QUICK START
The configuration of the scanner can be done by reading the setup barcodes contained in
this manual or via the ScanMaster software.
This section describes the procedure of configuring the scanner by reading the setup
barcodes and provides some examples for demonstration.
Configuration Mode
1)
Hold down the [Power/Delete] key for 2 seconds to turn on the scanner. It will respond with a
long beep and its LED will come on-off.
2)
Read the “Enter Setup” barcode. It will respond with six beeps and its LED indicator will
become flashing red after reading the barcode.
3)
Read more setup barcodes… Most of the setup barcodes are normal, and the scanner will
respond with two beeps (low-high tone). For special setup barcodes, it requires reading more
than one setup barcode to complete the setting.
4)
Read the “Update” or “Abort” barcode. It will respond with six beeps and its LED indicator will
become flashing red after reading the barcode.
5)
The scanner will restart automatically upon reading the “Update” or “Abort” barcode. It will
respond with a long beep and its LED will come on-off.
Note: Refer to Appendix II Host Serial Commands for how to configure the 3610 dongle
by having the scanner read 3610-related setup barcodes or using serial
commands.
Update
1662 L/1664 Barcode Scanner User Guide
Working Mode
Upon powering up, the scanner will try to establish a connection with 3610 or a computer with
Bluetooth® wireless technology. Refer to Chapter 3 - Set up a WPAN Connection for details. The
connection between the scanners and 3610 is made easy and reliable. Now, it also supports
Bluetooth® SPP Master Mode as an alternative. Refer to 2.3 Bluetooth® SPP Master.

For most of the scanner parameters, only one read is required to set them to new values.
The scanner will respond with two beeps (low-high tone) when each parameter is set
successfully. Refer to Create One-Scan Setup Barcodes.
But for a number of special parameters, multiple reads are required to complete the
setting. In this case, the scanner will respond with a short beep to indicate it needs to
read more setup barcodes. These special parameters may require reading one or more
setup barcodes, such as
 Numeric barcodes, say, for keyboard type, inter-character delay, length qualification
 Hexadecimal barcodes, say, for character strings as prefix, suffix, etc.
 When “Bluetooth® HID” or “USB HID” is configured for interface, Key Type and Key
Status will then become applicable. Decide whether to change key status when
“Normal Key” is selected for Key Type.
To complete the configuration of these special parameters, it requires reading the
“Validate” barcode, and the scanner will respond with two beeps (low-high tone) to
indicate the input values are validated.

CREATE ONE-SCAN SETUP BARCODES
The fact is most of the scanner parameters require only one read for setting new values.
To facilitate configuring the scanner, you may create One-Scan setup barcodes for use.
The requirements of a One-Scan setup barcode are:
 a prefix of the “#@” characters
 the six digits of command parameters
 a suffix of the “#”character
For example, the scanner needs the reading of three setup barcodes for the command
parameter “109952” to take effect:
Enter Setup
List Page 3

for 109952
Note: The scanner will restart automatically upon reading the One-Scan setup barcode
for (1) changing the interface or (2) setting memory mode, enable or disable. It
will respond with a long beep and its LED will come on-off.

1.1.2 AUTO POWER OFF & POWER-SAVING
The scanner will stay active at power-on, which may be followed by a transition from full
CPU speed to low CPU speed (Power-Saving) to auto shutdown (Auto Power Off).
 Power-Saving (1~254 min.; 0= Disable): By default, it is set to stand by at full-speed
for 2 minutes before it enters low-speed mode. If this feature is not desired, set it to
0.
 Auto Power Off (1~254 min.; 0= Disable): By default, it is set to automatically shut
down after 10 minutes. If this feature is not desired, set it to 0.
Note: 1. The Power-Saving setting will still take effect once a connection has been
established successfully, via Bluetooth® HID or SPP.
2.
There will be a time delay to reactivate 2D scan engine when scanner comes back
from power off mode.
Before establishing a WPAN connection successfully…
1)
The scanner will stay active for a specified period of time (2 minutes by default) for the
following scenarios. Its CPU is running at full speed, and the LED is flashing blue (On/Off ratio
0.5 s: 0.5 s).
(a) waiting for a connection request from the host (Bluetooth® SPP Slave Mode)
(b) trying to connect to the host (Bluetooth® HID or Bluetooth® SPP Master Mode)
(c) trying to connect to 3610
2)
If it fails to connect within 2 minutes, the scanner will become inactive to save power for the
remaining period of time (the specified value minus 2 minutes). Its CPU is running at low
speed, and the LED is flashing red (On/Off ratio 0.3 s: 2.5 s).
Press the [Trigger] key to wake up the scanner when it becomes inactive, and the scanner will
stay active again.
3)
If it fails to connect again and again, and finally stays inactive until the specified time interval
for Auto Power Off has elapsed, the scanner will automatically turn off in order to conserve
battery power.
Hold down the [Power/Delete] key for 2 seconds to turn it on.
Note: For scenarios (a) and (b) in step 1, on your computer you may need to search for
the scanner again.

