Product Summary
What's new at the SG-15Colour……….. ..89
Preface
The Shuttle is an entry level, small and attractive Price Checker.
The ShuttleC features the latest technology. Interfacing is done either through
Wireless RF or hard wired Ethernet. The bright colour display has, depending on
the used font set, 3 or 5 lines and can display up to 20 characters per line.
There is a choice of bar code scanners between the high performance 24 scan
lines laser scanner, 2D imager and the low cost single scan line CCD scanner.
Because of its size and the sympathetic good looks the ShuttleC can be installed
anywhere in a store, including on the shelves. This flexibility of installation is
enhanced by the optional Power-over-Ethernet. The three available standard
colours also greatly help to fit most interiors.
General Information
The Scantech-ID ShuttleC is the latest product developed by the company that
has over 20 years of experience in the field of customer information systems.
Today we offer a choice of scanner (Laser 24 omni directional lines, 2D Imager
and CCD single line), a choice of colour (Silver, Black or Red) and a choice of
interface (LAN, WiFi POE).
Quality and Durability
The ShuttleC comes with the same top quality as all other Scantech-ID products.
So at a very competitive price the same quality and performance of more
expensive products is available. Due to the high MTBF times of every component
a long and service free operation time is secured.
Flexibility
The size of 182mm (height), 131mm (width) and 95mm (depth), makes the
Scantech-ID ShuttleC small enough to be installed in larger numbers per store.
Even when mounted on a shelf it will not block products on display.
The bright display makes it easy to read prices and product information.
Connectivity
The ShuttleC is configured using a standard web browser.
A customized application program -not supplied by Scantech-ID- is necessary
for retailers to operate the SG-15Colour in their specific environment. Scantech
supplies software source code examples plus network drivers for easy
integration.

Optical:
The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard. Optical instruments include
binoculars, microscopes and magnifying glasses but do not include eyeglasses worn by the user.
Radiant Energy:
The SHUTTLE uses a low-power laser diode operating at 630…670 nm in an opto-mechanical scanner
resulting in less than 0.6 mW peak output power. Laser light observed at 13 cm (5.1 in.) above the
window through a 7 mm (0.28 in.) aperture and averaged over 1000 seconds is less than 3.9 µW per
CDRH Class IIa specification. Do not attempt to remove the protective housing of the scanner, as
unscanned laser light with a peak output up to 0.8 mW could be accessible inside.
Laser Light Viewer:
The scanner window is the only aperture through which laser light may be observed on this product.
A failure of the scanner motor, while the laser diode continues to emit a laser beam, may cause
emission levels to exceed those for safe operation. The scanner has safeguards to prevent this
occurrence. If, however, a stationary laser beam is emitted, the failing scanner should be disconnected
from its power source immediately.
Adjustments:
Do not attempt any adjustments to or alteration of this product. Do not remove the scanner’s
protective housing. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in hazardous laser light
exposure.

FUNCTIONING OF THE SHUTTLE SG-15
COLOUR
2.3.1 Introduction
The Shuttle is an information terminal, which receives input (barcode), from a
user and answers via the display. The display contents is provided by a computer
application, which runs on a (server) system elsewhere.
2.3.2 Input
The main input -bar code information- is generated by the integrated Scantech
barcode reader, which is characterised by a high performance 24 scan line
omni-directional laser scan pattern, or by a CCD single line scanner.
2.3.3 Output
Based on the bar code input and the application software on the host-system the
ShuttleC communicates with the user via text on the screen and optional graphics
and audio feedback via the speaker.

2.3.4 Software & Control
The functions during daily use of the Shuttle are determined by the application
program, which is controlling the Shuttle . So the task of the storage of
databases, providing the information and sending it to the display of the ShuttleC
will be performed by a central host system.
Providing this application, running on the host system, is the responsibility of the
System Integrator.

