Reading Techniques

The scanner has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam that corre-

sponds 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.

The aiming beam 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 ele-

ments (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 dis-

tance from the target, pull the trigger, and center the aiming beam on the sym-

bol. 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 send-

ing 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 Technical Assistance on page 14-1)

for further information.

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 each

menu command or sequence you want saved. If your command requires scan-

ning numeric codes from the back cover, then a Save code, that entire

sequence will be saved to your custom defaults. Scan the Set Custom

Defaults code again before the next command you want 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.

Note: If using a cordless system, 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 settiing will be updated.

Resetting the Custom Defaults

If you want the custom default settings restored to your scanner, scan the Acti-

vate 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

Save Custom Defaults

Set Custom Defaults

1 - 10

there are no custom defaults, it will reset the scanner to the factory default set-

tings. Any settings that have not been specified through the custom defaults

will be defaulted to the factory default settings.

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.

Resetting the Factory Defaults

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 set-

tings, first scan the Remove Custom Defaults bar code, then scan Activate

Defaults. This resets the scanner to the factory default settings.

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 11-5 list the factory default settings

for each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the programming

pages).

This selection erases all your settings and resets the scanner to the

original factory defaults. It also disables all plugins

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 Key-

board Style settings.

Default = Regular.

Regular is used when you normally have the Caps Lock key off.

Caps Lock

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

Shift Lock

is used when you normally have the Shift Lock key on (not common

to U.S. keyboards).

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 sta-

tus (AT keyboards).

Autocaps via NumLock

bar code should be scanned in countries (e.g., Ger-

many, 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 Num-

Lock key to retrieve the current state of the Caps Lock.

Emulate External Keyboard should be scanned if you do not have an external

keyboard (IBM AT or equivalent).

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 lower-

case. 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 2-17). Otherwise, your output may not be as

expected.

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-4. Only codes 00 through 1F are converted (the

first column of the chart).

Note: Control + ASCII Mode overrides this mode.

Default = 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 key-

board 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 9-1 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 transmit any prefix or

suffix information.

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 applica-

tion 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 or serial 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 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.

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 2-25) 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.

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 millisec-

onds) for a timeout by scanning the bar code below, then setting the time-

out (from 1-5100 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the inside back

cover, then scanning Save.

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

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

Default = 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 2-22, and RS232 Timeout on page 2-25 for

further information.

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 cord-

less 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 3-5, 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.

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 13-6 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.

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.

Communication Between the Cordless System

and the Host

The cordless scanner provides immediate feedback in the form of a “good read”

indication (a green LED on the scanner and an audible beep) after a bar code is

scanned correctly and the base or Access Point has acknowledged receiving

the data. This is possible since the cordless system provides two-way commu-

nication 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

Page

Button

3 - 3

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.

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 cord-

less system highly responsive to a wide variety of data collection applications

and resistant to noisy RF environments. Bluetooth Class 2 power level 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 3-15, for information about controlling this range.

System Conditions

The components of the cordless system interact in specific ways as you associ-

ate 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 sys-

tems. The following information explains the cordless system operating condi-

tions.

Linking Process

Once a scanner is placed into a cordless charge base, the scanner’s bat-

tery charge status is checked, and software automatically detects the scan-

ner and links it to the base depending on the selected link mode.

Refer to Linking the Scanner to an Access Point, page 3-2, 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 3-13.

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 3-13 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-

16).

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 scan-

ners 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 3-9

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 recom-

mended 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 inte-

grated 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.

3 - 5

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 3-7, for an interpretation of the Charge Status indicators.

Refer to Charge Only Mode (page 3-11) 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 14-1 for additional

information.

Caution:

Use only Honeywell Li-ion battery packs, part number

100000495, rated 3.7 Vdc, 7.4Whr, in this device. Use of any

non-Honeywell battery may result in damage not covered by

the warranty.

Safety Precautions for Lithium Batteries

• Do not place batteries in fire or heat the batteries.

• Do not store batteries near fire or other high temperature locations.

• Do not store or carry batteries together with metal objects.

• Do not expose batteries to water or allow the batteries to get wet.

• Do not connect (short) the positive and negative terminals, of the

batteries, to each other with any metal object.

• Do not pierce, strike or step on batteries or subject batteries to strong

impacts or shocks.

• Do not disassemble or modify batteries.

3 - 6

Caution:

Danger of explosion if batteries are incorrectly replaced.

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.

Proper Disposal of the Battery

When the battery has reached the end of its useful life,

the battery should be disposed of by a qualified recycler

or hazardous materials handler. Do not incinerate the

battery or dispose of the battery with general waste

materials. You may send the scanner’s battery to us.

