3-8 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Symbol Native API (SNAPI) Status Handshaking After selecting a SNAPI interface as the USB device type, select whether to enable or disable status handshaking.
USB INTERFACE 3-9 USB Keystroke Delay This parameter sets the delay, in milliseconds, between emulated keystrokes. Scan a bar code below to increase the delay when hosts require a slower transmission of data. *No Delay Medium Delay (20 msec) Long Delay (40 msec) USB CAPS Lock Override This option applies only to the USB Keyboard (HID) device. When enabled, the case of the data is preserved regardless of the state of the caps lock key.
3 - 10 LI2208 Product Reference Guide USB Ignore Unknown Characters This option applies only to the USB Keyboard (HID) device and IBM device. Unknown characters are characters the host does not recognize. When Send Bar Codes With Unknown Characters is selected, all bar code data is sent except for unknown characters, and no error beeps sound. When Do Not Send Bar Codes With Unknown Characters is selected, bar code data is sent up to the first unknown character, then the linear imager issues an error beep.
USB INTERFACE 3 - 11 Emulate Keypad When enabled, all characters are sent as ASCII sequences over the numeric keypad. For example ASCII A would be sent as “ALT make” 0 6 5 “ALT Break.” NOTE If your keyboard type is not listed in the country code list (see Appendix B, COUNTRY CODES), disable Quick Keypad Emulation on page 3-12 and ensure Emulate Keypad is enabled.
3 - 12 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Quick Keypad Emulation This options applies only if Alternate Numeric Keypad Emulation is enabled. This parameter enables a quicker method of keypad emulation where character value sequences are only sent for characters not found on the keyboard. The default value is Enable. * Enable Disable USB Keyboard FN1 Substitution This option applies only to the USB USB Keyboard (HID) device.
USB INTERFACE 3 - 13 Function Key Mapping ASCII values under 32 are normally sent as a control-key sequences (see Table 3-3 on page 3-25). When this parameter is enabled, the keys in bold are sent in place of the standard key mapping. Table entries that do not have a bold entry remain the same whether or not this parameter is enabled.
3 - 14 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Convert Case When enabled, the linear imager converts all bar code data to the selected case. *No Case Conversion Convert All to Upper Case Convert All to Lower Case USB Static CDC When disabled, each device connected consumes another COM port (first device = COM1, second device = COM2, third device = COM3, etc.) When enabled, each device connects to the same COM port.
USB INTERFACE 3 - 15 Optional USB Parameters If you configure the linear imager and find the settings were not saved, or changed, when the system is restarted scan the bar codes that follow to override USB interface defaults. Scan a bar code below after setting defaults and before configuring the linear imager. Ignore Beep The host can send a beep request to the linear imager. When this parameter is enabled, the request is not sent to the attached linear imager.
3 - 16 LI2208 Product Reference Guide USB Polling Interval Scan a bar code below to set the polling interval. The polling interval determines the rate at which data can be sent between the scanner and host computer. A lower number indicates a faster data rate. NOTE When changing the USB polling interval, the linear imager automatically restarts and issues a power-up beep sequence. IMPORTANT Ensure your host machine can handle the selected data rate.
USB INTERFACE 3 - 17 USB Polling Interval (continued) 5 msec 6 msec 7 msec 8 msec 9 msec
3 - 18 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Fast HID Keyboard This option transmits USB HID keyboard data at a faster rate. NOTE Quick Keypad Emulation (on page 3-12) overrides Fast HID Keyboard.
USB INTERFACE 3 - 19 Toshiba TEC Host Parameters This section only applies when the USB device type is set as Toshiba TEC Host on page 3-7, and the scanner is connected to a Toshiba TEC register. Toshiba TEC Code Type Table Usage This single bit option chooses which Toshiba TEC specific Symbol Table is used for identifying bar code types.