The ShuttleC documentation and the demo/set-up programs provide you with
all the required information on how to communicate with the ShuttleC and how
to control it. The SG-15Colour Product Support Library contains all kind of source
code examples and a complete example for application software (incl. free source
code), including an Ethernet driver to enable the integrator to get the SG-15Colour
up and running in no time.

2.4
General Description
POWER OVER ETHERNET (POE)
The alternative for powering the Shuttle through an external PSU (adapter),
is using the Power-Over-Ethernet (PoE) version of the SG-15Colour.
In this way the SG-15Colour is powered directly through the Ethernet and you don’t
need to install a (230/110VAC) mains socket anymore somewhere in the middle
of the store, so in this way saving you quite some installation costs!
The ShuttleC PoE complies with the official standard: IEEE 802.3af.
For your information:
PoE uses either the 4 Ethernet data lines (pin 1,2,3,6), called End-Span, or the not
used Ethernet lines (pin 4,5,7,8), called Mid-Span, to transport the DC voltage to
the SG-15Colour. Which method is used, depends on the supplying powered network
switch (hub). The ShuttleC supports both methods automatically.
See also Appendix A.
Towards the host-side, this means that you need a special hub/router which
supports the Power-Over-Ethernet (PoE) feature following the official standard for
this: IEEE 802.3af.
To avoid any miscommunication in this area: Scantech does not supply
network components like a power injector, network cabling, powered
hubs etc.
Colour
PoE in the current stage, this is in most
When we ship the first unit(s) SG-15
cases for demo- or evaluation purposes. Therefore we DO include the standard
PSU. This is done ‘just to be sure’ and to give our customers the possibility to at
least turn-on the SG-15Colour independent from the hub, for instance for SG-15Colour
configuration purposes.
Colour
Of course, for the real installation in the store (roll-out), with the SG-15
connected to a hub with Power-Over-Ethernet IEEE 802.3af, you do not need
the mains PSU (adapter).
In case a project roll-out starts, we will not include the mains PSU anymore.
Physically (i.e. inside the SG-15Colour) this means that we place a special PoE board
to support the PoE feature. See Appendix J for SG-15Colour POE Partnumbers.

SOFTWARE
The Shuttle is a thin-client, front-end Price Checker. Its behavior is very easily
configurable and fully determined by the software package, driving the Shuttle
from the Back-Office/server. This software package (or: added value) will be
supplied by the System Integrator. This is because of the fact that there are no
set international standards with regard to product database structures and/or
programming languages. Furthermore it is not Scantech´s primary role to supply
end-user application software.
ATTENTION
The SG-15Colour Product Support Library contains a framework of
software tools which includes an Ethernet driver and a complete
demo application (including free of charge source code).
This makes it very easy to create a server application
in no time at all.
These objects are available for both Windows and Linux
See Library \Source Code Examples\Enhanced
4.1.1 Software functionality
The global function of the ShuttleC software package, running on the
Back-Office/server, is:
1. Set-up and maintain communication between the application itself and the
ShuttleC terminal(s).
2. Provide product information (e.g. article name and price) from the store’s
database, combined with the right font size and layout.
3. Diagnostics & Terminal Statistics (optional).

See Chapter 5.4 for configuration details.
This SG-20 emulation function implies: supporting general price-checking function:
• Scan the bar code and send the scanned data to the host like an SG-20
• Receive data from the host/store-server, as it was intended for
the SG-20 display.
• Show product name and price on the SG-15Colour display.
In case you already created an SG-20 application on the back-office in the past,
controlling the SG-20, you can continue using this application without any changes
on the backoffice.

