8 2 Get started This chapter provides information about how to install, connect and use your scanner to do your work, and how to charge and replace your battery. 2.1 Installation This section describes how to set up your scanner. 2.1.1 Set up your scanner 1. Connect the USB or the RS-232 cable to your cradle. Lay the cable into the notch on the cradle edge.
9 2. Connect the USB or the RS-232 cable to your computer. Note 1 If you’ve purchased the USB pack, you can charge your scanner by connecting the USB cable to your computer. You can also charge it by connecting a power supply (optional) to your USB cable. The charging time is shorter with a power supply. Note 2 If you’ve purchased the RS-232 pack, connect the power supply to the RS-232 cable and the wall outlet. Charging by Full Charge Time Power Supply 4.5 hours USB Cable 6.5 hours 3. Place your scanner on your cradle to charge it to full (cradle’s LED glows green). 4. Scan the Cradle code at the bottom of your cradle to establish the connection between your scanner and cradle. 5. To test your scanner, start a text processing program like Notepad or Word. Scan a bar code and see if the data can be sent to your computer. If it’s successful, you’ll hear a beep and the bar code data shows in the program.
10 2.1.2 How to scan AI-6801 emits a light bar when it is scanning. This bar needs to cross the bar code horizontally to decode it. 2.1.3 Work with the ASCII table Sometimes, you might need to send some control characters that can’t be typed or enter characters without a keyboard. You can do it by using ASCII codes. In Appendix B, you'll find the ASCII table. Both column and row numbers are hexadecimal. The ASCII code of a character is the combination of a column and a row number, where the column comes first. For example, the ASCII code of BEL is "07" and the number sign (#) is "23." You can use the bar codes in Appendix D to scan ASCII codes.
11 2.1.4 Search your scanner Sometimes you might leave your scanner somewhere and can’t find it. In this case, press and hold the RESET button at the bottom of your cradle, until you receive two short beeps from your scanner, and you can locate it by the beep sound. 2.2 Battery AI-6801 contains a lithium-ion battery that is partially charged at the factory. You might want to charge it to full before your use it. The battery life varies depending on usage. 2.2.1 Charge the battery You can charge the battery by connecting the USB cable to your computer, or by using a power supply, which charges the battery faster. When your scanner is fully charged, your cradle’s LED turns to green. Charging by Full Charge Time Power Supply 4.5 hours USB Cable 6.5 hours Caution Keep the charging pins dry when you put your scanner on your cradle to charge the battery. Wet charging pins may cause water seeping into your cradle and shortening its life.
12 2.2.2 Replace the battery The battery’s life is consumed as you use and charge it. You need to replace the battery when it wears out. 1. Loosen the screw at the bottom of your scanner. 2. Remove the battery cap. 3. Pinch the tape at the top of the battery and pull the battery out.
13 4. Insert the new battery into your scanner in the direction of the arrow printed on the battery. 5. Put the battery cap back to your scanner. Make sure the angle of cap is the same as below. 6. Tighten the screw to secure the cap.
14 2.3 Connection Your scanner can connect to three types of devices: your cradle, a Bluetooth adapter or a mobile device. 2.3.1 Connect to your cradle again If your scanner has connected to other device, and you want it to connect to your cradle again, do this: 1. Scan the following bar code. 2. Scan the bar code at the bottom of your cradle. 2.3.2 Connect to a Bluetooth adapter If your computer has a Bluetooth adapter, you can connect your scanner to your computer without a cradle. To connect your scanner to a Bluetooth adapter:
15 1. Scan the PC/Android bar code. 2. Click the Bluetooth icon in the notification area. Note Your computer needs to be Bluetooth-enabled. 3. In the Bluetooth Devices dialog box, click Add.
16 4. In the Add Bluetooth Device Wizard dialog box, select the My device is set up and ready to be found check box, and click Next. 5. If it detects your scanner, it shows “AI6801:XXXXXXXXX” (X is your scanner’s serial number) in the list. Click your scanner, and click Next.
17 6. Click Let me choose my own passkey. The default key is your scanner’s serial number (at the bottom of your cradle). After entering the key, click Next. 7. The computer will try to connect to your scanner. If it succeeds, you’ll see the successful message. Click Finish.
18 2.3.3 Connect to a mobile device AI-6801 is able to connect to an iOS or Android device that you can use to process bar codes. Connect to an iOS device You can connect your scanner to an iOS device, such as iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. The setup screen may vary depending on your device. In this section, we use an iPhone as an example. 1. Scan the “iOS HID” bar code. 2. On your iPhone, Go to Settings > Bluetooth. Turn on Bluetooth, and your iPhone searches other Bluetooth devices automatically. If it detects your scanner, it shows “AI6801:XXXXXXXXX” (X is your scanner’s serial number) under DEVICES. Tap your scanner to connect it.
19 3. When it connects successfully, the status of your scanner is changed to Connected. 4. Tap Notes to open a new note. Use your scanner to scan bar codes and the data shows in the note. Note: Apple iOS devices will allow only one input device working at the same time. So when you connect an Argox Cordless Scanner with your Apple device, the Apple Virtual Keyboard will be invalid automatically. To have the Apple Virtual Keyboard be available again, your will need to scan the barcode below.
20 Connect to an Android device You can connect your scanner to an Android device, such as a smartphone or tablet. The setup screen may vary depending on your device.

