CONFIGURATION METHODS
Reading Configuration Barcodes
If you wish to change the default settings, this manual provides complete
configuration of your reader in an easy way:
To configure your reader:

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
of configuration.

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 of configuration.
Reference notes describing the operation of the more complex parameters are given
in chapter 4.

Using DL Sm@rtSet
DL Sm@rtSet is a Windows-based utility program providing a quick and user-friendly
configuration method via the RS232 or USB-COM interfaces.
It also allows upgrading the software of the connected device (see the DL Sm@rtSet
Users Manual for more details).

Copy Command
A previously configured reader (Master device), can be used to send its configuration
directly to other readers of the same type. The particular procedure for each device is
given in par. 4.9.

Sending Configuration Strings from Host


An alternative configuration method is provided in Appendix A using the RS232 or
USB interfaces. 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.

INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION

This manual provides all the necessary information for complete software
configuration of various Datalogic families of second generation Hand-Held Devices
(HHD II), including CCD guns and readers and laser scanners.
Your reader contains a built-in decoder and multi-standard interface.
It is designed for use in a wide variety of applications and environments including
commercial, office automation, retail, and light industrial applications where
large quantities of information need to be collected rapidly, easily and reliably.
It has several status indicator functions which are described in the next paragraph.

USB Interface Configuration

The USB interface is compatible with:


-

Windows 98 (and later)


Mac OS 8.0 (and later)
IBM POS for Windows
4690 Operating System

The USB interface is compatible with:


Windows 98 (and later)
Mac OS 8.0 (and later)

IBM POS for Windows


4690 Operating System

START-UP
As with all USB devices, upon connection, the Host performs several checks by
communicating with the USB device. During this phase the LED on the device blinks
and normal operations are suspended. Two basic conditions must be met before the
USB device is ready to read codes, the correct USB driver must be loaded and
sufficient power must be supplied to the reader.
For all systems, the correct USB driver for the default USB-KBD interface is included
in the Host Operating System and will either be loaded automatically or will be
suggested by the O.S. and should therefore be selected from the dialog box (the first
time only).
If the Host supplies sufficient power to the reader, the start-up phase ends correctly,
the LED stops blinking and the reader emits the beep OK signal.

HHD II

If the Host does not supply sufficient power to the reader, a dialog box will appear on
the Host and the reader will be blocked (LED continues blinking). In this case,
disconnect the USB device cable at the Host (LED stops blinking), connect and
power-up an external supply to the USB device cable then reconnect the USB device
cable to the Host and close the dialog box. The reader emits the beep OK signal.
You can now read codes. At this point you can read the USB interface configuration
code according to your application. Load drivers from the O.S. (if requested). When
configuring the USB-COM interface, the relevant files and drivers must be installed
from the USB Device Installation software which can be downloaded from the web
site: http://www.scanning.datalogic.com.
The reader is ready.

CONFIGURATION

Once your reader is setup, you can change the default parameters to meet your
application needs. Refer to chapter 2 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 four groups are for Standard Interface parameter configuration, the fifth is
only for IBM 46xx models:

USB

RS232

WEDGE

PEN EMULATION

IBM 46xx

The following parameter groups are common to all interface applications:


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.
ADVANCED FORMATTING PARAMETERS allow code concatenation and
advanced formatting of messages towards the Host. It cannot be used with Pen
Emulation.

KEYBOARD SETTING
ALPHANUMERIC KEYBOARD SETTING
The reader can be used with terminals or PCs with various keyboard types and nationalities
through a simple keyboard setting procedure.
The type of computer or terminal must be selected before activating the keyboard setting
command.
Keyboard setting consists of communicating to the reader how to send data corresponding to
the keyboard used in the application. The keys must be set in a specific order.
Press and release a key to set it.
Some characters may require more than one key pressed simultaneously during normal use
(refer to the manual of your PC or terminal for keyboard use). The exact sequence must be
indicated to the reader in this case pressing and releasing the different keys.
Example:
If one has to press the "Shift" and "4" keys simultaneously on the keyboard to transmit the
character "$" to the video, to set the "$", press and release "Shift" then press and release "4".
Each pressed and released key must generate an acoustic signal on the reader, otherwise
repress the key. Never press more than one key at the same time, even if this corresponds to
the normal use of your keyboard.
Press "Backspace" to correct a wrong key entry. In this case the reader emits 2 beeps.
Note: "CAPS LOCK" and "NUM LOCK" must be off before starting the keyboard setting
procedure. "SHIFT" must be repressed for each character and cannot be substituted by
"CAPS LOCK".

