3. Verify the scanner operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample
Symbols in the back of this manual.
The unit defaults to a USB PC Keyboard. Refer to page 2-2 for other USB
terminal settings.
1-2
Reading Techniques
The scanner has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam that corre-
sponds to the scanner’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam should be
centered over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for a good
read.
The aiming beam or pattern is smaller when the scanner is closer to the code
and larger when it is farther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or
elements (mil size) should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger
bars or elements (mil size) should be read farther from the unit. To read single
or multiple symbols (on a page or on an object), hold the scanner at an appro-
priate distance from the target, press the button, and center the aiming beam or
pattern on the symbol. If the code being scanned is highly reflective (e.g., lami-
nated), it may be necessary to tilt the code up 15° to 18° to prevent unwanted
reflection.
1-3
Setting Custom Defaults
You have the ability to create a set of menu commands as your own, custom
defaults. To do so, scan the Set Custom Defaults bar code below before
scannning the menu commands for your custom defaults. If a menu command
requires scanning numeric codes from the back cover, then a Save code, that
entire sequence will be saved to your custom defaults. When you have entered
all the commands you want to save for your custom defaults, scan the Save
Custom Defaults bar code.
1-4
Resetting the Factory Defaults
This selection erases all your settings and resets the scanner to the
! original factory defaults. It also disables all plugins.
If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your scanner, or you’ve
changed some options and want to restore the scanner to factory default set-
tings, first scan the Remove Custom Defaults bar code, then scan Activate
Defaults. This resets the scanner to the factory default settings.

If you want your system programmed for an IBM PC AT and compatibles key-
board wedge interface with a USA keyboard, scan the bar code below. Key-
board wedge is the default interface.
Note: The following bar code also programs a carriage return (CR) suffix.
2-1
USB IBM SurePos
Scan one of the following “Plug and Play” codes to program the scanner for an
IBM SurePos (USB handheld scanner) or IBM SurePos (USB tabletop scanner)
interface.
Note: After scanning one of these codes, you must power cycle the cash
register.
Each bar code above also programs the following suffixes for each symbology:

Keyboard Style
This programs keyboard styles, such as Caps Lock and Shift Lock. If you have
used Keyboard Conversion settings, they will override any of the following Key-
board Style settings. Default = Regular.
2 - 10
Regular is used when you normally have the Caps Lock key off.
* Regular
Caps Lock is used when you normally have the Caps Lock key on.
Caps Lock
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 . This selection
can only be used with systems that have an LED that notes the Caps Lock sta-
tus (AT keyboards).
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 Autocaps, but uses the Num-
Lock key to retrieve the current state of the Caps Lock.
2 - 11
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 Conversion
Alphabetic keyboard characters can be forced to be all upper case or all lower-
case. So if you have the following bar code: “abc569GK,” you can make the
output “ABC569GK” by scanning Convert All Characters to Upper Case, or to
“abc569gk” by scanning Convert All Characters to Lower Case.
These settings override Keyboard Style selections.
Note: If your interface is a keyboard wedge, first scan the menu code for
Automatic Caps Lock (page 2-11). Otherwise, your output may not be as
expected.
Default = Keyboard Conversion Off.
2 - 12
Default = Off.
Keyboard Modifiers
This modifies special keyboard features, such as CTRL+ ASCII codes and
Turbo Mode.
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.
Windows Mode Prefix/Suffix Off: The scanner sends key combinations for
ASCII control characters for values 00-1F, but it does not transmit any prefix or
suffix information.
Default = Control + ASCII Mode Off.
2 - 13
Turbo Mode: The scanner sends characters to a terminal faster. If the termi-
nal drops characters, do not use Turbo Mode. Default = Off
Turbo Mode On
Automatic Direct Connect Mode: This selection can be used if you have an
IBM AT style terminal and the system is dropping characters. Default = Off
2 - 14

Input/Output Settings
Power Up Beeper
The scanner can be programmed to beep when it’s powered up. Scan the Off
bar code(s) if you don’t want a power up beep. Default = Power Up Beeper On
- Scanner.
* Power Up Beeper On -
Scanner
Trigger Click
To hear an audible click every time the scanner button is pressed, scan the Trig-
ger Click On bar code below. Scan the Trigger Click Off code if you don’t
wish to hear the click. (This feature has no effect on serial or automatic trigger-
ing.) Default = Trigger Click Off.
Trigger Click On

Good Read and Error Indicators
Beeper – Good Read
The beeper may be programmed On or Off in response to a good read.
Turning this option off, only turns off the beeper response to a good read
indication. All error and menu beeps are still audible. Default = Beeper -
Good Read On.

