2 First, product introduction 1, Functional characteristics Welcome to this new concept wireless barcode collector. It combines a wireless barcode scanner with a variety of commonly used wireless barcode data collector functions, allowing users to use it directly without any programming. It is equipped with a keyboard and screen to solve the functions that traditional wireless barcode scanners cannot solve. The wireless collector supports a USB flash drive function that emulates the internal data area of a USB flash drive and exchanges files and data with the computer. The wireless base station with USB interface supports analog keyboard mode and can be used under WINDOWS without any driver. This device uses a laser bar code scanning engine with fast scanning speed and large depth of field to meet the needs of most industries. This device supports the industry standard FAT file system and DBF database engine. It can exchange database files through the simulated USB flash drive and computer, and can display the product name and various related information when counting. With a unique

3 high-speed search engine, you can query 100,000 product barcodes in 0.01 seconds. The wireless barcode collector uses a 433M wireless frequency. Two-way communication methods are connected to the SQL database to exchange data with each other. There is a wireless signal strength indicator on the screen. Supports up to 32 wireless channels, and the transmission distance is generally meters in a non-blocking actual use environment. 2, Technical parameters 1), 32-bit high-speed ARM series CPU 2), FLASH memory: 16MB, support U disk mode. 3), power supply: 2 sections of the 5th battery, support charging through the USB port. 4), display: 176 x220 TFT color LCD screen, white backlight. 5), size: 165 x 65 (54) x 38 (26) mm, about 180 grams 6), 24-key high quality silicone keyboard 7), standby time: more than half a year. 8), continuous working time: hours, at least 10,000 scans 9) Support off-site protection, you can switch on and off at any time

Second, start using 1, Boot and shutdown Once the battery is installed, the handheld can be turned on and enter the main menu. The red button in the middle of the bottom is the power button for switching the handset. After the handset is turned off, the current state of the handset remains, and will be restored to the state it was in before the reboot.

5 2, Use the keyboard The handset has a total of 24 buttons, divided into 4 parts: (1) The yellow button in the middle of the top row is the scan button, and the M1 button on the left is often used as the OK button. The M2 button on the right is often used as the cancel button. (2) The second row is the [up] and [down] direction keys. (3) 3-6 is the number key and the exit key [ESC]. After switching the input method, the numeric keys can also be used to input letters. (4) The last 2 rows are function keys [F1]-[F4], [SW], [Power], [Backlight]. The SW key defaults to the input mode mode switch key. 3, USB wireless base station The USB wireless base station is a PC-side wireless transceiver of the wireless collector, and is configured to receive the barcode data sent by the handheld device and send it to the PC through the USB port. The USB wireless base station is a USB plug-and-play device that emulates a keyboard mode and does not require a driver to be installed. Third, detailed operation 1, Wireless scanner mode The wireless scanner mode has the same functionality as a traditional

wireless scanner, which scans the bar code and transmits it to the computer immediately. The picture on the right shows the interface after entering this function.

6 wireless scanner, which scans the bar code and transmits it to the computer immediately. The picture on the right shows the interface after entering this function. Displayed under the status bar is the scanned bar code value, which allows a maximum of 2 lines and 40 characters. Due to the uncertainty of wireless communication, the DC8050 wireless barcode collector still allows scanning of barcodes and automatically buffering them when communication is interrupted occasionally. Up to 1000 barcodes can be cached at one time. When the communication is restored, the DC8050 will automatically send the buffered barcode to the base station.

The DC8050 wireless barcode reader comes with a keyboard and screen that allow manual entry of barcodes. Press [F1] to enter the manual input state.

Input mode, press [M1] to confirm, press [ESC] to cancel. 2, Barcode collection mode This mode is non-real-time transmission mode. After all barcodes are collected, they can be transferred in batches.

There are 3 input modes for manual input, numbers, lowercase letters, uppercase letters, 123 for numeric mode, abc for lowercase mode, ABC for uppercase mode, and [SW] for three types. Input mode, press [M1] to confirm, press [ESC] to cancel. 2, Barcode collection mode This mode is non-real-time transmission mode. After all barcodes are collected, they can be transferred in batches. Users can choose to export or export barcodes to text files wirelessly. All scanned barcodes are saved to the FLASH memory in the scan order, and power loss does not result in data loss. The picture on the right shows the main menu of the bar code acquisition mode. (1. Bar code collection: The interface is as shown on the right. (2, browse: list view collection barcode (3. Wireless transmission: automatically send the

collected barcode through wireless. The format of the transmission can be set by itself, such as barcode + carriage return, or barcode + 2 carriage return, etc.