System Integration
HOW TO COMMUNICATE? A SIMPLE EXAMPLE
Colour
The SG-15
is a simple IP device in the local network, which accepts and
displays normal ASCII characters.
After scanning a bar code, it outputs it as a normal ASCII string.
The easiest way to communicate with an SG-15Colour right out of the box, without
any further configuration, is using a telnet session:
First, connect the SG-15Colour to your network (using a normal 1:1
Ethernet cable) or directly to your PC (using a crossed Ethernet
cable).
As you turn on the SG-15Colour, the 'Offline' message will flash on the
display. It will continue to do so, until you've made a software
connection to it.
By default, the SG-15Colour is configured as TCP client, having DHCP=ON
(the IP address 192.168.1.200 if no DHCP service)
and listening to port 9101.
Make sure that your PC has an IP address in the same IP range, e.g.
192.168.1.250
You should be able to 'ping' the SG-15Colour now, by entering:
Ping 192.168.1.200

The SG-15Colour has an internal web server for configuration purposes.
Just start your web browser Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer and enter the
IP-address of the SG-15Colour. Note: Use for Internet Explorer version 11 or higher.
The SG-15Colour comes with installed Factory Default Settings and at startup it will

The unit's IP address is shortly visible on the launcher screen after power-up,
both Ethernet and WiFi.
Make sure your computer is in the same IP subnet as the SG-15Colour you're
going to configure.
E.g.: The SG-15Colour has IP address 192.168.1.200 and your computer has
address 192.168.1.250.
The physical connection with the SG-15Colour is made using an Ethernet cross-cable

Wired network settings
On the Configuration Web Page Wired Network configuration
you set the IP address of the SG-15Colour terminal:
With Factory default settings, the SG-15 starts with DHCP=On and settings
as displayed above.
At startup, the assignment of an SG-15 IP-address takes place according the
following procedure:
1. When DHCP is enabled and a DHCP-service is active on the network, the
SG-15 will use the IP-address assigned by the DHCP-service.
2. When DHCP is enabled but the DHCP-service is not active on the network,
by default the SG-15 will use Static IP Address: 192.168.1.200.
3. When DHCP is disabled, the remaining fields in the section become editable
and the SG-15 will « Apply » the entered values as such.
Important: When changing the LAN settings with « Apply », your SG-15 will
immediately disconnect from your browser. For re-connecting your browser you
must make the network settings of your PC compatible with those of your SG-15.
After re-connecting and re-opening web-page System->Wired Network, the Status
line will display the new IP-address.
When the SG-15 displays the DeskTop menu, you can read the IP-addresses
assigned to LAN (and WLAN) directly from the display.

•
Static IP Address: fixed IP-address (only editable when DHCP=Off).
•
Netmask: determines the class of network.
•
Default Gateway: default IP-address used by the SG-15 whenever it
addresses IP's that do not match any other routes in the SG-15's routing table.
Notes:
1. The Default Gateway address always shares the network value for
the Static IP Address.
2. In combination with WLAN it is sometimes necessary to define no
Default Gateway for LAN which is done by leaving this field empty.

WiFi network settings
On this Configuration Web Page you input the WiFi Network settings:
Introduction
Changing WLAN settings is best done by connecting the SG-15 with a Ethernet
cross-cable to your PC/Laptop. With DHCP=OFF, the SG-15 will activate
192.168.1.200 as default IP-address for LAN. Make sure your PC/Laptop has a
compatible network setting and login.
Note that the SG-15 runs the LAN and WLAN interfaces simultaneously. In real live
applications, only one of the two interfaces will be used to communicate with a
server application.
C
Colour
Scantech-ID Shuttle SG-15
33
Notes:
1. At start-up and Wifi-Enable=On, the assignment of the WLAN IP-address is
done as follows:
1. When DHCP is enabled and a DHCP-service is available on the network,
the SG-15 will use the IP-address assigned by the DHCP-service
(the Access Point becomes transparent for any LAN network with an
active DHCP-service that answers first in time).
2. When DHCP is enabled but no DHCP-service is available on the network,
the SG-15 will use 192.168.4.201 as default IP-address.
3. When DHCP is disabled the SG-15 will use the static IP-address
value (192.168.4.200 factory default).
2. SG-15Colour Wi-Fi devices provided by Scantech-ID support the hidden SSID
feature (controlled by the Access Point).
3. If a Default Gateway is required for the Wi-Fi network then make sure that
the Default Gateway for LAN is omitted (the reserved field for this must be
empty).
4. At start-up and Wifi-Enable=On, the wifi-driver will immediately attempt to
set-up a connection with the given SSID. If the Access Point is not available,
the SG-15 will continue searching for the SSID until it finds it.
5. WLAN authentication data is never stored on the device itself.
6. The password for the SSID can be made visible with the tick-box
Show Password.
7. The button « Save Only » allows you to change the Wifi settings without
actually activating the Wifi connection. This is useful when configuring Wifi
without an Access Point i.e. it avoids unnecessary waiting for connection
timers to time-out.
8. The WPA/WPA2-Enterprise implementation supports 802.1x authentication by
means of a RADIUS server. The fields Username and Password must match
with those registered on the RADIUS server.
Note: The feature Validate Server Certificate is not yet implemented.