Beeper Pitch – Good Read
The beeper pitch codes modify the pitch (frequency) of the beep the scan-
ner emits on a good read. Default = Medium.
* Normal Beep
Short Beep
3-3
LED – Good Read
The LED indicator can be programmed On or Off in response to a good
read. Default = On.
3-4
Good Read Delay
This sets the minimum amount of time before the scanner can read another
bar code. Default = 0 ms (No Delay).
* No Delay
3-5
Presentation Mode
Presentation Mode uses ambient light to detect bar codes. The LED dims until
a bar code is presented to the scanner, then the LED brightens to read the
code. If the light level in the room is not high enough, Presentation Mode may
not work properly.
Presentation Mode
Presentation Sensitivity
Presentation Sensitivity is a numeric range that increases or decreases the
scanner's reaction time to bar code presentation. To set the sensitivity,
scan the Sensitivity bar code, then scan the degree of sensitivity (from 0-
20) from the inside back cover, and Save. 0 is the most sensitive setting,
and 20 is the least sensitive. Default = 1.
Sensitivity
Presentation Centering
Use Presentation Centering to narrow the scanner’s field of view when it is
in the stand to make sure the scanner reads only those bar codes intended
by the user. For instance, if multiple codes are placed closely together,
Presentation Centering will insure that only the desired codes are read.
Note: To adjust centering when the scanner is hand-held, see
Centering (page 3-10).
If a bar code is not touched by a predefined window, it will not be decoded
or output by the scanner. If Presentation Centering is turned on by scan-
ning Presentation Centering On, the scanner only reads codes that pass
through the centering window you specify using the Top of Presentation
Centering Window, Bottom of Presentation Centering Window, Left,
and Right of Presentation Centering Window bar codes.
3-6
In the example below, the white box is the centering window. The centering
window has been set to 20% left, 30% right, 8% top, and 25% 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.

Hands Free Time-Out
The Scan Stand and Presentation Modes are referred to as “hands free”
modes. If the scanner’s button is pressed when using a hands free mode, the
scanner changes to manual trigger mode. You can set the time the scanner
should remain in manual trigger mode by setting the Hands Free Time-Out.
Once the time-out value is reached, (if there have been no further button
presses) the scanner reverts to the original hands free mode.
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.
Use shorter delays in applications where repetitive bar code scanning is
required. Reread Delay only works when in Presentation Mode (see page 3-6).
Default = Medium.
3-9
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.
Scanner Time-Out
Scanner Time-Out powers down the scanner after the unit has been idle for the
specified time. To prevent the scanner from powering down, set this time-out to
0, or no timer. Scan Scanner Time-Out, then set the time-out by scanning dig-
its (from 0 - 999,999 ms) from the inside back cover, then scanning Save.
Default = 1 ms.
Scanner Time-Out
Centering
Use Centering to narrow the scanner’s field of view to make sure that when the
scanner is hand-held, it 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.
Note: To adjust centering when the scanner is in the stand, see Presentation
Centering (page 3-6).
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 Top of Centering Window, Bottom of Centering Window, Left, and
Right of Centering Window bar codes.
3 - 10
In the example below, the white box is the centering window. The centering win-
dow has been set to 20% left, 30% right, 8% top, and 25% 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.

Scan Centering On, then scan one of the following bar codes to change the
top, bottom, 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 Top and Left, 60% for Bot-
tom and Right.

If you want a different notation than “NR,” for example, “Error,” or “Bad Code,”
you can edit the output message (see Data Formatting beginning on page 5-1).
The hex code for the No Read symbol is 9C.
3 - 12
Video Reverse
Video Reverse is used to allow the scanner to read bar codes that are inverted.
The Video Reverse Off bar code below is an example of this type of bar code.
Scan Video Reverse Only to read only inverted bar codes. Scan Video
Reverse and Standard Bar Codes to read both types of codes.
Note: After scanning Video Reverse Only, menu bar codes cannot be read.
You must scan Video Reverse Off or Video Reverse and Standard Bar
Codes in order to read menu bar codes.
Note: Images downloaded from the unit are not reversed. This is a setting for
decoding only.

