Getting Started  
About the Reader  
Advancements in the LED technology used in this reader significantly improve the illumination  
of the target field of view, resulting in higher scan efficiency. Whether used in Single Trigger or  
Continuous Mode, the ergonomic design of the reader will help to promote comfortable  
handling during extended periods of use.  
See "Interface Selection"on page 17 for a listing and descriptions of available interface sets by  
model type.  
Unpacking

NOTE  
Programming  
The reader is factory-configured with a set of default features standard. After scanning the  
interface barcode from the Interfaces section, you can select other options and customize your  
reader through use of the instructions and programming barcodes available in the  
corresponding features section for your interface, and also the Data Editing and Symbologies  
chapters of this manual.  
Using the Programming Barcodes  
This manual contains feature descriptions and barcodes which allow you to reconfigure your  
reader. Some programming barcode labels, like the "Standard Product Default Settings"on  
page 15, require only the scan of that single label to enact the change. Most of the programming  
labels in this manual, however, require the reader to be placed in Programming Mode prior to  
scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT barcode once to enter Programming Mode. Once the  
reader is in Programming Mode, you can scan a number of parameter settings before scanning  
the ENTER/EXIT barcode a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit  
Programming Mode and return the reader to normal operation.  
There are some exceptions to the typical programming sequence  
described above. Please read the description and setting instruc-  
tions carefully when configuring each programmable feature.  
NOTE

Resetting the Standard Product Defaults  
Select the Interface Type  
Upon completing the physical connection between the reader and its host, proceed directly to  
"Interfaces"on page 17 for information and programming for the interface type the reader is  
connected to (for example: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, USB, etc.) and scan the appropriate  
barcode in that section to select your system’s correct interface type.  
Configure Interface Settings  
If after scanning the interface barcode from the Interfaces section, your installation requires you  
to select options to further customize your reader, turn to the appropriate section for your  
interface type as listed below:

Configure Other Features  
If your installation requires different programming than the standard factory default settings,  
the following sections of this manual allow configuration of non-interface-specific settings you  
might require:  
General Features  
.
General Features includes programming for scanning, beeper and LED  
indicators and other such universal settings.  
Symbologies Includes options concerning the barcode label types (symbologies). These settings  
.
allow you to enable/disable symbologies, set label lengths, require check digit, etc.  
Resetting the Standard Product Defaults  
If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your reader, or you’ve changed some  
options and want the factory settings restored, scan the Standard Product Default Settings barcode  
below. This will copy the factory configuration for the currently active interface to the current  
configuration.  
Factory defaults are based on the interface type. Configure the  
reader for the correct interface before scanning this label.  
NOTE

Configuring the Interface  
Scan the programming barcode from this section which selects the appropriate interface type  
matching the system the reader will be connected to. Next, proceed to the corresponding  
chapter in this manual (also listed in Table 1) to configure any desired settings and features  
associated with that interface.  
Unlike some other programming features and options, inter-  
face selections require that you scan only one programming  
barcode label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT barcode prior to  
scanning an interface selection barcode.  
Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the disabled  
state when powered up. If additional scanner configuration  
is desired while in this state, pull the trigger and hold it for  
five seconds. The scanner will change to a state that allows  
programming with barcodes.

Scanning Features  
Scanning Features  
Scan Mode  
Selects the scan operating mode for the reader. Selections are:  
Trigger Single. When the trigger is pulled, scanning is activated until one of the following  
occurs:  
- Scanning Active Time has elapsed  
- a label has been read  
- the trigger is released  
This mode is associated with typical handheld reader operation: when the trigger is pulled,  
scanning starts and the product scans until the trigger is released, or a label is read, or the  
maximum Scanning Active Time has elapsed.  
Trigger Hold Multiple . When the trigger is pulled, scanning starts and the product scans until  
the trigger is released or Scanning Active Time has elapsed. Reading a label does not disable  
scanning. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads of the same label while in this  
mode.  
Trigger Pulse Multiple. When the trigger is pulled, continuous scanning is activated until  
Scanning Active Time has elapsed or the trigger has been released and pulled again. Double Read  
Timeout1 prevents undesired multiple reads of the same label while in this mode.  
Flashing. The reader flashes1 on and off regardless of the trigger status. Flash rate is controlled  
by Flash On Time and Flash Off Time. When Flash is ON the imager reads continuously; when  
Flash is OFF scanning is deactivated.  
Always On. No trigger pull is required to read a barcode. Scanning is continually on. If the  
trigger is pulled, the reader acts as if it is in Trigger Single Mode. Double Read Timeout1 prevents  
undesired multiple reads of the same label while in this mode.  
Stand Mode. No trigger pull is required to read a barcode. Scanning is turned on automatically  
when an item is placed in the reader’s field of view. If the trigger is pulled, the reader acts as if it  
in single read mode. Double Read Timeout1 prevents undesired multiple reads while in this  
mode.  
Trigger Object Sense. This mode is similar to Stand Mode, except that a trigger pull is required  
to activate the decoder.