The SG-15
Line or 2D Imager. At startup, the SG-15Colour detects what type of barcode reader
is installed and it will auto-configure the device according the settings on the
Barcode Reader page.
Double Read Time
This time value (in milli seconds) represents the minimum time between reading
one and the same barcode twice. The minimum time for reading two different
barcodes after each other is less than 200 msec for an Omni scanner.
Scan Illumination Level
For reading barcodes in a dim lighted environment, extra illumination is needed for
the 2D scan-engine. The illumination is adjustable and the number of levels
depends on the 2D scan-engine (max. 5 levels, including illumination=Off).
Use the Test button to check the adjusted level and then Apply.
Notes
1. 2D symbologies settings are ignored by the omni-directional reader.
2. Since the bar code reader page is not meant to replace the reader
Configuration Manual, only the most important symbology settings can
be changed.
3. The 2D reader reads barcodes from a cell phone or any screen with
sufficient pixel resolution.
4. The SG-15Colour fully manages the scan engine settings.
It is advised against to configure the scanner manually.

Chapter 5.7 Web Price Checker
Introduction
The web based price-checker application uses a web-kit library to setup a
browser-like connection to an http server. When an EAN barcode is scanned, the
Colour
will send the scanned data as an HTTP request to a web server. The
SG-15
web serveris responsible for generating the HTML page with Article/Price/Picture
content, which is sent to the SG-15Colour. The web-kit utility executing on the
SG-15Colour will interpret and show the content on the display.
1.
Start Page
Default, the URL of the Start Page and Welcome Page are defined as HTML files
residing on the SG-15Colour. The Start page is only displayed at start-up of the WebPrice-Checker application. Having these files local on the SG-15 guarantees that
the SG-15 starts with a non-empty page (even if the web-server is temporary out

Welcome Timer
After a product scan action and a successful article look-up, the server replies
with an article description, price etc. This information is displayed on the screen
for the number of seconds specified in the Welcome Timer field. When this
timer times out, the SK enters an idle state and normally it will re-display the
Welcome Message, but it is also possible to let the PromoTool application take
over the display from the Price-Checker. For this the skpromo needs to run
simultaneously with skpricechecker, see page DeskTop Configurator.
4.
Error Page
The Error Page URL is an option to specify a customized error message.
C
48
5.
Configuring the Shuttle
Query URL
For every barcode scan, the SK must send a query URL with the requested
barcode information to the web-server.
The Web-Price-Checker uses tag-variables in the URL for this, like for example:
http://192.137.81.60/auth/tbl_products/scan/{@BARCODE}/{@SKTYPE}
When scanning an EAN13 barcode 5029053021454 on a SK-50, the URL
request with variables, {@SKTYPE} and {@BARCODE} will be reformatted and
send to the web server as:
http://192.137.81.60/auth/tbl_products/scan/5029053021454/SG15
Note that the sequence of the variables {@BARCODE} and {@SKTYPE} in the
specified URL, is one to one related with the search path on the web server.
6.
Allow URL barcodes
This feature is useful for scanning 2D-barcodes on products or leaflets with
2D-barcodes that represent a URL referring directly to a site on the internet or
intranet. When this feature is ON and your SG-15Colour is equipped with a
2D-scanengine, then scanning the QR-code here below will show the following
response on the display:
QR-code with URL

