To determine if your cordless system is set up correctly, scan one of the sample barcodes in the back of this manual.
When data is scanned, the data is sent to the host system via the base unit. The cordless image scanner recognizes data acknowledgement (ACK) from the base unit. If it cannot be determined that the data has been properly sent to the base, the image scanner issues an error indication. You must then check to see if the scanned data was received by the host system.
Linear barcode 2D Matrix symbol The aiming beam is smaller when the image scanner is closer to the code and larger when it is farther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil size) should be read farther from the unit.
2 Programming the Interface Introduction Chapter 1 describes connecting the base to the computer with the appropriate interface cable. This chapter describes how to program your system for the desired interface. Programming the Interface - Plug and Play Plug and Play barcodes provide instant image scanner set up for commonly used interfaces. Note: After you scan one of the codes, power cycle the host terminal to have the interface in effect.
RS-232 The RS-232 Interface barcode is used when connecting to the serial port of a PC or terminal. The following RS-232 Interface barcode also programs a carriage return (CR) and a line feed (LF) suffix, baud rate, and data format as indicated below. It also changes the trigger mode to manual.
IBM 4683 Ports 5B, 9B, and 17 Interface Scan one of the following “Plug and Play” codes to program the image scanner for IBM 4683 Port 5B, 9B, or 17. Note: After scanning one of these codes, you must power cycle the cash register.

Shift Lock is used when you normally have the Shift Lock key on (not common to U.S. keyboards). Shift Lock Automatic Caps Lock is used if you change the Caps Lock key on and off. The software tracks and reflects if you have Caps Lock on or off (AT and PS/2 only). This selection can only be used with systems that have an LED which notes the Caps Lock status. Automatic Caps Lock Autocaps via NumLock barcode should be scanned in countries (e.g.
support all keyboard country codes. New users should use the Windows mode. Refer to Keyboard Function Relationships, page 10-1 for CTRL+ ASCII Values. Default = Control + ASCII Mode Off Windows Mode Control + ASCII Mode On * Control + ASCII Mode Off DOS Mode Control + ASCII Mode On Turbo Mode: The image scanner sends characters to a terminal faster. If the terminal drops characters, do not use Turbo Mode.
Automatic Direct Connect Mode: This selection can be used if you have an IBM AT style terminal and the system is dropping characters.
RS-232 Baud Rate Baud Rate sends the data from the image scanner to the terminal at the specified rate. The host terminal must be set for the same baud rate as the image scanner. Default = 115,200. 300 600 1200 2400 4800 9600 19200 38400 57,600 * 115,200 RS-232 Word Length: Data Bits, Stop Bits, and Parity Data Bits sets the word length at 7 or 8 bits of data per character.

Default = None. 7 Data, 1 Stop, Parity Even 7 Data, 1 Stop, Parity None 7 Data, 1 Stop, Parity Odd 7 Data, 2 Stop, Parity Even 7 Data, 2 Stop Parity None 7 Data, 2 Stop, Parity Odd 8 Data, 1 Stop, Parity Even * 8 Data, 1 Stop, Parity None 8 Data, 1 Stop, Parity Odd RS-232 Receiver Time-Out The unit stays awake to receive data until the RS-232 Receiver Time-Out expires. A manual or serial trigger resets the time-out.
RS-232 Handshaking RS-232 Handshaking allows control of data transmission from the image scanner using software commands from the host device. CTS/RTS operates in mode 2. When this feature is turned Off, no data flow control is used. When Data Flow Control is turned On, the host device suspends transmission by sending the XOFF character (DC3, hex 13) to the image scanner. To resume transmission, the host sends the XON character (DC1, hex 11). Data transmission continues where it left off when XOFF was sent.
Escape commands are addressed to the image scanner via “Application Work Groups.” Once a command is sent, all image scanners in a group respond to that command. Because of this situation, it is recommended that each image scanner is assigned to its own group in Host ACK mode. The commands to which the image scanner responds are listed on page 2-21. The is a 1B in hex.

The Code 39 Format barcode below sets the terminal ID to 61, and the Same Code Format barcode sets the terminal ID to 64. Default = Code 39 Format. * Code 39 Format Same Code Format Wand Emulation Data Block Size This transmits the data in smaller blocks to prevent buffer overflow. Default = 40.
Wand Emulation Delay Between Blocks This sets the delay time between data blocks. Default = 50ms. 5ms * 50ms 150ms 500ms Wand Emulation Overall Checksum When this option is turned on, a computed check character is added at the end of the entire message. The check character is the character which when Exclusive-OR’d with every preceding character of the message yields a result of 0x00 (00H). Default = Off.