Intercharacter Delay  
This parameter specifies the intercharacter delay between the end of one character and the  
beginning of the next. The delay can be set within a range of zero (0) to 990 milliseconds in  
10ms increments. A setting of zero specifies no delay.  
To set the delay:  
1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds.  
2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments). Pad the result with lead-  
ing zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc.

Data Editing  
Data Editing Overview  
It is not recommended to use these features with IBM inter-  
faces.  
CAUTION  
When a barcode is scanned, additional information can be sent to the host computer along with  
the barcode data. This combination of barcode data and supplementary user-defined data is  
called a “message string.” The features in this chapter can be used to build specific user-defined  
data into a message string.  
There are several types of selectable 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. Figure 6 shows the available elements you can add to a message string:  
Figure 6. Breakdown of a Message String

transmit the Label ID you  
configure for the scanned  
symbology.

Additional advanced editing is available. See Contact Technical  
Support on page 9 for more information.  
NOTE

Data Editing  
Please Keep In Mind...  
•
Modifying a message string is not a mandatory requirement. Data editing is sophisticated  
feature allowing highly customizable output for advanced users. Factory default settings  
for data editing is typically set to NONE.  
•
•
•
A prefix or suffix may be applied (reference the Symbologies chapter for these settings)  
across all symbologies (set via the Global features in this chapter).  
You can add any character from the ASCII Chart (from 00-FF) on the inside back cover of  
this manual as a prefix, suffix or Label ID.  
Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to appear on the output.  
Global Prefix/Suffix  
Up to 20 ASCII characters may be added as a prefix (in a position before the barcode data) and/  
or as a suffix (in a position following the barcode data) as indicated in Figure 7.

Example: Setting a Prefix  
In this example, we’ll set a prefix for all symbologies.  
1. Determine which ASCII character(s) are to be added to scanned barcode data. In this  
example, we’ll add a dollar sign (‘$’) as a prefix.  
2. Scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode.  
3. Scan the SET GLOBAL PREFIX barcode.  
4. Reference the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual, to find the hex value  
assigned to the desired character. The corresponding hex number for the ‘$’ character is  
24. To enter this selection code, scan the ‘2’ and ‘4’ barcodes from Appendix E, Keypad.  
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL  
barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start  
again at the beginning.  
NOTE

Global Prefix/Suffix  
5. If less than the expected string of 20 characters are selected, scan the ENTER/EXIT bar-  
code to terminate the string.  
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode once again to exit Programming Mode.  
7. The resulting message string would appear as follows:  
Scanned barcode data:12345  
Resulting message string output: $12345  
This option sets up to 20 characters each from the set of ASCII characters or any hex value from  
00 to FF. To configure this feature, scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode to place the unit in  
Programming Mode, then the “Set Global Prefix” or “Set Global Suffix,” barcode followed by  
the digits (in hex) from the Alphanumeric characters in Appendix E, Keypad representing your  
desired character(s). If less than the expected string of 20 characters are selected, scan the  
ENTER/EXIT barcode to terminate the string. Reference the section, "Example: Setting a  
Prefix"on page 108, for more information. Exit programming mode by scanning the ENTER/  
EXIT barcode once again.

Label ID  
Label ID  
A Label ID is a customizable code of up to three ASCII characters (each can be one of hex 0x01-  
0xFF), used to identify a barcode (symbology) type. It can be appended previous to or following  
the transmitted barcode data depending upon how this option is enabled. This feature provides  
options for configuring custom Label IDs as a pre-loaded set (see "Label ID: Pre-loaded Sets"on  
page 113) or individually per symbology (see "Label ID: Set Individually Per Symbology"on  
page 115). If you wish to program the reader to always include an industry standard label  
identifier for ALL symbology types, see the previous feature "Global AIM ID"on page 110.  
Label ID: Pre-loaded Sets  
The reader supports two pre-loaded sets of Label IDs. Table 17 shows the default set and  
alternate set.  
When changing from one Label ID set to another, all other reader  
configuration settings, including the host interface type, will be  
erased and set to the standard factory defaults. Any customized  
configuration will be lost.