3 - 20 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Toshiba TEC Include Symbol Type This single bit option chooses whether or not the Toshiba TEC Symbol Table is used for identifying bar code types. * Add Symbol Types Do Not Add Symbol Types Toshiba TEC Include Character Counts This single bit option chooses whether or not the count of characters in the bar code is prefixed onto the decoded data before transmission. This applies to all the code types except the UPC and EAN families.
USB INTERFACE 3 - 21 Toshiba TEC Include Header This single bit option chooses whether or not the header character is prefixed onto the decoded data before transmission. The default header character is the STX (0x02) character. That can be changed with the Toshiba TEC Header Character parameters listed below.
3 - 22 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Toshiba TEC Header Character This single byte option specifies the header character prefixed onto the decoded data before transmission. The default header character is the STX (0x02) character. Note that it is NOT POSSIBLE to use the NULL character (0x00) as the prefix as this is the default value and indicates that an STX must be used. To program a header character, scan the bar code below followed by two numeric bar codes in Appendix E, NUMERIC BAR CODES.
USB INTERFACE 3 - 23 Toshiba TEC Terminator Character This two byte option specifies the terminator character(s) appended onto the decoded data before transmission. The default terminator character is the ETX (0x03) character. Note that it is NOT POSSIBLE to use the NULL character (0x00) as either of the terminators as this is the default value and indicates that an ETX must be used. If the first character is a NULL, then only the ETX is appended even if there is a second character defined.
3 - 24 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Toshiba TEC Good Decode Beeper Timing This option specifies when a good decode indication takes place. The options are to indicate the good decode either before or after the bar code was transmitted to the host.

CHAPTER 4 RS-232 INTERFACE Introduction This chapter provides instructions for programming the linear imager to interface with an RS-232 host interface. The RS-232 interface is used to attach the scanner to point-of-sale devices, host computers, or other devices with an available RS-232 port (i.e., COM port). If the particular host is not listed in Table 4-2, set the communication parameters to match the host device. Refer to the documentation for the host device.
4-2 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Connecting an RS-232 Interface This connection is made directly from the scanner to the host computer. Figure 4-1 RS-232 Direct Connection To connect the RS-232 interface: 1. 2. 3. 4. Attach the modular connector of the RS-232 interface cable to the host port on the bottom of the scanner. Connect the other end of the RS-232 interface cable to the serial port on the host. Connect the power supply to the serial connector end of the RS-232 interface cable.
RS-232 INTERFACE 4-3 RS-232 Parameter Defaults Table 4-1 lists the defaults for RS-232 host parameters. If any option needs to be changed, scan the appropriate bar code(s) provided in the Parameter Descriptions section beginning on page 4-4. NOTE See Appendix A, STANDARD DEFAULT PARAMETERS for all user preferences, hosts, symbologies, and miscellaneous default parameters.
4-4 LI2208 Product Reference Guide RS-232 Host Parameters Various RS-232 hosts are set up with their own parameter default settings (Table 4-2). Selecting the ICL, Fujitsu, Wincor-Nixdorf Mode A, Wincor-Nixdorf Mode B, Olivetti, Omron, or terminal sets the defaults listed below.
RS-232 INTERFACE 4-5 RS-232 Host Parameters (continued) Selecting the ICL, Fujitsu, Wincor-Nixdorf Mode A, Wincor-Nixdorf Mode B, OPOS terminal enables the transmission of code ID characters listed in Table 4-3 below. These code ID characters are not programmable and are separate from the Transmit Code ID feature. The Transmit Code ID feature should not be enabled for these terminals. NOTE The code types in Table 4-3 may not be automatically enabled.
4-6 LI2208 Product Reference Guide RS-232 Host Types To select an RS-232 host interface, scan one of the following bar codes.
RS-232 INTERFACE 4-7 RS-232 Host Types (continued) Omron OPOS/JPOS Fujitsu RS-232 CUTE NOTE The CUTE host disables all parameter scanning, including set defaults. If the CUTE parameter is inadvertently selected, scan *Enable Parameter Bar Code Scanning (01h) on page 7-5, then change the host selection.