(postage paid). The shipper is responsible for complying

with all federal, state, and local laws and regulations

related to the packing, labeling, manifesting, and ship-

ping of spent batteries. Contact the Product Service Department (page 14-

1) for recycling or disposal information. Since you may find that your cost

of returning the batteries significant, it may be more cost effective to locate

a local recycle/disposal company.

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. The unit’s audible indicators

have meaning 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 illumination and beeps

for the scanner.

The base can be configured to beep at a particular pitch when an error

occurs, such as transmission problems to a host system. The beeper pitch

codes modify the pitch (frequency) of the error tone the base emits when

there is an error.

Default = Low.

Number of Beeps - Base Error

Note: This feature does not apply to the Access Point.

The number of beeps and LED flashes emitted by the base for an error

condition can be programmed from 1 - 9. For example, if you program this

option to have five error beeps, there will be five error beeps and five LED

flashes in response to an error. To change the number of error beeps, scan

the bar code below and then scan a digit (1-9) bar code and the Save bar

code on the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual.

Default = 1.

Scanner Modes

The Xenon is capable of working in single scanner mode, multiple scanner

mode, or with Bluetooth devices other than the CCB01-010BT 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 scan-

ner 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 3-13.

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.

the linking bar code on the base to link the scanner, then scan Charge and

Link Mode.

Default = Charge and Link Mode.

Linked Modes

Locked Link Mode and Open Link Mode are the link modes that accommo-

date 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

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.

To use a different scanner, you need to unlink the original scanner by

scanning the Unlink Scanner bar code. (See Scanner Modes, page

3-11.)

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 the linked to the

base or Access point and the old scanner is unlinked.

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.

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.

Out-of-Range Alarm

If your scanner is out range of the base, an alarm sounds from both your base

and scanner. If your scanner is out range of an Access Point, an alarm sounds

from just the scanner. The alarm stops when the scanner is moved closer to the

base or Access Point, when the base or Access Point connects to another scan-

ner, or when the alarm duration expires. To activate the alarm options for the

scanner or the base and to set the alarm duration, scan the appropriate bar

Save.

Default = 0 sec (no alarm).

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 base by scanning the

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 scan-

ner. This reduces the range between the scanner and a base or an Access

Point as shown in the following illustration:

Scan one of the bar codes below to set the scanner’s power output to Full

Power (100%) [2.5mW, 4dBm], Medium Power (35%) [.875mW, 0dBm],

Medium Low Power (5%) [.125mW, -9dBm], or Low Power (1%, .025mW,

-16dBm).

Default = Full Power.

For the new power setting to take effect, the scanner and the base or Access

Point must be reset. See Reset Scanner and Base/Access Point (page 3-

Once the power level is set, you must scan the Reset Base bar code and

wait for the scanner to unlink and relink to a base or an Access Point.

Once that is done, scan the Reset Scanner bar code and wait for the base

or Access Point to unlink and relink to the scanner.

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 3-21). 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.

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 mem-

ory prior to powering down. The data will still be there when the scanner

powers back up. However, the scanner will power down, even with untrans-

mitted data, if it reaches a power down timeout or if the battery power is

very low.

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 3-19), you could

output your data as “XYZ, 00003” instead.

Default = Batch Mode Quantity

Off.

Entering Quantities

Quantity Codes (page 3-19) 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.

Transmit Records to Host

If you are operating in Inventory Batch Mode (see Inventory Batch Mode on

page 3-17), you must scan the following bar code to transmit all the stored

data to the host system.

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 fol-

lowing 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 14-3) for additional information.

Multiple Scanner Operation

Note: Multiple Scanner Operation Mode allows you to link up to 7 scanners to

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 link-

ing bar code in order to relink.

Scanner Name

You may assign a name to each scanner you are using for identification pur-

poses. 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 for a Xenon is “Xenon.” If you have more than one scanner

linked to a base, and they all have the same default name, the first scanner

linked to the base receives commands. When renaming a series of scanners

with identical default names, unlink all except one of the scanners from the

base.

Perform the rename operation using either the bar codes on page 3-23, or by

sending the serial command :Xenon:BT_NAM

name

. where

name

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 :Xenon:BT_NAM

name

command for

each 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

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 exam-

ple, you might want to have multiple work groups in a retail/warehouse applica-

tion 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. Conse-

quently, 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 (page 10-2), 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 scan-

ner 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.

To see what the factory default settings are, refer to the table of Menu

Commands, beginning on page 11-5. The standard product default settings for

each of the commands are indicated by an asterisk (*).

Note: 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 the base, or the Access Point linking bar code must be

scanned to re-establish the link. Refer to Scanner Modes, page 3-11 for

additional information.

If your scanner is in multiple scanner mode, you will hear up to 30

seconds of beeping while all scanners are relinked to the base or Access

Point and the settings are changed.

