Word Length: Data Bits, Stop Bits, and Parity  
Data Bits sets the word length at 7 or 8 bits of data per character. If an  
application requires only ASCII Hex characters 0 through 7F decimal (text,  
digits, and punctuation), select 7 data bits. For applications which require use  
of the full ASCII set, select 8 data bits per character. Default = 7.  
Stop Bits sets the stop bits at 1 or 2. Default = 1.  
Parity provides a means of checking character bit patterns for validity.  
Default = Even.

Wand Emulation Connection  
In Wand Emulation mode, the scanner decodes the bar code then sends data  
in the same format as a wand scanner. The Code 39 Format converts all  
symbologies to Code 39. The Same Code Format transmits UPC, EAN, Code  
128 and Interleaved 2 of 5 without any changes, but converts all other  
symbologies to Code 39. These codes set the transmission rate to 25 inches  
per second and the output polarity to black, high. Default = Code 39 Format.  
* Code 39 Format  
Same Code Format  
Note for the 3800PDF model: When the 3800PDF interface is set to wand  
emulation, all PDF417 bar code data is transmitted as Code 128. Data from  
other symbologies follow the rules described above.  
IMAGETEAM 3800 Users Guide  
213

Wand Emulation Idle  
The idle describes the state of the scanner when no data is being transmitted.  
When in Wand Emulation mode, you must set the scanners idle state to match  
the idle state for the device to which the scanner is connected. Default = Idle  
High.

Wake Up Pulse  
This provides a wake uppulse on the sync line from the scanner to a portable  
terminal. This feature extends battery life of the portable terminal by waking up  
the terminal only when data is ready to be sent. Bar code data follows the  
wake up pulse after a 0.2 second delay. Default = Off.

Reread Delay  
This sets the time period before the scanner can read the same bar code a  
second time. Setting a reread delay protects against accidental rereads of the  
same bar code. Longer delays are effective in minimizing accidental rereads at  
POS (point of sale). Use shorter delays in applications where repetitive bar  
code scanning is required. Default = Short.  
Reread Delay only works when in automatic trigger mode (see page 34).

Trigger Mode  
Default = Manual Trigger  
Manual Trigger: You must press the scanner trigger to scan. When not  
scanning, idle power is maintained.  
* Manual Trigger  
Manual Trigger, Low Power: The scanner sleeps,using only 5 microamps,  
until the trigger is pulled. When the trigger is pulled, the scanner wakes up and  
operates at reduced power until there is no triggering for the time set with the  
Low Power Time Out bar code. There is a short delay in operation when the  
scanner is first triggered, but there is no delay when operating in low power  
mode.  
Manual Trigger, Low Power  
Note: Manual Trigger, Low Power cannot be used with keyboard wedge  
applications.  
Low Power Time Out: Scan the Low Power Time Out bar code to change the  
time out duration. Then scan the time out duration (from 0300 seconds) from  
the inside back cover, and Save. Default = 2 minutes.  
Note:  
If you make an error while scanning the digits (before scanning Save),  
scan Discard on the back cover, scan the Lower Power Time Out  
bar code, scan the correct digits, then Save again.  
Low Power Time Out  
Automatic Trigger: The scanner scans continuously at full power.  
Automatic Trigger  
Presentation Mode: The LEDs are off until a bar code is presented to the  
scanner. Then the LEDs turn on automatically to read the code. Presentation  
Mode uses normal office or store ambient light to detect the bar codes.

Section 4  
Data Editing  
When a bar code is scanned, additional information is sent to the host  
computer along with the bar code data. This group of bar code data and  
additional, user-defined data is called a message string.The selections in this  
section are used to build the user-defined data into the message string.  
Prefix and Suffix characters are data characters that can be sent before and  
after scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all  
symbologies, or only with specific symbologies. The following illustration  
shows the breakdown of a message string:  
Prefix

