Shift Lock is used when you normally have the Shift Lock key on (not common
to U.S. keyboards).
Shift Lock
Automatic Caps Lock is used if you change the Caps Lock key on and off.
The software tracks and reflects if you have Caps Lock on or off (AT and PS/2
only). This selection can only be used with systems that have an LED, which
notes the Caps Lock status.
Autocaps via NumLock bar code should be scanned in countries (e.g., Ger-
many, France) where the Caps Lock key cannot be used to toggle Caps Lock.
The NumLock option works similarly to the regular Auotcaps, but uses the Num-
Lock key to retrieve the current state of the Caps Lock.

Emulate External Keyboard should be scanned if you do not have an external
keyboard (IBM AT or equivalent).
Note: After scanning the Emulate External Keyboard bar code, you must power
cycle your computer.
Keyboard Modifiers
This modifies special keyboard features, such as CTRL+ ASCII codes.
Control + ASCII Mode On: The scanner sends key combinations for ASCII
control characters for values 00-1F. Windows is the preferred mode. All key-
board country codes are supported. DOS mode is a legacy mode, and it does
not support all keyboard country codes. New users should use the Windows
mode. Refer to Keyboard Function Relationships, page 7-1 for CTRL+ ASCII
Values. Default = Off

Parity provides a means of checking character bit patterns for validity.
Default = None.
2 - 15
RS-232 Handshaking
RS232 Handshaking allows control of data transmission from the scanner using
software commands from the host device. When RTS/CTS is turned Off, no
data flow control is used.
RTS/CTS
The scanner asserts RTS when it has data to send, and waits indefinitely for
CTS to be asserted by the host.
Default = RTS/CTS Off.
RTS/CTS On
* RTS/CTS Off
XON/XOFF
Standard ASCII control characters can be used to tell the scanner to start send-
ing data (XON/XOFF On) or to stop sending data (XON/XOFF Off). When the
host sends the XOFF character (DC3, hex 13) to the scanner, data transmission
stops. To resume transmission, the host sends the XON character (DC1, hex
11). Data transmission continues where it left off when XOFF was sent.
Default = XON/XOFF Off.
XON/XOFF On
* XON/OFF Off
ACK/NAK
After transmitting data, the scanner waits for an ACK character (hex 06) or a
NAK character (hex 15) response from the host. If ACK is received, the commu-
nications cycle is completed and the scanner looks for more bar codes. If NAK
is received, the last set of bar code data is retransmitted and the scanner waits
2 - 16
for ACK/NAK again. Turn on the ACK/NAK protocol by scanning the ACK/NAK
On bar code below. To turn off the protocol, scan ACK/NAK Off. Default =
ACK/NAK Off.

Trigger Modes
Manual/Serial Trigger
You can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trig-
ger command (see Trigger Commands on page 9-4). When in manual trigger
mode, the scanner scans until a bar code is read, or until the trigger is released.
When in serial mode, the scanner scans until a bar code has been read or until
the deactivate command is sent. In serial mode, the scanner can also be set to
turn itself off after a specified time has elapsed (see Read Time-Out, which fol-
lows).
* Manual/Serial Trigger
Read Time-Out
Use this selection to set a time-out (in milliseconds) of the scanner’s trigger
when using serial commands to trigger the scanner. Once the scanner has
timed out, you can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger or using a
serial trigger command. After scanning the Read Time-Out bar code, set the
time-out duration (from 0-300,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the
inside back cover, then scanning Save. Default = 30,000.
Read Time-Out
Automatic Trigger
The scanner scans continuously using internal LEDs to detect bar codes.
Automatic Trigger
3-5
Presentation Mode
Presentation Mode uses ambient light to detect bar codes. The LEDs are off for
ambient conditions until a change occurs in the scanner’s field of view. Then
the LEDS turn on automatically to read the code. If the light level in the room is
not high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly.
Presentation Mode
Continuous Illumination
Mode On
* Continuous Illumination
Mode Off
3-6
Scan the Hands Free Time-Out bar code, then scan the time-out duration
(from 0-300,000 milliseconds) from the inside back cover, and Save. Default =
5,000 ms.
Reread Delay
This sets the time period before the scanner can read the same bar code a sec-
ond time. Setting a reread delay protects against accidental rereads of the
same bar code. Longer delays are effective in minimizing accidental rereads at
POS (point of sale). Use shorter delays in applications where repetitive bar
code scanning is required. Default = Medium.
Reread Delay only works when in automatic trigger mode or presentation mode
(see page 3-5).
3-7
User-Specified Reread Delay
If you want to set your own length for the reread delay, scan the bar code below,
then set the delay (from 0-30,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the
inside back cover, then scanning Save.
Centering
Use Centering to narrow the scanner’s field of view to make sure the scanner
reads only those bar codes intended by the user. For instance, if multiple codes
are placed closely together, centering will insure that only the desired codes are
read.
If a bar code is not touched by a predefined window, it will not be decoded or
output by the scanner. If centering is turned on by scanning Centering On, the
scanner only reads codes that pass through the centering window you specify
using the Left of Centering Window, or Right of Centering Window bar
codes.
In the example below, the red line is the full scanner field of view and the white
boxed area is the centering window. The centering window has been set to
20% left and 30% right, as shown in the legend at the bottom. Since Bar Code
1 passes through the centering window, it will be read. Bar Code 2 does not
pass through the centering window, so it will not be read.
0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100%
Scan Centering On, then scan one of the following bar codes to change the left
or right of the centering window. Then scan the percent you want to shift the
centering window using digits on the inside back cover of this manual. Scan
Save. Default Centering = 40% for Left, 60% for Right.