Resetting the Custom Defaults:

All Application Work Groups

If you want the custom default settings restored to all of the work groups, scan

the Custom Product Default Settings bar code below. (If there are no custom

defaults, it will reset the work groups to the factory defaults.) See Setting

Custom Defaults on page 1-9 for further information about custom defaults.

Note: 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, or the Access Point linking bar code must be

scanned to re-establish the link. Refer to Scanner Modes, page 3-11 for

Using the Scanner with Bluetooth Devices

The scanner can be used either with the CCB01-010BT charge base, an

Access Point, or with other Bluetooth devices. Those devices include personal

computers, laptops, PDAs, and Honeywell mobility systems devices.

PCs/Laptops

Scanning the Non-Base BT Connection bar code below allows the scan-

ner to be used with other Bluetooth devices (e.g., PC/laptop). After you

scan the bar code below, follow the instructions supplied with your Blue-

tooth device to locate the scanner and connect to it. If you go out of range

Custom Default Settings:

All Work Groups

with your scanner, the scanner will not reconnect to the Bluetooth device

when it is back in range. If you want to relink to the charge base or Access

Point, refer to Override Locked Scanner, page 3-13.

Note: The multiple work groups option is not available when you are using

the scanner with Bluetooth devices other than the charge base or

Access Point.

PDAs/Mobility Systems Devices

You may also use the scanner with a PDA or a Honeywell Mobility Systems

device. Scan the bar code below and follow the instructions supplied with

your Bluetooth device to locate the scanner, and connect with it.

Changing the Scanner’s Bluetooth PIN Code

Some devices require a PIN code as part of the Bluetooth security features.

Your scanner’s default PIN is 1234, which you may need to enter the first

time you connect to your PDA or PC. The PIN code must be between 1

and 16 characters. To change the PIN, scan the bar code below and then

scan the appropriate numeric bar codes from the Programming Chart

inside the back cover of this manual. Scan Save to save your selection.

Minimizing Bluetooth/ISM Band Network Activity

The settings described below can help you customize the relinking behavior of

the cordless area-imaging system to obtain the best compromise between con-

venience and low interference.

Auto Reconnect Mode

Auto Reconnect controls whether or not the scanner automatically begins

the relink process when a loss of connection is detected. When the Auto

Reconnect On bar code is scanned, the scanner begins the relink process

immediately, without user intervention.

Default = Auto Reconnect On.

Note: If you are connecting to a Bluetooth Interface Module, set Auto

Reconnect to Off.

Maximum Link Attempts

The Maximum Link Attempts setting controls the number of times the scan-

ner 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 trans-

missions 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.

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 4-7) 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 sec-

onds. 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.

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 approx-

imately 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 sec-

onds 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 fol-

lowed 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 3-28, to review other events that can start the

relink process.

The scanner attempts to connect to the base or Access Point every 15 sec-

onds, measured from one attempt start to the next attempt start. After one

half hour, the scanner powers off.

Host Command Acknowledgment

Some applications require that the host terminal (or server) approve or reject

incoming bar code data and notify the operator of these actions. These applica-

tions require that the host maintain control over the response indicators emitted

from the scanner. Turning on Host ACK configures the scanner to respond to

commands from the host system.

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 3-32).

• 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 com-

mand. 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 3-32. 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.

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 in application work group zero beep

low, then medium, then high.

Once Host ACK is enabled, the system works as follows:

• The scanner reads a 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.

3 - 32

• Scanner operation is suspended until 1) a valid escape string is received from

the host system (via the base or Access Point) 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.

Number of Beeps – Good Read

The number of beeps of a good read can be programmed from 1 - 9. The

same number of beeps will be applied to the beeper and LED in response

to a good read. For example, if you program this option to have five beeps,

there will be five beeps and five LED flashes in response to a good read.

The beeps and LED flashes are in sync with one another. To change the

number of beeps, scan the bar code below and then scan a digit (1-9) bar

code and the Save bar code on the Programming Chart inside the back

cover of this manual.

Default = 1.

code below, then set the delay (from 0-30,000 milliseconds) by scanning

digits from the inside back cover, then scanning Save.

Manual Trigger Modes

When in manual trigger mode, the scanner scans until a bar code is read, or

until the trigger is released. Two modes are available, Normal and Enhanced.

Normal mode offers good scan speed and the longest working ranges (depth of

field). Enhanced mode will give you the highest possible scan speed but

slightly less range than Normal mode. Enhanced mode is best used when you

require a very fast scan speed and don’t require a long working range.

Default

= Manual Trigger-Normal.

Serial Trigger Mode

You can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trig-

ger command (see Trigger Commands on page 11-4). When in serial mode,

the scanner scans until a bar code has been read or until the deactivate com-

mand 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.

Scanner Power Time-Out Timer

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.

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.

