6 HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL All HHD products are supplied with their own Quick Reference Manual which provides connection diagrams, reading diagrams, basic application parameter settings, default values, and specific technical features. Use your device's Quick Reference Manual for initial configuration in order to set the default values and select the interface for your application. If you wish to change the default settings, this manual provides complete configuration of your Hand-Held Device in an easy way. To configure your device: 1) Open the folded page in Appendix C with the hex-numeric table and keep it open during the device configuration. 2) Read the Enter Configuration code ONCE, available at the top of each page in chapter 2. 3) Modify the desired parameters in one or more sections following the procedures given for each group. 4) Read the Exit and Save Configuration code ONCE, available at the top of each page in chapter 2. Reference notes describing the operation of the more complex parameters are given in chapter 3. An alternative configuration method is provided in Appendix A using the RS232 interface. This method is particularly useful when many devices need to be configured with the same settings. Batch files containing the desired parameter settings can be prepared to configure devices quickly and easily. Device configuration can also be performed using the WinSET Windowsbased utility program available from your local Datalogic distributor. This method provides direct RS232 interface configuration as well as configuration barcode printing. v

8 DATALOGIC HHD 1 INTRODUCTION This manual provides all the necessary information for complete software configuration of various Datalogic families of Hand-Held Devices including CCD guns and readers, laser scanners, and decoders. These HHD products contain a built-in decoder and multi-standard interface. They are designed for use in a wide variety of applications and environments including commercial, office automation, retail, and industrial applications where large quantities of information need to be collected rapidly, easily and reliably. These families of HHD products have common status indicator functions which are described in the next paragraph. 1

9 HHD DATALOGIC 1.1 STATUS INDICATORS The HHD readers have two indicators, LED and beeper. They signal several operating conditions which are described in the tables below. POWER UP Beeper L L L L H H H H long tones H L H L Meaning Parameters loaded correctly Parameter loading error, reading or writing error in the non volatile memory Hardware error in EEPROM CONFIGURATION Beeper H H H H L L L L Meaning correct entry or exit from Configuration mode good read of a command command read error LED Beeper Meaning DATA ENTRY ON one beep correct read of a code in normal mode OFF H L H L H L long tones ready to read a code output interface not selected or reader type not selected ( see the Quick Reference Manual) tx buffer full (user configurable) H = high tone L = low tone 2

10 DATALOGIC HHD 2 CONFIGURATION Use your device's Quick Reference Manual for initial configuration in order to set the default values and select the interface for your application. In this manual, the configuration parameters are divided into logical groups making it easy to find the desired function based on its reference group. The first three groups are for Standard Interface parameter configuration: RS232 WEDGE PEN EMULATION If you are using a device that supports an interface selection other than the ones listed above, refer to the Quick Reference manual of the device for specific interface configuration parameters. The following groups apply to all HHD products: DATA FORMAT parameters regard the messages sent to the Host system for all interfaces except Pen Emulation. POWER SAVE manages overall current consumption in the reading device. READING PARAMETERS control various operating modes and indicator status functioning. DECODING PARAMETERS maintain correct barcode decoding in certain special reading conditions. CODE SELECTION parameters allow configuration of a personalized mix of codes, code families and their options. 3

The y value depends on the selected options (check digit tested or not, check digit tx or not, etc.). When customizing the Datalogic Standard code identifiers, 1 or 2 identifier characters can be defined for each code type. If only 1 identifier character is required, the second character must be selected as FF (disabled). The code identifier can be singly disabled for any code by simply selecting FF as the first identifier character. Write in the Custom character identifiers in the table above for your records. 18

51 HHD DATALOGIC 3 REFERENCES 3.1 RS232 PARAMETERS Handshaking Hardware handshaking: (RTS/CTS) The RTS line is activated by the decoder before transmitting a character. Transmission is possible only if the CTS line (controlled by the Host) is active. Signals at EIA levels RTS TX Transmitted data Transmitted data CTS Host busy RTS/CTS handshaking Software handshaking: (XON/XOFF) During transmission, if the Host sends the XOFF character (13 Hex), the decoder interrupts the transmission with a maximum delay of one character and only resumes when the XON character (11 Hex) is received. Transmitted data Transmitted data TX RX XOFF Host busy XON Host ready XON/XOFF handshaking 44

