Getting Started

About This Manual
This User’s Guide provides installation and programming instructions for the Voyager™ 1450g corded area-imaging scanners
and Voyager 1452g cordless area-imaging scanners. Product specifications, dimensions, warranty, and customer support information are also included.
Note: The selections in this User’s Guide are dependent on the Voyager 145Xg model you have purchased.
PDF and 2 dimensional bar codes can only be read by model 145Xg2D and cannot be read by model 145Xg1D.
Honeywell bar code scanners are factory programmed for the most common terminal and communications settings. If you need
to change these settings, programming is accomplished by scanning the bar codes in this guide.
An asterisk (*) next to an option indicates the default setting.

Unpacking Your Device
After you open the shipping carton containing the product, take the following steps:
• Check for damage during shipment. Report damage immediately to the carrier who delivered the carton.
• Make sure the items in the carton match your order.
• Save the shipping container for later storage or shipping.

Connecting the Device

CCB01-010BT Base
USB Connection:

Note: The power supply must be ordered separately, if needed.
2. If you are connecting a CCB01-010BT Base, make sure the cables are secured in the wireways in the bottom of the
cordless base and the base sits flat on a horizontal surface.
3. The scanner beeps.
4. Verify the scanner or cordless base operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample Symbols in the back of this
manual.
The unit defaults to a USB PC Keyboard. Refer to page 2-3 for other USB terminal settings.
For additional USB programming and technical information, refer to “USB Application Note,” available at www.honeywellaidc.com.

Connecting with Keyboard Wedge
A scanner or cordless base can be connected between the keyboard and PC as a “keyboard wedge,” where the scanner
provides data output that is similar to keyboard entries. The following is an example of a keyboard wedge connection:
1. Turn off power and disconnect the keyboard cable from the back of the terminal/computer.
2. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the device and to the terminal/computer.

cordless base and the base sits flat on a horizontal surface.
4. Turn the terminal/computer power back on. The scanner beeps.
5. Verify the scanner or cordless base operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample Symbols in the back of this
manual. The scanner beeps once.
The unit defaults to an IBM PC AT and compatibles keyboard wedge interface with a USA keyboard. A carriage return (CR)
suffix is added to bar code data.

Connecting with RS232 Serial Port
1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer.
2. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the device.
Note: For the scanner or cordless base to work properly, you must have the correct cable for your type of terminal/computer.

Reading Techniques
The scanner has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam that corresponds to the scanner’s horizontal field of view.
The aiming beam should be centered over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for a good read.
Linear bar code

2D Matrix symbol

The aiming beam or pattern is smaller when the scanner is closer to the code and larger when it is farther from the code. 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 read single or multiple symbols (on a page or on an object), hold the scanner
at an appropriate distance from the target, press the trigger, and center the aiming beam or pattern on the symbol. If the code
being scanned is highly reflective (e.g., laminated), it may be necessary to tilt the code up 15° to 18° to prevent unwanted reflection.

Menu Bar Code Security Settings
Honeywell scanners are programmed by scanning menu bar codes or by sending serial commands to the scanner. If you want
to restrict the ability to scan menu codes, you can use the Menu Bar Code Security settings. Please contact the nearest technical support office (see Customer Support on page 13-1) for further information.

1-6

Setting Custom Defaults
You have the ability to create a set of menu commands as your own, custom defaults. To do so, scan the Set Custom Defaults
bar code below before scanning the menu commands for your custom defaults. If a menu command requires scanning numeric
codes from the back cover, then a Save code, that entire sequence will be saved to your custom defaults. When you have
entered all the commands you want to save for your custom defaults, scan the Save Custom Defaults bar code.

Set Custom Defaults

Save Custom Defaults

Note: When using a cordless system, the Custom Defaults settings apply to all workgroups. Scanning the Save Defaults bar
code also causes both the scanner and the base or Access Point to perform a reset and become unlinked. The scanner
must be placed in its base to re-establish the link before any setup codes are entered. If using an Access Point, the linking
bar code must be scanned. See Cordless System Operation beginning on page 3-1 for additional information.
You may have a series of custom settings and want to correct a single setting. To do so, just scan the new setting to overwrite
the old one. For example, if you had previously saved the setting for Beeper Volume at Low to your custom defaults, and decide
you want the beeper volume set to High, just scan the Set Custom Defaults bar code, then scan the Beeper Volume High
menu code, and then Save Custom Defaults. The rest of the custom defaults will remain, but the beeper volume setting will be
updated.

Resetting the Custom Defaults
If you want the custom default settings restored to your scanner, scan the Activate Custom Defaults bar code below. This is
the recommended default bar code for most users. It resets the scanner to the custom default settings. If there are no custom
defaults, it will reset the scanner to the factory default settings. Any settings that have not been specified through the custom
defaults will be defaulted to the factory default settings.

Activate Custom Defaults

Note: If using a cordless system, scanning this bar code also causes both the scanner and the base or Access Point to perform
a reset and become unlinked. The scanner must be placed in its base to re-establish the link. If using an Access Point,

Keyboard Style
This programs keyboard styles, such as Caps Lock and Shift Lock. If you have used Keyboard Conversion settings, they will
override any of the following Keyboard Style settings. Default = Regular.
Regular is used when you normally have the Caps Lock key off.

* Regular

Caps Lock is used when you normally have the Caps Lock key on.

Caps Lock

2 - 15

Shift Lock is used when you normally have the Shift Lock key on (not common to U.S. keyboards).

Shift Lock

Automatic Caps Lock is used if you change the Caps Lock key on and off. The software tracks and reflects if you have Caps
Lock on or off . This selection can only be used with systems that have an LED that notes the Caps Lock status (AT keyboards).

Automatic Caps Lock

Autocaps via NumLock bar code should be scanned in countries (e.g., Germany, France) where the Caps Lock key cannot be
used to toggle Caps Lock. The NumLock option works similarly to the regular Autocaps, but uses the NumLock key to retrieve
the current state of the Caps Lock.

Autocaps via NumLock

Emulate External Keyboard should be scanned if you do not have an external keyboard (IBM AT or equivalent).

Emulate External Keyboard

Note: After scanning the Emulate External Keyboard bar code, you must power cycle your computer.

Keyboard Conversion
Alphabetic keyboard characters can be forced to be all upper case or all lowercase. So if you have the following bar code:
“abc569GK,” you can make the output “ABC569GK” by scanning Convert All Characters to Upper Case, or to “abc569gk” by
scanning Convert All Characters to Lower Case.
These settings override Keyboard Style selections.
Note: If your interface is a keyboard wedge, first scan the menu code for Automatic Caps Lock (page 2-16). Otherwise, your
output may not be as expected.
Default = Keyboard Conversion Off.

* Keyboard Conversion Off

Control Character Output
This selection sends a text string instead of a control character. For example, when the control character for a carriage return is
expected, the output would display [CR] instead of the ASCII code of 0D. Refer to ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page
1252) on page A-3. Only codes 00 through 1F are converted (the first column of the chart). Default = Off.
Note: Control + ASCII Mode overrides this mode.

Control Character Output On

* Control Character Output Off

Keyboard Modifiers
This modifies special keyboard features, such as CTRL+ ASCII codes and Turbo Mode.
Control + ASCII Mode On: The scanner sends key combinations for ASCII control characters for values 00-1F. Windows is
the preferred mode. All keyboard country codes are supported. DOS mode is a legacy mode, and it does not support all keyboard country codes. New users should use the Windows mode. Refer to Keyboard Function Relationships, page 8-1 for
CTRL+ ASCII Values.
Windows Mode Prefix/Suffix Off: The scanner sends key combinations for ASCII control characters for values 00-1F, but it
does not translate any prefix or suffix information.
Default = Control + ASCII Mode Off.

RS232 Word Length: Data Bits, Stop Bits, and Parity
Data Bits sets the word length at 7 or 8 bits of data per character. If an application requires only ASCII Hex characters 0
through 7F decimal (text, digits, and punctuation), select 7 data bits. For applications that require use of the full ASCII set,
select 8 data bits per character. Default = 8.
Stop Bits sets the stop bits at 1 or 2. Default = 1.
Parity provides a means of checking character bit patterns for validity.
Default = None.