Wand Emulation Transmission Rate The Transmission Rate is limited by the terminal’s ability to receive data without dropping characters. Default = 25 inches/second. 10 * 25 40 80 120 150 200 Wand Emulation Polarity The Polarity can be sent as standard with black bars high, or reversed with white spaces high. Default = Black High.
Wand Emulation Idle The idle describes the state of the image scanner when no data is being transmitted. When in Wand Emulation mode, you must set the image scanner’s idle state to match the idle state for the device to which the image scanner is connected. Default = Idle High.

3 Basic System Operation Cordless Base The cordless base provides the link between the cordless image scanner and the host system. The base contains an interface assembly and an RF communication module. The RF communication module performs the data exchange between the cordless image scanner and the interface assembly.
System Conditions The components of the cordless system interact in specific ways as you associate an image scanner to a base, as you move an image scanner out of range, bring an image scanner back in range, or swap image scanners between two cordless systems. The following information explains the cordless system operating conditions.
Base Charge Mode In order for the battery to be charged, there must be enough voltage for the circuitry to work. There are three methods during which power can be supplied to the base: 1:9VDC power supply connected to the barrel connector 2:12VDC host power source only 3:5VDC host power source only The chart below describes each selection by condition.
Beeper and LED Sequences and Meaning The image scanner contains LEDs on the top of the unit to indicate its power up, communication, and battery status. Simply stated, red LED = error; green LED = success of any type. The unit’s audible indicators have meaning as well: 3 beeps = error; 2 beeps = menu change; 1 beep = all other successes. The table below lists the indication and cause of the LED illumination and beeps for the image scanner.
The table below list the indication and cause of the LED illumination and beeps for the 2020. System Condition System Status Indicator (Red LED) Power On/System Idle LED is on Receiving Data (2020 only) Blink LED for short duration in multiple pulses. Occurs while transferring data to/from the RF module or the Host port. Base requests status from its own Bluetooth radio Blink LED once (occurs approx.
Locked Link Mode - Single Image Scanner If you link an image scanner to a base using the Locked Link Mode, other image scanners are blocked from being linked if they are inadvertently placed into the base. If you do place a different image scanner into the base, it will charge the image scanner, but the image scanner will not be linked. * Locked Link Mode (Single Image Scanner) To use a different image scanner, you need to unlink the original image scanner by scanning the Unlink Image Scanner barcode.
Multiple Image Scanner Operation Note: Multiple Image Scanner Operation Mode allows you to link up to 7 image scanners to one base. You cannot join an 8th image scanner until you unlink one of the 7 image scanners or take an image scanner out of range. To put the image scanner in multiple image scanner mode, scan the barcode below. Once you scan this barcode, the image scanner is unlinked from the base and must be placed into the base to re-link.
To rename image scanners with sequential, numeric names, scan the barcodes below. Scan the Reset code after each name change and wait for the scanner to re-link to the base before scanning another barcode to rename the next image scanner. 0001 0002 0003 0004 0005 0006 0007 Reset Alternatively, you may change the name with a barcode command if you cannot send serial commands to the base. One way to do this is to scan the barcode below and scan a number for the image scanner name.

and then set the time-out duration (from 0-3000 seconds) by scanning digits on the Programming Chart inside the back cover, then scanning Save. Default = 0 sec (no alarm). Base Alarm Duration Image Scanner Alarm Duration Note: If you are out of range when you scan a barcode, you will receive an error beep even if you do not have the alarm set. You receive the error beep since the data could not be communicated to the base or the host.
Data Accumulation Mode Note: Data Accumulation mode has limitations when using multiple scanners to one base. If a cordless system is being used in "multiple link mode" where up to 7 scanners are to be connected to one base, some accumulated or batched scans could be lost if scanners are constantly being moved in and out of range. Scan the barcodes below to turn data accumulation (batch) mode on and off.
Batch Mode Transmit Delay Sometimes when accumulated scans are sent to the host system, the transmission of those scans is too fast for the application to process. To program a transmit delay between accumulated scans, scan one of the following delays. Default = Off. Note: In most cases, a short (250 ms (milliseconds) delay is ideal; however, longer delays may be programmed. Contact Technical Support (page 153) for additional information.