Output Sequence Overview
Require Output Sequence
When turned off, the bar code data will be output to the host as the scanner
decodes it. When turned on, all output data must conform to an edited
sequence or the scanner will not transmit the output data to the host device.
Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection is
turned on.
Output Sequence Editor
This programming selection allows you to program the scanner to output data
(when scanning more than one symbol) in whatever order your application
requires, regardless of the order in which the bar codes are scanned. Reading
the Default Sequence symbol programs the scanner to the Universal values,
shown below. These are the defaults. Be certain you want to delete or clear all
formats before you read the Default Sequence symbol.
Note: To make Output Sequence Editor selections, you’ll need to know the
code I.D., code length, and character match(es) your application
requires. Use the Alphanumeric symbols (inside back cover) to read
these options.
Note: You must hold the trigger while reading each bar code in a sequence.

Output Sequence Example
In this example, you are scanning Code 93, Code 128, and Code 39 barcodes,
but you want the image scanner to output Code 39 1st, Code 128 2nd, and
Code 93 3rd, as shown below.
Note: Code 93 must be enabled to use this example.
A - Code 39
B - Code 128
C - Code 93
You would set up the sequence editor with the following command line:
SEQBLK62999941FF6A999942FF69999943FF
The breakdown of the command line is shown below:
SEQBLKsequence editor start command
62 code identifier for Code 39
9999 code length that must match for Code 39, 9999 = all lengths
41 start character match for Code 39, 41h = “A”
FF termination string for first code
6A code identifier for Code 128
9999 code length that must match for Code 128, 9999 = all lengths
42 start character match for Code 128, 42h = “B”
FF termination string for second code
69 code identifier for Code 93
9999 code length that must match for Code 93, 9999 = all lengths
43 start character match for Code 93, 43h = “C”
FF termination string for third code
To program the previous example using specific lengths, you would have to
count any programmed prefixes, suffixes, or formatted characters as part of the
length. If you use the example on page 3-12, but assume a <CR> suffix and
specific code lengths, you would use the following command line:
SEQBLK62001241FF6A001342FF69001243FF
3 - 12
The breakdown of the command line is shown below:
SEQBLK sequence editor start command
62 code identifier for Code 39

ger, aiming the scanner at a series of symbols, it reads unique symbols once,
beeping (if turned on) for each read. The scanner attempts to find and decode
new symbols as long as the trigger is pulled. When this programming selection
is turned Off, the scanner will only read the symbol closest to the aiming beam.

No Read
With No Read turned On, the scanner sends an “NR” to the host if you pull and
release the trigger without reading a code (e.g., bad bar code). If No Read is
turned Off, the “NR” will not be sent to the host.
On
* Off
If you want a different notation than “NR,” for example, “Error,” or “Bad Code,”
you can edit the output message using the Data Formatter (page 5-8). The hex
code for the No Read symbol is 9C.
Video Reverse
Video Reverse is used to allow the scanner to read bar codes that are inverted.
The “Off” bar code below is an example of this type of bar code.
Note: If additional menuing is required, Video Reverse must be disabled to read
the menu bar codes and then re-enabled after menuing is completed.