4-8 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Baud Rate Baud rate is the number of bits of data transmitted per second. Set the linear imager's baud rate to match the baud rate setting of the host device. Otherwise, data may not reach the host device or may reach it in distorted form.
RS-232 INTERFACE 4-9 Stop Bit Select The stop bit(s) at the end of each transmitted character marks the end of transmission of one character and prepares the receiving device for the next character in the serial data stream. The number of stop bits selected (one or two) depends on the number the receiving terminal is programmed to accommodate. Set the number of stop bits to match host device requirements.
4 - 10 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Data Bits (ASCII Format) This parameter allows the linear imager to interface with devices requiring a 7-bit or 8-bit ASCII protocol. NOTE When 7-bit is selected, Parity must be set to Odd or Even. If Parity is set to None, the scanner automatically operates in 8-bit mode, even if 7-bit is scanned. 7-bit *8-bit Parity NOTE Parity of None is not valid when Data Bits is set to 7-bit. A parity check bit is the most significant bit of each ASCII coded character.
RS-232 INTERFACE 4 - 11 Hardware Handshaking The data interface consists of an RS-232 port designed to operate either with or without the hardware handshaking lines, Request to Send (RTS), and Clear to Send (CTS). If Standard RTS/CTS handshaking is not selected, scan data is transmitted as it becomes available. If Standard RTS/CTS handshaking is selected, scan data is transmitted according to the following sequence: • The linear imager reads the CTS line for activity.
4 - 12 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Hardware Handshaking (continued) • None: Scan the bar code below if no Hardware Handshaking is desired. • Standard RTS/CTS: Scan the bar code below to select Standard RTS/CTS Hardware Handshaking. • RTS/CTS Option 1: When RTS/CTS Option 1 is selected, the linear imager asserts RTS before transmitting and ignores the state of CTS. The linear imager de-asserts RTS when the transmission is complete.
RS-232 INTERFACE 4 - 13 Software Handshaking This parameter offers control of the data transmission process in addition to, or instead of, that offered by hardware handshaking. There are five options. If Software Handshaking and Hardware Handshaking are both enabled, Hardware Handshaking takes precedence. • None: When this option is selected, data is transmitted immediately. No response is expected from host.
4 - 14 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Software Handshaking (continued) *None ACK/NAK ENQ ACK/NAK with ENQ XON/XOFF
RS-232 INTERFACE 4 - 15 Host Serial Response Time-out This parameter specifies how long the linear imager waits for an ACK, NAK, ENQ, XON, or CTS before determining that a transmission error occurred. *Minimum: 2 sec Low: 2.5 sec Medium: 5 sec High: 7.5 sec Maximum: 9.
4 - 16 LI2208 Product Reference Guide RTS Line State This parameter sets the idle state of the Serial Host RTS line. Scan a bar code below to select Low RTS or High RTS line state. *Host: Low RTS Host: High RTS Beep on Point-to-Point Mode Only When this parameter is enabled, the linear imager issues a beep when a character is detected on the RS-232 serial line. is issued to gain a user's attention to an illegal entry or other important event.
RS-232 INTERFACE 4 - 17 Intercharacter Delay This parameter specifies the intercharacter delay inserted between character transmissions.

6-4 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Keyboard Wedge Host Parameters Keyboard Wedge Host Types Select the Keyboard Wedge host by scanning one of the bar codes below.
KEYBOARD WEDGE INTERFACE 6-5 Ignore Unknown Characters Unknown characters are characters the host does not recognize. When Send Bar Codes With Unknown Characters is selected, all bar code data is sent except for unknown characters, and no error beeps sound on the linear imager. When Do Not Send Bar Codes With Unknown Characters is selected, bar code data is sent up to the first unknown character, then the linear imager issues an error beep.
