![12Enter Setup 1600 Series Barcode Scanner User Guide5) Replace the battery lid and lock it firmly. 1.1.2 HOW TO OPERATE THE SCANNER To turn on the scanner, press the [Delete] key for 3 seconds, and the scanner will respond with a long beep (high tone). To turn off the scanner, press the [Delete] key for 1.5 seconds. The scanner will respond with short beep (high tone) and the LED will become solid green, then go off, and finally become solid red. Release the key then. To delete the last collected data, press the [Delete] key. The scanner will respond with short beep (high tone) and the LED will become solid green. Before the LED goes off (within 1 second), press the [Delete] key again to confirm the deletion. 1.1.3 AUTO POWER OFF Specify the time interval (1~254 min.; 0= disable) for the scanner to wait for a computer to establish a connection via a Bluetooth dongle. By default, the 1660 scanner will stay active for 10 minutes waiting for a connection request. If it fails to connect within the time interval, the scanner will automatically turn off in order to conserve battery power (you will hear three short beeps, tone descending from high to low). Press the [Delete] key for 3 seconds to turn it on. On your computer, you will have to search Bluetooth devices again. Once a Bluetooth connection is established successfully, the scanner will stay active as long as the COM port is opened by a host application. 1) Read the label above to specify the time interval before the scanner automatically turns off. 2) Read the “Decimal Value” label on page 123. For example, read “1” and “5” for the scanner to automatically turn off after being idle for 15 minutes. 3) Read the “Validate” label on the same page to complete this setting. Auto Off after 0~254 minutes (*10)](https://usermanual.wiki/CipherLab/1660/User-Guide-925344-Page-24.png)
![15UpdateChapter 1 !ΖCLEAR DATA & CONFIRM Even though data has been sent back to the server, the flash memory is still occupied unless you erase the memory by having the scanner read two labels – “Clear Data” and “Confirm”. 1) Read the “Clear Data” label to clear the flash memory. 2) Read the “Confirm” label to confirm the action. 1.3 LED INDICATOR The triple-color LED on top of the scanner is used to provide user feedback. For example, the LED becomes solid red and goes off quickly (= Standby mode) upon powering on or running out of transmit buffer. You may tell the difference by the beeps – for example, you will hear a long beep of high tone when powering on the scanner, and a long beep of low tone when the transmit buffer becomes full. LED – Red/Green/Blue MeaningGreen, and goes off quickly, and becomes red, and finally goes off when the [Delete] key is released.

![31UpdateIn order to establish a proper connection between your computer and the scanner, we suggest that you follow these instructions – 1) Install batteries and press the [Delete] key for 3 seconds to turn on the scanner. 2) Have the scanner read the “Enter Setup” label to enter the configuration mode. 3) Have the scanner read the associated label to activate the desired interface. See the following sections for output interfaces supported. 4) Have the scanner read the labels for related settings. 5) Have the scanner read the “Update” label to exit the configuration mode. Note: By default, the output interface is set to “Bluetooth HID”.