4 Data Editing
Prefix/Suffix Overview
When a bar code is scanned, additional information is sent to the host computer
along with the bar code data. This group of bar code data and additional,
user-defined data is called a “message string.” The selections in this section
are used to build the user-defined data into the message string.
Prefix and Suffix characters are data characters that can be sent before and
after scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all symbologies,
or only with specific symbologies. The following illustration shows the break-
down of a message string:
4-1
Step 3. Scan the 2 hex digits from the Programming Chart inside the back
cover of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies.
Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page
1252) on page A-2, for the prefix or suffix you wish to enter.
Step 5. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back
cover of this manual.
Step 6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 for every prefix or suffix character.
Step 7. To add the Code I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 0.
To add AIM I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 1.
To add a backslash (\), scan 5, C, 5, C.
Note: To add a backslash (\) as in Step 7, you must scan 5C twice – once to
create the leading backslash and then to create the backslash itself.
Step 8. Scan Save to exit and save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.
Repeat Steps 1-6 to add a prefix or suffix for another symbology.
4-2
Step 1. Scan the Clear One Prefix or Clear One Suffix symbol.
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in
Appendix A) for the symbology from which you want to clear the prefix
or suffix.
Step 3. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back
cover of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies.
Your change is automatically saved.

6 Symbologies
Introduction
This programming section contains the following menu selections. Refer to
Chapter 9 for settings and defaults.
6-1
All Symbologies
If you want to decode all the symbologies allowable for your scanner, scan the
All Symbologies On code. If on the other hand, you want to decode only a
particular symbology, scan All Symbologies Off followed by the On symbol for
that particular symbology.
All Symbologies On
Message Length
You are able to set the valid reading length of some of the bar code symbologies.
If the data length of the scanned bar code doesn’t match the valid reading length,
the scanner will issue an error beep. You may wish to set the same value for
minimum and maximum length to force the scanner to read fixed length bar code
data. This helps reduce the chances of a misread.
EXAMPLE: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 9-20 characters.
Min. length = 09 Max. length = 20
EXAMPLE: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.
Min. length = 15 Max. length = 15
For a value other than the minimum and maximum message length defaults,
scan the bar codes included in the explanation of the symbology, then scan the
digit value of the message length and Save bar codes on the Programming Chart
inside the back cover of this manual. The minimum and maximum lengths and
the defaults are included with the respective symbologies.

No Check Character indicates that the scanner reads and transmits bar code
data with or without a check character.
When Check Character is set to Validate and Transmit, the scanner will only
read Codabar bar codes printed with a check character, and will transmit this
character at the end of the scanned data.
When Check Character is set to Validate, but Don’t Transmit, the unit will only
read Codabar bar codes printed with a check character, but will not transmit the
check character with the scanned data.
* No Check Character
Codabar Concatenation
Codabar supports symbol concatenation. When you enable concatenation, the
scanner looks for a Codabar symbol having a “D” start character, adjacent to a
symbol having a “D” stop character. In this case the two messages are concat-
enated into one with the “D” characters omitted.

Code 39 Append
This function allows the scanner to append the data from several Code 39 bar
codes together before transmitting them to the host computer. When this func-
tion is enabled, the scanner stores those Code 39 bar codes that start with a
space (excluding the start and stop symbols), and does not immediately trans-
mit the data. The scanner stores the data in the order in which the bar codes
6-7
are read, deleting the first space from each. The scanner transmits the
appended data when it reads a Code 39 bar code that starts with a character
other than a space. Default = Off.