8 collected barcode through wireless. The format of the transmission can be set by itself, such as barcode + carriage return, or barcode + 2 carriage return, etc. The format of the transmission is in the export format of the parameter setting. Settings. Please be prepared to receive the program on the computer before sending it wirelessly. The common receiving programs are EXCEL and Notepad. (4. Export to text file: Export the collected barcode to a text file according to the specified export format. The file name in single library mode is barcode collection.txt (English is Collect.txt); collection is based on multiple library modes. Library X..txt, X is the library number, such as the collection library 2.txt (English is BarlibX.txt) (5. Clear data: the data should be cleared before each new acquisition operation. (6, parameter setting: configuration of acquisition acquisition mode 1. Repeat barcode mode setting: (1, does not process duplicate barcodes; (2, when the repeated bar code is encountered, the prompt is skipped or saved;

9 (3. It is forbidden to scan the repeated barcodes, and the repeated barcodes are unconditionally filtered. 2. Configure the basic mode. Users can configure the mode of a single library or multiple libraries; in multiple library modes, users can customize the library name, up to 32 libraries, each of which is independent. Record Length Used to set the maximum length of the collected barcode. The default is 30. (The default entry password is 13579) 3. Restore factory settings 4. Set the export format. Export to wireless or file mode format Normally, the format of wireless transmission to the computer is barcode + carriage return, but there are some special applications that may require 2 carriage returns or add various special characters. This complex output format can be set by barcode export format. The format is as follows: B indicates the barcode, A indicates the local number (ie, the local address, set in the wireless settings), N indicates the number (the use of the inventory function), the dot is the separator, and

10 1-127 is the character value of the ASCII code. For example, the default B indicates that the output is bar code + carriage return; B indicates that the bar code is followed by 2 carriage returns; A.58.B indicates that the output is machine number: bar code + carriage return, 58 is the colon ASCII Code value; 126.B means the output is ~ bar code ~ + carriage return, 126 is the ASCII code value of ~. Commonly used ASCII code values are shown on the right 5. Set the transmission interval. The time interval for sending barcodes wirelessly can be modified to suit the needs of some applications. If you enter 9999, it means that each time you press the button, a bar code is sent, so that the entire upload process is completely manual. (7) Library management: This menu item will be displayed when multi-library mode is selected. Users can manually add and enter the library name, view the library name information, or load the library name through the ini file, which simplifies the input. The inventory mode supports up to 32 libraries. 3, inventory (no name) mode The Count (no name) mode is one of the simplest counting modes, dealing only with barcodes and quantities, and does not support item

11 names. Each library can store up to 10,000 records (barcodes) at a time. The main menu of the inventory mode is shown on the right. (1) Inventory After scanning the barcode, the number is automatically accumulated or manually entered. Each time the barcode is scanned, the number corresponding to the barcode is incremented by one, or the number of counts can be manually entered by the numeric keys to be modified. (2) Inventory browsing (3) Wireless transmission: The collected barcode and quantity are sent to the computer wirelessly, and the format of the transmission can be set in the export format by itself. (4) Export to text file: Export the collected barcode and quantity into a text file according to the specified export format. In single-library mode, the file name is directly counted bar code acquisition.txt (English is Count.txt); in

multiple library mode, it is the inventory library X..txt, X is the library number, such as the inventory library 2.txt (English method is InvLibX.txt) (5) Clear all data: Empty the count data.

12 multiple library mode, it is the inventory library X..txt, X is the library number, such as the inventory library 2.txt (English method is InvLibX.txt) (5) Clear all data: Empty the count data. Be sure to clear the original saved count data before the new count starts. (6) Parameter setting: The 2, 3, and 4 items of the parameter settings are the same as the bar code acquisition mode. 1. Configure the basic mode There are some special configurations related to the counting function, as shown in the right figure. (The default entry password is 13579) The default export format for inventory (no name) is B.44.N.13.10, which means barcode + comma + quantity + carriage return; N indicates the number, and 44 is the ASCII value of the comma. If the intermediate separator is TAB, set it to B.9.N.13.10, where 9 is the ASCII value of the TAB. 1. Library configuration You can select the mode of a single library or