Points to Keep In Mind  
D
It is not necessary to build a message string. The selections in this chapter  
are only used if you wish to alter the default settings. Default prefix = None.  
Default suffix = None.  
D
D
A prefix or suffix may be added or cleared from one symbology or all  
symbologies.  
You can add any prefix or suffix from the ASCII chart (pg. 45 ), plus Code  
I.D. and Aim I.D.  
D
D
You can string together several entries for several symbologies at one time.  
Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to appear on  
the output.  
IMAGETEAM 3800 Users Guide  
41  
To Add a Prefix or Suffix:  
STEP 1. Scan the Add Prefix or Add Suffix symbol (pg. 44).  
STEP 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (pg.  
45) for the symbology to which you want to apply the prefix or  
suffix.  
STEP 3. Scan the 2 hex digits from the Programming Chart inside the back  
cover or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies.  
STEP 4. Determine the hex value from the Decimal to Hex to ASCII  
Conversion Chart (pg. 45) for the prefix or suffix you wish to enter.  
STEP 5. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the  
back cover.  
Note: Repeat Steps 4 and 5 for every prefix or suffix character.  
Note: To add the Code I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 0.  
To add AIM I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 1.  
To add a backslash (\), scan 5, C, 5, C.  
STEP 6. Scan Save to exit and save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.  
Repeat Steps 16 to add a prefix or suffix for another symbology.  
Example: Add a Suffix to a specific symbology  
To send a CR (carriage return) Suffix for UPC only:  
STEP 1. Scan Add Suffix.  
STEP 2. Determine the 2 digit hex value from the Symbology Chart (pg.  
45) for UPC.  
STEP 3. Scan 6, 3 from the Programming Chart (inside back cover).  
STEP 4. Determine the hex value from the Decimal to Hex to ASCII  
Conversion Chart (pg. 45) for the CR (carriage return).  
STEP 5. Scan 0, D from the Programming Chart (inside back cover).  
STEP 6. Scan Save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.  
To Clear One or All Prefixes or Suffixes:  
You can clear a single prefix or suffix, or clear all prefixes/suffixes for a  
symbology. When you Clear One Prefix (Suffix), the specific character you  
select is deleted from the symbology you want. When you Clear All Prefixes  
(Suffixes), all the prefixes or suffixes for a symbology are deleted.  
STEP 1. Scan the Clear One Prefix or Clear One Suffix symbol.  
STEP 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (pg.  
45) for the symbology from which you want to clear the prefix or  
suffix.  
STEP 3. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the  
back cover or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies.  
Your change is automatically saved.

Function Code Transmit  
When this selection is enabled and function codes are contained within the  
scanned data, the scanner transmits the function code to the terminal. Charts  
of these function codes are provided in Section 10, Supported Interface Keys.  
When the scanner is in keyboard wedge mode, the scan code is converted to a  
key code before it is transmitted.

Some terminals drop information (characters) if data comes through too quickly.  
Intercharacter, interfunction, and intermessage delays slow the transmission of  
data, which increases data integrity.  
Each delay is composed of a 5 millisecond step. You can program up to 99  
steps (of 5 ms each).  
Intercharacter Delay  
This is a delay of up to 495 milliseconds (in multiples of 5) placed between the  
transmission of each character of scanned data. You can program up to 99  
steps (of 5 ms each). Scan the Intercharacter Delay bar code below, then scan  
the number of steps, and the SAVE bar code from the inside back cover.  
Note: If you make an error while scanning the digits (before scanning  
Save), scan Discard on the back cover, scan the Intercharacter  
Delay bar code, scan the correct digits, and Save again.