4 Output Good Read Indicators Beeper – Good Read The beeper may be programmed On or Off in response to a good read. Turning this option off, only turns off the beeper response to a good read indication. All error and menu beeps are still audible. Default = On. * Beeper - Good Read On Beeper - Good Read Off Beeper Volume – Good Read The beeper volume codes modify the volume of the beep the image scanner emits on a good read. Default = Medium.
Beeper Pitch – Good Read The beeper pitch codes modify the pitch (frequency) of the beep the image scanner emits on a good read. Default = Medium. Low (1600 Hz) * Medium (3250 Hz) High (4200 Hz) Beeper Duration – Good Read The beeper duration codes modify the length of the beep the image scanner emits on a good read. Default = Normal. * Normal Beep Short Beep LED – Good Read The LED indicator can be programmed On or Off in response to a good read. Default = On.
scan the barcode below and then scan a digit (1-9) barcode and the Save barcode on the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. Default = 1. Number of Beeps/LED Flashes Good Read Delay This sets the minimum amount of time before the image scanner can read another barcode. Default = 0 ms (No Delay).
Serial Trigger Modes Manual/Serial Trigger, Low Power You can activate the image scanner either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trigger command (see Trigger Commands on page 12-4). When in manual trigger mode, the image scanner scans until a barcode is read, or until the trigger is released. When in serial mode, the image scanner scans until a barcode has been read or until the deactivate command is sent.
If there are no trigger pulls during the timer interval, the image scanner goes into power down mode. Whenever the trigger is enabled, the timer is reset. If the image scanner is placed in the 2020 cradle and the battery is in the process of being charged, the image scanner will not go into power down mode. Default = 3600 seconds. 0 seconds 200 seconds 400 seconds 900 seconds * 3600 seconds 7200 seconds Note: When the image scanner is in power down mode, pull the trigger to power the unit back up.
Scan Stand Mode When a unit is in Scan Stand mode, it remains idle as long as it sees the Scan Stand symbol, below. When a different code is presented, the image scanner is triggered to read the new code. Note: The image scanner automatically adjusts the illumination LEDs to the lowest light level possible to maintain a good lock on the Scan Stand symbol. When a symbol is presented, the image scanner’s light levels adjust to the saved setting (see LED Power Level on page 4-10).
Presentation Mode Scanning the barcode below programs the image scanner to work in Presentation Mode. Presentation Mode uses ambient light to detect barcodes. The LEDs are off until a barcode is presented to the image scanner, then the LEDs turn on automatically to read the code. If the light level in the room is not high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly. Presentation Mode Note: The operation of advanced illumination units and non-advanced illumination units differs slightly.
Presentation Sensitivity Presentation Sensitivity is a numeric range that increases or decreases the image scanner's reaction time to barcode presentation. To set the sensitivity, scan the Sensitivity barcode, then scan the degree of sensitivity (from 0-20) from the inside back cover, and Save. 0 is the most sensitive setting, and 20 is the least sensitive. Default = 1.
Image Snap and Ship Image Snap and Ship tells the imager to take a picture (rather than read a barcode) when the trigger is pressed. Once the picture is snapped, it is shipped to the host system as a jpeg file by default. To revert to barcode reading, you must change to a different trigger mode (see Serial Trigger Modes beginning on page 4-4). Image Snap and Ship Hands Free Time-Out The Scan Stand and Presentation Modes are referred to as “hands free” modes.
Use shorter delays in applications where repetitive barcode scanning is required. Reread Delay only works when in Presentation Mode (see page 4-7). Default = Medium. Short (500 ms) * Medium (750 ms) Long (1000 ms) Extra Long (2000 ms) User-Specified Reread Delay If you want to set your own length for the reread delay, scan the barcode below, then set the delay (from 0-30,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the inside back cover, then scanning Save.
If you have an aimer delay programmed (see Aimer Delay on page 4-12), the aimer will be at 100% power during the delay, regardless of the LED Power Level. Note: If you scan the Off barcode, both the aimer and illumination lights turn off, making it impossible to scan barcodes in low light. To turn the LED Power Level back on, move to a brightly lit area and scan either the Low or the High barcode below.
Aimer Delay The aimer delay allows a delay time for the operator to aim the image scanner before the picture is taken. Use these codes to set the time between when the trigger is pulled and when the picture is taken. During the delay time, the aiming light will appear, but the LEDs won’t turn on until the delay time is over. Default = Off.
Centering Use Centering to narrow the image scanner’s field of view to make sure the image scanner reads only those barcodes intended by the user. For instance, if multiple codes are placed closely together, centering will insure that only the desired codes are read. (Centering can be used in conjunction with Aimer Delay, page 4-12, for the most error-free operation in applications where multiple codes are spaced closely together.