RS232 Receiver Time-Out
The unit stays awake to receive data until the RS232 Receiver Time-Out expires. A manual trigger resets the time-out.
When an RS232 receiver is sleeping, a character may be sent to wake up the receiver and reset the time-out. A transaction
on the CTS line will also wake up the receiver. The receiver takes 300 milliseconds to completely come up. Change the
RS232 receiver time-out by scanning the bar code below, then scanning digits from the inside back cover of this manual,
then scanning Save. The range is 0 to 300 seconds. Default = 0 seconds (no time-out - always on).

RS232 Receiver Time-Out

RS232 Handshaking
RS232 Handshaking allows control of data transmission from the scanner using software commands from the host device.
When RTS/CTS is turned Off, no data flow control is used.
Flow Control, No Timeout: The scanner asserts RTS when it has data to send, and will wait indefinitely for CTS to be
asserted by the host.

2 - 20

Two-Direction Flow Control: The scanner asserts RTS when it is OK for the host to transmit. The host asserts CTS
when it is OK for the device to transmit.
Flow Control with Timeout: The scanner asserts RTS when it has data to send and waits for a delay (see RS232
Timeout on page 2-21) for CTS to be asserted by the host. If the delay time expires and CTS is not asserted, the device
transmit buffer is cleared and scanning may resume. Default = RTS/CTS Off.

Flow Control, No Timeout

Two-Direction Flow Control

Flow Control with Timeout

* RTS/CTS Off

RS232 Timeout
When using Flow Control with Timeout, you must program the length of the delay you want to wait for CTS from the host.
Set the length (in milliseconds) for a timeout by scanning the bar code below, then setting the timeout (from 1-5100 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the inside back cover, then scanning Save.

RS232 Timeout

XON/XOFF
Standard ASCII control characters can be used to tell the scanner to start sending data (XON/XOFF On) or to stop sending
data (XON/XOFF Off). When the host sends the XOFF character (DC3, hex 13) to the scanner, data transmission stops.
To resume transmission, the host sends the XON character (DC1, hex 11). Data transmission continues where it left off
when XOFF was sent. Default = XON/XOFF Off.

XON/XOFF On

* XON/XOFF Off

2 - 21

ACK/NAK
After transmitting data, the scanner waits for an ACK character (hex 06) or a NAK character (hex 15) response from the
host. If ACK is received, the communications cycle is completed and the scanner looks for more bar codes. If NAK is
received, the last set of bar code data is retransmitted and the scanner waits for ACK/NAK again. Turn on the ACK/NAK
protocol by scanning the ACK/NAK On bar code below. To turn off the protocol, scan ACK/NAK Off. Default = ACK/NAK
Off.

ACK/NAK On

* ACK/NAK Off

Scanner to Bioptic Communication
The following settings are used to set up communication between Honeywell scanners and bioptic scanners.
Note: The scanner’s baud rate must be set to 38400 and the RS232 timeout must be set to 3000 in order to communicate with
a bioptic scanner. See "RS232 Baud Rate" on page 2-18, and RS232 Timeout on page 2-21 for further information.

Scanner-Bioptic Packet Mode
Packet Mode On must be scanned to set the scanner’s format so it is compatible with a bioptic scanner. Default = Packet
Mode Off.

* Packet Mode Off

Packet Mode On

Scanner-Bioptic ACK/NAK Mode
Bioptic ACK/Nak On must be scanned so the scanner will wait for an ACK or NAK from a bioptic scanner after each packet
is sent. The Scanner-Bioptic ACK/NAK Timeout (below) controls how long the scanner will wait for a response. Default =
Bioptic ACK/NAK Off.

* Bioptic ACK/NAK Off

Cordless System Operation

Note: This chapter applies only to cordless scanning systems. It does not apply to corded scanners.

How the Cordless Charge Base/Access Point Works
A cordless charge base or an Access Point provide the link between the cordless scanner and the host system. The base/
Access Point contains an interface assembly and an RF communication module. The RF communication module performs the
data exchange between the cordless scanner and the interface assembly. The control assembly coordinates the central interface activities including: transmitting/receiving commands and data to/from the host system, performing software activities
(parameter menuing, visual indicator support, power-on diagnostics), and data translation required for the host system.
The cordless charge base is also a scanner’s battery charger. Refer to Charging Information, page 3-4, for additional information.

Linking the Scanner to a Charge Base
Turn off power before connecting a base, then power up the computer once the base is fully connected. When the base is connected and powered up, put the scanner in the base to establish a link. The green LED on the base flashes to indicate the scanner’s battery is charging.
If the scanner and base have previously been linked, you do not receive any feedback. If this is the first time that the scanner
and base are linked, both devices emit a short chirp when their radios link. At this point, that one scanner is linked to one base.

CCB01-010BT Charge Base
Page Button and Base LEDs
To determine if your cordless system is set up correctly, scan one of the sample bar codes in the back of this manual. If the
scanner provides a single good read beep and the green LED lights, the scanner has successfully linked to the base. If you
receive an error tone and the red LED lights, the scanner has not linked to the base. Refer to page 12-4 for troubleshooting
information.

Linking the Scanner to an Access Point
Turn on the computer (laptop/desktop). Plug the interface cable into the Access Point first and
then into the appropriate port on the computer. The Page button lights up when the connection to
the host is made.

Page

Scan the linking bar code on the top of the Access Point to establish a connection
between the Access Point and the scanner. The scanner emits a short beep and
flashes the green LED to confirm a connection with the Access Point. The Access
Point’s Page button remains blue.

Replacing a Linked Scanner
If you need to replace a broken or lost scanner that is linked to a base or an Access Point, scan the Override Locked Scanner
bar code below with a new scanner and place that scanner in the base, or scan the Access Point linking bar code. The locked
link will be overridden; the broken or lost scanner’s link with the base or Access Point will be removed, and the new scanner will
be linked.

Override Locked Scanner
(Single Scanner)

Communication Between the Cordless System
and the Host
The cordless scanner provides immediate feedback in the form of a “good read” indication with a green LED on the scanner and
an audible beep. This indicates that the bar code has been scanned correctly and the base or Access Point has acknowledged
receiving the data. This is possible since the cordless system provides two-way communication between the scanner and the
base or Access Point.
When data is scanned, the data is sent to the host system via the base or Access Point. The cordless scanner recognizes data
acknowledgement (ACK) from the base or Access Point. If it cannot be determined that the data has been properly sent to the
base or Access Point, the scanner issues an error indication. You must then check to see if the scanned data was received by
the host system.

2. Base or Access Point sends data to host

3-2

Programming the Scanner and Base or Access Point
When using the scanner and charge base or Access Point together as a system, menu parameters and configuration settings
are stored in the charge base or Access Point. Therefore, when programming any menu configuration settings, the scanner
must be linked to the intended charge base or Access Point.
Note: This only applies when the scanner is linked to a charge base or Access Point. If the scanner is in a non-base mode,
configuration settings are stored in the scanner.

RF (Radio Frequency) Module Operation
The cordless system uses a two-way Bluetooth® radio to transmit and receive data between the scanner and the base or
Access Point. Designed for point-to-point and multipoint-to-single point applications, the radio operates using a license free ISM
band, which sends relatively small data packets at a fast data rate over a radio signal with randomly changing frequencies,
makes the cordless system highly responsive to a wide variety of data collection applications and resistant to noisy RF environments. The CCB01-010BT (Bluetooth Class 2) provides a communication range of 33 feet (10m) between the scanner and
base or Access Point, depending on the environment. See Flexible Power Management, page 3-12, for information about controlling this range.

System Conditions
The components of the cordless system interact in specific ways as you associate a scanner to a base or Access Point, as you
move a scanner out of range, bring a scanner back in range, or swap scanners between two cordless systems. The following
information explains the cordless system operating conditions.

Linking Process
Once a scanner is placed into a cordless charge base, the scanner’s battery charge status is checked, and software automatically detects the scanner and links it to the base depending on the selected link mode.
Refer to Linking the Scanner to an Access Point, page 3-1, for information about linking to an Access Point.