Working Orientation
Some bar codes are direction-sensitive. For example, KIX codes and OCR can
misread when scanned sideways or upside down. Use the working orientation
settings if your direction-sensitive codes will not usually be presented upright to
the scanner. Default = Upright.

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
symbology to which you want to apply the prefix or suffix. For
example, for Code 128, Code ID is “j” and Hex ID is “6A”.
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), beginning on page A-4, 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 the Symbology Chart, beginning on page A-1) 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.

5-8 for further information.)
Step 3. Terminal Type
Refer to Terminal ID Table (page 5-4) and locate the Terminal ID
number for your PC. Scan three numeric bar codes on the inside back
cover to program the scanner for your terminal ID (you must enter 3
digits). For example, scan 0 0 3 for an AT wedge.
Note: The wildcard for all terminal types is 099.
Step 4. Code I.D.
In the Symbology Chart, beginning on page A-1, find the symbology to
which you want to apply the data format. Locate the Hex value for that
symbology and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart
inside the back cover of this manual.
Note: If you are creating a data format for Batch Mode Quantity, use 35
for the Code I.D.
Step 5. Length
Specify what length (up to 9999 characters) of data will be acceptable
for this symbology. Scan the four digit data length from the
Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. (Note: 50
characters is entered as 0050. 9999 is a universal number, indicating
all lengths.)
Step 6. Editor Commands
Refer to Data Format Editor Commands (page 5-4). Scan the symbols
that represent the command you want to enter. 94 alphanumeric
characters may be entered for each symbology data format.
Step 7. Scan Save to save your data format, or Discard to exit without saving
your changes.

symbol. GS1 data carriers include UPC-A and UPC-E, EAN-13 and EAN-8,
ITF-14, GS1-128, and GS1-128 DataBar and GS1 Composites. (Any applica-
tion that accepts GS1 data can be simplified since it only needs to recognize
one data carrier type.)
If GS1-128 Emulation is scanned, all retail codes (U.P.C., UPC-E, EAN8,
EAN13) are expanded out to 16 digits. If the AIM ID is enabled, the value will be
the GS1-128 AIM ID, ]C1 (see Symbology Chart on page A-1).
If GS1 DataBar Emulation is scanned, all retail codes (U.P.C., UPC-E, EAN8,
EAN13) are expanded out to 16 digits. If the AIM ID is enabled, the value will be
the GS1-DataBar AIM ID, ]em (see Symbology Chart on page A-1).
If GS1 Code Expansion Off is scanned, retail code expansion is disabled, and
UPC-E expansion is controlled by the UPC-E0 Expand (page 6-25) setting. If
the AIM ID is enabled, the value will be the GS1-128 AIM ID, ]C1 (see

Maintenance
Repairs
Repairs and/or upgrades are not to be performed on this product. These ser-
vices are to be performed only by an authorized service center (see Customer
Support on page 11-1).
Maintenance
Your device provides reliable and efficient operation with a minimum of care.
Although specific maintenance is not required, the following periodic checks
ensure dependable operation:
! Caution:
Do not submerge the scanner in water. The scanner’s
housing is not watertight.
Replacing Cables
The standard interface cable is attached to the scanner with an 10-pin modular
connector. When properly seated, the connector is held in the scanner’s handle
by a flexible retention tab. The interface cable is designed to be field replace-
able.
10 - 1
• Order replacement cables from Youjie or from an authorized distributor.
• When ordering a replacement cable, specify the cable part number of the
original interface cable.
10 - 2
• You need to program a suffix. Programming a suffix enables the scanner
to output the bar code data plus the key you need (such as “CR”) to enter
the data into your application. Refer to Prefix/Suffix Overview beginning
on page 4-1 for further information.
Does the scanner read the bar code incorrectly?
If the scanner reads a bar code, but the data is not displayed correctly on
the host screen:
• The scanner may not be programmed for the appropriate terminal
interface.
For example, you scan “12345” and the host displays “@es%.”
Reprogram the scanner with the correct Plug and Play bar code. See
Programming the Interface beginning on page 2-1.
• 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.
The scanner won’t read your bar code at all.
1. Scan the sample bar codes in the back of this manual. If the scanner
reads the sample bar codes, check that your bar code is readable.
Verify that your bar code symbology is enabled (see Chapter 6).
If the scanner still can’t read the sample bar codes, scan All Symbologies
(page 6-2).
If you aren’t sure what programming options have been set in the scanner,
or if you want the factory default settings restored, refer to Resetting the
Factory Defaults on page 1-5.