Scan Centering On, then scan one of the following barcodes to change the top, bottom, left, or right of the centering window. Then scan the percent you want to shift the centering window using digits on the inside back cover of this manual. Scan Save. Default Centering = 40% for Top and Left, 60% for Bottom and Right.
Quick Omnidirectional - This is an abbreviated search for barcode features around the center region of an image. This mode quickly reads all symbologies in any orientation. The Quick Omnidirectional mode may miss some off-center symbols, as well as larger Data Matrix and QR Code symbols. Quick Omnidirectional Preferred Symbology Note: This selection does not apply to OCR.
High Priority Symbology To specify the high priority symbology, scan the High Priority Symbology bar code below. On the Symbology Chart on page A-1, find the symbology you want to set as high priority. Locate the Hex value for that symbology and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart (inside back cover). Scan Save to save your selection. Default = None High Priority Symbology Low Priority Symbology To specify the low priority symbology, scan the Low Priority Symbology bar code below.
Output Sequence Overview Require Output Sequence When turned off, the barcode data will be output to the host as the image scanner decodes it. When turned on, all output data must conform to an edited sequence or the image scanner will not transmit the output data to the host device. Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection is turned on.
•Discard This exits without saving any Output Sequence changes. Output Sequence Example In this example, you are scanning Code 93, Code 128, and Code 39 barcodes, but you want the image scanner to output Code 39 1st, Code 128 2nd, and Code 93 3rd, as shown below. Note: Code 93 must be enabled to use this example.
To program the previous example using specific lengths, you would have to count any programmed prefixes, suffixes, or formatted characters as part of the length.
When the output sequence is Off, the barcode data is output to the host as the image scanner decodes it. Default = Off. Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection is turned on. Required On/Not Required *Off Multiple Symbols When this programming selection is turned On, it allows you to read multiple symbols with a single pull of the image scanner’s trigger.
No Read With No Read turned On, the image scanner notifies you if a code cannot be read. If using a QuickView Scan Data Window, an “NR” appears when a code cannot be read. If No Read is turned Off, the “NR” will not appear. Default = Off. On * Off If you want a different notation than “NR,” for example, “Error,” or “Bad Code,” you can edit the output message using the Data Formatter (page 6-5). The hex code for the No Read symbol is 9C.
Video Reverse Video Reverse is used to allow the image scanner to read barcodes that are inverted. The Off barcode below is an example of this type of barcode. If additional menuing is required, Video Reverse must be disabled to read the menu barcodes and then re-enabled after menuing is completed. Default = Off. Note: Images downloaded from the unit will not be reversed. This is a setting for decoding only. On * Off Working Orientation Some barcodes are direction-sensitive.

5 Data Editing Prefix/Suffix Overview When a barcode is scanned, additional information is sent to the host computer along with the barcode data. This group of barcode 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.
which you want to apply the prefix or suffix. For example, for Code 128, Code ID is “j” and Hex ID is “6A”. Step 3. Scan the 2 hex digits from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies. Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252) on page A-4, 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 of this manual. Step 6.
Step 1. Scan the Clear One Prefix or Clear One Suffix symbol. Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in the Symbology Chart, beginning on page A-1) 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 of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies. Your change is automatically saved.
Prefix Selections Add Prefix Clear One Prefix Clear All Prefixes Suffix Selections Add Suffix Clear One Suffix Clear All Suffixes Function Code Transmit When this selection is enabled and function codes are contained within the scanned data, the image scanner transmits the function code to the terminal. Charts of these function codes are provided in Supported Interface Keys starting on page 10-3.
Intercharacter, Interfunction, and Intermessage Delays Some terminals drop information (characters) if data comes through too quickly. Intercharacter, interfunction, and intermessage delays slow the transmission of data, increasing data integrity. Each delay is composed of a 5 millisecond step. You can program up to 99 steps (of 5 ms each) for a range of 0-495 ms. Intercharacter Delay An intercharacter delay of up to 495 milliseconds may be placed between the transmission of each character of scanned data.
Next, scan the Character to Trigger Delay barcode, then the 2-digit hex value for the ASCII character that will trigger the delay Code Page Mapping of Printed Barcodes on page A-7. Delay Length Character to Trigger Delay To remove this delay, scan the Delay Length barcode, and set the number of steps to 0. Scan the Save barcode using the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual.