Presentation Mode

Presentation Mode uses ambient light to detect bar codes. The LEDs remain

off until a bar code is presented to the scanner, then the LEDs turn on automat-

ically to read the code. If the light level in the room is not high enough, Presen-

tation 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.

Presentation LED Behavior after Decode

When a scanner is in presentation mode, the LEDs dim 30 seconds after a

bar code is decoded. If you wish to dim the LEDs immediately after a bar

code is decoded, scan the LEDs Off bar code, below.

Default = LEDs On.

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.

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 4-17).

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 scan-

ning 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.

In the example below, the white box is the centering window. The centering

window has been set to 20% left, 30% right, 8% top, and 25% bottom.

Since Bar Code 1 passes through the centering window, it will be read. Bar

Code 2 does not pass through the centering window, so it will not be read.

Note: A bar code needs only to be touched by the centering window in

order to be read. It does not need to pass completely through the

centering window.

Centering = 40% for Top and Left, 60% for Bottom and Right.

In-Stand Sensor Mode

This feature senses when the scanner is removed from the stand and tells it to

begin manual triggering. When Sensor On is enabled, the scanner defaults to

Streaming Presentation Mode when it is in the stand, and to Manual Trigger

Mode when it is removed from the stand.

Default = Sensor On.

Note: If you are taking images (see Imaging Commands beginning on page 8-

mode (Normal, Enhanced, or Mobile Phone) you wish to use for out-of-stand

scanning. To do this, you must first scan the preferred Streaming Presentation

mode (see below), then scan the Manual Trigger mode (see page 4-6 and page

4-13) you want to use.

CodeGate®

When CodeGate is On, the trigger is used to allow decoded data to be transmit-

ted to the host system. The scanner remains on, scanning and decoding bar

codes, but the bar code data is not transmitted until the trigger is pressed.

When CodeGate is Off, bar code data is transmitted when it is decoded.

Default = CodeGate Off Out-of-Stand.

Streaming Presentation

™

Mode

When in Streaming Presentation mode, the scanner’s aimer goes out after a

short time, but the scan illumination remains on all the time to continuously

search for bar codes. Two modes are available, Normal and Enhanced. Nor-

mal mode offers good scan speed and the longest working ranges (depth of

field). Enhanced mode will give you the highest possible scan speed but

slightly less range than Normal mode. Enhanced mode is best used when you

require a very fast scan speed and don’t require a long working range.

When using Preferred Symbology (page 4-19), a lower priority symbol must be

centered on the aiming pattern to be read in Streaming Presentation Mode.

Note: If you are using a cordless charge base, it must have an external power

supply plugged into the aux port for Streaming Presentation to work

properly.

Streaming Presentation In-Stand Programming

This option is available when using In-Stand Sensor Mode, page 4-11. You

may program a specific Streaming Presentation Mode for in-stand scan-

ning, and a Manual Trigger mode for out-of-stand scanning. To do this, you

must first scan the preferred Streaming Presentation mode (Normal,

Enhanced, or Mobile Phone), then scan the Manual Trigger mode (Normal,

Enhanced, or Mobile Phone) you want to use.

Mobile Phone Read Mode

When this mode is selected, your scanner is optimized to read bar codes from

mobile phone or other LED displays. However, the speed of scanning printed

bar codes may be slightly lower when this mode is enabled. You can enable

Mobile Phone Reading for either a hand held device, or for a hands-free (pre-

sentation) application.

Note: To turn off Mobil Phone Read Mode, scan a Manual or Serial Trigger

Mode bar code (see page 4-6).

Image Snap and Ship

Image Snap and Ship tells the scanner to take a picture (rather than read a bar

code) when the trigger is pressed. Once the picture is snapped, it is shipped to

the host system as a jpeg file by default. To revert to bar code reading, you

must change to a different trigger mode (see Manual Trigger Modes beginning

on page 4-6).

Note: You must use an RS232 interface to use this code. Otherwise, menu

codes will not work until you send a serial command for Manual Trigger

Modes (see page 11-18).

Hands Free Time-Out

The Scan Stand and Presentation Modes are referred to as “hands free”

modes. If the scanner’s trigger is pulled 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 pulls)

the scanner reverts to the original hands free mode.

Scan the Hands Free Time-Out bar code, then scan the time-out duration

(from 0-300,000 milliseconds) from the inside back cover, and Save.

Default =

5,000 ms.

Reread Delay

This sets the time period before the scanner can read the

same

bar code a sec-

ond time. Setting a reread delay protects against accidental rereads of the

same bar code. Longer delays are effective in minimizing accidental rereads.

User-Specified Aimer Delay

If you want to set your own length for the duration of the delay, scan the bar

code below, then set the time-out by scanning digits (0 - 4,000 ms) from the

Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual, then scan Save.