Label ID  
Label ID: Set Individually Per Symbology  
To configure a Label ID individually for a single symbology:  
1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode.  
2. Select Label ID position as either BEFORE (Enable as Prefix) or AFTER (Enable as suf-  
fix) by scanning the appropriate barcode in the section "Label ID Control"on page 117.  
Reference Figure 9 for Label ID positioning options if multiple identification features are  
enabled.  
3. Scan a barcode to select the symbology for which you wish to configure a custom Label  
ID from the section Label ID Symbology Selection, starting on page 118.  
4. Determine the desired character(s) (you may choose up to three) which will represent the  
Label ID for the selected symbology.  
5. Turn to the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual and find the equivalent hex  
digits associated with your choice of Label ID. For example, if you wish to select an equal  
sign (=) as a Label ID, the chart indicates its associated hex characters as 3D. Turn to  
Keypad, starting on page 301 and scan the barcodes representing the hex characters deter-  
mined. For the example given, the characters ‘3’ and ‘D’ would be scanned. More exam-  
ples of Label ID settings are provided in Table 18.  
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL  
barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start  
again at the beginning.  
NOTE  
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode to exit Label ID entry.  
7. Scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode once again to exit Programming Mode.  
This completes the steps to configure a Label ID for a given symbology.

Character Conversion  
Character Conversion  
Character conversion is an eight byte configuration item. The eight bytes are 4 character pairs  
represented in hexadecimal ASCII values. The first character in the pair is the character that will  
be converted. The second character in the pair is the character to convert to. If the character to  
convert in a pair is FF, then no conversion is done.  
For example, if you have the character conversion configuration item set to the following:  
41423132FFFFFFFF  
The first pair is 4142 or AB (41 hex is an ASCII capital A, 42 hex is an ASCII capital B) and the  
second pair is 3132 or 12 (31 hex is an ASCII 1, 32 is an ASCII 2). The other two pairs are  
FFFF and FFFF.  
With the label, AB12BA21, it would look as follows after the character  
conversion: BB22BB22.  
The A characters were converted to B characters and the 1 characters were converted to 2  
characters. Nothing is done with the last two character pairs, since they are all FF.  
To set Character Conversion:  
1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode.  
2. Scan the “Configure Character Conversion” barcode.  
3. Determine the desired string. Sixteen positions must be determined as in the above exam-  
ple. Next, turn to the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual and find the  
equivalent hex digits needed to fulfill the string.  
4. Turn to Appendix E, Keypad and scan the barcodes representing the hex characters deter-  
mined in the previous step.  
5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode to exit Programming Mode.  
If less than the expected string of 16 characters are selected,  
scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode twice to accept the selections  
and exit Programming Mode.

UPC/EAN Global Settings  
This section provides configuration settings for UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN 13 and EAN 8  
symbologies, and affects all of these unless otherwise marked for each feature description.  
UPC/EAN Decoding Level  
Decoding Levels are used to configure a barcode symbology decoder to be very aggressive to  
very conservative depending on a particular customer’s needs.  
•
Choosing Level 1 results in a very conservative decoder at the expense of not being able to  
read poorly printed or damaged labels.  
•
Choosing Level 5 results in a very aggressive decoder. This aggressive behavior allows  
decoding of poorly printed and damaged labels at the expense of increasing the likelihood  
of decoding errors.  
•
Choosing Level 3, which is the default setting, allows the majority of product labels to be  
decoded.  
There are many factors that determine when to change the decoding level for a particular  
symbology. These factors include spots, voids, non-uniform bar/space widths, damaged labels,  
etc. that may be experienced in some barcode labels. If there are many hard to read or damaged  
labels that cannot be decoded using a conservative setting, increase the decoding level to be  
more aggressive. If the majority of labels are very good quality labels, or there is a need to  
decrease the possibility of a decoder error, lower the decoding level to a more conservative level.