Intermessage Delay An intermessage delay of up to 495 milliseconds may be placed between each scan transmission. Scan the Intermessage Delay barcode below, then scan the number of milliseconds and the Save barcode using the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. 1st Scan Transmission 2nd Scan Transmission Intermessage Delay Intermessage Delay To remove this delay, scan the Intermessage Delay barcode, then set the number of steps to 0.

6 Data Formatting Data Format Editor Introduction You may use the Data Format Editor to change the image scanner’s output. For example, you can use the Data Format Editor to insert characters at certain points in barcode data as it is scanned. The selections in the following pages are used only if you wish to alter the output. Default Data Format setting = None.
Step 4. Code I.D. In the Symbology Chart, beginning on page A-1, 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 inside the back cover of this manual. 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 inside the back cover of this manual. (Note: 50 characters is entered as 0050.
F4 Send “xx” character “nn” times (Insert) leaving cursor in current cursor position. Syntax = F4xxnn (xx stands for the hex value for an ASCII code, see Code Page Mapping of Printed Barcodes on page A-7, and nn is the numeric value (00-99) for the number of times it should be sent.) E9 Send all but the last “nn” characters, starting from the current cursor position. Syntax = E9nn (nn is the numeric value (00-99) for the number of characters that will not be sent at the end of the message.
E5 FE EC ED ters to be replaced and xx2 defines replacement characters, continuing through zz1 and zz2. Terminates character replacement. Syntax = E5. Compare character in current cursor position to the character “xx.” If characters are equal, increment cursor. If characters are not equal, no format match. Syntax = FExx (xx stands for the hex value for an ASCII code, see Code Page Mapping of Printed Barcodes on page A-7.) Check to make sure there is an ASCII number at the current cursor position.
Data Format Editor Enter Data Format * Default Data Format Clear One Data Format Clear All Data Formats Save Discard Data Formatter When Data Formatter is turned off, the barcode data is output to the host as read (including prefixes and suffixes). Choose one of the following options. Default = Data Formatter On, but Not Required.
Alternate Data Formats Alternate formats allow you “single shot” capability to scan one barcode using a different data format than your primary format. When data formats are programmed (see page 6-1), 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 barcodes below.
7 Symbologies This programming section contains the following menu selections. Refer to Chapter 12 for settings and defaults.

8 Imaging Commands The image scanner is like a digital camera in the way it captures, manipulates, and transfers images. The following commands allow you to alter the way the imager performs these functions. Single-Use Basis Imaging Commands with their modifiers send instructions to the imager on a single-use basis, and take effect for a single image capture. Once that capture is complete, the imager reverts to its imaging default settings.
Step 1 - Take a Picture Using IMGSNP Image Snap - IMGSNP An image is taken whenever the hardware button is pressed, or when the Image Snap (IMGSNP) command is processed. The image snap command has many different modifiers that can be used to change the look of the image in memory. Modifiers always begin with numbers and end with a letter (case insensitive). Any number of modifiers may be appended to the IMGSNP command.
L - LED State Determines if the LEDs should be on or off, and when. Ambient illumination (0L) is preferred for taking pictures of color documents, such as ID cards, especially when the imager is in a stand. LED illumination (1L) is preferred when the imager is handheld. LED State is not available when using Decoding Style (0P). 0L LEDs off (default) 1L LEDs on E - Exposure Exposure is used in Manual Style only (2P), and allows you to set the exposure time.
G - Gain Gain is used in Manual Style only (2P). Like a volume control, the gain modifier boosts the signal and multiplies the pixel value. As you increase the gain, the noise in an image is also amplified. 1G No gain (default) 2G Medium gain 4G Heavy gain 8G Maximum gain Example of Gain at Example of Gain at 1G: 4G: Example of Gain at 8G: W - Target White Value Sets the target for the median grayscale value in the captured image.
% - Target Set Point Percentage Sets the target point for the light and dark values in the captured image. A setting of 75% means 75% of the pixels are at or below the target white value, and 25% of the pixels are above the target white value. Altering this setting from the default is not recommended under normal circumstances. To alter grayscale values, W - Target White Value should be used.
IMGSHP Modifiers A - Infinity Filter Enhances pictures taken from very long distances (greater than 10 feet or 3m). The Infinity Filter should not be used with IMGSHP Modifiers (page 8-6). 0A Infinity filter off (default) 1A Infinity filter on Example of Infinity Filter off (0A) from approximately 12 feet (3.66m) away: Example of Infinity Filter on (1A) from approximately 12 feet (3.66m) away: C - Compensation Flattens the image to account for variations in illumination across the image.