Scanner Is Out of Range
The cordless scanner is in communication with its base or Access Point, even when it is not transmitting bar code data.
Whenever the scanner can’t communicate with the base or Access Point for a few seconds, it is out of range. If the scanner
is out of range and you scan a bar code, the scanner issues an error tone indicating no communication with the base or
Access Point. A cordless charge base can also sound an alarm. Refer to Out-of-Range Alarm, page 3-10.

Scanner Is Moved Back Into Range
The scanner relinks if the scanner or the base or Access Point have been reset, or the scanner comes back into range. If
the scanner relinks, you will hear a single chirp when the relinking process (uploading of the parameter table) is complete.
Refer to Out-of-Range Alarm on page 3-10 for further information.

Out of Range and Back into Range with Batch Mode On
The scanner may store a number of symbols (approximately 500 U.P.C. symbols; others may vary) when it is out of range
and then send them to the base or Access Point when back in range (see Batch Mode on page 3-13).
You will not hear a communication error tone in this mode, but you will hear a short buzz when you pull the trigger if the
radio communication is not working. Once the radio connection is made, the scanner produces a series of beeps while the
data is being transferred to the base or Access Point.

Page Button
When you press the Page button on the base or Access Point, the scanners associated with that base or Access Point will
begin beeping (3 short and 1 long beep). If you pull the trigger on a scanner that is beeping in response, or press the Page
button on the base or Access Point a second time, all associated scanners will stop beeping. See Paging on page 3-7 for
further information about Page Button settings.

About the Battery
There is a danger of explosion if the batteries are incorrectly replaced. Replace the batteries with only the same or
equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the recycle program for
batteries as directed by the governing agency for the country where the batteries are to be discarded.

!

Power is supplied to the cordless scanner by a rechargeable battery that is integrated in the scanner handle. Batteries are
shipped approximately 30% to 60% charged. The battery should be charged for a minimum of 4 hours before initial use to
ensure optimal performance.

Charging Information
The battery is designed to charge while the scanner is positioned in the cordless base unit. Refer to Base/Access Point
LED Sequences and Meaning, page 3-5, for an interpretation of the Charge Status indicators. Refer to Charge Only Mode
(page 3-9) if you need to charge a scanner without linking it to the base.
Place the scanner in the base that is connected to an appropriate power supply. Use only a Listed Limited Power Source
(LPS) or Class 2 type power supply with output rated 5 to 5.2Vdc, 1A.
Note: If you are powering the base through the interface cable (for example, a USB cable) and not using an external power
supply plugged into the aux port, the current available for charging is reduced and charge times are increased.

Battery Recommendations
• The battery is a lithium ion cell and can be used without a full charge, and can also be charged without fully discharging,
without impacting the battery life. There is no need to perform any charge/discharge conditioning on this type of battery.
• Keep the base connected to power when the host is not in use.
• Replace a defective battery immediately since it could damage the scanner.
• Although your battery can be recharged many times, it will eventually be depleted. Replace it after the battery is unable
to hold an adequate charge.
• If you are not sure if the battery or charger is working properly, send it to Honeywell International Inc. or an authorized
service center for inspection. Refer to Customer Support on page 13-1 for additional information.

Beeper and LED Sequences and Meaning
The scanner contains LEDs on the rear of the unit that indicate linking status, decoding state, and battery condition. The base
has LEDs on the top of the unit that indicate its power up, communication, and battery charge condition. The red LED = error;
green LED = success of any type. Scanners and the CCB01-010BT base have audible indicators as well: 1 razz or error tone =
error; 2 beeps = menu change; 1 beep = all other successes.
The table below lists the indication and cause of the LED indication, beeps, and vibrations for the scanner.

Base Charging Modes
When the base has both an external power supply (plugged into the auxiliary power port) and a host interface cable, it will draw
its power from the external power supply. When the base does not have an external power supply, it draws its power from the
interface cable. However, the scanner battery charges more slowly from a host interface cable than if auxiliary power were
available. Using the following selections, you can specify whether the scanner battery is charged from power supplied via the
host interface cable.
When Base Charge Off is selected, the scanner battery does not charge when the scanner is in the base cradle.
When External or Interface Cable Power is selected, the scanner battery charges from the base’s external power supply, if
there is one. If there is no external power supply to the base, the scanner battery charges from the interface cable.
When External Power Only is selected, the scanner battery only charges from the base’s external power supply. If there is no
external power supply, the scanner battery does not charge.
Note: If you are using a cordless charge base in Presentation Mode, External Power Only is the only setting available.

Scanner Modes
Your scanner is capable of working in single scanner mode, multiple scanner mode, or with Bluetooth devices other than the
charge base or Access Point.

Charge Only Mode
There may be times when you want to charge your scanner, but not link to the base. For example, if a scanner is linked to
an Access Point or other Bluetooth device and you need to charge the scanner, but want to retain your existing link.
In order to program the base for Charge Only Mode, you must link a scanner to it. Once the scanner is linked to the base,
scan the Charge Only Mode bar code. Any subsequent scanners placed in that base will charge without linking to it. The
scanner used to program the base remains linked to the base. To unlink this scanner, scan Unlink Scanner on page 3-10.

Charge Only Mode

Note: When in Charge Only Mode, the scanner periodically wakes up and beeps. See "Power Up Beeper" on page 4-1 to
change this setting.
If you want to charge a scanner and link to the base, use Charge and Link Mode. If the base is programmed for Charge
Only Mode, you must link a scanner to it first in order to program it for Charge and Link Mode. Scan the linking bar code on
the base to link the scanner, then scan Charge and Link Mode. Default = Charge and Link Mode.

* Charge and Link Mode

Linked Modes
Locked Link Mode and Open Link Mode are the link modes that accommodate different applications. Scan the appropriate
bar codes included in the Open Link and Locked Link Mode explanations that follow to switch from one mode to another.
Default = Open Link Mode.

3-9

Locked Link Mode - Single Scanner
If you link a scanner to a base or an Access Point using the Locked Link Mode, other scanners are blocked from being
linked if they are inadvertently placed into the base, or if the Access Point linking bar code is scanned. If you do place
a different scanner into a base, it will charge the scanner, but the scanner will not be linked.

Locked Link Mode
(Single Scanner)

To use a different scanner, you need to unlink the original scanner by scanning the Unlink Scanner bar code. (See
Scanner Modes, page 3-9.)

Open Link Mode - Single Scanner
When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, a scanner is not linked to a base or an Access Point. A link is
established when the scanner is placed into a base, or an Access Point linking bar code is scanned. When in Open
Link Mode, a new link is established when a new scanner is placed in the base, or you scan an Access Point linking bar
code. Each time a scanner is placed into a base or scans an Access Point linking bar code, the scanner becomes
linked to the base or Access point and the old scanner is unlinked.

* Open Link Mode
(Single Scanner)

Unlinking the Scanner
If a base or an Access Point has a scanner linked to it, that scanner must be unlinked before a new scanner can be linked.
Once the previous scanner is unlinked, it will no longer communicate with the base or Access Point. To unlink the scanner from
a base or an Access Point, scan the Unlink Scanner bar code below.

Unlink Scanner

Override Locked Scanner
If you need to replace a broken or lost scanner that is linked to a base or an Access Point, scan the Override Locked
Scanner bar code below with a new scanner and place that scanner in the base, or scan the Access Point linking bar code.
The locked link will be overridden; the broken or lost scanner’s link with the base or Access Point will be removed, and the
new scanner will be linked.

Note: If you are out of range when you scan a bar code, you will receive an error tone even if you do not have the alarm set.
You receive the error tone since the data could not be communicated to the base or Access Point or the host.

Alarm Sound Type
You may change the alarm type for the scanner or a CCB01-010BT base by scanning the appropriate bar code below and
then scanning a digit (0-7) bar code and the Save bar code on the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual.

Note: Scanner Power Time-out Timer only applies to cordless systems. It does not apply to corded scanners.
When there is no activity within a specified time period, the scanner enters low power mode. Scan the appropriate scanner
power time-out bar code to change the time-out duration (in seconds).
Note: Scanning zero (0) is the equivalent of setting no time-out.

3 - 11

If there are no trigger pulls during the timer interval, the scanner goes into power down mode. Whenever the trigger is enabled,
the timer is reset. If the scanner is placed in the charge base cradle and the battery is in the process of being charged, the
scanner will not go into power down mode. Default = 3600 seconds.