Scanner Time-Out

Note: Scanner Time-Out applies only to corded scanners. It does not apply to

cordless systems.

Scanner Time-Out powers down the scanner after the unit has been idle for the

specified time. To prevent the scanner from powering down, set this time-out to

0. Scan Scanner Time-Out, then set the time-out by scanning digits (from 0 -

Aimer Mode

This feature allows you to turn the aimer on and off. When the Interlaced bar

code is scanned, the aimer is interlaced with the illumination LEDs.

Default =

Interlaced.

Centering

Use Centering to narrow the scanner’s field of view to make sure that when the

scanner is hand-held, it reads only those bar codes intended by the user. For

instance, if multiple codes are placed closely together, centering will insure that

only the desired codes are read. (Centering can be used in conjunction with

Aimer Delay, page 4-16, for the most error-free operation in applications where

multiple codes are spaced closely together. Using the Aimer Delay and Center-

ing features, the scanner can emulate the operation of older systems, such as

linear laser bar code scanners.)

Note: To adjust centering when the scanner is in the stand, see Presentation

Centering (page 4-10).

If a bar code is not touched by a predefined window, it will not be decoded or

output by the scanner. If centering is turned on by scanning Centering On, the

scanner only reads codes that pass through the centering window you specify

using the Top of Centering Window, Bottom of Centering Window, Left, and

Right of Centering Window bar codes.

In the example below, the white box is the centering window. The centering

window has been set to 20% left, 30% right, 8% top, and 25% bottom. Since

Bar Code 1 passes through the centering window, it will be read. Bar Code 2

does not pass through the centering window, so it will not be read.

Note: A bar code needs only to be touched by the centering window in order to

be read. It does not need to pass completely through the centering

window.

want to shift the centering window using digits on the inside back cover of this

manual. Scan Save.

Default Centering = 40% for Top and Left, 60% for Bot-

tom and Right.

Preferred Symbology

The scanner can be programmed to specify one symbology as a higher priority

over other symbologies in situations where both bar code symbologies appear

on the same label, but the lower priority symbology cannot be disabled.

For example, you may be using the scanner in a retail setting to read U.P.C.

symbols, but have occasional need to read a code on a drivers license. Since

some licenses have a Code 39 symbol as well as the PDF417 symbol, you can

use Preferred Symbology to specify that the PDF417 symbol be read instead of

the Code 39.

Preferred Symbology classifies each symbology as high priority, low priority,

or as an unspecified type. When a low priority symbology is presented, the

scanner ignores it for a set period of time (see Preferred Symbology Time-out

on page 4-20) while it searches for the high priority symbology. If a high priority

symbology is located during this period, then that data is read immediately.

If the time-out period expires before a high priority symbology is read, the scan-

ner will read any bar code in its view (low priority or unspecified). If there is no

bar code in the scanner’s view after the time-out period expires, then no data is

reported.

Note: A low priority symbol must be centered on the aiming pattern to be read.

High Priority Symbology

To specify the high priority symbology, scan the High Priority Symbology

bar code below. On the Symbology Chart on page A-1, find the symbology

you want to set as high priority. Locate the Hex value for that symbology

and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart (inside back

cover). Scan Save to save your selection.

Default = None

Low Priority Symbology

To specify the low priority symbology, scan the Low Priority Symbology bar

code below. On the Symbology Chart on page A-1, find the symbology you

want to set as low priority. Locate the Hex value for that symbology and

scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart (inside back cover).

If you want to set additional low priority symbologies, scan FF, then scan

the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart for the next symbology.

You can program up to 5 low priority symbologies. Scan Save to save your

selection.

Default = None

Preferred Symbology Time-out

Once you have enabled Preferred Symbology and entered the high and low

priority symbologies, you must set the time-out period. This is the period of

Output Sequence Overview

Require Output Sequence

When turned off, the bar code data will be output to the host as the scanner

decodes it. When turned on, all output data must conform to an edited

sequence or the scanner will not transmit the output data to the host

device.

Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection is

turned on.

Output Sequence Editor

This programming selection allows you to program the scanner to output

data (when scanning more than one symbol) in whatever order your appli-

cation requires, regardless of the order in which the bar codes are

scanned. Reading the

Default Sequence

symbol programs the scanner to

the Universal values, shown below. These are the defaults. Be certain

you want to delete or clear all formats before you read the

Default

Sequence

symbol.

Note: To make Output Sequence Editor selections, you’ll need to know the

code I.D., code length, and character match(es) your application

requires. Use the Alphanumeric symbols (inside back cover) to read

these options. You must hold the trigger while reading each bar code

in the sequence.

To Add an Output Sequence

1. Scan the

Enter Sequence

symbol (see Require Output

Sequence, page 4-25).