E - Edge Sharpen An edge sharpen filter cleans up the edges of an image, making it look cleaner and sharper. While edge sharpening does make the image look cleaner, it also removes some fine detail from the original image. The strength of the edge sharpen filter can be entered from 1 to 24. Entering a 23E gives the sharpest edges, but also increases noise in the image.
H - Histogram Stretch Increases the contrast of the transmitted image. Not available with some image formats. 0H No stretch (default) 1H Histogram stretch Example of Histogram Stretch at 0H: Example of Histogram Stretch at 1H: I - Invert Image Invert image is used to rotate the image around the X or Y axis.
IF- Noise Reduction Used to reduce the salt and pepper noise in an image.
IR - Image Rotate 0ir Image as snapped (rightside up) (default) 1ir Rotate image 90 degrees to the right 2ir Rotate image 180 degrees (upside down) 3ir Rotate image 90 degrees to the left Example of Image Rotate set to 0ir: Example of Image Rotate set to 2ir: Example of Image Rotate set to 1ir: Example of Image Rotate set to 3ir: J - JPEG Image Quality Sets the desired quality when the JPEG image format is selected. Higher numbers result in higher quality, but larger files.
K - Gamma Correction Gamma measures the brightness of midtone values produced by the image. You can brighten or darken an image using gamma correction. A higher gamma correction yields an overall brighter image. The lower the setting, the darker the image. The optimal setting for text images is 50K.
nB The bottom edge of the shipped image corresponds to row n - 1 of the image in memory. Range: 000 - 480. (Default = all rows) Uncropped Image: Example of Image Crop set to 300R: Example of Image Crop set to 200B: Example of Image Crop set to 300L: Example of Image Crop set to 200T: Alternately, specify the number of pixels to cut from the outside margin of the image; thus only the center pixels are transmitted.
S - Pixel Ship Pixel Ship sizes an image in proportion to its original size. It decimates the image by shipping only certain, regularly spaced pixels. For example, 4S would transmit every fourth pixel from every fourth line. The smaller number of pixels shipped, the smaller the image, however, after a certain point the image becomes unusable.
This filter typically provides better JPEG compression than the standard E Edge Sharpen command (see page 8-15). This filter also works well when shipping pure black and white images (1 bit per pixel). The optimal setting is 26U. 0U Document image filter off (default) 26U Apply document image filter for typical document image nU Apply document image filter using grayscale threshold n. Use lower numbers when the image contrast is lower.
W - Histogram Ship A histogram gives a quick picture of the tonal range of an image, or key type. A low-key image has detail concentrated in the shadows; a high-key image has detail concentrated in the highlights; and an average-key image has detail concentrated in the midtones. This modifier ships the histogram for an image.
the signature area is from the barcode, vertically and horizontally. You can also set the resolution and file format for the final output of the signature capture image. Note: IMGBOX commands can only be triggered by one of the following types of barcodes: PDF417, Code 39, Code 128, Aztec, Codabar, and Interleaved 2 of 5. Once one of these symbologies has been read, the image is retained for a possible IMGBOX command. The following IMGBOX example was executed and viewed using QuickView software.
IMGBOX Modifiers A - Output Image Width This option is used to size the image horizontally. If using this option, set the resolution (R) to zero. Example of Image Width set to 200A: Example of Image Width set to 600A: B - Output Image Height This option is used to size the image vertically. If using this option, set the resolution (R) to zero.
F - File Format This option indicates the type of file format in which to save the image. 0F KIM format 1F TIFF binary 2F TIFF binary group 4, compressed 3F TIFF grayscale 4F Uncompressed Binary 5F Uncompressed grayscale 6F JPEG image (default) 7F Outlined image 8F BMP format H - Height of Signature Capture Area The height of the signature capture area must be measured in inches divided by .01. In the example, the height of the area to be captured is 3/8 inch, resulting in a value of H = .
R - Resolution of Signature Capture Area The resolution is the number of pixels that the imager outputs per each minimum bar width. The higher the value for R, the higher the quality of the image, but also the larger the file size. Values begin at 1000. The imager automatically inserts a decimal point between the first and second digit. For example, use 2500 to specify a resolution of 2.5. Set to zero when using the A and B modifiers (see A - Output Image Width and B - Output Image Height on page 8-17).
X - Horizontal Barcode Offset The horizontal barcode offset allows you to offset the horizontal center of the signature capture area. Positive values move the horizontal center to the right and negative values to the left. Measurements are in multiples of the minimum bar width. Example of Horizontal Offset set to 75X: Example of Horizontal Offset set to -75X: Y - Vertical Barcode Offset The vertical barcode offset allows you to offset the vertical center of the signature capture area.