Resetting the Standard Product Defaults
If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your scanner, or you’ve
changed some options and want the standard product default settings restored,
scan the Standard Product Default Settings bar code below.
The Menu Commands starting on page 9-5 lists the standard product default
settings for each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the program-
ming pages).
EZConfig Introduction
EZConfig provides a wide range of PC-based programming functions that can
be performed on a scanner connected to your PC's COM port. EZConfig allows
you to download upgrades to the scanner's firmware, change programmed
parameters, and create and print programming bar codes. Using EZConfig, you
can even save/open the programming parameters for a scanner. This saved file
can be e-mailed or, if required, you can create a single bar code that contains
all the customized programming parameters and mail or fax that bar code to
any location. Users in other locations can scan the bar code to load in the cus-
tomized programming.
To communicate with a scanner, EZConfig requires that the PC have at least
one available serial communication port, or a serial port emulation using a
physical USB port. If you are using the serial port and RS232 cable, an external
power supply is required. When using a USB serial port emulation, only a USB
cable is required.
EZConfig Operations
The EZConfig software performs the following operations:
Scan Data
Scan Data allows you to scan bar codes and display the bar code data
in a window. Scan Data lets you send serial commands to the scanner
and receive scanner response that can be seen in the Scan Data win-
dow. The data displayed in the Scan Data window can either be saved
in a file or printed.
Configure
Configure displays the programming and configuration data of the
scanner. The scanner's programming and configuration data is
grouped into different categories. Each category is displayed as a tree
item under the "Configure" tree node in the application explorer. When
one of these tree nodes is clicked, the right-hand side is loaded with

the parameters' form belonging to that particular category. The "Con-
figure" tree option has all the programming and configuration parame-
ters specified for a scanner. You can set or modify these parameters
as required. You can later write the modified settings to the scanner,

Serial Programming Commands
Conventions
The following conventions are used for menu and query command descriptions:
parameterA label representing the actual value you should send as part of a
command.
[option] An optional part of a command.
{Data} Alternatives in a command.
bold Names of menus, menu commands, buttons, dialog boxes, and
windows that appear on the screen.
9-1
Query Commands
Several special characters can be used to query the device about its settings.
^ What is the default value for the setting(s).
Responses
The device responds to serial commands with one of three responses:
ACK Indicates a good command which has been processed.
ENQ Indicates an invalid Tag or SubTag command.
NAK Indicates the command was good, but the Data field entry was out of
the allowable range for this Tag and SubTag combination, e.g., an entry
for a minimum message length of 100 when the field will only accept 2
characters.
When responding, the device echoes back the command sequence with the
status character inserted directly before each of the punctuation marks (the
period, exclamation point, comma, or semicolon) in the command.

Examples of Query Commands
In the following examples, a bracketed notation [ ] depicts a non-displayable
response.
Example: Example #1:What is the range of possible values for Codabar
Coding Enable?
Enter: cbrena*.
Response: CBRENA0-1[ACK]
This response indicates that Codabar Coding Enable (CBRENA) has a range of
values from 0 to 1 (off and on).
Example: Example #2: What is the default value for Codabar Coding Enable?
Enter: cbrena^.
Response: CBRENA1[ACK]
This response indicates that the default setting for Codabar Coding Enable
(CBRENA) is 1, or on.
Example: Example #3: What is the device’s current setting for Codabar
Coding Enable?
Enter: cbrena?.
Response: CBRENA1[ACK]
This response indicates that the device’s Codabar Coding Enable (CBRENA) is
set to 1, or on.
Example: Example #4: What are the device’s settings for all Codabar
selections?
Enter: cbr?.
Response: CBRENA1[ACK],
SSX0[ACK],
CK20[ACK],
CCT1[ACK],
MIN2[ACK],
MAX60[ACK],
DFT[ACK].
This response indicates that the device’s Codabar Coding Enable (CBRENA) is
set to 1, or on;
the Start/Stop Character (SSX) is set to 0, or Don’t Transmit;
the Check Character (CK2) is set to 0, or Not Required;
concatenation (CCT) is set to 1, or Enabled;
the Minimum Message Length (MIN) is set to 2 characters;
the Maximum Message Length (MAX) is set to 60 characters;
and the Default setting (DFT) has no value.

