All scanners deliver world-class performance for a broad range of applications to unleash your productivity. family includes A series area imager, F series linear imager and L series laser imager. The Antimicrobial models are available for A77, L78 and F78 series scanners which are equipped with Disinfectant-ready scanners support USB, PS/(DOS/V) Keyboard Wedge and RS- Serial interfaces. Please choose your desired interface cable, then plug it into the cable interface port of the scanner and connect it to the host. If you would like to remove the cable, please straighten one end of a paper clip, then insert it into the cable release hole to pull out the cable. Housing and Vibrator. Moreover, the option of Vibrator is available for all other series upon request. For more details, please visit our web site or contact your supplier.

9 Getting Started Using Accessories You can enhance productivity of your workforce by using various accessories to fulfill a wide variety of application demand. Universal Holder Thanks to the auto-sense design, the scanner is capable of switching between presentation scanning and hand-held scanning automatically while working with SmartStand. But please note that this feature is not available for F5 series scanners. The stylish Universal Holder is designed for storing your scanner when not in use. It serves to protect the scanner from lens-scratched or falling. Moreover, its artistic-design enhances the entire value of the scanner. But please note that the holder is not applicable for A series scanners. In presentation mode, the barcode may not be detected by the scanner in an environment with very dim ambient lighting. You can select higher sensitivity level through the setting of Presentation Sensitivity to increase scanner s sensitivity. Hand-free SmartStand SmartStand is specifically designed for hand-free applications to maximize user s comfort and productivity. You can adjust the scanner holder to desired position for optimized scanning.

10 Configure Your Bar Code Programming Menual The bar code commands are specially designed Proprietary bar code labels which allow you to set the internal programming parameters. There are System Command, Family Code and Option Code for programming purpose. System Command The System Command is the highest level bar code command which directs to perform immediate operations, such as entering programming mode (), exiting programming mode (EXIT), listing Each programmable family and bar code command label is system information (SYSLIST), recovering to factory listed on the same page with major system commands. The preset configurations (M_DEFAULT) and so on. Please detailed explanations and special programming flowchart are note that all system commands will take a few seconds to printed on facing or following pages. You can read the complete the operations. User must wait for the explanation and set the concurrently. completion beeps before scanning another bar code. A supplemental bar code command menu incorporates the bar code command labels of System Command and Option Code. As you set the, open the bar code command menu to find the option code page. You may scan the desired family code and option code to set. If you want to change the programming family for multiple settings, you need only turn over the programming page to find next desired programming family. Family Code The Family Code is scanned to select the user desired programming family. has already provided more than one hundred programming families to meet any specific requirements. Option Code The Option Codes is a set of bar code commands represented by 9, A F and finishing selection (). For most setting, you must select at least one option code following the family code selection to set the desired parameter for the selected programming family.

11 Configure Your Programming Procedures As you scan the bar code command to select the desired parameters, information about the final selected parameters represented by the bar code commands are stored in the s internal Flash Memory ASIC or memory. If you turn off the unit, the Flash Memory ASIC or non-volatile memory retains all programming options. You need not re-program the if you want to keep the existing configurations in the next power on. If the programming family must take multiple scans selection, cycling scan selection, or dual level selection procedures, the family of the programming menu will be marked with the matched representing symbol of Programming Category (P.C.) in bold font listed in the following table. You can easily find the bold mark in the programming menu, and refer to their flowcharts for details. Before setting the, please also refer to the The programming procedures of are designed as simple as possible for ease of setting. Most programming families take the Single Scan Selection programming procedure. But several programming families Beeping Indications listed in Appendix to understand the details of programming beeping indications. It will be very helpful for you to know the existing status while you are programming the. have more complex and flexible programmable options, and you must take Multiple Scans Selection, Cycling Scan Selection or Dual Level Selection to complete their programming procedures. Each kind of programming procedure is listed in the following pages for your reference. Please give careful attention to become familiar with each programming procedure. 4 Conventions of Programming Menu Conventions Descriptions Factory Default Value P.C.

Chart of thefnc is provided in Appendix- Keyboard Function Code Table. When the scanner interface is set to keyboard, the scan code is converted to corresponding key function before it is transmitted. The function of Caps Lock Control and Key Pad Emulation are only available for IBM PC/AT, PS/VP, PS/ series personal computers and compatible machines. While selecting the other host interfaces, these selections don t perform the above functions for you. Please check the actual Caps Lock state in use while software application is running. If the Caps Lock state is off, select Caps Lock Off state, and then will perform normal data transmission. If the Caps Lock state is on, select Caps Lock On state. Select Auto Detect, will perform special transmission handshaking without changing the status of Caps Lock switch. 4

When the ACK/NAK Software Handshaking option is selected, the waits for an ACK (acknowledge) or NAK (not acknowledge) from the host computer after each data transmission. If the NAK is received, will re-send the data until receiving ACK. NAK Retry Count After transmitting data, the scanner expects a NAK response from the host up to the preset Serial Response Time-out. If the scanner doesn t get a response, the scanner will issue an error indication and discard the data. When a NAK is received, the scanner transmits the same data again and waits for either an ACK or NAK. The scanner issues an error indication and discards the data under following two conditions: ) After preset NAK retry counts is received within the preset serial response time-out. ) If the preset time-out is up but the preset NAK retry counts haven t come to the end. The default retry counts are three times. If you program time, the scanner won t resend the data to the host when the scanner receives a NAK. The scanner will discard the data. If you program 55 times, the scanner can receive unlimited NAKs from the host within the pre-set serial response time-out. This function is not available for batch mode. When you enable this function in on-line mode, the out-of-range function will be disable automatically. ACK Indication: Disable: There s neither LED nor beeping indication for this setting.
