Introduction______________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ aitronic 1-11. Introduction The mobile terminals PMS 1200/1500, HTE 1800/1900 and MobiScan from aitronic are usable in several ways for scanning barcodes and manually data capturing. Different device types and options are available (refer to Technical Manual, chapter 1 Device Types). Depending on the type of the serial interface off- and online network applications can be implemented. For all devices in this manual the designation MT (Mobile Terminal) is used. All PMS 1200/1500 device types in this manual are named PMS, all HTE 1800/1900 device types are named HTE. In general devices with keyboard include all functions of devices without keyboard. In function descriptions which concern only to devices with keyboards a particular reference is made.
Warning Hints____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ aitronic 2-12. Warning Hints Laser Scanner Module The mobile terminals PMS/HTE/MobiScan are equipped with a low power laser diode for visible light. The wave length is 650 nm and the nominal laser power is 1,2 mW. The laser scanner meets the CDRH/IEC Class II requirements. As with other strong light sources the operator should avoid looking directly into the laser beam. Occasionally irradiation with CDRH/IEC Class II laser light is not known to be injurious. The required security labels are located below the laser light window. Never open the laser module or perform any maintenance work at the module because the laser security specification may be injured. The laser module may only be repaired in the factory. Accus Attention! In case of improper handling of the accus there will be danger of explosion. In case of waste disposal of used accus you should pay attention to the Recycling Orders (look for chapter Recycling Orders/Battery Order). At this point we want to explicitly attention to that we don’t overtake guarantee for damages which are the consequence of wrong dealing with the devices.
Security & Regulatory______________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ aitronic 3-13. Security & Regulatory This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Care Instructions _________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ aitronic 4-14. Care Instructions Your data capturing device with integrated laser scanner module is a high grade and robust unit consisting of electronic and laser optic devices. An faulty treatment of this device can considerable affect function and efficiency. To guarantee lasting and constant operation you should consider the following care instructions! Care of the Scanner The red scanner screen of your terminal forms and the inner resided scanner module form an optical unit. This screen is provided with a special coating. A damage of this coating i.e. by scratches may lead to problems when scanning barcodes. Because of this a clean and moist cloth should be used when cleaning the screen. Before rough dirt may be removed with a soft brush. Cleaning agents may not be used for the screens care and cleaning. Terminal of the MobiScan family habe an aluminum case. All other scanners from ours have a plastic case. Although both are robust materials for cleaning only a soft cleaning angent should be used. Dealing with the Devices Markings The attached marking labels (warning and security labels) may not be removed on principle. They are the legitimation for the operation with this terminal. Making the terminals data plate or informations on the data plate (i.e. the serial number) unrecognizable should be avoided. Missing information on the data plate may lead to a more difficult identification. This may further lead to problems which couldn’t be solved by telephone. In this case the terminal must be sent in. Further we recommend the attachment of additional information (i.e. department or personal numbers) labels with plastic back. Simple paper back labels aren’t durable enough. In that way sticking parts may smudge the scanner screen. In this case on the one hand the scanner function will be affected, on the other hand a cleaning without ignoring the above instructions woun’t possible because a solvent would be required. Repairing Screen Damages In case of overstress the screen may be loosen. We explicitly attention to that self repairing with short time glue may affect in such strong way that the screen or the casing must be changed.
Communication/Charging Adapter ____________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ aitronic 5-15. Communication/Charging Adapter The Communication/Charging-Adapter deals for connection a mobile terminal to an RS-232 port of a PC or other computer. The Communication/Charging-Adapter is equip-ped with a fast charging device, which also deals for loading the integrated mobile teriminal accus. Starting Operation 1. Switch of your computer. 2. Connect the RS-232 cable to the desired COM port of your PCs. 3. Connect the Communication/Charging-Adapters main plug to a 220 V AC outlet. The ground protection must be connected. The Communication/ Charging-Adapters LED glowes green. 4. Now switch on your computer an start your application program. 5. Connect the mobile terminal to the am Communication/Charging-Adapter. The Communication/Charging-Adapters LED now glows orange. The trickle charging mode is active an the mobile terminal is ready for data communication.
Installation of PC Software MTWIN ___________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ aitronic 6-16. Installation of PC Software MTWIN The PC Software MTWin is used for data exchage with mobile terminals.