26 3.1.1 USB HID key board  Keyboard layout You can use it to change your keyboard layout, so your scanner can scan bar codes of different languages. Remember, you also need to change your input method.  Function key It maps function keys to ASCII codes, so you can scan bar codes in place of the function key input. For example, if you scan the numeric bar code “1” and then “2,” your scanner sends the specific character to your computer as though you press F2. The code mapping range is from 01 to 1F. For more information about ASCII codes, see ASCII table in Appendix B.  Numeric key The keypad is located to the rightmost of a keyboard. You need to select this mode if your program only accepts numerals. When selecting Alt+Keypad, your bar code data will be sent as if you’re pressing “Alt+number.” It is useful when your bar code contains a special character, such as the Euro sign (€).  Caps lock It determines whether the state of the Caps Lock key affects the output of bar codes.  Inter-character delay It determines how fast your computer receives each character and displays it on the screen. If the speed is set too fast and your computer system is slow, your computer may lose data.  Block Delay It is a delay timer between barcode data output. The feature is used to transfer continually with
27 shorter barcode data or multi-field scanning.

29 3.1.2 RS-232  Flow control • None Your computer and scanner only use TxD and RxD signals for communication. No hardware or software flow control is used. • RTS/CTS It is hardware flow control. If your scanner is ready to send bar code data to your computer, it sends an RTS signal, and waits to receive a CTS signal from your computer. If your scanner doesn’t receive a CTS after a timeout, you’ll hear five warning beeps from it. • Xon/Xoff It is software flow control. When your computer is unable to receive data, it sends an Xoff signal to notify your scanner to stop sending data; it sends an Xon signal when it’s ready. • ACK/NAK Your scanner sends data after it received an ACK signal from your computer, and will resend data if it receives an NAK signal.  Inter-character delay It determines how fast your computer receives each character and displays it on the screen. If the speed is set too fast and your computer system is slow, your computer may lose data.  Block Delay It is a delay timer between barcode data output. The feature is used to
30 transfer continually with shorter barcode data or multi-field scanning.  Response delay If you use RTS/CTS or ACK/NAK for flow control, you can decide how long your scanner waits your computer to acknowledge the data transmission.

32 3.2 Scan properties ￭ Good-read off After you pull the trigger, your scanner will keep emitting the light bar, until it captures a good scan or no bar code is decoded after the stand-by duration elapsed. ￭ Momentary When you pull the trigger, the light bar is turned on; when you release the trigger, the light bar is turned off. ￭ Alternate The trigger acts as a toggle. When you pull the trigger, the light bar is turned on; when you pull it again, the light bar is turned off. ￭ Timeout-off When you pull the trigger, the light bar is turned on. If no bar code is decoded after the stand-by duration elapsed, the light bar is turned off. ￭ Continue It automatically detects and decodes bar codes in your scanner’s field of view. You can turn on this mode when you want to decode bar codes without pulling the trigger. If no bar code is decoded after the stand-by duration elapsed, the light bar will flash. You can move your scanner or pull the trigger to wake it up. ￭ Test only It is reserved for engineers to test. ￭ Auto-sensing Similar to Continue, it automatically detects and decodes bar codes in your scanner’s field of view. If no bar code is decoded after the stand-by duration elapsed, the light bar will be turned off. You can move your scanner or pull the trigger to wake it up. ￭ Double confirm It determines how many times the decoder needs to confirm a bar code.
33 ￭ Double read timeout It determines the duration of Double confirm. For example, if you set 5 times in Double confirm and set 10 milliseconds in Double read timeout, the decoder will decode a bar code 5 times in 10 milliseconds. You need to turn on Double confirm to use this feature. ￭ Supplement check counter The decoder needs to capture the supplemental bar code within the number of times the check counter specified, or it determines there’s no supplement.