Some ASCII characters may be missing as this depends on the type of keyboard: these are
generally particular characters relative to the various national symbologies. In this case:

The first 4 characters (Shift, Alt, Ctrl, and Backspace) can only be substituted with
keys not used, or substituted with each other.

characters can be substituted with other single symbols (e.g. "SPACE") even if not
included in the barcode set used.

characters can be substituted with others corresponding to your keyboard.

The reader signals the end of the procedure with 2 beeps indicating the keys have been
registered.

DATA FORMAT

AIM standard identifiers are not defined for all codes: the X identifier is assigned to the
code for which the standard is not defined. 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.

4.1.2

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.
If the reader does not receive an ACK or NACK, transmission is ended after the RX
Timeout (see par. 4.1.4).
Selection of the ACK/NACK protocol automatically disables FIFO buffering see par.
4.1.3.

4.1.3

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 hardware handshaking.
If the FIFO buffering is enabled, codes are collected and sent out on the serial line in
the order of acquisition. Several hundred 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.

4.1.4

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.

4.2

PEN PARAMETERS

4.2.1

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 s) corresponds to high-resolution code emulation and
therefore a shorter transfer speed to the decoder (for decoders able to work on highresolution codes). Likewise, longer pulses correspond to low-resolution code
emulation and therefore a longer transfer time to the decoder.

4.2.2

Conversion to Code 39

When using these readers it is possible to convert all codes to Code 39. By disabling
this option the decoded codes will be transmitted in their original format; except for
the following codes which are ALWAYS converted into Code 39 format:
MSI, Plessey, Telepen, Delta IBM, Code 11, Code 16K, Code 49 and RSS Codes.

4.2.3

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
medium
wide

= space 10 times the minimum output pulse.


= space 20 times the minimum output pulse.
= space 30 times the minimum output pulse.

Only codes belonging to the above mentioned set may be transmitted. Each code
transmitted to the Host is recognized by the identifier requested by the protocol. If the
selected code does not belong to this set, it wiII not be transmitted.

Header/Terminator Selection

The header/terminator selection is not effected by the reading of the restore default

Set Custom Extended Header/Terminator Keys

The extended Header/Terminator keys for Wedge Interface users can be


customized by defining them through a simple keyboard setting procedure.
For example, the Numeric Keypad keys can be set for use as Headers or
Terminators by substituting the default extended keys using this procedure.
The type of computer or terminal must be selected before activating the keyboard
setting command.
Press and release a key to set it.
Some characters may require more than one key pressed simultaneously during
normal use (refer to the manual of your PC or terminal for keyboard use). The exact
sequence must be indicated to the reader in this case pressing and releasing the
different keys.
Example:
If one has to press the "Shift" and "4" keys simultaneously on the keyboard to
transmit the character "$" to the video, to set the "$", press and release "Shift" then
press and release "4".
Each pressed and released key must generate an acoustic signal on the reader,
otherwise repress the key. Never press more than one key at the same time, even if
this corresponds to the normal use of your keyboard.
Press "Backspace" to correct a wrong key entry. In this case the reader emits 2
beeps.
Note: "CAPS LOCK" and "NUM LOCK" must be off before starting the keyboard
setting procedure. "SHIFT" must be repressed for each character and cannot
be substituted by "CAPS LOCK".

POWER SAVE

4.5.1

Sleep State/USB Suspend

When using standard devices, this mode allows the P in the reader to enter a
Sleep state for minimum power consumption. This command is only valid 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. 4.5.2)

It is possible to exit Sleep mode either by pressing the button/trigger or by inserting


the reader into the Stand (only for devices with Stand Recognition Beep).
Enabling the Sleep State/USB Suspend implements Standby mode for CCD devices,
see par. 4.5.3.
When using USB devices, this mode allows the device to manage Selective Suspend
conditions generated by the Host Operating System in which optimizing low power
consumption (ex. Windows Stand-by). It is possible to exit the Suspend mode either
from the Host (ex. moving the mouse during Stand-by) or through the barcode
reader. The latter, called Remote Wakeup, makes the device wake up the Host
restoring the communication. Remote Wakeup is possible either by pressing the
button/trigger or by putting the reader into the stand (only for devices with Stand
Recognition Beep).