Note: When the scanner is in power down mode, pull the trigger to power the unit back up. There will be a set of power up beeps
and a delay of up to a few seconds for the radio to join. The scanner will then be ready to use.

Flexible Power Management
If you are experiencing network performance issues, and suspect the scanner is interfering with other devices, you can turn
down the power output of the scanner. This reduces the range between the scanner and a base or an Access Point as shown
in the following illustration:

Batch Mode
Batch mode is used to store bar code data when a scanner is out of range of its base or Access Point, or when performing
inventory. The data is transmitted to the base or Access Point once the scanner is back in range or when the records are manually transmitted.
Note: Batch mode has limitations when using multiple scanners to one base or Access Point. If a cordless system is being used
in "multiple link mode," where up to 7 scanners are to be connected to one base or Access Point, some accumulated or
batched scans could be lost if scanners are constantly being moved in and out of range.
Automatic Batch Mode stores bar code data when the scanner is out of range of the base or Access Point. The data is automatically transmitted to the base or Access Point once the scanner is back in range. When the scanner’s buffer space is full,
any bar codes scanned generate an error tone. In order to scan bar codes again, the scanner must be moved back into range
of the base or Access Point so data can be transmitted.
Inventory Batch Mode stores bar code data, whether or not you are in range of the base or Access Point. To transmit the
stored data to the base or Access Point, either place the scanner in the base, or scan Transmit Inventory Records (page 3-17).
When the scanner’s buffer space is full, any bar codes scanned generate an error tone. In order to scan bar codes again, the
data must be transmitted to the base or Access Point. Once the data is transmitted, it is cleared in the scanner.
Persistent Batch Mode is the same as Inventory Batch Mode, except that once the data is transmitted to the base or Access
Point, it is retained in the scanner. If you want to transmit more than once, you can do so using this mode. In order to clear the
scanner’s buffer, you must scan Clear All Codes (see page 3-17).
Default = Batch Mode Off.

Batch Mode Beep
When scanning in Inventory Batch Mode (page 3-14), the scanner beeps every time a bar code is scanned. When Batch

scan Batch Mode Beep Off. Default = Batch Mode Beep On.

Batch Mode Beep Off

* Batch Mode Beep On

Batch Mode Storage
When a scanner is storing data during a Batch Mode process, you can select whether the data is stored in Flash memory
or in RAM.
Flash Storage: The scanner writes any untransmitted data to flash memory prior to powering down. The data will still be
there when the scanner powers back up. However, the scanner will power down, even with untransmitted data, if it reaches
a power down timeout or if the battery power is very low.
RAM Storage: The scanner will not power down while it contains data that has not been transmitted to the base or Access
Point, even if it reaches a power down timeout. However, if the scanner runs out of battery power, it will power down and
the data will be lost.
Default = Flash Storage.

Batch Mode Quantity
When in Batch Mode, you may wish to transmit the number of multiple bar codes scanned, rather than a single bar code
multiple times. For example, if you scan three bar codes called XYZ with Batch Mode Quantity Off, when you transmit
your data it will appear as XYZ three times. Using Batch Mode Quantity On and the Quantity Codes (page 3-16), you
could output your data as “XYZ, 00003” instead.
Note: If you wish to format your output, for example, place a CR or tab between the bar code data and the quantity, refer
to Data Formatting beginning on page 6-1.
Default = Batch Mode Quantity Off.

* Batch Mode Quantity Off

Batch Mode Quantity On

Entering Quantities
Quantity Codes (page 3-16) allow you to enter a quantity for the last item scanned, up to 9999 (default = 1). Quantity digits
are shifted from right to left, so if a 5th digit is scanned, the 1st digit scanned is discarded and the 2nd, 3rd and 4th digits
are moved to the left to accommodate the new digit.
For example, if the Quantity 5 bar code is scanned after the quantity has been set to 1234, then the 1 is dropped, the quantity will be 2345.
Example: Add a quantity of 5 for the last item scanned.
1. Scan the item's bar code.
2. Scan the quantity 5 bar code.
Example: Add a quantity of 1,500 for the last item scanned.
1. Scan the item's bar code.
2. Scan the quantity 1 bar code.
3. Scan the quantity 5 bar code.
4. Scan the quantity 0 bar code.
5. Scan the quantity 0 bar code.
Example: Change a quantity of 103 to 10.
To correct an incorrect quantity, scan the quantity 0 bar code to replace the incorrect digits, then scan the correct quantity
bar codes.
1. Scan the quantity 0 bar code to change the quantity to 1030.
2. Scan the quantity 0 bar code to change the quantity to 0300.
3. Scan the quantity 1 bar code to change the quantity to 3001.
4. Scan the quantity 0 bar code to change the quantity to 0010.
Default = 1.

Batch Mode Transmit Delay
Sometimes when accumulated scans are sent to the host system, the transmission of those scans is too fast for the application to process. To program a transmit delay between accumulated scans, scan one of the following delays. Default =
Off.
Note: In most cases, a short (250 ms (milliseconds)) delay is ideal, however, longer delays may be programmed. Contact
Technical Support (page 13-1) for additional information.

Multiple Scanner Operation
Note: Multiple Scanner Operation Mode allows you to link up to 7 scanners to one base or Access Point. You cannot join an
8th scanner until you unlink one of the 7 scanners or take a scanner out of range.
To put the scanner in multiple scanner mode, scan the bar code below. Once you scan this bar code, the scanner is unlinked
from the base or Access Point and must either be placed into the base, or you must scan the Access Point linking bar code in
order to relink.

Multiple Scanner Operation

Scanner Name
You may assign a name to each scanner you are using for identification purposes. For example, you may want to have a unique
identifier for a scanner that is receiving imaging commands sent from the base or Access Point.
The default name is in the format “ScannerName_Model_SN_XXXXXXXXXX” If you have more than one scanner linked to a
base, and they all have the same name, the first scanner linked to the base receives commands. When renaming a series of
scanners with identical names, unlink all except one of the scanners from the base.
Perform the rename operation using either the bar codes on page 3-19, or by sending the serial command :ScannerName:BT_NAMNewName. where ScannerName is the current name of the scanner, and NewName is the new name for the
scanner. If you wish to change the names of additional scanners, link them one at a time and repeat the :ScannerName:BT_NAMNewName. command for each scanner.

To rename scanners with sequential, numeric names, scan the bar codes below. Scan the Reset code after each name change
and wait for the scanner to relink to the base or Access Point before scanning a bar code to rename the next scanner.

You may also scan the Scanner Name bar code below and scan a number for the scanner name. For example, if you wanted to
name the linked scanner “312,” you would scan the bar code below, scan the 3, 1, and 2 bar codes on the Programming Chart
inside the back cover of this manual, then scan Save. Scan the Reset bar code and wait for the scanner to relink to the base.

Scanner Name

Application Work Groups
Your cordless system can have up to 7 scanners linked to one base or Access Point. You can also have up to 7 work groups. If
you want to have all of the scanners’ settings programmed alike, you don’t need to use more than 1 work group. If you want
each scanner to have unique settings (e.g., beeper volume, prefix/suffix, data formatter), then you may program each scanner to
its own unique work group and may program each scanner independently. For example, you might want to have multiple work
groups in a retail/warehouse application where you need to have different data appended to bar codes used in the warehouse
area versus the retail area. You could assign all the scanners in the retail area to one work group and those in the warehouse to
another. Consequently, any desired changes to either the retail or warehouse area would apply to all scanners in that particular
work group. Honeywell’s online configuration tool, EZConfig-Scanning (page 9-2), makes it easy for you to program your system for use with multiple scanners and multiple work groups.
The scanner keeps a copy of the menu settings it is using. Whenever the scanner is connected or reconnected to a base or an
Access Point, the scanner is updated with the latest settings from the base or Access Point for its work group. The scanner also
receives menu setting changes processed by the base or Access Point. If a scanner is removed from a base or an Access Point
and placed into another base or linked to another Access Point, it will be updated with the new base/Access Point settings for
whatever work group to which that the scanner was previously assigned. For example, if the scanner was in work group 1 linked
to the first base, it will be placed in work group 1 in the second base with the associated settings.