Section 5  
Data Formatting  
Data Format Editor Introduction  
The Data Format Editor selections are used to edit scanned data. For  
example, you can use the Data Format Editor to insert characters at certain  
points in bar code data as it is scanned.  
It is not necessary to use the Data Format Editor. A set of defaults for the data  
format is already programmed in the scanner. The selections in the following  
pages are used only if you wish to alter the default settings. Default Data  
Format setting = none.  
If you have changed data format settings, and wish to clear all formats and  
return to the defaults, scan the Default Data Format code.  
To Add a Data Format  
STEP 1. Scan the Enter Data Format symbol (pg. 54).  
STEP 2. Primary/Alternate Format  
Determine if this will be your primary data format, or one of 3  
alternate formats. (Alternate formats allow you single shot”  
capability to scan one bar code using a different data format. After  
the one bar code has been read, the scanner reverts to the primary  
data format. See page 56.) If you are programming the primary  
format, scan 0. If you are programming an alternate format, scan 1,  
2, or 3, depending on the alternate format you are programming.  
STEP 3. Terminal Type  
Refer to the Supported Terminals Chart (page 23) and locate the  
Terminal ID number for your PC. Scan three numeric bar codes on  
the inside back cover to program the scanner for your terminal ID  
(you must enter 3 digits). For example, scan 0 0 3 for an AT wedge.  
Note: The wildcard for all terminal types is 099.  
STEP 4. Code I.D.  
On pg. 45, find the symbology to which you want to apply the data  
format. Locate the Hex value for that symbology and scan the 2 digit  
hex value from the Programming Chart.  
STEP 5. Length  
Specify what length (up to 9999 characters) of data will be acceptable  
for this symbology. Scan the four digit data length from the  
Programming Chart. (Note: 50 characters is entered as 0050. 9999  
is a universal number, indicating all lengths.)  
STEP 6. Editor Commands  
Refer to the Format Editor Commands Chart (page 52). Scan the  
symbols that represent the command you want to enter. 94  
alphanumeric characters may be entered for each symbology data  
format.  
STEP 7. Scan Save to save your entries.  
IMAGETEAM 3800 Users Guide

Other Programming Selections  
D
Clear One Data Format  
This deletes one data format for one symbology. If you are clearing the  
primary format, scan 0. If you are clearing an alternate format, scan 1,  
2, or 3, depending on the alternate format you are clearing. Scan the  
Terminal Type (refer to the Supported Terminals Chart on page 23),  
Code I.D. and the length of the format you want to delete. That length  
data format for that symbology is deleted and all other formats are  
unaffected.

Alternate Data Formats  
Alternate formats allow you single shotcapability to scan one bar code using  
a different data format than your primary format. When data formats are  
programmed (see page 51), you must input whether you are programming  
the primary format, or an alternate format numbered 1, 2, or 3.  
An alternate format is initiated by scanning one of the 3 alternate format bar  
codes below. The scanner will scan the next bar code, formatting the data with  
the selected alternate format, then revert immediately to the primary format.

Section 6 Secondary Interface  
Secondary Interface  
By switching interface cables, the IT3800 scanner can communicate with a  
portable data terminal (secondary interface), in addition to the host terminal  
(primary interface).  
The secondary interface can be programmed at any time.  
Secondary Code 39 Wand Emulation  
In Wand Emulation mode, the scanner decodes the bar code then sends data  
in the same format as a wand scanner. The Code 39 Format converts all  
symbologies to Code 39. The Same Code Format transmits UPC, EAN, Code  
128 and Interleaved 2 of 5 without any changes, but converts all other  
symbologies to Code 39. These codes set the transmission rate to 25 inches  
per second and the output polarity to black, high. Default = Code 39 Format.  
* Wand Emulation  
Code 39 Format  
Wand Emulation  
Same Code Format  
Note for the 3800PDF model: When the 3800PDF interface is set to wand  
emulation, all PDF417 bar code data is transmitted as Code 128. Data from  
other symbologies follow the rules described above.  
Secondary RSĆ232 Connection  
All communication parameters between the scanner and terminal must match  
for correct data transfer through the serial port using RS-232 protocol.  
RS-232 programmable selections are used by both the primary and secondary  
interfaces. Changing an RS-232 parameter (e.g., baud rate or parity), while in  
primary or secondary mode will affect both interfaces.

Use this selection when connecting to a secondary terminal with integral  
decoding. This also sets the transmission rate to 36 scans per second and the  
polarity to white high.

scanning, idle power is maintained. Default = Manual Trigger.  
* Manual Trigger  
Automatic Trigger: The scanner scans continuously at full power.  
Automatic Trigger  
Manual Trigger, Low Power: The scanner sleeps,using only 5 microamps,  
until the trigger is pulled. When the trigger is pulled, the scanner wakes up and  
operates at reduced power until there is no triggering for the time set with the  
Low Power Time Out bar code. There is a short delay in operation when the  
scanner is first triggered, but there is no delay when operating in low power  
mode.  
Low Power Time Out: Scan the Low Power Time Out bar code to change the  
time out duration. Then scan the time out duration (from 0300 seconds) from  
the inside back cover and Save. Default = 2 minutes.  
Note:  
If you make an error while scanning the digits (before scanning Save),  
scan Discard on the back cover, scan the Low Power Time Out bar  
code, scan the correct digits, and Save again.

