5 Bar Code Programming Menu The DelfiScan bar code commands are specially designed Proprietary bar code labels which allow you to set the DelfiScan internal programming parameters. There are System Command, Family Code and Option Code for programming purpose. Each programmable family and bar code command label is listed on the same page with major system commands. The detailed explanations and special programming flowchart are printed on facing or following pages. You can read the explanation and set the DelfiScan concurrently. A supplemental bar code command menu incorporates the bar code command labels of System Command and Option Code. As you set the DelfiScan, open the bar code command menu to find the option code page. You may scan the desired family code and option code to set DelfiScan. 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. System Command The System Command is the highest level bar code command which directs DelfiScan to perform immediate operations, such as entering programming mode (), exiting programming mode (EXIT), listing system information (SYSLIST), recovering to factory preset configurations (), and so on. Please note that all system commands will take a few seconds to complete the operations. User must wait for the completion beeps before scanning another bar code. Family Code The Family Code is scanned to select the user desired programming family. DelfiScan 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. 5

6 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 DelfiScan s internal Flash Memory ASIC or non-volatile 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 DelfiScan if you want to keep the existing configurations in the next power on. The programming procedures of DelfiScan are designed as simple as possible for ease of setting. Most programming families take the Single Scan Selection programming procedure. But several programming families 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. 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 DelfiScan, please also refer to the 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 DelfiScan. Conventions of Programming Menu Conventions P.C.

33 Operation Control Operation Control Operation Mode Setting Family Code Selection P.C Parameter Selection Option Code Operation Mode Low Power mode (Low Power triggering) Trigger mode/serial mode (External triggering) Presentation mode (Auto detection) Alternative mode (Periodic power off) Flash mode (Pulse driven reading) Force mode (Continued power on) Toggle mode (Repeat reading) Diagnostic mode (Test reading) Lower Power Mode (Low Power Triggering): The scanner goes into idle state after scanning the bar code. You must press the trigger to wake up the scanner for operation. It is very helpful for mobile data collection and application, which are concerned with power savings. Trigger Mode/Serial Mode (External Triggering): The scanner goes into standby state after scanning the bar code. You must press the trigger to turn on the light source of the scanner before scanning the bar code. Presentation Mode (Auto Detection):: Presentation mode uses ambient light to detect bar codes. The LEDs are off for ambient conditions until a change occurs in the imager s field of view. Then the LEDS turn on automatically to read the bar code. If the light level in the room is not high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly. Alternative Mode (Periodic Power Off): The scanner keeps the light source of the scanner turned on and disables the infrared sensor till the pre-defined auto power off duration is up. After the scanner turns off the light source, you must press the trigger to turn on the light source again. After each good read, the auto power off timer counter is reset. You do not have to press the trigger frequently, it is very convenient for multiple scanning. Flash Mode (Pulse Driven Reading):: The scanner flashes the light source of the scanner without using the trigger. If the scanner detects an image which is similar to a bar code, the scanner forces on the light source automatically and scans the bar code. Pulse Driven Duty Cycle adjustment can change the frequency of the blinking. Force Mode (Continued Power On):: The light source of the scanner is forced on for continued operation without pressing the trigger switch. This mode is convenient for high speed bar code reading. Toggle Mode (Repeat Reading): The toggle mode is very similar to the Alternative Mode without the pre-defined auto power off duration concern. You must press the trigger to turn on the light source of the scanner to scan. The scanner keeps the light source turned on until you press the trigger again. Diagnostic Mode (Test Reading): This operation mode is specifically designed for diagnostic purposes. When this operation mode is selected, the light source of the scanner is force on without regard for other programmable parameters, such as double scan verification, redundancy, and so forth.