52 DATALOGIC HHD ACK/NACK Protocol This parameter sets a transmission protocol in which the Host responds to the reader after every code transmitted. The Host sends an ACK character (06 HEX) in the case of good reception or the NACK character (15 HEX) requesting re-transmission, in the case of bad reception. Selection of the ACK/NACK protocol automatically disables FIFO buffering see par FIFO This parameter determines whether data (barcodes) are buffered on a First In First Out basis allowing faster data collection in certain cases for example when using slow baud rates and/or HW handshaking. If the FIFO buffering is enabled, codes are collected and sent out on the serial line in the order of acquisition. Up to 185 characters can be collected (buffer full), after which the reader signals an error and discards any further codes until the transmission is restored. If the FIFO buffering is disabled, each code must be transmitted before another one can be read. Selection of FIFO buffering automatically disables ACK/NACK protocol see par , and Sleep state see par RX Timeout When the RS232 interface is selected, the Host can be used to configure the device by sending it command strings (see appendix A). This parameter can be used to automatically end data reception from the Host after the specified period of time. If no character is received from the Host, after the timeout expires, any incomplete string (any string not terminated by <CR>) is flushed from the device buffer. 45

53 HHD DATALOGIC 3.2 PEN PARAMETERS Minimum Output Pulse This parameter sets the duration of the output pulse corresponding to the narrowest element in the barcode. In this way the code resolution is controlled by the signal sent to the decoder, independently of the physical resolution of the code read. The shortest pulse (200 µs) corresponds to a high resolution code emulation and therefore a shorter transfer speed to the decoder (for decoders able to work on high resolution codes). Likewise, longer pulses correspond to low resolution code emulation and therefore a longer transfer time to the decoder Overflow This parameter generates a white space before the first bar and after the last bar of the code. The selections are as follows: narrow = space 10 times the minimum output pulse. medium = space 20 times the minimum output pulse. wide = space 30 times the minimum output pulse Output and Idle Levels The following state diagrams describe the different output and idle level combinations for Pen emulation: 46

55 HHD DATALOGIC 3.3 DATA FORMAT Header/Terminator Selection The header/terminator selection is not effected by the reading of the restore default code. In fact, header and terminator default values depend on the interface selection: RS232: no header, terminator CR-LF WEDGE: no header, terminator ENTER These default values are always restored through the reading of RS232 or WEDGE interface selection code, see the relative Quick Reference Manual. For the WEDGE interface, the following extended keyboard values can also be configured: EXTENDED KEYBOARD TO HEX CONVERSION TABLE IBM AT IBM 3153 IBM XT IBM 31xx, 32xx, 34xx, 37xx HEX KEY KEY KEY 83 ENTER ENTER FIELD EXIT 84 TAB TAB TAB 85 F1 F1 F1 86 F2 F2 F2 87 F3 F3 F3 88 F4 F4 F4 89 F5 F5 F5 8A F6 F6 F6 8B F7 F7 F7 8C F8 F8 F8 8D F9 F9 F9 8E F10 F10 F10 8F F11 ESC F11 90 F12 BACKSPACE F12 91 HOME HOME ENTER 92 END END RESET 93 PG UP PG UP INSERT 94 PG DOWN PG DOWN DELETE 95 FIELD - 96 FIELD + 97 ENTER (Paddle) 98 PRINT 99 ESC ESC 9A CTRL (Right) CTRL (Right) 48

56 DATALOGIC HHD 3.4 POWER SAVE Illuminator/Laser driver To reduce maximum power consumption, this command assures that the Illuminator (for CCD devices), and the beeper are not on simultaneously. For scanners the Laser and the beeper are not on simultaneously Sleep state (only devices with button/trigger) This mode allows the µp in the reader to enter a Sleep state for minimum power consumption. This command is only valid for readers with button/trigger when hardware trigger type is selected. Before entering Sleep mode, the following are verified: no commands coming from Host no data being transmitted to Host Enter Sleep Timeout ended (see par ) To exit Sleep mode press the trigger. Enabling the Sleep state automatically enables Standby mode for CCD devices, see par , and disables FIFO, see par Enter sleep timeout For readers that have the Sleep state enabled, this timeout determines when the reader will enter this state Standby (only CCD devices with button/trigger) If this command is enabled, part of the CCD circuitry shuts down (Standby), in order to optimize low power consumption when not reading. When the trigger is pressed this circuitry powers up. This mode causes a minor delay before the reader is ready, ranging from a few milliseconds to a few tenths of a second (depending on the reader). Disabling Standby mode automatically disables the Sleep state, see par