System Functions_________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ aitronic 7-3Switching on/off The device switches on in case of • hitting the keyboard (devices with numerical keyboard) respectively the power on key (upper left, devices with alphanumerical keyboard), • pressing the scanner switch, • connecting the serial interface to a PC where an application is active which has activated the RTS signal of the serial interface (not with devices with RF module and LAP-EC). In case of inactive signal CTS (this means: no charging/ transmission adapter is connected or on the PC no application is active which has set the serial interfaces signal RTS) and for the duration which is adjusted with configuration parameter Power Off Time no operation is performed (hitting of keyboard/scanner switch or data transmssion with a RF device) the device powers off automatical to economize the integrated accumulators and therefore to guarantee an long operation time. Manually switching off is performed by • holding down key SHIFT and pressing key * in case of using a device with numerical keyboard. After releasing both keys the device switches off itself. • pressing the power on key (upper left) in case of using a device with alphanumerical keyboard. LCD Displays Normally the actual entry mask for article number (Standard Program 1 and 2) and quantity (only Standard Program 1) is shown. Another display content (program message or the a stored record in case of scanning through data memory) keeps staying on LCD until the scanner switch or the keyboard is hit or until the device is switched off. With RF devices (only in case of an actual entry mask) the data net activity is shown on the last LCD position. The symbol ∗ indicates that the device was polled from the RF server with its address (serial no.). The symbol o indicates that the device was polled from the RF server with the login address (000000). Normally this two symbols are changing alternately in case of an logged in device. If only the symbol o is shown the device is not logged in. If a device resides outside the active RF area or the RF server is not active no one of those two symbols are shown.
_______________________________________________________ System Functions aitronic ____________________________________________________________________ 7-4Scanner Handling Testing the Scanner Hold the scanner above a light surface and press the trigger. Now you should se the red laser beam on the surface and with the PMS 1500 the LED 'Scanning' should be on. Scanning Barcodes Hold the scanner in front of a barcode and press the trigger. Notice the fol-lowing operating tips: • Vary the scanner position in that way that the laser beam sweeps the middle of the barcode and overlaps it at both sides. • The larger the barcode, the farther away you should hold the scanner. • Hold the scanner closer for barcodes which are printed with a higher density. • Hold the scanner not in a right angle to the barcode. In this position light can bounce back into the scanner and influence the decoding perfor-mance or even prevent decoding at all. When the scanner has read the barcode • you will hear the 'Decode Beep' (standard configuration: short double beep), • with the PMS 1500 the LED 'Good Read' will turn on for a short time (standard configuration: 3 seconds), • and the laser beam will be switched off. If you follow these instructions and fail to scan read section "If nothing functions" below. What does the different beeps mean? Listen to the 'Decode Beep' (standard configuration: short double beep). This means that the barcode has been decoded successfully. A long error beep means that the selected function respectively the read barcode is not valid. If nothing functions If you follow previous instructions and fail to scan: • Ensure that the accumulators are charged. • Make sure that the MT is configured for the barcode type which should be read. • Make sure that the barcodes are not demaged or dirty. Check the barc-ode print quality. If you have performed these checks and the barcode still cannot be decoded contact your authorized distributor.
System Functions_________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ aitronic 7-5What should be notice with laser light devices The laser scanners use a low-powerlaser diode for visible laser light. As wiht any bright light source the user should avoid staring directly into the laser beam. Momentary exposure to a CDRH Class II laser is not known to be harmful. The required safety labels are placed below the laser light window and above the trigger switch. Manually Data Entry Enter article number and quantity manual with keys 0…9 The cursor points to the next entry position. Use key C (respectiveley CLR in case of devices with alphanumeric keyboard) to delete the character left beside the cursor. Use key + to close the entry of the article number and to go to the quanity entry field. Use key * (respectiveley MENU in case of devices with alphanumeric keyboard) to enter the point in case of decimal entries. Pressing key + when the cursor resides in the quanity entry field the article number and the quantity will be stored into data memory and the empty entry mask is shown again. Deleting Characters By pressing key C (respectiveley CLR in case of devices with alphanumeric keyboard) the character left beside the cursor is deleted. In case of empty entry field the cursor jumps to the previous entry field. Single digits of a scanned barcode can't be deleted. In this case there is only the option to delete the entire entry field. Deleting Entry Field Devices with numerical Keyboard By holding down key SHIFT and pressing key C the entire entry field in which the cursor resides is deleted. Devices with alphanumerical Keyboard Press key DEL instead of SHIFT C
_______________________________________________________ System Functions aitronic ____________________________________________________________________ 7-6Select next Entry Field If there has been at least one digit entered in the article number field and there is a quantity field available (Standard Program 1) this may be selected by pressing key +. Closing Entry and storing the Record If there has been at least one digit entered in the last entry field the whole entry is closed by pressing key +. Storing of the record is performed if • the configuration parameter Data Destination Memory is set, • or the configuration parameter Data Destination SIO is set but the RS-232 signal DTR is not active. The record is transmitted to the serial interface if the configuration parame-ter Data Destination SIO is set and the RS-232 signal DTR is active. After storing respectively transmitting the record to the serial interface the next empty entry mask is shown.