Maximum Link Attempts
The Maximum Link Attempts setting controls the number of times the scanner tries to form a connection with a base or an
Access Point. During the connection setup process, the scanner transmits in order to search for and connect to a base or
an Access Point. In order to prevent continuous transmissions that could interfere with other users of the ISM band, the
number of attempts to connect is limited by this setting. After the maximum number of attempts is reached, the scanner will
not attempt to reconnect to a base or an Access Point. Pressing the trigger, scanning an Access Point linking bar code, or
placing the scanner in the cradle resets the attempt count and the scanner will again try to link.

Scan the Maximum Link Attempts bar code, then scan the number of attempts for the setting (from 0-100) from the inside
back cover. Scan Save to save the setting. Default = 0.

Maximum Link Attempts

Note: When Auto Reconnect Mode is On, setting Maximum Link Attempts to zero will cause the scanner to try to link until
the Power Time-Out Timer setting (see page 3-11) expires. When Auto Reconnect Mode is Off, setting Maximum
Link Attempts to zero will cause the scanner to only attempt linking one time after a trigger pull.

Relink Time-Out
Relink Time-Out controls the idle time between relink attempts. An attempt to link a scanner to a base or an Access Point
typically lasts up to 5 seconds. This is the time when the scanner is actually attempting a contact . Relink Time-Out controls the amount of time, in seconds, that elapses between the end of one connection attempt and the start of the next.
Note: The length of time for an attempt depends on the number of scanners connected to a base unit or Access Point. An
extra 7 seconds may be required when a connection is successful.
Scan the Relink Time-Out bar code, then scan the number of seconds for the setting (from 1-100) from the inside back
cover. Scan Save to save the setting. Default = 3 seconds.

Relink Time-Out

Bluetooth/ISM Network Activity Examples
Default values
When the scanner goes out of range, the scanner repeatedly attempts to connect to the base unit or Access Point. Each
attempt consists of approximately 5 seconds of active time followed by 3 seconds of idle time. After one hour, the scanner
powers off and batch mode data is lost.
Maximum Link Attempts set to 15
Other values at default setting
When the scanner goes out of range, 15 attempts are made to link to the base unit or Access Point. Each attempt consists
of approximately 5 seconds of active time followed by 3 seconds of idle time. After 15 cycles (8*15 =120), or about 2 minutes, the scanner stops trying to connect to the base or Access Point, but retains any bar codes that may have been saved
in batch mode. After one hour, the scanner powers off and batch mode data is lost.
Auto Reconnect Mode set to 0
Maximum Link Attempts set to 15
Other values at default setting
When the scanner goes out of range, no action is taken to relink. When the trigger is pulled, 15 attempts are made to link
to the base or Access Point. Each attempt consists of approximately 5 seconds of active time followed by 3 seconds of idle
time. After 15 cycles (8*15 =120), or about 2 minutes, the scanner stops trying to connect to the base or Access Point, but
retains any bar codes that may have been saved in batch mode. After one hour, the scanner powers off and batch mode
data is lost. Refer to Auto Reconnect Mode, page 3-24, to review other events that can start the relink process.
Auto Reconnect Mode set to 1
Maximum Link Attempts set to 0
Relink Time-Out set to 10
Scanner Power Time-Out Timer set to 1800
Note: See Scanner Power Time-Out Timer on page 3-11.
The scanner attempts to connect to the base or Access Point every 15 seconds, measured from one attempt start to the
next attempt start. After one half hour, the scanner powers off.

Host Acknowledgment
Some applications require that the host terminal (or server) validate incoming bar code data (database look-up) and provide
acknowledgment to the scanner whether or not to proceed. In Host ACK Mode, the scanner waits for this acknowledgment after
each scan. Visual and audible acknowledgments provide valuable feedback to the scan operator. The Host ACK functionality is
controlled via a number of pre-defined escape commands that are sent to the scanner to make it behave in different ways.
Note: System performance degrades when using Host ACK at rates lower than 9600 baud.
The following criteria must be met for the Host ACK to work correctly:
•
•
•
•
•

The cordless system must be configured for Host Port RS232 (terminal ID = 000) or USB COM Emulation (terminal ID = 130).
RTS/CTS is defaulted off. You must enable it if the host system requires it.
Host ACK must be set to On (page 3-27).
A comma must be used as a terminator.
The host terminal software must be capable of interpreting the bar code data, make decisions based on the data content, and
send out appropriate escape commands to the scanner.
Escape commands are addressed to the scanner via “Application Work Groups.” Once a command is sent, all scanners in a
group respond to that command. Because of this, it is recommended that each scanner is assigned to its own group in
Host ACK mode.
The commands to which the scanner responds are listed on page 3-27. The [ESC] is a 1B in hex. A typical command string is
y [ESC] x, where “y” is the application work group number, “[ESC] x” is the escape command, and the comma is the terminator,
which is required. (When “y” is not specified, the command is sent to the default Application Work Group 0.)
Example: Commands may be strung together to create custom response sequences. An example of a command string is listed
below.
0[ESC]4,[ESC]5,[ESC]6,
The above example will make a scanner that is in application work group zero beep low, then medium, then high.
Example: A good read beep is required for any item on file, but a razz or error tone is required if the item is not on file. In this
case,
[ESC]7, is sent to the host for an on-file product
[ESC]8,[ESC]8, is sent to the host for a not-on-file product
When a bar code is scanned, the scanner enters a timeout period until either the host ACK sequence is received, or the timeout
expires (in 10 seconds, by default).
Once Host ACK is enabled, the system works as follows when a bar code is scanned:
• The scanner reads the code and sends data to the base or Access Point to transmit to the host system. No audible or visual
indication is emitted until the scanner receives an escape command. The scanner read illumination goes out when there’s a
successful read.
• Scanner operation is suspended until 1) a valid escape string is received from the host system or 2) the scanner times out.
• Once condition 1 or 2 above has been met, the scanner is ready to scan again, and the process repeats.
A time-out occurs if the scanner does not receive a valid escape command within 10 seconds. A time-out is indicated by an
error tone. If a time-out occurs, the operator should check the host system to understand why a response to the scanner was
not received.

Serial Trigger Mode
You can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trigger command (see Trigger Commands on page
10-3). When in serial mode, the scanner scans until a bar code has been read or until the deactivate command is sent. The
scanner can also be set to turn itself off after a specified time has elapsed (see Read Time-Out, which follows).

Read Time-Out
Use this selection to set a time-out (in milliseconds) of the scanner’s trigger when using serial commands to trigger the
scanner. Once the scanner has timed out, you can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger or using a serial trigger command. After scanning the Read Time-Out bar code, set the time-out duration (from 0-300,000 milliseconds) by
scanning digits on the Programming Chart inside the back cover, then scanning Save. Default = 30,000 ms.

Presentation Mode
Presentation Mode uses ambient light to detect bar codes. The LED dims until a bar code is presented to the scanner, then the
LED brightens to read the code. If the light level in the room is not high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly.
Note: If you are using a cordless charge base in Presentation Mode, the battery will not charge unless the power supply is
plugged into the base’s auxiliary power port.
Scan the following bar code to program your scanner for Presentation Mode.

Idle Illumination - Presentation Mode
Scan one of the bar codes below to set the LED illumination for the scanner when it is in an idle state in Presentation Mode.
Default = High.
Note: If you use one of the lower Idle Illumination settings, and there is not enough ambient light, the scanner may have
difficulty detecting when a bar code is presented to it. If the scanner has difficulty “waking up” to read bar codes, you
may need to set the Idle Illumination to a brighter setting.

Presentation Sensitivity
Presentation Sensitivity is a numeric range that increases or decreases the scanner's reaction time to bar code presentation. To set the sensitivity, scan the Sensitivity bar code, then scan the degree of sensitivity (from 0-20) from the inside
back cover, and Save. 0 is the most sensitive setting, and 20 is the least sensitive. Default = 1.

Sensitivity

Presentation Centering
Use Presentation Centering to narrow the scanner’s field of view when it is in the stand to make sure the scanner reads
only those bar codes intended by the user. For instance, if multiple codes are placed closely together, Presentation Centering will insure that only the desired codes are read.
Note: To adjust centering when the scanner is hand-held, see Centering (page 4-14).
If a bar code is not touched by a predefined window, it will not be decoded or output by the scanner. If Presentation Centering is turned on by scanning Presentation Centering On, the scanner only reads codes that pass through the centering
window you specify using the Top of Presentation Centering Window, Bottom of Presentation Centering Window,
Left, and Right of Presentation Centering Window bar codes.