35 ￭ Global min/max code length The min and max code length defines the decoding length of all bar codes. Note the following when you set their length: • If the length of a bar code is shorter than the min or longer than the max, the bar code won’t be decoded. • If the min is equal to the max, the decoding length is fixed. • Some bar codes have their own decoding length. If you set the individual min or max decoding length for a bar code, your scanner will go by the individual setting. ￭ Inverted image scan When you turn on this feature, you can scan both regular and inverted bar codes. ￭ Position indication When you turn on this feature, the light bar keeps flashing. This feature determines how long the light bar flashes. ￭ ISBT Concatenation timeout when scanning single ISBT barcode, scanner will wait 900ms to output barcode because it is seeking appended ISBT barcode until timeout. ￭ Configration Auto update Every time your cradle connects to your scanner, Auto Update automatically updates your scanner’s configuration if it is different from your cradle’s.

43 3.4.3 String groups ￭ Insert G1/G2/G3/G4 character setting You can insert up to two strings into a bar code. Each string can contain up to 12 characters. First, you need to set a string in a group, and then insert the group into your bar code. There are four string groups. You can decide which group you want to use and where you want to insert it. You can insert the same group two times if you want. Note if you want to insert G5-G10, use Data Magic. ￭ Insert data group position It determines the position that the string group will be inserted into. Note that the insertion position can't exceed the length of a bar code, or the group will be inserted at the end of the bar code. The value “00” inserts the group at the beginning of a bar code, and “64” inserts the group at the end of a bar code. Example To insert a string group into a bar code: Step 1. Set a string in a group. 1. Scan the Program and Insert G1 characters setting bar codes. 2. In the ASCII code table, find the value of the character you want to insert. For
44 example, if you want to insert the string "AB," you'll find A→41, B→42. 3. On the last page, scan "41" and "42," and then scan the Finish bar code. 4. Scan the Exit bar code. Step 2. Insert the string into the specified position. 1. Scan the Program and Insert data group 1 position bar codes. 2. On the last page, scan “03,” and then scan the Finish bar code. This means we’re inserting the string into the third position of a bar code. 3. Scan the Exit bar code. Step 3. Specify the bar code you want to insert. 1. We’re using Code 128 as an example. In the section Code 128, scan the Program and Insert group number selection bar codes. 2. On the last page, scan “01,” and then scan the Finish bar code. This means we’re inserting Group1 into a Code 128 bar code. 3. Scan the Exit bar code. Original data: 258963 Result: 258AB963

140 5 Troubleshooting You might encounter some issues when you scan bar codes. This chapter provides information that helps you fix common issues. 5.1 Scanner issues My scanner doesn’t emit the aiming pattern. ￭ Did you charge your scanner? ￭ Did you turn off the aiming pattern? ￭ Your battery wears out. Replace the battery and make sure the new battery is charged. ￭ Your scanner is waiting your computer to acknowledge data and doesn’t receive any response. Unplug your cradle’s cable (USB or RS-232) and connect it again. ￭ Check your USB cable and power supply by connecting them to other compatible devices and test if they work properly. If not, replace them and charge your scanner again.
141 5.2 Bar code issues My scanner doesn’t read the bar code properly. ￭ Reset your scanner. ￭ Check the quality of your bar codes. Wrinkled, smudged, blurred or torn bar codes won’t be read by your scanner. ￭ The reading window of your scanner may be dirty and block the field of view. Clean the reading window. The data isn’t sent to my computer. ￭ Did you establish the connection between your scanner and cradle? ￭ Did your scanner connect to other Bluetooth device? ￭ Make sure the USB cable is tightly plugged into your cradle and computer. ￭ Your scanner is connecting to another cradle. Break their connection and connect your scanner to your cradle. My scanner doesn’t decode the bar code, but the bar code type is supported. ￭ Did you turn on Read for the bar code type? ￭ The density of your bar code may be too high for your scanner to decode.