2. Code I.D.

On the Symbology Chart on page A-1, find the symbology to which you

want to apply the output sequence format. Locate the Hex value for

that symbology and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming

Chart (inside back cover).

3. Length

Specify what length (up to 9999 characters) of data output will be

acceptable for this symbology. Scan the four digit data length from the

Programming Chart. (Note: 50 characters is entered as 0050. 9999 is

a universal number, indicating all lengths.) When calculating the length,

you must count any programmed prefixes, suffixes, or formatted

characters as part of the length (unless using 9999).

4. Character Match Sequences

On the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-4, find the

Hex value that represents the character(s) you want to match. Use the

Programming Chart to read the alphanumeric combination that

represents the ASCII characters. (99 is the Universal number,

indicating all characters.)

Output Sequence Example

In this example, you are scanning Code 93, Code 128, and Code 39 bar

codes, but you want the scanner to output Code 39 1st, Code 128 2nd, and

Code 93 3rd, as shown below.

Note: Code 93 must be enabled to use this example.

You would set up the sequence editor with the following command line:

SEQBLK62999941FF6A999942FF69999943FF

The breakdown of the command line is shown below:

SEQBLKsequence editor start command

62 code identifier for Code 39

9999 code length that must match for Code 39, 9999 = all lengths

41 start character match for Code 39, 41h = “A”

9999 code length that must match for Code 93, 9999 = all lengths

43 start character match for Code 93, 43h = “C”

To program the previous example using specific lengths, you would have to

count any programmed prefixes, suffixes, or formatted characters as part of

the length. If you use the example on page 4-23, but assume a <CR> suffix

and specific code lengths, you would use the following command line:

SEQBLK62001241FF6A001342FF69001243FF

Partial Sequence

If an output sequence operation is terminated before all your output

sequence criteria are met, the bar code data acquired to that point is a

“partial sequence.”

output sequence operation is terminated before completion. Scan Trans-

mit Partial Sequence to transmit partial sequences. (Any fields in the

sequence where no data match occurred will be skipped in the output.)

Require Output Sequence

When an output sequence is Required, all output data must conform to an

edited sequence or the scanner will not transmit the output data to the host

device. When it’s On/Not Required, the scanner will attempt to get the

output data to conform to an edited sequence but, if it cannot, the scanner

transmits all output data to the host device as is.

When the output sequence is

Off

, the bar code data is output to the host as

the scanner decodes it.

Default = Off.

Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection is

turned on.

Multiple Symbols

When this programming selection is turned On, it allows you to read multiple

symbols with a single pull of the scanner’s trigger. If you press and hold the trig-

ger, aiming the scanner at a series of symbols, it reads unique symbols once,

beeping (if turned on) for each read. The scanner attempts to find and decode

new symbols as long as the trigger is pulled. When this programming selection

is turned Off, the scanner will only read the symbol closest to the aiming beam.

Default = Off.

No Read

With No Read turned On, the scanner notifies you if a code cannot be read. If

using an EZConfig Tool Scan Data Window (see page 10-3), an “NR” appears

when a code cannot be read. If No Read is turned Off, the “NR” will not appear.

Default = Off.

If you want a different notation than “NR,” for example, “Error,” or “Bad Code,”

you can edit the output message (see Data Formatting beginning on page 6-1).

The hex code for the No Read symbol is 9C.

Video Reverse

Video Reverse is used to allow the scanner to read bar codes that are inverted.

The Video Reverse Off bar code below is an example of this type of bar code.

Scan Video Reverse Only to read

only

inverted bar codes. Scan Video

Reverse and Standard Bar Codes to read both types of codes.

Note: After scanning Video Reverse Only, menu bar codes cannot be read.

You must scan Video Reverse Off or Video Reverse and Standard Bar

Codes in order to read menu bar codes.

Note: Images downloaded from the unit are not reversed. This is a setting for

decoding only.

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 break-

down of a message string:

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-4, 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 5-3).

Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart

(included in the Symbology Chart, beginning on page A-1) for the

Prefix Scanned DataSuffix

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-4, 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.

Example: Add a Suffix to a specific symbology

To send a CR (carriage return)Suffix for U.P.C. only:

Step 1. Scan Add Suffix.

Step 2. Determine the 2 digit hex value from the Symbology Chart

(included in the Symbology Chart, beginning on page A-1) for

U.P.C..

Step 3. Scan 6, 3 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this

manual.

Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code

Page 1252), beginning on page A-4, for the CR (carriage return).

Step 5. Scan 0, D from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this

manual.

Step 6. 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 sym-

bologies, you can use Clear One Prefix (Suffix) to delete a specific char-

acter from a symbology. When you Clear All Prefixes (Suffixes), all the

prefixes or suffixes for a symbology are deleted.