13 multiple libraries. When multiple library modes are selected, the last item in the inventory main menu will add a [Library Management] project. 2. Record length is the record length containing bar code and quantity information, generally required to be larger than the longest bar code length 5 3. The number of decimal places refers to the number of decimal places supported by the number of inventory inputs, and 0 means that decimals are not supported. Decimal places can be selected between 0-4, up to 4 decimal places 4. Scanning automatically adds 1 means that the number is automatically accumulated when scanning the barcode; Yes means automatic accumulation, No means no accumulation, you need to manually input the quantity after each scan (press the number key will automatically activate the quantity input) (7) Library management: see library management of barcode collection mode 4, System configuration Note: Entering some important setup items requires a password. The default password is

Entering through this menu item requires a dedicated PC-side update program and USB driver.

15 can use this function to recover, but all files will be lost. Please be careful. (6. Charging monitoring: If you use NiMH rechargeable battery, you can use this function to charge the battery of the handheld. If it is not a rechargeable battery, please do not use it. (7, Chinese and English mode switching The system setting function is described in detail below. (1. Set bar code parameters: including decoding type setting, decoding option setting, wireless gun export format, acquisition mode export format, direct inventory export format, effective length setting, etc. Among the export format settings, see the bar code acquisition mode export format. Description. the decoding type) The barcode identification setting is used to set the barcode type that the DC8050 wireless barcode collector

16 needs to support. The bar code types used in many industries are fixed. For scanners, the fewer types of decoding are required, the faster the decoding speed and the higher the accuracy. The image on the right shows the interface for barcode type identification. The bar code type with * in the figure indicates that the type of decoding has been activated and can be recognized; the bar code type without * indicates that decoding is prohibited. As shown in the figure, Code93 code, without the * before the postal code, indicates that the two barcodes cannot be decoded by the DC8050. The decoding/non-decoding can be switched by pressing the corresponding number key. After setting, press [M1] to save and exit. length setting: The effective barcode length indicates the length of the barcode that is allowed to be output. The default is 1-50, which means any length (the DC8050 wireless scanner supports up to 50 barcodes). Users can set a valid barcode length for a single, multiple, or multiple set of ranges. For example, input 13 means that only 13-bit bar code output is allowed; means that

only 8, 13, and 15 bit long bar code outputs are allowed. 15 18 means that the allowed barcode length is 15, 16, 17, and 18. 8.10.

17 only 8, 13, and 15 bit long bar code outputs are allowed means that the allowed barcode length is 15, 16, 17, and means that the 8 barcode lengths of 8, 10, 13, 14, 15, and 16 can be output. (2, wireless configuration Wireless communication configuration includes setting the local address, wireless communication channel (also wireless channel) and wireless base station configuration. The local address range is The machines on the same channel used in the same location cannot have the same local address. Otherwise, the transmission and reception will be confusing. The range of wireless channels ranges from Different wireless channels mean that the communication frequencies are different, so machines with multiple wireless channels in the same location can be used simultaneously without interference. The handset and the wireless base station must be paired before they can be used. The principle of pairing is: 1 wireless base

18 station can support multiple handsets at the same time, but the local address of the handset cannot be the same, and only one wireless base station can exist on the same channel. Pairing method of wireless base station and handset: a. Disconnect the wireless base station (unplug the USB cable) b. Set the local address and wireless channel of the handset in the wireless configuration of the handset. c. Entering to pair with the wireless base station, then prompting to search for the wireless base station d. Access the wireless base station (connected to the USB). Under normal circumstances, the prompt that the base station has found will appear on the screen. At this time, press the ENT key to pair the wireless base station with the handset. Set the base station transmission mode: Currently there are three transmission modes from base station to computer. rt (hardware serial port) mode The default is USB keyboard mode. USB serial port and

19 hardware serial port mode are used for specific software or equipment, and are also suitable for two-way data transmission. (3) Set the automatic shutdown time: the default is 180 seconds, that is, the automatic shutdown is not operated within 3 minutes, and the user can set it within the range of seconds. (4) Set the buzzer volume: setting range 1-5, no mute (5) Display contrast setting: set the display contrast of the LCD screen 5, system kernel management and application updates The DC8050 data collector supports updating the application with a USB cable. For the first time, the driver needs to be installed. The driver file is included in the application update package. To enter the application download interface, you need to enter the system kernel management first. There are two ways to enter the system kernel management mode: Application 2.