![44Enter Setup 1600 Series Barcode Scanner User Guide3.2 CONNECTING VIA BLUETOOTH DONGLE This is called "pairing with a Bluetooth device". The procedure for connecting the scanner to a computer via a Bluetooth dongle is pretty much the same except for the software you are using. Note: When connecting more than two Bluetooth scanners to a computer via the Bluetooth dongle, we suggest you to disable “Sniff Mode” for a more reliable connection. If your computer is running Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) or Windows Vista, you can use the generic software support that Windows includes, or you can use the driver that the device manufacturer provides. Now, let’s try using the generic software support that Windows XP Service Pack 2 includes.3.2.1 BLUETOOTH HID – ADD BLUETOOTH DEVICE WIZARD By default, Bluetooth HID is activated on the 1660 scanner, and the keyboard type is set to PCAT (US). When Bluetooth HID is re-activated, you will have to select a keyboard type to complete this setting. The procedure is the same as for Bluetooth SPP. Refer to steps 1~11 below. 3.2.2 BLUETOOTH SPP – ADD BLUETOOTH DEVICE WIZARD 1) Connect a Bluetooth dongle to your computer, running Windows XP SP2. 2) Double-click the Bluetooth icon fro the lower right of the taskbar. Alternatively, you may go to Control Panel > Bluetooth Devices.3) Click [Add] to search Bluetooth devices nearby. 4) Select the check box of [My device is set up and ready to be found] when the Bluetooth scanner is ready – having battery inserted or USB cable connected, Bluetooth settings such as select Bluetooth SPP or Bluetooth HID, broadcasting enabled, authentication enabled, and PIN code specified, etc. 5) Click [Next]. 6) Wait for a few seconds for the Wizard to search available Bluetooth devices nearby. The scanner will appear with its “serial number” as the device name. You may double-check the “Serial Number” label on the scanner to ensure connecting with the correct scanner. Select the target scanner. If the target scanner does not appear on the list, click [Search Again] to refresh the list. The scanner might enter Suspend Mode now, and you can press the trigger to have it active again (=discoverable). It will then stay active for one minute and wait for PC to establish a connection. 7) Click [Next]. 2](https://usermanual.wiki/CipherLab/1660/User-Guide-925344-Page-56.png)

![89UpdateYou may configure in which format the collected data will be output to the host computer. Barcode read by the scanner will be processed in the following sequence – 1) Perform character substitution on the data scanned. 2) Add Code ID and Length Code to the front of the data: [Code ID][Length Code][Data] 3) Process the whole data in step 2 with user formats. Data is now divided into fields by user specified rules. 4) Add Prefix Code and Suffix Code before transmission: [Prefix Code][Processed Data][Suffix Code] IN THIS CHAPTER 5.1 Letter Case ............................................................... 89 5.2 Character Substitution................................................ 90 5.3 Prefix/Suffix Code ...................................................... 96 5.4 Code ID.................................................................... 97 5.5 Length Code ............................................................101 5.6 Multi-Barcode Editor..................................................104 5.1 LETTER CASE By default, the alphabets transmission is case-sensitive, meaning that the alphabets will be transmitted according to their original case.

![90Enter Setup 1600 Series Barcode Scanner User Guide5.2 CHARACTER SUBSTITUTION Character substitution is performed on every occurrence of the first character specified. If only one character is specified, every occurrence of that character in the barcode will be taken away. The first character will be replaced by the second character(s). Up to three sets of character substitution can be configured. Note: The character substitution is performed only on the barcode itself and before the processing of editing formats. It is not applicable to the Prefix/Suffix Code, Code ID, Length Code, or any Additional Field. 5.2.1 SELECT A SET FOR CHARACTER SUBSTITUION 1) Read the label above to enable character substitution by set. For example, have the scanner read the “Set 1” label to configure the first set of character substitution. The scanner will respond with one short beep, high tone, to indicate more setup labels are required. 2) Read the “Hexadecimal Value” label on page 124 for the desired character string. For example, have the scanner read (1) “3”, “0”, “2” and “D” to replace the character [0] with a dash [-] for Set 1, and (2) “3”, “0”, “2”, “D”, “3” and “0”to replace the character [0] with a dash [- 0] for Set 2. 3) Read the “Validate” label on the same page to complete this setting.

Up to 8 characters can be configured, for example, “Barcode_”, and you will have the string appear in front of the barcode read, like this – “Barcode_1234567890”.If “Keyboard Wedge” is configured for interface, Key Type and Key Status will then become applicable. You may decide whether or not to apply Key Status when “Normal Key” is selected for Key Type.

(Max. 8 characters each) 2) Read the “Hexadecimal Value” label on page 124 for the desired character string. For example, read “2” and “B” for the scanner to prefix or suffix the character [+]. 3) Read the “Validate” label on the same page to complete this setting.