57 HHD DATALOGIC 3.5 READING PARAMETERS Trigger signal Trigger signal is useful to determine the modality of the reader ON state for readers with trigger when hardware trigger is selected: trigger level: the reader goes ON when the trigger is pressed and goes OFF when it is released trigger pulse: the reader goes ON at the first trigger press and goes OFF only at a second press Trigger-Off Timeout The timeout is useful for readers with trigger when hardware trigger type is selected. When timeout is selected, the reader which isn t decoding turns OFF automatically after the desired period of time Reads per Cycle In general, a reading cycle corresponds to the ON + OFF times of a device. The resulting effects of this parameter on code reading depend on other related configuration conditions. Here are the definitions of ON and OFF times. For readers which operate in FLASH MODE (either readers without button/trigger, or readers with trigger using the software trigger parameter), a reading cycle corresponds to the flash on + flash off times. Code reading takes place during the flash on time. For readers with button/trigger and using the hardware trigger parameter, a reading cycle corresponds to a trigger press (ON) + one of the following OFF conditions: trigger release (for trigger active level) a second trigger press (for trigger active pulse) trigger-off timeout (see par ). 50

58 DATALOGIC HHD When one read per cycle is selected, the device decodes only one code during the ON period and immediately turns OFF the reader. It is only possible to read another code when the next ON time occurs. In multiple reads per cycle, the device decodes a code during the ON period. The flash on or the trigger-off timeout period is immediately reset after each read and therefore extended. If another code is decoded before the reset flash on or timeout period expires, the flash on or timeout is again reset and the effect is that the device remains ON, decoding codes until the flash on or timeout period expires. The Safety Time parameter should be used in this case to avoid unwanted multiple reading of the same code, see par Safety Time Safety time prevents the device from immediately decoding the same code more than once. Same code consecutive reading can be disabled requiring the reader to be removed from the code (no decoding) for at least 400 ms, or a timeout can be set up to 9.9 seconds before the decoder will accept the same code. Reading is immediate if the code changes. 3.6 DECODING PARAMETERS CAUTION These parameters are intended to enhance the decoding capability of the reader for particular applications. Used incorrectly, they can degrade the reading performance or increase the possibility of a decoding error Ink-spread The ink-spread parameter allows the decoding of codes which are not perfectly printed because the page texture tends to absorb the ink. 51

59 HHD DATALOGIC Overflow control The overflow control parameter can be disabled when decoding codes printed on small surfaces, which don t allow the use of an overflow space. This command does not effect code families 2/5, Code 128 and Code Interdigit control The interdigit control parameter verifies the interdigit spacing for code families Code 39 and Codabar. 3.7 CONFIGURATION EDITING COMMANDS The barcode reading configuration method described in each section of chapter 2 of this manual is the most common way to configure your device. However, additional editing commands are available and are described in this paragraph.

62 DATALOGIC HHD APPENDIX A HOST CONFIGURATION STRINGS In this section we provide a description of how to modify the device configuration using serial strings sent from the Host. This method requires the RS232 interface. The device configuration can be changed by receiving commands from the Host through the serial interface. When this method is used, the programming sequence format is the following: $+ Command $- CR Carriage return character (0D Hex.) Exit and Save configuration Character sequence in following tables Enter configuration environment Example: $+ Multiple command programming sequence: BG1 BH0 AC $- CR Carriage return character (0D Hex.) Exit and save new configuration Matrix 2/5 3 bars: no check digit, variable length code from 1 to 32 characters Beeper tone 1 Beeper low intensity Enter configuration environment Each configuration parameter setting removes the condition previously active for that parameter. NOTE The device buffer can contain a maximum of 60 characters. If your programming string goes over this value, you must split it into separate groups and send each group after a delay of at least 3 seconds to give the reader time to empty the buffer and interpret the commands.