UPC/EAN Correlation  
When correlation is enabled, the barcode reader will combine label data from multiple scans

or voids. It may also help read labels that have damaged areas. Enabling correlation will also  
increase the chances that a label will be read incorrectly.

Code 39 Decoding Level  
Decoding Levels are used to configure a barcode symbology decoder to be very aggressive to  
very conservative depending on a particular customer’s needs.  
•
Choosing Level 1 results in a very conservative decoder at the expense of not being able to  
read poorly printed or damaged labels.  
•
Choosing Level 5 results in a very aggressive decoder. This aggressive behavior allows  
decoding of poorly printed and damaged labels at the expense of increasing the likelihood  
of decoding errors.  
•
Choosing Level 3, which is the default setting, allows the majority of product labels to be  
decoded.  
There are many factors that determine when to change the decoding level for a particular  
symbology. These factors include spots, voids, non-uniform bar/space widths, damaged labels,  
etc. that may be experienced in some barcode labels. If there are many hard to read or damaged  
labels that cannot be decoded using a conservative setting, increase the decoding level to be  
more aggressive. If the majority of labels are very good quality labels, or there is a need to  
decrease the possibility of a decoder error, lower the decoding level to a more conservative level.  
This configuration item applies to Code 39 and Code 32.

Code 128 Decoding Level  
Decoding Levels are used to configure a barcode symbology decoder to be very aggressive to  
very conservative depending on a particular customer’s needs.  
•
Choosing Level 1 results in a very conservative decoder at the expense of not being able to  
read poorly printed or damaged labels.  
•
Choosing Level 5 results in a very aggressive decoder. This aggressive behavior allows  
decoding of poorly printed and damaged labels at the expense of increasing the likelihood  
of decoding errors.  
•
Choosing Level 3, which is the default setting, allows the majority of product labels to be  
decoded.  
There are many factors that determine when to change the decoding level for a particular  
symbology. These factors include spots, voids, non-uniform bar/space widths, damaged labels,  
etc. that may be experienced in some barcode labels. If there are many hard to read or damaged  
labels that cannot be decoded using a conservative setting, increase the decoding level to be  
more aggressive. If the majority of labels are very good quality labels, or there is a need to  
decrease the possibility of a decoder error, lower the decoding level to a more conservative level.

NOTE  
Decoding Levels are used to configure a barcode symbology decoder to be very aggressive to  
very conservative depending on a particular customer’s needs.

Choosing Level 5 results in a very aggressive decoder. This aggressive behavior allows  
decoding of poorly printed and damaged labels at the expense of increasing the likelihood

There are many factors that determine when to change the decoding level for a particular  
symbology. These factors include spots, voids, non-uniform bar/space widths, damaged labels,  
etc. that may be experienced in some barcode labels. If there are many hard to read or damaged  
labels that cannot be decoded using a conservative setting, increase the decoding level to be

Datalogic 2 of 5 Set Length 1  
This feature specifies one of the barcode lengths for Datalogic 2 of 5 Length Control. Length 1 is  
the minimum label length if in Variable Length Mode, or the first fixed length if in Fixed Length  
Mode. The length includes the barcode’s check and data characters.  
The length can be set from 2 to 50 characters in increments of two.  
Follow these instructions to set this feature:  
1. Determine the desired character length (from 2 to 50). The length must be an even num-  
ber.  
2. Pad the result with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20,  
etc.  
3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming  
Mode.  
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT I 2 of 5 LENGTH 1 SETTING.  
5. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix E, Keypad, that represent the  
length setting which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indica-  
tion after the last character.  
If you make a mistake before the last character scan the CANCEL  
barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start  
again at the beginning.

Codabar Decoding Level  
Decoding Levels are used to configure a barcode symbology decoder to be very aggressive to  
very conservative depending on a particular customer’s needs.  
•
Choosing Level 1 results in a very conservative decoder at the expense of not being able to  
read poorly printed or damaged labels.  
•
Choosing Level 5 results in a very aggressive decoder. This aggressive behavior allows  
decoding of poorly printed and damaged labels at the expense of increasing the likelihood  
of decoding errors.  
•
Choosing Level 3, which is the default setting, allows the majority of product labels to be  
decoded.  
There are many factors that determine when to change the decoding level for a particular  
symbology. These factors include spots, voids, non-uniform bar/space widths, damaged labels,  
etc. that may be experienced in some barcode labels. If there are many hard to read or damaged  
labels that cannot be decoded using a conservative setting, increase the decoding level to be  
more aggressive. If the majority of labels are very good quality labels, or there is a need to  
decrease the possibility of a decoder error, lower the decoding level to a more conservative level.