9 OCR Programming Use this section to program the image scanner for optical character recognition (OCR). The image scanner reads 6 to 60 point OCR typeface. Note: OCR is not as secure as barcodes. To enhance security in OCR applications, create an OCR template to match the data and print an OCR check character. The image scanner will read OCR-A, OCR-B, U.S. Currency Serial Number (Money), MICR E-13B, and SEMI Font.
OCR-B On allows you to scan characters in the OCR-B font. The default setting allows you to scan any eight digit combination. If you have created an OCR template, character combinations that fit the template can be scanned (see Creating an OCR Template, page 9-3). OCR-B On U.S. Currency Font U.S. Currency On allows you to scan characters in the font used on U.S. currency. The default setting allows you to scan any eight digit combination.
SEMI Font SEMI Font On allows you to scan the SEMI font used in the semiconductor industry. SEMI Font On All OCR Off turns off all OCR capability in the image scanner, so the image scanner will be able to scan linear, stacked, matrix, and composite barcodes, but not OCR fonts. However, any OCR templates you have created will be retained in memory.
Template Characters a represents any alphanumeric character (digit or letter) c represents a check character position d represents any digit e represents any available OCR character g represents character from user-defined variable “g” h represents character from user-defined variable “h” i represents character from user-defined variable “g” or “h” k represents that a check character is verified but transmitted l represents any uppercase letter t marks the start of a new template r mult
Character Match Sequences This method is used if you need a template that shows a specific character in a specific position. Put the character in uppercase in the template at the required position (template characters are always lower case). Example: You need to read three variable digits, three specific characters (ABC), followed by three variable digits.
To create this template, you would enable the OCR-A font. Scan the Enter OCR Template symbol (page 9-13). Scan the d from the OCR Programming Chart in the back of this manual eight times, then scan the t to create the “or” statement. Then you would scan the characters for the second template. Scan d four times, scan l two times, then scan d two more times. Scan Save OCR Template (page 9-13).
Reading Multi-Row OCR The image scanner is capable of decoding multi-row OCR text. Note: Reading rows longer than sixteen characters is not recommended. Consider the following example. This example shows serial commands as they would be entered using QuickView. Example: You need to read multiple rows of OCR-A data as shown below: 12345678 ABCDEFGH First, enable the OCR-A font. To read the first row of OCR data, you would program the following template: OCRTMP"dddddddd".
character. The image scanner transmits the OCR data without the check character data. You must specify the location of the check character in the template with a c. Example: You need to read any combination of seven digits, with a modulo 10 check character in the eighth position. The template would be: dddddddc To create this template, you would enable the OCR-A font. Scan the Modulo 10 Check Character symbol.
for the calculation. By default, the check character computation is unweighted, but the image scanner also supports two weighted modulo 10 checking schemes.
Weighting Options By default, the check character computation is unweighted. It is possible to use one of two weighted modulo 10 schemes. Weighting is often used to detect if two neighboring characters are transposed, a common error when an operator keys in data. 3-1-3-1 Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character Starting with the check character and working backward through the message, the image scanner applies a multiplier of 1, then 3, then 1, then 3, and so on.
checking scheme used in MSI Code and in Code 32 Pharmaceutical (PARAF). To apply this weighting scheme, set the OCR check character to "0123456789x2x1" or scan the following symbol: 2-1-2-1 Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character Example: Scan the 2-1-2-1 Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character symbol.
01234567893. In Japan, it is common for two fields to follow the ISBN number, the three digit price field, and the four digit price field. The first field typically starts with a “C” (uppercase c), followed by four digits. The second field typically starts with a “P” or a yen symbol, followed by three or four digits, followed by an “E.” Program the user-defined variable “h” to comprise the “P” and the yen symbol (represented by a backslash). P\ 4.
OCR Template Codes Note: Reading more than three rows of OCR is not recommended. Contact the factory if you have an application that requires reading four or more rows of OCR. Enter OCR Template † Enter User-Defined Variable “g”† Enter User-Defined Variable “h”† † One or more two-digit numbers and Save are required after reading this programming symbol. Refer to the Programming Chart on the inside the back cover of this manual.

12 Serial Programming Commands The serial programming commands can be used in place of the programming barcodes. Both the serial commands and the programming barcodes will program the image scanner. For complete descriptions and examples of each serial programming command, refer to the corresponding programming barcode in this manual. The device must be set to an RS-232 interface (see page 2-2). The following commands can be sent via a PC COM port using terminal emulation software.