After establishing a WPAN connection successfully…
1)
Once a WPAN connection is established successfully, the scanner will stay active for a specified
period of time (2 minutes by default) for data transmission. Its CPU is running at full speed,
and the LED is flashing blue (On/Off ratio 0.02 s: 3 s).
2)
If it is idle within 2 minutes, the scanner will become inactive to save power for the remaining
period of time (the specified value minus 2 minutes). Its CPU is running at low speed, and the
LED is flashing red (On/Off ratio 0.3 s: 2.5 s).
Press the [Trigger] key to wake up the scanner when it becomes inactive, and the scanner will
stay active again.
3)
If it is idle and finally stays inactive until the specified time interval for Auto Power Off has
elapsed, the scanner will automatically turn off in order to conserve battery power. The three
short beeps will ring out, tone descending from high to low.
Hold down the [Power/Delete] key for 2 seconds to turn it on.
For Bluetooth® HID, the scanner will resume connection with the host upon powering on
again, as long as the host application is running. The three short beeps will ring out, tone
ascending from low to high. If the scanner fails to resume connection, it will try every 5
seconds to re-connect to the host unless the “Reset Connection” barcode has been
scanned.
For Bluetooth® SPP Slave Mode, the scanner must wait for the host to re-connect.
For Bluetooth® SPP Master Mode, the scanner will resume connection with the host upon
powering on again, as long as the host application is running. The three short beeps will
ring out, tone ascending from low to high. If the scanner fails to resume connection, it will
try every 5 seconds to re-connect to the host unless the “Reset Connection” or “Restore
System Defaults” barcode has been scanned.
With the use of 3610, the scanner will try re-connecting to 3610 whilst the scanner is
active.

1.2 MEMORY
The scanned data can be sent to a host computer immediately via the WPAN connection
or stored in flash memory when the scanner is set to Memory mode.
1.2.1 TRANSMIT BUFFER
By default, the transmit buffer is enabled and ready for use when the scanner is out of
range. Upon reading a barcode successfully within range, the scanner responds with one
short beep (high tone) and its LED indicator becomes solid green and goes off. However,
the host computer may not receive the data immediately if the scanner is out of range.
With the 10 KB transmit buffer, the scanner can ignore the transmission status and keep
on reading barcodes until the buffer is full.
When transmit buffer is enabled…
If the scanner is out of range, it will respond with two short beeps, high-low tone, upon reading a
barcode successfully.
When transmit buffer is full, the scanner will respond with one long beep (low tone) and its LED
indicator will become solid red and go off. You are advised to get back into range.

Send Data
When the memory is used up, the scanner will respond with two short beeps (high-low tone) as a
warning. It is advised to send data to the host immediately by having the scanner read the “Send
Data” barcode below.
1662 L/1664 can send data via “Direct USB” interface once the computer has found the USB
connection. Refer to 1.13 Use Direct USB Cable. Because the time-out value is set to 0 by default,
connect the cable before having the scanner read the “Send Data” barcode. Otherwise, the scanner
will try to temporarily resume the previous WPAN connection with the host, if there is any.
During transmission of data collected in memory mode, if the transmission fails, the scanner will
flash red (On/Off ratio 0.2 s: 0.2 s) after responding with two short beeps (high-low tone) and go
back to previous working mode. Press trigger or power key to stop flashing.

1.7.5 MULTI-BARCODE MODE
The scanner will be scanning as long as the trigger is held down, capable of decoding one
single barcode, as well as multiple unique barcodes one at a time. While decoding a
bunch of unique barcodes, if a barcode is decoded twice, its subsequent decoding will be
ignored and the scanner is expecting another unique barcode.
 The scanning won't stop until you release the trigger.

Note: (1) A barcode is considered unique when its Code Type or data is different from
others.
(2) Multi-Barcode Mode is not related to the Multi-Barcode Editor.