Notes:
1. This requires the following settings:
i. Allow URL barcodes = ON
ii. 2D barcodes
= ON
iii. The SK is equipped with 2D scan-engine.
2. DNS must be activated on SK
(i.e. DHCP service is responsible for providing a name server).

design.
"The SG-15
Due to the fact that the SG-15Colour uses proportional fonts (every single character
has it's own specific width), you never know precisely how much characters fit
on one line. Therefore, when a character doesn't fit on the current line, it's not
displayed at all (instead of printing it on the next line, which gives undesired
"messy" results)
You can move to another line by sending a Carriage Return (0x0d), or a Linefeed
(0x0a). Both have the same effect: Going to the start position of the next line).
You can move the cursor by sending:
'Set cursor' command (ESC 0x27), for predefined cursor positions.
'Set Pixel Position' command (ESC 0x2C),
for placing the cursor on any pixel location.
For easy alignment of text on often desired positions (like the center of the
screen, right of the screen, bottom of the screen, etc) you can use the
'Align text' (ESC 0x2e) command.

GENERAL
What is the standard available configuration and looks for the ShuttleC?
See Appendix J.
Can we have other colours than black, Silver or Red?
Yes, other colours are only available on request, only in large quantities and under
specific conditions.
Is every ShuttleC delivered with a CD-ROM and User’s Manual?
To save our natural resources, we do not include a User's Manual and Product CD
with every unit anymore. The Product Support Library is available through FTP link.
Why isn’t there a “PC-board” inside the Shuttle ?
It was our design strategy to develop a compact, lean and cost-effective
Price Checker, offering all the requirements at absolute maximum reliability
at a low power consumption and for an attractive price.
We ensured the availability of the SG-15 motherboard for the future.

CONFIGURATION AND THE SG-15Colour USER’S MANUAL
How do I configure the ShuttleC?
See chapter 5.
The SG-15Colour has an internal web server, which makes it possible to configure it
using any internet browser.
Where do I find the most recent ShuttleC Command Set?
In this manual (Appendix B) and on the Product Support Library.
Do I need special software for the ShuttleC?
The ShuttleC itself is standard equipped with all required firmware:
Linux OS, drivers and several applications.
On the server-side (your back-office system) a small program or routine is
required to take care of the communication and to provide the product information
that the ShuttleC shall display.
It is the role of the system integrator to add his value here.
See Chapter 4 and loads of software examples, including free source code
of the complete (demo) application on the Product Support Support Library!
G-3
NETWORKING
Which type of Power Over Ethernet (PoE) is supported?
The ShuttleC supports both Mid- and End-span connections,
according to the IEEE 802.3af specifications.
Which Wireless options are available?
The SG-15Colour ShuttleC WiFi version supports IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac

DEMO POSSIBILITIES & HOW TO GET STARTED
What kind of development package does the system-integrator get from
Scantech-ID?
The Shuttle Product Support Library contains lots of technical information
and free source code examples in all popular languages.
Does the ShuttleC have an internal memory for an article database?
No, we have chosen not to do this for the following reason:
It is crucial that the information given to the consumer on the ShuttleC display
is correct. The best solution to achieve this high level of data integrity is to draw
the information from ONE central source: The article database on the store’s Back
Office computer.
In case the ShuttleC terminal would contain a local database,
this needs permanent maintenance, generating lots of data traffic and
logistic hassle.
Also, a local database memory will significantly increase the unit hardware costs.
How can I give a quick demo?
See ShuttleC Product Support Library (Demonstration Tool\SG15Demo.exe).