Data The new value for a menu setting, identified by the Tag and SubTag. Storage A single character that specifies the storage table to which the command is applied. An exclamation point (!) performs the command’s operation on the device’s volatile menu configuration table. A period (.) performs the command’s operation on the device’s non-volatile menu configuration table. Use the non-volatile table only for semi-permanent changes you want saved through a power cycle.
Responses The device responds to serial commands with one of three responses: ACK Indicates a good command which has been processed. ENQ Indicates an invalid Tag or SubTag command. NAK Indicates the command was good, but the Data field entry was out of the allowable range for this Tag and SubTag combination, e.g., an entry for a minimum message length of 100 when the field will only accept 2 characters.
Example #4: What are the device’s settings for all Codabar selections? Enter: cbr?. Response: CBRENA1[ACK], SSX0[ACK], CK20[ACK], CCT1[ACK], MIN2[ACK], MAX60[ACK], DFT[ACK].

14 Maintenance Repairs Repairs and/or upgrades are not to be performed on this product. These services are to be performed only by an authorized service center (see Customer Support on page 15-1). Maintenance The cordless system provides reliable and efficient operation with a minimum of care. Although specific maintenance is not required, the following periodic checks ensure dependable operation: Cleaning the Device Reading performance may degrade if the image scanner’s window is not clean.
Replacing the 2020 Interface Cable: 1. Turn the power to the host system OFF. 2. Disconnect the base’s cable from the terminal or computer. 3. Turn the base upside down. 4. Pull the connector out while maintaining pressure on the connector release clip. 5. Replace with the new cable. Insert the connector into the opening and press firmly. The connector is keyed to go in only one way, and will click into place. Changing the Image Scanner Battery: 1. Remove the screw on the end cap.
Assembling the Battery Charge Sleeve Kit Attach Tether 1. Use the phillips screw to connect the metal ring of the coiled tether to the battery charge sleeve. 2. Peel the backing from the metal plate on the coiled tether and affix the metal plate to the back of the 2020 base. Note: For best adhesion, allow a 24 hour cure time before placing stress on the metal plate. Remove Battery Remove the end cap of the image scanner (turn the thumbwheel or use a hex wrench). Insert Battery into Charge Sleeve 1.
Charge Battery With the battery inside the battery charge sleeve, place the battery charge sleeve into the base with the battery contacts going in first and facing up. Troubleshooting the Base Note: Please visit the Services and Support section of our website (www.honeywell.com/aidc) to check for the latest software for both the image scanner and the base. If your base is not functioning properly, review the following troubleshooting guidelines to try to isolate the problem.
• Aren’t smeared, rough, scratched, or exhibiting voids. • Aren’t coated with frost or water droplets on the surface. • Are enabled in the base to which the image scanner connects. Is the barcode displayed but not entered into the application? The barcode is displayed on the host device correctly, but you still have to press a key to enter it (the Enter/Return key or the Tab key, for example). You need to program a suffix.

Code Page Mapping of Printed Barcodes Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If the data received does not display with the proper characters, it may be because the barcode being scanned was created using a code page that is different from the one the host program is expecting. If this is the case, select the code page with which the barcodes were created. The data characters should then appear properly. Note: The Code Page option is available for Code 39, Code 93, and Code 128.
B Minimizing Bluetooth/ISM Band Network Activity The settings described below can help you customize the re-linking behavior of the cordless linear imaging system to obtain the best compromise between convenience and low interference. Note: ISM band refers to the 2.4 to 2.48 GHz frequency band used by wireless networks, cordless phones, and Bluetooth.
Event Auto Reconnect On Auto Reconnect Off Image scanner reset due to firmware upgrade Re-link occurs automatically. Image scanner reset due to battery change Re-link occurs automatically. Image scanner placed in different base unit Re-link to new base occurs automatically. Maximum Link Attempts The Maximum Link Attempts setting controls the number of times the image scanner tries to form a connection with a base unit or PC.
Scan the Relink Time-Out barcode, then scan the number of seconds for the setting (from 1-100) from the inside back cover. Scan Save to save the setting. Default = 3 seconds. Relink Time-Out Bluetooth/ISM Network Activity Examples Default values: When the image scanner goes out of range, the image scanner repeatedly attempts to connect to base unit. Each attempt consists of approximately 5 seconds of active time followed by 3 seconds of idle time.