4.5.2

Enter Sleep Timeout

For readers that have the Sleep state enabled, this timeout determines when the
reader will enter this state.

4.5.3

Standby (only for CCD devices)

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.

READING PARAMETERS

4.6.1

Hand-Held and Stand Operation

These parameter groups allow setting different reading modes for Hand-Held
Operation and Stand Operation:

SoftwareTrigger: the reader is set in FLASH MODE. Code reading takes place
during the flash on time;
Hardware Trigger: the code reading is started with a trigger press (ON);

Hardware Trigger Ready: the illuminator is switched ON when the reader sees
a code. It functions as a pointer aiming at the code to be read. The reading
phase starts only when the trigger is pressed. In this mode the reader is
automatically set to trigger active level and one read per cycle parameters.
(Only for Hand-Held Operation).

Automatic: the illuminator is switched ON when the reader sees a code. The
reading phase starts automatically.

Always ON: the illuminator/laser is always ON and the reader always ready for
code reading.

4.6.2

Hardware Trigger Signal

This parameter determines how the reader ON state is controlled for readers with
button/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

4.6.3

Trigger-Off Timeout

When this timeout is selected, the reader turns OFF automatically after the desired
period of time.

4.6.4

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.

116

REFERENCES

For readers using the software trigger parameter (FLASH MODE), a reading
cycle corresponds to the flash on + flash off times. Code reading takes place
during the flash on time.

For readers using the hardware trigger parameter, a reading cycle corresponds
to a trigger press (ON) + one of the following OFF events:
trigger release (for trigger active level)
a second trigger press (for trigger active pulse)
trigger-off timeout (see par. 4.6.3).

When one read per cycle is selected, the device decodes only one code during the
ON period and immediately turns the reader OFF. It is only possible to read another
code when the next ON time occurs.
In multiple reads per cycle, the ON period is extended so that the device can
continue decoding codes until an OFF event occurs. For software trigger mode, the
flash on period is immediately reset after each read and therefore extended. If
another code is decoded before the reset flash on period expires, it 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. 4.6.5.

4.6.5

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.
For Automatic Hand-Held or Stand Operation, the Safety Time parameter is forced to
no code consecutive reading (00).
The safety time parameter is not applicable when reading stacked codes or when
setting one read per cycle in hardware trigger operating mode, since these settings
require voluntary action by the user.

4.6.6

Automatic Operation Aiming Light

This parameter is valid for CCD long range devices in Automatic Hand-Held or Stand
Operation and allows an aiming light to be continuously emitted in front of the reader
to facilitate the positioning of the barcode to be read.

117

HHD II

4.6.7

Aiming System

This parameter is valid for laser readers and provides a


programmable timeout for the aiming system. If enabled, the scan
line emitted from the reading window is preceded by a red spot
which must illuminate the code center to get the best reading
performance (see figure, ). Once the defined timeout is
reached, the red spot disappears and is followed by the scan line
to start the code scanning.

4.7

DECODING PARAMETERS

CAUTION

4.7.1

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.

4.7.2

Overflow Control

The overflow control parameter can be disabled when decoding codes printed on
small surfaces, which dont allow the use of an overflow space.
This command does not effect code families 2/5, Code 128 and Code 93.

4.7.3

Interdigit Control

The interdigit control parameter verifies the interdigit spacing for code families Code
39 and Codabar.

4.11 FIRMWARE UPGRADES


Device firmware upgrades can be performed using the DL Sm@rtSet external
Downloader utility tool from your PC either through RS232 or USB communications.
The procedure for downloading is described in the DL Sm@rtSet User's Manual and
in the Help window.
A special case occurs when using USB communications to upgrade devices without
button/trigger.
Procedure:

For devices WITHOUT button/trigger

Launch the Downloader tool from the DL Sm@rtSet folder on your PC.

Connect the device to the PC via USB interface.

Read the code given below to emulate the trigger press:


Trigger Press

#+Upgradex
The device will automatically be reset.

Proceed with the firmware upgrade (see the DL Sm@rtSet User's Manual for
details).

HOST CONFIGURATION STRINGS

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 either the RS232 or USB-COM 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

AC410132

$-

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 about 400 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.