_________________________________________________________ Software Update aitronic ____________________________________________________________________ 9-2For a software update the following steps must be performed: • Connect device via charging/transmission-adapter to the desired COM to the PC. • Start program MTCON on the PC. • If COM2 should be used this must be selected under Options/Serial Inter-faces. • Read the two following function barcodes: Enable Load default Function Codes Configuration Öü$X1?ä Öüö*/öööösä • Load desired S-File with function Functions/Software Update/S-File. • If the required boot program version isn't already loaded (refer to table on previous page) load boot program MTBOT.S with function Functions/Soft-ware Update/S-File. • When the boot program prompts ready load standard software MTSTDxxx.S with function Functions/Soft-ware Update/S-File. Although the standard software MTSTD is configurable concerning hard- and software (exception: MTSTD can't be configured for the PSC Scanner with serial LCD interface, with this device the special S-File must be loaded) for the different device and communication types S-files are available. The nomenclature of the S-files conforms to the following sheme: MTSTDgp.S SIO Protocol _ no SIO Protocol, F LAP-EC/RF, G LAP-EC/RS-485-Cradle, H LAP-EC/INAP. Device Type _ PMS 1200, PMS 1500 and hardware compatible devices, P PSC Scanner with serial LCD interface. The underline '_' is only used if there are more parameters different from the underline before the file extension.
Software Update__________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________aitronic 9-3Examples: MTSTD.S Standard Software for PMS 1200/1500 and compatible devices without SIO Protocol for software update with MTCON or terminal emulation program. MTSTD_G.S Standard-Software für PMS 1200/1500 and compatible devices for connection to a RS-485-Network. A software update must be performed with MTCON or a terminal emulation program. The boot program (from v4.4) runs the software update with the actual parameters (SIO parameter, protocol), so that it is possible to load software update via LAP-EC. When the boot program is called it stores the actual parameters in Flash-ROM, so that even after breaking off a software update a new run with these parameters is possible. If it is not possible to run the software update with the actual parameters the boot program can be set to the standard parameters if the reset button is pressed during the RAM test after cold start.

_________________________________________________ Standard Program MTSTD aitronic ____________________________________________________________________ 14-4Data Transmission Data transmission can be done with MTWIN or a client specific application. With Charging/Communication Adapter or Infrared Cradle (offline) Connect the charging/communication adapter or the infrared cradle to the appropriate interface (default for MTWIN is COM1) of the PC and start MTWIN on the PC. With RS-485 Cradle or LAP-EC (offline) Connect the RS-485-Cradle (resp. the RS-485 network) to the appropriate interface (COM1 or COM2) of the PC and start PRONET on the PC. With RF Modue and LAP-EC (online) Connect the RF base station (accesspoint) to the appropriate interface (COM1 or COM2) of the PC and start PRONET on the PC (refer to PRONET MANUAL). With Charging/Communication Adapter (RS-232) or Infrared Cradle The data transmission may be performed in several ways: • Manual data transmission with the appropriate function codes or the appropriate menu function. • Calling the data via the serial interface from PC program MTWIN or from a client specific application. • In case of configuration parameter Start Data Transmission: PowerOn+ CTS or SIO Command set after switching on the terminal via interface line DTR "Ready for Data Transmission" will be show on the LCD. At the beginning of data transmission "Data Transmission active..." will be shown an the captured data are transmitted.The end of data transmission will be shown with "Data Transmission completed" angezeigt. If the terminal is connected to the serial interface during data capturing and therefor switched on all the time, the captured data may be called using the appropriate SIO command. ATTENTION: In case of infrared data transmission a finally error rate can’t be prevented (below 1 promille). Therefor when using an infrared cradle the XModem-protocol muss be used for data transmission!
Standard Program MTSTD__________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________aitronic 14-5With RF Communication or RS-485 Network and LAP-EC In case of active LAP-EC the captured data are first stored in data memory. The data transmission is then performed in background to the PC. An established data connection between terminal and PC is required. This data connection is active when the terminal is logged in and right below on the LCD the symbol o is shown. When using an RS-485 cradle the terminal must be put into the cradle.