6-6 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Intra-Keystroke Delay When enabled, an additional delay is inserted between each emulated key depression and release. This sets the Keystroke Delay parameter to a minimum of 5 msec as well. Enable Intra-Keystroke Delay *Disable Intra-Keystroke Delay Alternate Numeric Keypad Emulation In a Microsoft® operating system environment, this allows emulation of most other country keyboard types not listed in Appendix B, COUNTRY CODES.
KEYBOARD WEDGE INTERFACE 6-7 Quick Keypad Emulation This parameter enables a method of quicker keypad emulation where character value sequences are only sent for characters not found on the keyboard. NOTE This option applies only when Alternate Numeric Keypad Emulation is enabled. *Enable Quick Keypad Emulation Disable Quick Keypad Emulation Caps Lock On When enabled, the linear imager emulates keystrokes as if the Caps Lock key is always pressed.
6-8 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Caps Lock Override When enabled, on AT or AT Notebook hosts, the keyboard ignores the state of the Caps Lock key. Therefore, an ‘A’ in the bar code is sent as an ‘A’ no matter what the state of the keyboard’s Caps Lock key. Note that if both Caps Lock On and Caps Lock Override are enabled, Caps Lock Override takes precedence.
KEYBOARD WEDGE INTERFACE 6-9 Function Key Mapping ASCII values under 32 are normally sent as control key sequences (see Table 6-2 on page 6-12). When this parameter is enabled, the keys in bold are sent in place of the standard key mapping. Table entries that do not have a bold entry remain the same whether or not this parameter is enabled.
6 - 10 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Send Make and Break When enabled, the scan codes for releasing a key are not sent.
KEYBOARD WEDGE INTERFACE 6 - 11 Keyboard Map Refer to the following keyboard map for prefix/suffix keystroke parameters. To program the prefix/suffix values, see the bar codes on page 7-23.
6 - 12 LI2208 Product Reference Guide ASCII Character Set for Keyboard Wedge NOTE Code 39 Full ASCII interprets the bar code special character ($ + % /) preceding a Code 39 character and assigns an ASCII character value to the pair. For example, when Code 39 Full ASCII is enabled and a +B is scanned, it is interpreted as b, %J as ?, and %V as @. Scanning ABC%I outputs the keystroke equivalent of ABC >.

CHAPTER 11 ADVANCED DATA FORMATTING Introduction Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) is a means of customizing data before transmission to the host device. Scan data can be edited to suit particular requirements. To implement ADF, scan a related series of bar codes, which begin onpage 11-8, which allows programming the linear imager with Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) Rules. Avoid using ADF formatting with bar codes containing more than 60 characters.
11 - 2 LI2208 Product Reference Guide Using ADF Bar Codes When programming a rule, make sure the rule is logically correct. Plan ahead before scanning. To program each data formatting rule: • Start the Rule. Scan Begin New Rule on page 11-8. • Specify Criteria. Scan the bar codes for all pertinent criteria. Criteria can include code type (e.g., Code 128), code length, or data that contains a specific character string (e.g., the digits “129”). See Criteria on page 11-11. • Select Actions.

11 - 4 LI2208 Product Reference Guide To implement this, first enter an ADF rule that applies to the normal situation, such as: Scan Rule Belongs to Set 1. When scanning a bar code of length 15, send the next 2 characters, send the class key, send the next 8 characters, send the stock key, send the data that remains, send the Enter key. The “sale” rule may look like this: Scan Rule Belongs to Set 2.
ADVANCED DATA FORMATTING 11 - 5 Default Rules Every unit has a default rule to send all scan data. Units with custom software may have one or more default rules burned in. The rules hierarchy checks user programmable rules first, then the default rules. Disable default rules by entering the following general rule in the user programmable buffer: When receiving scan data, send all data. Since this rule always applies, ADF never applies the default rules.