Note: To turn off Mobil Phone Read Mode, scan the Manual Trigger Mode bar code (see page 4-5).

Hands Free Time-Out
The Scan Stand and Presentation Modes are referred to as “hands free” modes. If the scanner’s trigger is pressed when using
a hands free mode, the scanner changes to manual trigger mode. You can set the time the scanner should remain in manual
trigger mode by setting the Hands Free Time-Out. Once the time-out value is reached, (if there have been no further trigger
presses) the scanner reverts to the original hands free mode.

Data Editing

Prefix/Suffix Overview
When a bar code is scanned, additional information is sent to the host computer along with the bar code data. This group of bar
code data and additional, user-defined data is called a “message string.” The selections in this section are used to build the
user-defined data into the message string.
Prefix and Suffix characters are data characters that can be sent before and after scanned data. You can specify if they should
be sent with all symbologies, or only with specific symbologies. The following illustration shows the breakdown of a message
string:

Prefix

Scanned Data

1-11
variable length
alpha numeric &
control characters

Suffix
1-11
alpha numeric &
control characters

Points to Keep In Mind
• It is not necessary to build a message string. The selections in this chapter are only used if you wish to alter the default
settings. Default prefix = None. Default suffix = None.
• A prefix or suffix may be added or cleared from one symbology or all symbologies.
• You can add any prefix or suffix from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), beginning on page A-3, plus Code
I.D. and AIM I.D.
• You can string together several entries for several symbologies at one time.
• Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to appear on the output.
• When setting up for specific symbologies (as opposed to all symbologies), the specific symbology ID value counts as an
added prefix or suffix character.
• The maximum size of a prefix or suffix configuration is 200 characters, which includes header information.

To Add a Prefix or Suffix:
Step 1. Scan the Add Prefix or Add Suffix symbol (page 5-2).
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in the Symbology Charts, beginning on page
A-1) for the symbology to which you want to apply the prefix or suffix. For example, for Code 128, Code ID is “j” and
Hex ID is “6A”.
Step 3. Scan the 2 hex digits from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all
symbologies.
Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), beginning on page A-3, for the prefix
or suffix you wish to enter.
Step 5. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual.
Step 6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 for every prefix or suffix character.
Step 7. To add the Code I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 0.
To add AIM I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 1.
To add a backslash (\), scan 5, C, 5, C.
Note: To add a backslash (\) as in Step 7, you must scan 5C twice – once to create the leading backslash and then to create
the backslash itself.
Step 8. Scan Save to exit and save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.
Repeat Steps 1-6 to add a prefix or suffix for another symbology.

5-1

Example: Add a Tab Suffix to All Symbologies
Step 1. Scan Add Suffix.
Step 2. Scan 9, 9 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual to apply this suffix to all symbologies.
Step 3. Scan 0, 9 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. This corresponds with the hex value
for a horizontal tab, shown in the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), beginning on page A-3.
Step 4. Scan Save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.

To Clear One or All Prefixes or Suffixes
You can clear a single prefix or suffix, or clear all prefixes/suffixes for a symbology. If you have been entering prefixes and
suffixes for single symbologies, you can use Clear One Prefix (Suffix) to delete a specific character from a symbology.
When you Clear All Prefixes (Suffixes), all the prefixes or suffixes for a symbology are deleted.
Step 1. Scan the Clear One Prefix or Clear One Suffix symbol.
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in the Symbology Charts, beginning on page
A-1) for the symbology from which you want to clear the prefix or suffix.
Step 3. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all
symbologies.
Your change is automatically saved.

To Add a Carriage Return Suffix to All Symbologies

Data Formatting

Data Format Editor Introduction
You may use the Data Format Editor to change the scanner’s output. For example, you can use the Data Format Editor to insert
characters at certain points in bar code data as it is scanned. The selections in the following pages are used only if you wish to
alter the output. Default Data Format setting = None.
Normally, when you scan a bar code, it gets outputted automatically; however when you create a format, you must use a “send”
command (see Send Commands on page 6-3) within the format program to output data.
Multiple formats may be programmed into the scanner. They are stacked in the order in which they are entered. However, the
following list presents the order in which formats are applied:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.

The maximum size of a data format configuration is 2000 bytes, which includes header information.
If you have changed data format settings, and wish to clear all formats and return to the factory defaults, scan the Default Data
Format code below.

* Default Data Format

Add a Data Format
Step 1. Scan the Enter Data Format symbol (page 6-2).
Step 2. Select Primary/Alternate Format
Determine if this will be your primary data format, or one of 3 alternate formats. This allows you to save a total of 4
different data formats. To program your primary format, scan 0 using the Programming Chart inside the back cover of
this manual. If you are programming an alternate format, scan 1, 2, or 3, depending on which alternate format you are
programming. (See "Primary/Alternate Data Formats" on page 6-9 for further information.)
Step 3. Terminal Type
Refer to Terminal ID Table (page 6-3) and locate the Terminal ID number for your PC. Scan three numeric bar codes
on the inside back cover to program the scanner for your terminal ID (you must enter 3 digits). For example, scan 0 0
3 for an AT wedge.
Note: The wildcard for all terminal types is 099.
Step 4. Code I.D.
In the Symbology Charts, beginning on page A-1, find the symbology to which you want to apply the data format. Locate
the Hex value for that symbology and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of
this manual.
Note: If you are creating a data format for Batch Mode Quantity, use 35 for the Code I.D.
Step 5. Length
Specify what length (up to 9999 characters) of data will be acceptable for this symbology. Scan the four digit data length

6-1

from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. (Note: 50 characters is entered as 0050. 9999 is a
universal number, indicating all lengths.)
Step 6. Editor Commands
Refer to Data Format Editor Commands (page 6-3). Scan the symbols that represent the command you want to enter.
Step 7. Scan Save to save your data format, or Discard to exit without saving your changes.

Enter Data Format

Save

Discard

Other Programming Selections
Clear One Data Format
This deletes one data format for one symbology. If you are clearing the primary format, scan 0 from the Programming
Chart inside the back cover of this manual. If you are clearing an alternate format, scan 1, 2, or 3, depending on the
format you are clearing. Scan the Terminal Type and Code I.D. (see Symbology Charts on page A-1), and the bar code
data length for the specific data format that you want to delete. All other formats remain unaffected.
Clear all Data Formats
This clears all data formats.
Save to exit and save your data format changes.
Discard to exit without saving any data format changes.

you want to decode only a particular symbology, scan All Symbologies Off followed by the On symbol for that particular symbology.

All Symbologies On

All Symbologies Off

Note: When All Symbologies On is scanned, 2D Postal Codes are not enabled. 2D Postal Codes must be enabled separately.

Message Length Description
You are able to set the valid reading length of some of the bar code symbologies. If the data length of the scanned bar code
doesn’t match the valid reading length, the scanner will issue an error tone. You may wish to set the same value for minimum
and maximum length to force the scanner to read fixed length bar code data. This helps reduce the chances of a misread.
EXAMPLE:

Decode only those bar codes with a count of 9-20 characters.
Min. length = 09Max. length = 20

7-1

EXAMPLE:

Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.
Min. length = 15Max. length = 15
For a value other than the minimum and maximum message length defaults, scan the bar codes included in the explanation of
the symbology, then scan the digit value of the message length and Save bar codes on the Programming Chart inside the back
cover of this manual. The minimum and maximum lengths and the defaults are included with the respective symbologies.

Aztec Append
This function allows the scanner to append the data from several Aztec bar codes together before transmitting them to the
host computer. When the scanner encounters an Aztec bar code with the append trigger character(s), it buffers the number
of Aztec bar codes determined by information encoded in those bar codes. Once the proper number of codes is reached,
the data is output in the order specified in the bar codes. Default = On.