5 - 3

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 Chart, 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

Scan the following bar code if you wish to add a carriage return suffix to all

symbologies at once. This action first clears all current suffixes, then pro-

grams a carriage return suffix for all symbologies.

Function Code Transmit

When this selection is enabled and function codes are contained within the

scanned data, the scanner transmits the function code to the terminal. Charts

of these function codes are provided in Supported Interface Keys starting on

page 9-3. When the scanner is in keyboard wedge mode, the scan code is con-

verted to a key code before it is transmitted.

Default = Enable.

Intercharacter, Interfunction, and

be placed between the transmission of each character of scanned data.

Scan the Intercharacter Delay bar code below, then scan the number of

5ms delays, and the Save bar code using the Programming Chart inside

the back cover of this manual.

To remove this delay, scan the Intercharacter Delay bar code, then set the

number of delays to 0. Scan the Save bar code using the Programming

Chart inside the back cover of this manual.

Note: Intercharacter delays are not supported in USB serial emulation.

User Specified Intercharacter Delay

An intercharacter delay of up to 5000 milliseconds (in 5ms increments)

may be placed after the transmission of a particular character of scanned

data. Scan the Delay Length bar code below, then scan the number of

Data Formatting

Data Format Editor Introduction

You may use the Data Format Editor to change the scanner’s output. For exam-

ple, 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 6-4) 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. Specific Terminal ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length

2. Specific Terminal ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length

3. Specific Terminal ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length

4. Specific Terminal ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length

5. Universal Terminal ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length

6. Universal Terminal ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length

7. Universal Terminal ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length

8. Universal Terminal ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length

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.

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

* Default Data Format

6 - 2

you are programming. (See Primary/Alternate Data Formats on page

6-11 for further information.)

Step 3. Terminal Type

Refer to Terminal ID Table (page 6-4) 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 Chart, 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 wish to create a data format for all symbologies, with the

exception of some specific symbologies, refer to B8 (page 6-9).

Step 5. Length

Specify what length (up to 9999 characters) of data will be acceptable

for this symbology. Scan the four digit data length 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 6-4). Scan the symbols

that represent the command you want to enter. 94 alphanumeric

characters may be entered for each symbology data format.

Step 7. Scan Save to save your data format, or Discard to exit without saving

your changes.

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 Chart 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.

dependent on your keyboard (see Unicode Key Maps on page A-8).

Any key can be inserted, including arrows and functions.

Syntax =

B5xxssnn

where xx is the number of keys pressed (without key

modifiers), ss is the key modifier from the table below, and nn is the key

number from the Unicode Key Maps, page A-8.

Key Modifiers

No Key Modifier 00

Shift Left 01

Shift Right 02

Alt Left 04

Alt Right 08

6 - 6

For example, B501021F inserts an “A” on a 104 key, U.S. style

keyboard. B5 = the command, 01 = number of keys pressed (without

the key modifier), 02 is the key modifier for Shift Right, and 1F is the “a”

key. If a lower case “a” were to be inserted, B501001F would be

entered.

If there are three keystrokes, the syntax would change from B5xxssnn

for one keystroke to B5xxssnnssnnssnn. An example that would insert

"abc" is as follows: B503001F00320030F833.

Note: Key modifiers can be added together when needed. Example:

Control Left+Shift Left = 11.

E4 Replaces up to 15 characters in the output message, without moving

the cursor. Replacement continues until the E5 command is

encountered.

Syntax = E4nnxx1xx2yy1yy2...zz1zz2

where nn is the

total count of of the number of characters in the list (characters to be

replaced plus replacement characters); xx1 defines characters to be

replaced and xx2 defines replacement characters, continuing through

zz1 and zz2.

Stop replacing characters

E5 Terminates character replacement.

Syntax = E5.

Compare characters

FE Compare the character in the current cursor position to the character

“xx.” If characters are equal, move the cursor forward one position.

Syntax = FExx

where xx stands for the comparison character’s hex

value for its ASCII code.

Refer to the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), beginning on

page A-4 for decimal, hex and character codes.

Compare string

B2 Compare the string in the input message to the string “s.” If the strings

are equal, move the cursor forward past the end of the string. Syntax

= B2nnnnS where nnnn is the string length (up to 9999), and S consists

of the ASCII hex value of each character in the match string. For

example, B2000454657374 will compare the string at the current

cursor position with the 4 character string “Test.”

Refer to the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), beginning on

page A-4 for decimal, hex and character codes.

Check for a number

EC Check to make sure there is an ASCII number at the current cursor

position. The format is aborted if the character is not numeric.

6 - 9

Check for non-numeric character

ED Check to make sure there is a non-numeric ASCII character at the

current cursor position. The format is aborted if the character is

numeric.