This function allows the scanner to append the data from several Code 39 bar  
codes together before transmitting them to the host computer. When this  
function is enabled, the scanner stores those Code 39 bar codes that start with  
a space (excluding the start and stop symbols), and does not immediately  
transmit the data. The scanner stores the data in the order in which the bar  
codes are read, deleting the first space from each. The scanner transmits the

Message Length  
The message length selection is used to set the valid reading length of the bar  
code. You may wish to set the same value for minimum and maximum length  
to force the scanner to read fixed length bar code data. This helps reduce the  
chances of a misread.  
EXAMPLE:  
Decode only those bar codes with a count of 920 characters.  
Min. length = 09 Max. length = 20  
EXAMPLE:  
Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.  
Min. length = 15 Max. length = 15  
For a value other than the minimum and maximum message length defaults,  
scan the bar codes below and then scan the 2digit value and Save bar codes  
on the Programming Chart inside back cover. Minimum and Maximum  
Lengths = 280.  
Note:  
If you make an error while scanning the digits (before scanning Save),  
scan Discard on the back cover, scan the Minimum or Maximum bar  
code, scan the correct digits, and Save again.  
Minimum (Default =4)  
Maximum (Default =80)  
Strict Decoding  
When Strict Decoding is used, the scanner only reads bar codes that are close  
to spec. This reduces the number of misreads, but also reduces the tolerance  
for bar codes that are slightly out of spec.

Cloning  
The cloning procedure reprograms the software in the destinationscanners  
memory with software from the sourcescanner. Before using this procedure,  
determine which scanner will be the source (the scanner containing the desired  
software). The IMAGETEAM 3800 supports cloning and can act as the source  
device. The software in the destination scanner will be updated from the  
source scanner. The destination scanner device must be the same model as  
the source.  
Procedure:  
1.  
2.  
3.  
Use the cloning cable (4220455901) to connect the two scanners  
for cloning.  
Connect the destination scanner to one of the 10 pin modular  
connectors on the cloning cable.  
Connect the source scanner (containing the new or updated  
software) to the remaining 10 pin modular connector on the cloning  
cable.  
4.  
5.  
Connect the power supply to the 4 pin miniDIN connector located  
on the cloning cable or the scanner cable.  
Make sure both units are on, and then scan the Clone Destination”  
bar code with the destination scanner.  
Clone Destination Bar Code  
6.  
Scan the Clone Source bar code below with the source scanner.  
The scanners Good ReadLED begins blinking periodically  
indicating cloning is in process.  
Clone Source Bar Code  
7.  
When cloning is complete, the destination scanner will double beep.  
This procedure takes approximately two minutes.  
8.  
9.  
Disconnect the destination scanner from the cloning cable.  
To clone another scanner, repeat steps 1 through 8.  
Caution: DO NOT scan the sourcebar code unless you are  
going to clone a scanner. If you mistakenly scan this  
bar code, reset the scanner by turning the power off  
and back on to regain normal operation.

Visual Menu  
Visual Menu Introduction  
Visual Menu provides the ability to configure a scanning device by connecting  
the scanner to the com port of a PC. Visual Menu allows you to download  
upgrades to a scanners firmware, change programmed parameters, and create  
and print programming bar codes. Using Visual Menu, you can even set up the  
configuration for a scanner which is not attached to your PC. This enables one  
expert user to establish the configuration settings for all the devices your  
company uses, then save these configuration files for others. A configuration  
file can be e-mailed or, if you prefer, an expert user can create a bar code (or  
series of bar codes) which contains all the customized programming  
parameters, and mail or fax the bar code(s) to any location. Users in other  
locations can scan the bar code(s) to load in the customized parameters.  
To communicate with a scanner, Visual Menu requires that the PC have at least  
one available serial communication port and an RS-232 cable to connect the  
port to the device. A power supply, which plugs into the cable, is also required.  
Visual Menu Operations  
The Visual Menu program performs the following operations:  
D
D
Displays all configuration data, and saves the information to a file on  
your PC.