The Redundancy is the number of times the same bar code label has to be decoded before it is transmitted. The Reread Delay is designed to inhibit DelfiScan from reading the same bar code label twice in pre-defined short duration. Force Verification will not allow reading of the same bar code twice. This Good Read Delay is the minimum amount of time before the imager can read another bar code. 5

36 Operation Control Time-out Setting, Good Read Duration Family Code Selection P.C Parameter Selection Option Code Auto Power Off Duration Short Medium Long Extremely long Hands Free Time-out Short Medium Long Extremely long Good Read Duration Short Medium Long Extremely long The Auto Power Off Duration is a pre-defined power off time out counter for Automatic Mode. You can adjust this parameter to meet your own application requirement. The Force Mode and Presentation Modes are referred to as hands free modes. If the imager s trigger is pulled when using a hands free mode, the imager changes to manual trigger mode. You can set the time for imager to remain in manual trigger mode by setting the Hands Free Time-Out. Once the time-out value is up (if there have been no further trigger pulls), the imager reverts to the original hands free mode. The Good Read Duration is a pre-defined duration of the LED and beep the imager emit on a good read. 6

42 Select a Bar Code Symbology You can select one or all types of bar code symbologies to use Condensed DataWizard for advanced transmission arrangement. If you scan to select all types, the DelfiScan will arrange all incoming data to meet your pre-defined format. If you want to select only one type bar code, please select one of the option code listed below. UPC-E: UPC-A: EAN/CAN/JAN-8: 5 EAN/CAN/JAN-: 4 Code : 7 HIBC: 7 Telepen : Code 8 : UCC/EAN 8 : Code 9 : 7 Code 9 : 9 GS Data Bar : 4 Codabar/NW-7 : 6 Code 5 Family : 8 IATA : 8 Code : UK/Plessey : I/Plessey : Position Calculation [Data Formatter] If there is a 5-character input data string, refer to the following to calculate the actual position for insertion: X X X X X 4 5 Application Example If your bar code label is a 6-digit Interleaved of 5 which includes the information of 6-digit date code, 6- digit serial number and 4-digit unit price, you want the DelfiScan do the following for you without software modification: Apply only Interleaved of 5 to the condensed DataWizard. Check bar code is actually with 6-digit length. Allow bar code output whose date code is leading with 9. Three outputs with TAB suffix. The date code output should skip 9 and replaced it by A. The serial number output should be led with SN. The unit price output should be skipped the first digits. Test Bar Code: Actual Output : A85[TAB]SN456[TAB]76[TAB] [Data Verifier, Data Replacer, Data Organizer] If there is a -character data string, please refer to the following to calculate the actual position for identification.

43 Programming Procedure [Data Verifier] Scan Program to enter the programming mode. Scan Verifier Control and set bar code symbology to 8 (Interleaved of 5). Scan Identified Data Length and set the length to 6. Scan st Identified Character and set the identified position to, then set the identified character to 9 (Hex Code of 9). [Data Formatter] Scan Formatter Control and set bar code symbology to 8. Scan st Insertion and set the identified position to 6, then inserted characters to 9 (Hex Code of TAB), 5 (Hex Code of S), 4E (Hex Code of N). Scan nd Insertion and set the identified position to, then inserted character to 9. In the final, you must scan (Finish) code to terminate this selection. Scan rd Insertion and set the identified position to 6, then inserted character to 9. In the final, you must scan (Finish) code to terminate this selection. [Data Replacer] Scan Replacer Control and set bar code symbology to 8. Scan st Replacement and set the identified position to, then replaced character to 4 (Hex Code of A). [Data Organizer] Scan Organizer Control and set bar code symbology to 8. Scan st Organization and set the identified position to 6, then set the data transmission to (forward). Scan nd Organization and set the identified position to 7, then set the data transmission to (backward). Scan END (Exit) to terminate the programming. [Important Notice] Please note that Condensed DataWizard will follow the preset working flow as below: Verifier Formatter Replacer Organizer So when you set the identified position in Data Organizer, you must consider the inserted data which you already set via Data Formatter. 4