Code 11 Decoding Level  
Decoding Levels are used to configure a barcode symbology decoder to be very aggressive to  
very conservative depending on a particular customer’s needs.  
•
Choosing Level 1 results in a very conservative decoder at the expense of not being able to  
read poorly printed or damaged labels.  
•
Choosing Level 5 results in a very aggressive decoder. This aggressive behavior allows  
decoding of poorly printed and damaged labels at the expense of increasing the likelihood  
of decoding errors.  
•
Choosing Level 3, which is the default setting, allows the majority of product labels to be  
decoded.  
There are many factors that determine when to change the decoding level for a particular  
symbology. These factors include spots, voids, non-uniform bar/space widths, damaged labels,  
etc. that may be experienced in some barcode labels. If there are many hard to read or damaged  
labels that cannot be decoded using a conservative setting, increase the decoding level to be  
more aggressive. If the majority of labels are very good quality labels, or there is a need to  
decrease the possibility of a decoder error, lower the decoding level to a more conservative level.

Standard 2 of 5 Set Length 1  
This feature specifies one of the barcode lengths for Standard 2 of 5 Length Control. Length 1 is  
the minimum label length if in Variable Length Mode, or the first fixed length if in Fixed Length  
Mode. Length includes the barcode’s check and data characters.  
The length can be set from 1 to 50 characters.  
Follow these instructions to set this feature:  
1. Determine the desired character length (from 1 to 50). Pad the number with leading  
zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc.  
2. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming  
Mode.  
3. Scan the barcode: SELECT STANDARD 2 OF 5 LENGTH 1 SETTING.  
4. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix E, Keypad, that represent the  
length setting which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indica-  
tion after the last character.  
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL  
barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start  
again at the beginning.

Symbologies  
Code 4 and Code 5 Common Configuration Items  
The following options apply to both Code 4 and Code 5 symbologies.  
Code 4 and 5 Decoding Level  
Decoding Levels are used to configure a barcode symbology decoder to be very aggressive to  
very conservative depending on a particular customer’s needs.  
•
Choosing Level 1 results in a very conservative decoder at the expense of not being able to  
read poorly printed or damaged labels.  
•
Choosing Level 5 results in a very aggressive decoder. This aggressive behavior allows  
decoding of poorly printed and damaged labels at the expense of increasing the likelihood  
of decoding errors.  
•
Choosing Level 3, which is the default setting, allows the majority of product labels to be  
decoded.  
There are many factors that determine when to change the decoding level for a particular  
symbology. These factors include spots, voids, non-uniform bar/space widths, damaged labels,  
etc. that may be experienced in some barcode labels. If there are many hard to read or damaged  
labels that cannot be decoded using a conservative setting, increase the decoding level to be  
more aggressive. If the majority of labels are very good quality labels, or there is a need to  
decrease the possibility of a decoder error, lower the decoding level to a more conservative level.  
This configuration item applies to Code 4 and Code 5.

Scancode Tables  
Control Character Emulation  
Control character emulation selects from different scancode tables as listed in this appendix.  
Each of the control character sets below are detailed by interface type in the tables. These apply  
to Wedge and USB Keyboard platforms.  
Control Character 00 . Characters from 00 to 0x1F are sent as control character Ctrl+Keys,  
special keys are located from 0x80 to 0xA1.  
Control Character 01 . Characters from 00 to 0x1F are sent as control character Ctrl+Capital  
Key, special keys are located from 0x80 to 0xA1.  
Control Character 02 . Special keys are located from 00 to 0x1F and characters from 0x80 to  
0xFE are intended as an extended ASCII table (Microsoft Windows Codepage 1252 — See  
page -314.)  
Single Press and Release Keys  
In the following tables, ArĻ means Alt right pressed and ArĹ means Alt right released and so on.  
Definitions for other keys are Al (Alt left ), Cr (Control Right ) Cl (Control Left ) Sh (shift).  
This method can be used for combining Alt, Control or Shift with other keys.  
Example: Consider a Control character set to 00. If AltRight+A is required before sending a  
label to the host, it could be done by setting three Prefix keys in this way: 0x99 0x41 0x9A.
