loaded into the Barcode Scanner. Connecting the battery with its terminals reversed creates the
danger of battery fluid leakage, heat emission, explosion, and fire.
5)
Never dispose of the battery by incinerating it or otherwise expose it to heat. Doing so creates the
danger of battery heat emission, explosion, and fire.
6)
Never allow the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery to become connected
(shorted) by metal. Doing so create the danger of battery heat emission, explosion, and fire.
7)
Never transport or store the battery together with a necklace, hair pins or other metal objects.
Doing so can short battery terminals, and create the danger of battery heat emission, explosion
and fire. Be sure to place the battery in its case whenever transporting or storing it.
8)
Never throw the battery or otherwise subject it to strong impact. Dong so creates the danger of
battery heat emission, explosion, and fire.
9)
Never pierce the battery with nails, hit it with a hammer, or step on it. Doing so can create the
danger of battery heat emission, explosion, and fire.
10) Never try to take apart the battery in any way. Doing so creates the danger of battery heat
emission, explosion, and fire.
11) Use only the specified charger to charge the battery. Use of other types of charger creates the
danger of battery heat emission explosion, and fire.

Multiple confirm: If this parameter is set to be lager than zero, the engine will require several successful
reads of same-decoded-data to confirm a valid reading. The number of successful reads can be different
according to different types of barcode. As the number of Multiple confirm gets larger, the engine’s
aggressiveness decreases. The number of successful reads required for different types of barcode is
listed below, which is related to the parameter of Multiple confirm.

Global Max./Min. code length: These two lengths are defined as the valid range of decoded barcode
data length. Make sure that the minimum length setting is no greater than the maximum length setting, or
otherwise the labels of the type of barcode will not be readable. In particular, the same value can be set
for both minimum and maximum reading length to force the fixed length barcode decoded.
Notes:
1. Please set the max./min. length for individual barcode in later sections, if a special demand is
requested.
2. The number of check digits is included in max./min. code length.
3. These two settings have no effect on the types of barcode with fixed-length, e.g. UPC-A, UPC-E,
EAN-13, EAN-8 and China Post.
Global G1-G4 string selection: The engine offer one or two string group for ALL types of barcode. By
setting one or two digits to indicate which string group you want to apply. You may refer to the chapters
of “String setting” and “String position & Number of truncated leading/ending character”.
Example: Group 1 → set 01 or 10. Group 2 and 4 → set 24 or 42.
All valid settings include 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 40,
41, 42, 43, and 44.
Element amendment: If it is enabled, the engine can read the barcode comprised with bars and spaces
in different scale.
Printable character only: If it is enabled, the engine will output the printable characters only, i.e. in ASCII
from 20H to 7EH.
Decoder optimization: If it is enabled, the engine will optimize the engine with error correction. This
function is not effective for all types of barcodes.

Appendix B: Pop up the Apple iOS on-screen keyboard
Note: Supports MS3390 with scanner firmware version V5.0.7 and above, and Bluetooth firmware
version V1.7 and above.
Usually, when you connect a Bluetooth barcode scanner to an Apple iOS device in HID mode, the iOS
device recognizes the scanner as a keyboard and hides the on-screen keyboard (or called built-in virtual
keyboard). Anytime you want to manually type anything using the iOS on-screen keyboard you need to
disconnect the scanner.
To eliminate such inconvenience, the MS3390 scanner provides the support of simultaneous use of
scanning and on-screen keystrokes. This feature is enabled by default and is operated as follows.
1.
Connect MS3390 to the Apple iOS device via Bluetooth.
2.
Enter the Scan menu on MS3390.
3.
When press the right soft key of MS3390 once, the Apple iOS on-screen keyboard is popped-up.
Then user can manually type anything using the iOS on-screen keyboard and the scanner is
connected to iOS device by Bluetooth simultaneously. The right soft key is below the symbol
on MS3390 screen.
4.
When press the right soft key of MS3390 once again, the Apple iOS on-screen keyboard is hidden.