Trigger Commands
You can activate and deactivate the scanner with serial trigger commands.
First, the scanner must be put in Manual/Serial Trigger Mode either by scanning
the Manual/Serial Trigger Mode bar code (page 3-5), or by sending the Manual/
Serial Menu Command (page 9-9). Once the scanner is in serial trigger mode,
the trigger is activated and deactivated by sending the following commands:
Activate:SYN T CR
Deactivate:SYN U CR
The scanner scans until a bar code has been read, until the deactivate com-
mand is sent, or until the serial time-out has been reached (see Read Time-
Out on page 3-5 for a description, and the serial command on page 9-9).
The chart on the following pages lists the factory default settings for each of the
menu commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the programming pages).

by a flexible retention tab. The interface cable is designed to be field replace-
able.
• Order replacement cables from Honeywell or from an authorized distributor.
• When ordering a replacement cable, specify the cable part number of the
original interface cable.
Troubleshooting
The scanner automatically performs self-tests whenever you turn it on. If your
scanner is not functioning properly, review the following Troubleshooting Guide
to try to isolate the problem.
Is the power on? Is the aiming beam line on?
If the aiming beam line isn’t illuminated, check that:
• The cable is connected properly.
• The host system power is on (if external power isn’t used).
• The trigger works.

Is the scanner having trouble reading your symbols?
If the scanner isn’t reading symbols well, check that the symbols:
• Aren’t smeared, rough, scratched, or exhibiting voids.
• Aren’t coated with frost or water droplets on the surface.
• Are enabled in the scanner or in the decoder to which the scanner connects.
Reprogram the scanner with the correct Plug and Play or Terminal selection
bar code. See Chapter 1 and Chapter 2.
• The scanner may not be programmed to output your bar code data properly.
For example, you scan “12345” and the host displays “A12345B.”
Reprogram the scanner with the proper symbology selections. See Chapter
6.

Limited Warranty
Honeywell International Inc. ("HII") warrants its products and optional accesso-
ries to be free from defects in materials and workmanship and to conform to
HII’s published specifications applicable to the products purchased at the time
of shipment. This warranty does not cover any HII product which is (i) improp-
erly installed or used; (ii) damaged by accident or negligence, including failure
to follow the proper maintenance, service, and cleaning schedule; or (iii) dam-
aged as a result of (A) modification or alteration by the purchaser or other party,
(B) excessive voltage or current supplied to or drawn from the interface connec-
tions, (C) static electricity or electro-static discharge, (D) operation under condi-
tions beyond the specified operating parameters, or (E) repair or service of the
product by anyone other than HII or its authorized representatives.
This warranty shall extend from the time of shipment for the duration published
by HII for the product at the time of purchase ("Warranty Period"). Any defective
product must be returned (at purchaser’s expense) during the Warranty Period
to HII factory or authorized service center for inspection. No product will be
accepted by HII without a Return Materials Authorization, which may be
obtained by contacting HII. In the event that the product is returned to HII or its
authorized service center within the Warranty Period and HII determines to its
satisfaction that the product is defective due to defects in materials or workman-
ship, HII, at its sole option, will either repair or replace the product without
charge, except for return shipping to HII.
EXCEPT AS MAY BE OTHERWISE PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE
FOREGOING WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER COVENANTS OR
WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, ORAL OR WRITTEN,
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MER-
CHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-
INFRINGEMENT.
HII’S RESPONSIBILITY AND PURCHASER’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER
THIS WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF THE
DEFECTIVE PRODUCT WITH NEW OR REFURBISHED PARTS. IN NO
12 - 3
EVENT SHALL HII BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSE-
QUENTIAL DAMAGES, AND, IN NO EVENT, SHALL ANY LIABILITY OF HII
ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY PRODUCT SOLD HEREUNDER
(WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY ARISES FROM A CLAIM BASED ON CON-
TRACT, WARRANTY, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) EXCEED THE ACTUAL
AMOUNT PAID TO HII FOR THE PRODUCT. THESE LIMITATIONS ON LIA-
BILITY SHALL REMAIN IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT EVEN WHEN HII MAY
HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH INJURIES, LOSSES,
OR DAMAGES. SOME STATES, PROVINCES, OR COUNTRIES DO NOT
ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATIONS OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSE-
QUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY
NOT APPLY TO YOU.
All provisions of this Limited Warranty are separate and severable, which
means that if any provision is held invalid and unenforceable, such determina-
tion shall not affect the validity of enforceability of the other provisions hereof.
Use of any peripherals not provided by the manufacturer may result in damage
not covered by this warranty. This includes but is not limited to: cables, power
supplies, cradles, and docking stations. HII extends these warranties only to the
first end-users of the products. These warranties are non-transferable.
The duration of the limited warranty for the Hyperion 1300g is five (5) years.