1.10 READ REDUNDANCY FOR ALL SYMBLOGIES
Select the level of reading security. For example,
 If "No Redundancy" is selected, one successful decoding will make the reading valid
and induce the "READER Event".
 If "Three Times" is selected, it will take a total of four consecutive successful
decoding of the same barcode to make the reading valid. The higher the reading
security is (that is, the more redundancy the user selects), the slower the reading
speed gets.
It is obvious that the more redundancy selected, the higher the reading security is, and
thus, the slower the reading speed becomes. It has to compromise between reading
security and decoding speed.

1.11 ADDON SECURITY FOR UPC/EAN BARCODES
The scanner is capable of decoding a mix of UPC/EAN barcodes with and without addons.
The read redundancy (0~30 times) allows changing the number of times to decode a
UPC/EAN barcode before transmission. The more redundancy selected, the higher the
reading security is, and thus, the slower the reading speed becomes.
Note: UPC/EAN Addon 2 and Addon 5 must be enabled individually for this setting to
take effect.

step 8 in 3.2.3 Connect to Dongle.
1)
Read the “Use preset PIN” barcode to enable authentication with a preset PIN.
Use Preset PIN
2)
Read one of the barcodes to specify the PIN code, in decimal or hexadecimal.
By default, the PIN code is set to “0000”. Maximum 16 characters are allowed.
Enter PIN in

3)
Read the “Decimal Value” barcode on page 錯誤! 尚未定義書籤。 or the “Hexadecimal Value”
barcode on page 錯誤! 尚未定義書籤。 for the desired digits or character string.
Read the “Clear PIN Code” barcode first if you need to re-input the PIN code.
Clear PIN Code
4)
Read the “Validate” barcode to complete this setting.
Enable Authentication with Random PIN or No Authentication
By default, it is set to “No PIN or use random PIN”, which depends on the setting of the target
device. (No PIN = No authentication.)

Use random PIN
No PIN required
Note: When using Bluetooth® HID, some device driver may not support pre-defined PIN
code for authentication. In this case, make sure you have the scanner set to “No
PIN or use random PIN” before pairing. While pairing, the host PIN code will be
displayed on the computer screen. Have the scanner read the setup barcode
“Enter PIN Code in Decimal” or “Enter PIN Code in Hexadecimal” to input the
matching PIN code. Refer to 錯誤! 找不到參照來源。.

Set up a WPAN Connection
3.2.3 CONNECT TO DONGLE
The procedure goes through associating devices for establishing a WPAN connection,
which is pretty much the same except for the software you are using. If your computer is
running Microsoft® Windows® XP (SP1 to SP3), Windows Vista® Service Pack 1 (SP1) and
Windows 7, you can use the software support that Windows® includes, or you can use
the driver that the device manufacturer provides. Now, let’s try using the software
support that Windows® XP Service Pack 2 includes.
Bluetooth® HID Procedure
By default, Bluetooth® HID is activated on the 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.
Bluetooth® SPP Procedure
1)
2)
Turn on the Bluetooth® function on your computer, running Windows XP SP2.
Double-click the Bluetooth® icon from the lower right of the taskbar.
Alternatively, you may go to Control Panel > Bluetooth Devices.
3)
Click [Add] to search devices nearby.

4)
Turn on the scanner with correct WPAN settings, such as select Bluetooth® SPP or Bluetooth®
HID, broadcasting enabled, authentication enabled, and PIN code specified, etc. Select the
check box of [My device is set up and ready to be found] on your computer.
5)
Click [Next].
6)
Wait for a few seconds for the Wizard to search available 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 a specified period of
time (2 minutes by default) and wait for PC to establish a connection.

11)
Now the target scanner will be listed as shown below.
You can have up to seven scanners connected to one computer at the same time.
Select and Remove
Note: When any changes are made to authentication and PIN code on the scanner side,
or you want to change to use Bluetooth® HID, it is suggested that you remove the
scanner from the paired device list (called unpairing) and go through the whole
process to re-establish the connection.
12)
Run the desired application on your computer, such as HyperTerminal.exe if using Bluetooth®
SPP or Notepad.exe if using Bluetooth® HID.
The status of the scanner listed on the device list will be updated to “Connected”, indicating
the WPAN connection is established successfully via the outgoing COM port if using
Bluetooth® SPP.
Note: Even though the scanner is connected to the host with authentication disabled (=
no PIN code required), the host may still request a PIN code while the application
is opening COM port. Dynamic input of PIN code is supported so that you may
input a matching PIN code on the scanner. Refer to 錯誤! 找不到參照來源。.
