3.CONNECTION The scanner requires a USB human interface device (HID) class driver. No particular installation is required because this device driver is included with all operating systems since Windows 98. Connecting the scanner automatically starts the wizard for installing it, if necessary. Notes When plugging and unplugging the USB connector, put an interval of at least 10 seconds between those actions, since Windows may take several to 10 seconds to add or delete a USB device. Hot plugging/unplugging is allowed for USB devices. However, when the computer is in suspend mode, do not plug or unplug their cables. When the host computer is processing the communications adapter connection, do not plug or unplug any other USB device cables. Never disconnect the USB cable when the communications adapter is in communication. Doing so will not only lose data but affect the system badly. Directly connect the communications adapter to the USB port on the host computer or to the self-powered hub. The communications adapter may not be connected to some types of hubs. If the operation of the hub-connected communications adapter is unstable, connect it directly to the USB port on the host computer 5

5-5.Setting Other Parameters Trigger switch control You may choose the trigger switch control mode from the following five: (1) Auto-off mode Pressing the trigger switch makes the scanner ready to scan for five seconds. If the code reading is completed successfully or five seconds pass, then the scanner will automatically return to the standby mode. (2) Momentary switching mode Only while you hold down the trigger switch, the scanner can read a bar code. Releasing the trigger switch will return the scanner to the standby mode. (3) Alternate switching mode Pressing the trigger switch toggles between the ready-to-scan mode and standby mode. (4) Repeat mode Turning on the scanner immediately makes it ready to scan and keeps it in the ready-to-scan mode. Even if the code reading is completed, you may read the same code repeatedly by pressing the trigger switch by the required number of times, provided that the reading window remains in contact with that bar code and the indicator LED lights in green. (5) Continuous reading mode Turning on the scanner immediately makes it ready to scan and keeps it in the ready-to-scan mode. No trigger switch operation is required. Note: If you turn on the scanner with the reading window applied to a bar code, the scanner cannot read the bar code. To read the code, pull the reading window away from the bar code and then bring it back to the code again. Auto-off mode Momentary switching mode Alternate switching mode Repeat mode Continuous reading mode 32
Double-touch reading The scanner can read UPC-A and EAN-13 bar codes wider than the readable area of the reading window. To scan such wide bars, you need to read first the right (or left) half of the bar code together with the center bar and then read the remaining half. The system combines the split data into one bar code. After the scanner reads the first half of the bar code so that the half data is stored, the beeper keeps sounding intermittently. In double-touch reading, make the first and second runs closely in succession without a long pause inbetween. If the pause between the first and second runs is over one second, then the scanner will cancel out the reading, discard the stored data, and stop beeping. Enable Disable Beeper control Enable Disable Indicator LED control Enable Disable Beeper timing for reading completion Before data transfer After data transfer 33
5-6.User-selection Header/Terminator Setting If you would like to use header/terminator character other than page 28 and 29, you can set header/terminator up to 4 characters. Setting Select the user-selection header (terminator) reading start label to read hexadecimal label, from upper to lower digits of the given characters, based on the user-selection header/terminator setting table (See pages 35 to 36). When data entry is completed, read the user-selection header (terminator) reading completion label with the handy scanner. If you would like to enable the user-selection header/terminator, set the header/terminator user-selection at page of 28 and 29(follow the page 15.) Ex.)

5-7.Setting the Minimum/Maximum Numbers of Digits Readable You may set the minimum and maximum numbers of digits readable for individual bar code types. Setting Procedure (1) Scan the "Set min. number of digits" (or "Set max. number of digits") for the target bar code type. (2) Enter the minimum number of digits in the order of the upper and lower digits by using the "Bar-coded values for decimal entry" given on page 36. If the number of digits is in a single digit (any of 1 to 9), then scan "0" for the upper digit. Canceling Procedure (1) Scan the "Set min. number of digits" (or "Set max. number of digits") for the target bar code type. (2) Enter 00 by scanning "0" twice on the "Bar-coded values for decimal entry." NOTE: If you scan "All defaults," the minimum and maximum numbers of digits readable for all bar code types will be canceled.

7. TROUBLESHOOTING Problem 1: Low reading efficiency. Probable cause The reading window is not applied to a target bar code correctly. The bar code is smeared. The bar code is blurred. What to do: Align the center mark of the reading window to the center of the bar code correctly. Wipe off the dirt from the bar code. Use a bar code clearly printed Problem 2: Cannot read bar codes. Probable cause The scanned bar code has not been set as readable codes. The scanned bar code contains no check digit, while the "Enable, with C/D" is selected. The check digit contained in the scanned bar code is wrong. The power saving function built in the PC is activated. What to do: Set the bar code as a readable code (see pages 25 and 26). Choose "Enable, without C/D." Use a correct bar code. Deactivate the power saving function. Problem 3: Incorrect bar code data displayed on the PC screen. Probable cause The connected keyboard does not match the keyboard type setting you have made. The keyboard's Caps Lock or Num Lock status doe not match the status settings you have made. The scan code set of the scanner does not match that of the PC. The data transmission from the scanner was too fast. Any key on the keyboard is held down. What to do: Set the correct keyboard type (see page 11). Make the keyboard status and scanner status match with each other (see page 10). Select the same scan code set as the PC (see page 12). Prolong the data transmission interval (see page 13). Do not press any key on the keyboard when reading a bar code. 45
