Scanning Bar Codes32 Falcon® 4400 Series with Windows® CEFigure 19. Scanning a Bar Code2. Aim the scan window at the bar code following the guidelines outlined in Figure 20.3. Press <Scan> on the keypad (26, 52 or 52-key NU) or the Scan Trigger on the handle. The laser scans as long as you hold the button or trigger, or for 10 seconds, or until a good scan is obtained.4. Aim the laser beam at the center of the bar code. • Position the unit close to bar code when scanning small bar codes. • Position it at a distance when scanning larger bar codes. • The laser is disabled after you release the key or after 10 seconds, or once a good scan is obtained.Figure 20. Laser Beam Positions Press <Scan> on the keypad (26, 52 or 52-key Correct Scanning PositionsIncorrect Scanning PositionsIdeal positioning A bit high, will read correctly A bit angled, will read correctlyPositioned too far to the right.

Scanning Bar CodesQuick Reference Guide 335. The device beeps and the green LED indicator comes on until the trig-ger is released. The green LED and the beep tone indicate a good read. 6. The bar code data is entered in the current application. 7. Once a bar code is read successfully, the scanner turns off automatically. Refer to the section on Scanner Configuration in the PRG to modify the default settings. Bar Code Scanning with 2D ImagerScanning bar codes with the 2D imaging device is similar to scanning with a laser scanner. The operation and configuration of the scanner is performed in the same way as laser scanning devices. Trigger behavior and scanning time-outs are the same as laser scanning devices.Scanning DifferencesScanning Aimer The imager contains an aiming beam rather than a red laser. The aiming beam mimics a laser line for purposes of orienting the imager to a bar code. Figure 21 shows how the aiming beam visually differs from the laser beam in laser scanning devices.Figure 21. Laser vs. Imaging beamNote that the aiming beam for the imager is green, rather than red. If the bar code scan failed, adjust the reading angle or distance. Make sure thatthe laser beam scans across all bars of the bar code. Refer to Figure 20.Laser Aiming Beam
Image Capture34 Falcon® 4400 Series with Windows® CEOrientationRotational orientation does not affect the imager module's ability to read bar codes. For example, the imager can read a bar code when the aimer beam is parallel to the lines of the bar code. What is important is the location of the aimer in relation to the center of the bar code. The aiming beam should be centered over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for a good read.Figure 22. Aiming Beam PositioningThe aiming beam is smaller when the imager is closer to the code and larger when it is farther away. Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil size) should be read farther from the unit. To scan a label, hold the imager at an appropriate distance from the target, pull the trigger, and center the aim-ing beam on the symbol. Scanning IlluminationAnother feature that can be enabled for 2D scanning is an array of illumina-tion LEDs. These LEDs provide illumination in dark environments and can improve scanning performance under certain lighting conditions. By default, the illumination LEDs are turned on. Illumination LEDs can be disabled using the PDT parameters. See the PRG for complete information on pro-gramming the LEDs.Image CaptureThe 2D imager can be used for capturing, manipulating, and transferring images. Linear bar codes 2D Matrix symbol

You can also scale, rotate, and modify image quality settings. See the PRG for detailed infor-mation on using the Falcon 2D for image capture. Flash MemoryIn addition to the RAM-based storage standard on Windows CE terminals, the Falcon is also equipped with Datalight FlashFX Flash-based application and file storage area. Refer to the PRG for more information.Saving to FlashTo save an application or data to the Flash Memory, from your current appli-cation, select File > Save As > navigate to the FlashFX Disk location as described below.Flash FX LocationTo access the contents of Flash Memory:1. Double-tap the My Device icon on the desktop.2. Double-tap the FlashFX Disk icon to view the FlashFX Disk.The FlashFX storage memory persists across all reset (warm/cold reboot) condi-tions and software / firmware updates. Because of this, Datalogic very strongly recommends installing all applications,applets, programs, and important data files to the FlashFX disk of the Falcon.If an application or a data file is only installed or saved in RAM, a hard reset willresult in the loss of that application or data file.

Resetting the Falcon38 Falcon® 4400 Series with Windows® CEResetting the FalconThere are two reset methods for the Falcon. • A warm reset terminates a “hung” application, and clears the working RAM, but preserves the file system. • A cold reset forces all applications to close and clears working RAM and files not resident on the FlashFX Disk.Warm ResetA warm reset is a transition from the on or idle condition that closes all appli-cations, clears the working RAM, but preserves the file system. If an application “hangs,” initiate a warm reset to terminate the application.Procedure to Warm Reset The reset procedure varies, depending upon the keypad on your Falcon. The first two keys of the sequence can be pressed in any order, but the unit will not reset until they both are held down and then the third key (<Bksp>, <F1> or <Del>) is pressed. All three keys must be held down for the unit to reset. Refer to Figure 26 on page 39 for the location of the reset keys.26-Key Falcon. Press and hold: <FN>+<Alpha>+<Bksp>.48-Key Falcon. Press and hold: <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Bksp>.52-Key Falcon. Press and hold: <Alt>+<FN>+<F1>.52-Key NU Falcon. Press and hold: <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Del>.CAUTIONDatalogic recommends that you always attempt a warm reset before initiating acold reset. Once you initiate a cold reset, all applications are forcibly closed andworking RAM and files are cleared. It is a good idea to store important data in FlashFX storage for this reason. Referto Flash Memory on page 35 for more information on Flash Memory.DO NOT use a sharp object on the reset button. Sharp objects can puncture thekeypad, disabling the reset function, rupturing the Falcon’s industrial seal, andvoiding your warranty.