Insert a delay

EF Inserts a delay of up to 49,995 milliseconds (in multiples of 5), starting

from the current cursor position. Syntax = EFnnnn where nnnn stands

for the delay in 5ms increments, up to 9999. This command can only

be used with keyboard wedge interfaces.

Discard Data

B8 Discards types of data. For example, you may want to discard Code

128 bar codes that begin with the letter A. In step 4 (page 6-2), select

6A (for Code 128), and in step 5, select 9999 (for all lengths). Enter

B8FE41 to compare and discard Code 128 bar codes that begin with

the letter A.

Syntax = B8.

Note: Other data format settings impact the B8 command. If Data Format

Non-Match Error Tone is On (page 6-11), the scanner emits an error

tone. If Data format Non-Match Error Tone is Off, the code is

disabled for reading and no tone is sounded. If Data Format is On,

but Not Required (page 6-10), bar code data that meets the B8

format is scanned and output as usual.

Data Formatter

When Data Formatter is turned Off, the bar code data is output to the host as

read, including prefixes and suffixes.

You may wish to require the data to conform to a data format you have created

and saved. The following settings can be applied to your data format:

Data Formatter On, Not Required, Keep Prefix/Suffix

Scanned data is modified according to your data format, and prefixes and

suffixes are transmitted.

Data Formatter On, Not Required, Drop Prefix/Suffix

Scanned data is modified according to your data format. If a data format is

found for a particular symbol, those prefixes and suffixes are not

transmitted. If a data format is

not

found for that symbol, the prefixes and

suffixes

are

transmitted.

Data Formatter Off

6 - 10

Data Format Required, Keep Prefix/Suffix

Scanned data is modified according to your data format, and prefixes and

suffixes are transmitted. Any data that does not match your data format

requirements generates an error tone and the data in that bar code is not

transmitted. If you wish to process this type of bar code without generating

an error tone, see Data Format Non-Match Error Tone.

Data Format Required, Drop Prefix/Suffix

Scanned data is modified according to your data format. If a data format is

found for a particular symbol, those prefixes and suffixes are not

transmitted. Any data that does not match your data format requirements

generates an error tone. If you wish to process this type of bar code without

generating an error tone, see Data Format Non-Match Error Tone.

Choose one of the following options.

Default = Data Formatter On, Not

Required, Keep Prefix/Suffix.

Data Format Non-Match Error Tone

When a bar code is encountered that doesn’t match your required data for-

mat, the scanner normally generates an error tone. However, you may

want to continue scanning bar codes without hearing the error tone. If you

scan the Data Format Non-Match Error Tone Off bar code, data that

doesn’t conform to your data format is not transmitted, and no error tone

will sound. If you wish to hear the error tone when a non-matching bar

code is found, scan the Data Format Non-Match Error Tone On bar code.

Default = Data Format Non-Match Error Tone On

Primary/Alternate Data Formats

You can save up to four data formats, and switch between these formats. Your

primary data format is saved under 0. Your other three formats are saved under

1, 2, and 3. To set your device to use one of these formats, scan one of the bar

codes below.

Single Scan Data Format Change

You can also switch between data formats for a single scan. The next bar

code is scanned using an alternate data format, then reverts to the format

you have selected above (either Primary, 1, 2, or 3).

All Symbologies

If you want to decode all the symbologies allowable for your scanner, scan the

All Symbologies On

code. If on the other hand, you want to decode only a

particular symbology, scan All Symbologies Off followed by the On symbol for

that particular symbology.

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 symbolo-

gies. If the data length of the scanned bar code doesn’t match the valid read-

ing 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

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.

Codabar Check Character

Codabar check characters are created using different “modulos.” You can

program the scanner to read only Codabar bar codes with Modulo 16 check

characters.

Default = No Check Character.

No Check Character

indicates that the scanner reads and transmits bar

code data with or without a check character.

When Check Character is set to

Codabar Concatenation

Codabar supports symbol concatenation. When you enable concatena-

tion, the scanner looks for a Codabar symbol having a “D” start character,

adjacent to a symbol having a “D” stop character. In this case the two mes-

sages are concatenated into one with the “D” characters omitted.

Select Require to prevent the scanner from decoding a single “D” Codabar

symbol without its companion. This selection has no effect on Codabar

symbols without Stop/Start D characters.

Full ASCII

If Full ASCII Code 39 decoding is enabled, certain character pairs within

the bar code symbol will be interpreted as a single character. For example:

$V will be decoded as the ASCII character SYN, and /C will be decoded as

the ASCII character #.

Default = Off

Character pairs /M and /N decode as a minus sign and period respectively.

Character pairs /P through /Y decode as 0 through 9.

Code 39 Code Page

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,

scan the bar code below, select the code page with which the bar codes

were created (see Code Page Mapping of Printed Bar Codes on page A-6),