EZConfig-Scanning Introduction
EZConfig-Scanning provides a wide range of PC-based programming functions that can be performed on a scanner connected
to your PC's COM port. EZConfig-Scanning allows you to download upgrades to the scanner's firmware, change programmed
parameters, and create and print programming bar codes. Using EZConfig-Scanning, you can even save/open the programming parameters for a scanner. This saved file can be e-mailed or, if required, you can create a single bar code that contains all
the customized programming parameters and mail or fax that bar code to any location. Users in other locations can scan the
bar code to load in the customized programming.
To communicate with a scanner, EZConfig-Scanning requires that the PC have at least one available serial communication port,
or a serial port emulation using a physical USB port. If you are using the serial port and RS232 cable, an external power supply
is required. When using a USB serial port emulation, only a USB cable is required.

EZConfig-Scanning Operations
The EZConfig-Scanning software performs the following operations:

Scan Data
Scan Data allows you to scan bar codes and display the bar code data in a window. Scan Data lets you send serial
commands to the scanner and receive scanner response that can be seen in the Scan Data window. The data displayed in the Scan Data window can either be saved in a file or printed.

Configure
Configure displays the programming and configuration data of the scanner. The scanner's programming and configuration data is grouped into different categories. Each category is displayed as a tree item under the "Configure" tree
node in the application explorer. When one of these tree nodes is clicked, the right-hand side is loaded with the
parameters' form belonging to that particular category. The "Configure" tree option has all the programming and configuration parameters specified for a scanner. You can set or modify these parameters as required. You can later write
the modified settings to the scanner, or save them to a dcf file.

Installing EZConfig-Scanning from the Web
Note: EZConfig-Scanning requires .NET software. If .NET is not installed on your PC, you will be prompted to install it
during the EZConfig-Scanning installation.
1. Access the Honeywell web site at www.honeywellaidc.com.
2. Click on the Resources tab. Select Software.
3. Click on the dropdown for Select Product Number. Click on your product number.
4. Click on the listing for EZConfig-Scanning.

9-2

5. When prompted, select Save File, and save the files to the c:\windows\temp directory.
6. Once you have finished downloading the file, exit the web site.
7. Using Explorer, go to the c:\windows\temp file.
8. Double click on the Setup.exe file. Follow the screen prompts to install the EZConfig-Scanning program.
9. If you’ve selected the defaults during installation, you can click on Start Menu-All Programs-Honeywell-EZConfigScanning.

Resetting the Factory Defaults

!

This selection erases all your settings and resets the scanner to the original factory defaults. It also disables all plugins.

If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your scanner, or you’ve changed some options and want to restore the scanner to factory default settings, first scan the Remove Custom Defaults bar code, then scan Activate Defaults. This resets the
scanner to the factory default settings.

Remove Custom Defaults

Activate Defaults

Note: If using a cordless system, scanning the Activate Defaults bar code also causes both the scanner and the base or Access
Point to perform a reset and become unlinked. The scanner must be placed in its base to re-establish the link before any
setup codes are entered. If using an Access Point, the linking bar code must be scanned. See Cordless System
Operation beginning on page 3-1 for additional information.
The Menu Commands, beginning on page 10-3 list the factory default settings for each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the programming pages).

Serial Programming Commands

The serial programming commands can be used in place of the programming bar codes. Both the serial commands and the
programming bar codes will program the scanner. For complete descriptions and examples of each serial programming command, refer to the corresponding programming bar code in this manual.
The device must be set to an RS232 interface (see page 2-1). The following commands can be sent via a PC COM port using
terminal emulation software.

Conventions
The following conventions are used for menu and query command descriptions:
parameterA label representing the actual value you should send as part of a command.
[option] An optional part of a command.
{Data} Alternatives in a command.
bold
Names of menus, menu commands, buttons, dialog boxes, and windows that appear on the screen.

Menu Command Syntax
Menu commands have the following syntax (spaces have been used for clarity only):
Prefix [:Name:] Tag SubTag {Data} [, SubTag {Data}] [; Tag SubTag {Data}] […] Storage
Prefix Three ASCII characters: SYN M CR (ASCII 22,77,13).
:Name: This command is only used with cordless devices. It is used to specify whether you’re communicating with the base or
the scanner. To send information to the scanner (with the base connected to host), use :Voyager_1452g: The default
factory setting for a Voyager 1452g scanner is Voyager_1452 scanner. This setting is changed by using the BT_NAM
command, which accepts alphanumeric values. If the name is not known, a wildcard (*) can be used :*:.
Note: Since the base stores all work group settings and transfers to them to scanner once they are linked, changes are typically
done to the base and not to the scanner.
Tag

A 3 character case-insensitive field that identifies the desired menu command group. For example, all RS232
configuration settings are identified with a Tag of 232.
SubTag A 3 character case-insensitive field that identifies the desired menu command within the tag group. For example, the
SubTag for the RS232 baud rate is BAD.
Data
The new value for a menu setting, identified by the Tag and SubTag.
Storage A single character that specifies the storage table to which the command is applied. An exclamation point (!) performs
the command’s operation on the device’s volatile menu configuration table. A period (.) performs the command’s
operation on the device’s non-volatile menu configuration table. Use the non-volatile table only for semi-permanent
changes you want saved through a power cycle.

Query Commands
Several special characters can be used to query the device about its settings.

^
?
*

What is the default value for the setting(s).
What is the device’s current value for the setting(s).
What is the range of possible values for the setting(s). (The device’s response uses a dash (-) to indicate a
continuous range of values. A pipe (|) separates items in a list of non-continuous values.)

:Name: Field Usage (Optional)
This command returns the query information from the scanner.

Tag Field Usage
When a query is used in place of a Tag field, the query applies to the entire set of commands available for the particular
storage table indicated by the Storage field of the command. In this case, the SubTag and Data fields should not be used
because they are ignored by the device.

10 - 1

SubTag Field Usage
When a query is used in place of a SubTag field, the query applies only to the subset of commands available that match the
Tag field. In this case, the Data field should not be used because it is ignored by the device.

Data Field Usage
When a query is used in place of the Data field, the query applies only to the specific command identified by the Tag and
SubTag fields.

Concatenation of Multiple Commands
Multiple commands can be issued within one Prefix/Storage sequence. Only the Tag, SubTag, and Data fields must be
repeated for each command in the sequence. If additional commands are to be applied to the same Tag, then the new
command sequence is separated with a comma (,) and only the SubTag and Data fields of the additional command are
issued. If the additional command requires a different Tag field, the command is separated from previous commands by a
semicolon (;).

Responses
The device responds to serial commands with one of three responses:
ACK Indicates a good command which has been processed.
ENQ Indicates an invalid Tag or SubTag command.
NAK Indicates the command was good, but the Data field entry was out of the allowable range for this Tag and SubTag
combination, e.g., an entry for a minimum message length of 100 when the field will only accept 2 characters.
When responding, the device echoes back the command sequence with the status character inserted directly before each
of the punctuation marks (the period, exclamation point, comma, or semicolon) in the command.

Examples of Query Commands
In the following examples, a bracketed notation [ ] depicts a non-displayable response.
Example: What is the range of possible values for Codabar Coding Enable?
Enter:

cbrena*.

Response: CBRENA0-1[ACK]
This response indicates that Codabar Coding Enable (CBRENA) has a range of values from 0 to 1 (off and on).
Example: What is the default value for Codabar Coding Enable?
Enter:

cbrena^.

Response: CBRENA1[ACK]
This response indicates that the default setting for Codabar Coding Enable (CBRENA) is 1, or on.
Example: What is the device’s current setting for Codabar Coding Enable?
Enter:

cbrena?.

Response: CBRENA1[ACK]
This response indicates that the device’s Codabar Coding Enable (CBRENA) is set to 1, or on.
Example: What are the device’s settings for all Codabar selections?
Enter:

cbr?.

Response: CBRENA1[ACK],
SSX0[ACK],
CK20[ACK],
CCT1[ACK],
MIN2[ACK],
MAX60[ACK],
DFT[ACK].

10 - 2

This response indicates that the device’s Codabar Coding Enable (CBRENA) is set to 1, or on;
the Start/Stop Character (SSX) is set to 0, or Don’t Transmit;
the Check Character (CK2) is set to 0, or Not Required;
concatenation (CCT) is set to 1, or Enabled;
the Minimum Message Length (MIN) is set to 2 characters;
the Maximum Message Length (MAX) is set to 60 characters;
and the Default setting (DFT) has no value.