How can I give an advanced demo including my own database with demo articles?
See ShuttleC Product Support Library (\Source Code Examples\Enhanced).
The SG-15Colour should run in TCP Client mode to work with this demo tool.

BARCODES
Which barcode symbologies does the Shuttle accept?
Basically all popular symbologies as accepted by the integrated Scantech
scanner: EAN 13, EAN 8, UPC A, UPC E, Add-ons, Code/EAN 128, Int 2/5,
Code 39 (full ASCII), Code 32, Codabar and GS1-Databar (most popular types).

APPENDIX K SHUTTLE DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM
The Shuttle demonstration program SG15Demo.exe can be found in the
Product Support Library (directory \Demonstration Tool).
This program can be used for quick and easy demonstrations or for
experimenting. You can see literally, what is sent to an SG-15Colour or what is
received from it. Just connect to your SG-15Colour and try it. It's really that easy!
This program is merely the same as a normal Telnet program, with the addition of
some useful features for demonstration purposes.
Some notes:
1. Regarding the Network Connection Properties of your PC:
You may have to turn OFF DHCP and make sure the IP address of your PC
is in the same IP range as the Shuttle you want to communicate with.
For instance by giving your PC IP address: 192.168.1.250.
2. Set the SG-15Colour in Server Mode (= Factory Default) as also described
in Chapter 5.5.
3. If this appears to be necessary: Add SG15Demo.exe
in the list of Exceptions under Windows Firewall.
Using the Demo program
You can manually enter text, which will be displayed on the SG-15Colour screen.
Just click on the blue edit screen of this program and start typing.
Don't forget to 'Connect' first!
76
Appendices
You can also give SG-15Colour Control (ESC) commands.
Just hit the ESC key, which sends an actual esc-character (0x1b).
Examples:
Colour
Clear the SG-15
screen:
Hit 'ESC' key
Enter '%'
Kick the Shuttle into Sleep
Hit 'ESC' key
Enter @
Make the speaker sound
Hit ESC key
Enter ^
Wake up the ShuttleC again
Hit ‘ESC’ key
Enter Capital A
Consult Appendix B for more ESC command examples.
When you scan a barcode at the SG-15Colour, the program responds with
1 of 5 predefined texts. Select the option ' Respond to barcodes'
On the blue edit field you can actually see what exactly is received or transmitted.

WiFi info
Colour
A short note on this SG-15
WiFi version:
To bring the SG-15 up to date regarding WiFi connectivity and to achieve the
following goals:
• Support of modern 2016+ WiFi standard IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac
• More compact, less components and energy
• Use latest technology also applied in modern tablets and PC's
• Better continuity and long term availability,
the SG-15 WiFi technology is now soldered directly on the motherboard.
This may be hardware-wise less flexible, but provides you all above-mentioned
advantages.
If you require the SG-15 WiFi, please order as per PartNumbers as specified in
Appendix J.

Showing the SG-15 status
The Shuttle+ Price Checker is a kind of black box -from the outside-,
where it concerns the primary network parameters.
In order to make Installation and Service easier, the Terminal Status Request
by Bar Code feature has been implemented.
With the ultimate goal to decrease the Total Cost of Ownership.
How does it work:
• Scanning this barcode at the ShuttleC will show its status and configuration
info.
• Scan multiple times to show several pages; 4 when WiFi module is placed,
3 for wired Ethernet.
• The contents of bar code is configurable through the webbrowser.
Default code type and content is EAN-13 8712345910013.
• The feature can be turned off if desired.
• This feature is reading-out info only. For security reasons we have chosen
not to make the SG-15 parameters bar code programmable.
This control bar code (a.k.a. as ‘Kill’) will close the running application(s)
set the SG-15 to DeskTop.