Trigger Commands
You can activate and deactivate the scanner with serial trigger commands. First, the scanner must be put in Manual Trigger
Mode by scanning a Manual Trigger Mode bar code (page 4-5), or by sending a serial menu command for triggering (page 4-5).
Once the scanner is in serial trigger mode, the trigger is activated and deactivated by sending the following commands:
Activate:

SYN T CR

Deactivate: SYN U CR
The scanner scans until a bar code has been read, until the deactivate command is sent, or until the serial time-out has been
reached (see "Read Time-Out" on page 4-7 for a description, and the serial command on page 10-11).

Resetting the Custom Defaults
If you want the custom default settings restored to your scanner, scan the Activate Custom Defaults bar code below. This
resets the scanner to the custom default settings. If there are no custom defaults, it will reset the scanner to the factory default
settings. Any settings that have not been specified through the custom defaults will be defaulted to the factory default settings.

Activate Custom Defaults

Note: If using a cordless system, scanning this bar code also causes both the scanner and the base or Access Point to perform
a reset and become unlinked. The scanner must be placed in its base to re-establish the link. If using an Access Point,
the linking bar code must be scanned. See Cordless System Operation beginning on page 3-1 for additional information.
The charts on the following pages list the factory default settings for each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the
programming pages).

Maintenance

Repairs
Repairs and/or upgrades are not to be performed on this product. These services are to be performed only by an authorized
service center (see Customer Support on page 13-1).

Maintenance
Your device provides reliable and efficient operation with a minimum of care. Although specific maintenance is not required, the
following periodic checks ensure dependable operation:

Cleaning the Device
Reading performance may degrade if the scanner’s window is not clean. If the window is visibly dirty, or if the scanner isn’t
operating well, clean the window with a soft cloth or lens tissue dampened with water (or a mild detergent- water solution).
If a detergent solution is used, rinse with a clean lens tissue dampened with water only.
The scanner and base’s housing may also be cleaned the same way.

!

Caution:

Do not submerge the scanner in water. The scanner’s
housing is not watertight.
Do not use abrasive wipes or tissues on the scanner’s
window – abrasive wipes may scratch the window. Never
use solvents (e.g., alcohol or acetone) on the housing or
window – solvents may damage the finish or the window.

Inspecting Cords and Connectors
Inspect the interface cable and connector for wear or other signs of damage. A badly worn cable or damaged connector
may interfere with scanner operation. Contact your distributor for information about cable replacement. Cable replacement
instructions are on page 12-1.

Replacing Cables in Corded Scanners
The standard interface cable is attached to the scanner with an 10-pin modular connector. When properly seated, the connector is held in the scanner’s handle by a flexible retention tab. The interface cable is designed to be field replaceable.
• Order replacement cables from Honeywell or from an authorized distributor.
• When ordering a replacement cable, specify the cable part number of the original interface cable.

12 - 1

Replacing a Corded Scanner Interface Cable
1. Turn the power to the host system OFF.
2. Disconnect the scanner’s cable from the terminal or computer.
3. Locate the small hole on the back of the scanner’s handle. This is the cable release.
4. Straighten one end of a paper clip.
5. Insert the end of the paper clip into the small hole and press in. This depresses the retention
tab, releasing the connector. Pull the connector out while maintaining pressure on the paper
clip, then remove the paper clip.
6. Replace with the new cable.
Insert the connector into the opening and press firmly. The connector is keyed to go in only
one way, and will click into place.

Changing a Cordless Scanner Battery
1. Use the hinged wire or a flat head screwdriver to remove the screw from the
end cap.
2. Remove the end cap and remove the battery from the handle.
3. Insert replacement battery.
4. Replace end cap and screw it back on.

Troubleshooting a Corded Scanner
The scanner automatically performs self-tests whenever you turn it on. If your
scanner is not functioning properly, review the following Troubleshooting Guide to
try to isolate the problem.

End Cap

Is the power on? Is the aimer on?
If the aimer isn’t illuminated, check that:
• The cable is connected properly.
• The host system power is on (if external power isn’t used).
• The trigger works.
Is the scanner having trouble reading your symbols?
If the scanner isn’t reading symbols well, check that the scanner window is clean and that the symbols:
• Aren’t smeared, rough, scratched, or exhibiting voids.
• Aren’t coated with frost or water droplets on the surface.
• Are enabled in the scanner or in the decoder to which the scanner connects.
Is the bar code displayed but not entered?
The bar code is displayed on the host device correctly, but you still have to press a key to enter it (the Enter/Return key or
the Tab key, for example).
• You need to program a suffix. Programming a suffix enables the scanner to output the bar code data plus the key you
need (such as “CR”) to enter the data into your application. Refer to Prefix/Suffix Overview beginning on page 5-1 for
further information.
Does the scanner read the bar code incorrectly?
If the scanner reads a bar code, but the data is not displayed correctly on the host screen:
• The scanner may not be programmed for the appropriate terminal interface.
For example, you scan “12345” and the host displays “@es%.”
Reprogram the scanner with the correct Plug and Play bar code. See Programming the Interface beginning on page 2-1.
• The scanner may not be programmed to output your bar code data properly.
For example, you scan “12345” and the host displays “A12345B.”
Reprogram the scanner with the proper symbology selections. See Chapter 7.
The scanner won’t read your bar code at all.
1. Scan the sample bar codes in the back of this manual. If the scanner reads the sample bar codes, check that your bar
code is readable.
Verify that your bar code symbology is enabled (see Chapter 7).
If the scanner still can’t read the sample bar codes, scan All Symbologies (page 7-1).
If you aren’t sure what programming options have been set in the scanner, or if you want the factory default settings
restored, refer to Resetting the Custom Defaults on page 10-3.

If your base is not functioning properly, review the following troubleshooting guidelines to try to isolate the problem.
Is the red LED on?
If the red LED isn’t illuminated, check that:
• The power cable is connected properly and there is power at the power source.
• The host system power is on (if external power isn’t used).
Is the green LED on?
If the green LED isn’t illuminated, check that:
•
•
•
•

The scanner is correctly placed in the base.
There is external power or 12 volt host power.
Charge mode is turned on. (See "Beeper and LED Sequences and Meaning" on page 3-5)
The battery is not bad or deeply discharged. In some cases, the scanner’s battery may trickle charge to bring it into an
acceptable level and then transition to a normal charge cycle.

Troubleshooting a Cordless Scanner
Note: Make sure that your scanner’s battery is charged.
Visit the Services and Support section of our website (www.honeywellaidc.com) to check for the latest software for
both the scanner and the base or Access Point.
Is the scanner having trouble reading your symbols?
If the scanner isn’t reading symbols well, check that the symbols:
• Aren’t smeared, rough, scratched, or exhibiting voids.
• Aren’t coated with frost or water droplets on the surface.
• Are enabled in the base or Access Point to which the scanner connects.
Is the bar code displayed but not entered into the application?
The bar code is displayed on the host device correctly, but you still have to press a key to enter it (the Enter/Return key or
the Tab key, for example).
• You need to program a suffix. Programming a suffix enables the scanner to output the bar code data plus the key you
need (such as “CR”) to enter the data into your application. Refer to Prefix/Suffix Overview on page 5-1 for further
information.
Does the scanner read the bar code incorrectly?
If the scanner reads a bar code, but the data is not displayed correctly on the host screen:
• The base or Access Point may not be programmed for the appropriate terminal interface. For example, you scan “12345”
and the host displays “@es%.”
Reprogram the base/Access Point with the correct Plug and Play bar code. See Programming the Interface beginning on
page 2-1.
• The bas or Access Pointe may not be programmed to output your bar code data properly. For example, you scan “12345”
and the host displays “A12345B.”
Reprogram the base/Access Point with the proper symbology selections. See Chapter 7.
The scanner won’t read your bar code at all.
• Scan the sample bar codes in the back of this manual. If the scanner reads the sample bar codes, check that your bar
code is readable.

ISO 2022/ISO 646 Character Replacements
Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If the data received does not display with the proper characters, it may be because the bar code being scanned was created using a code page that is different from the one the host program is expecting. If this is the case, select the code page with which the bar codes were created. The data characters should
then appear properly.
