Laser Safety
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions in this manual, it may cause interference to
radio communications. The equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class A computing device pursuant to EN55022 and 47 CFR, Part 2 and Part 15
of FCC Rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against
interference when operated in a commercial environment.
Radiant Energy: The laser scanner uses one low-power visible laser diodes operating at
650nm in an opto-mechanical scanner resulting in less than 3.9μW radiated power as
observed through a 7mm aperture and averaged over 10 seconds.
Do not attempt to remove the protective housing of the scanner, as unscanned laser light
with a peak output up to 0.8mW would be accessible inside.
Laser Light Viewing: The scan window is the only aperture through which laser light may
be observed from this product. A failure of the scanner motor, while the laser diode
continues to emit a laser beam, may cause emission levels to exceed those for safe
operation. The scanner has safeguards to prevent this occurrence. If, however, a
stationary laser beam is emitted, the failing scanner should be disconnected from its
power source immediately.
Adjustments: Do not attempt any adjustments or alteration of this product. Do not

remove the protective housing of the scanner. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Optical: The use of optical instruments with this product will increase the eye hazard.
Optical instruments include binoculars, magnifying glasses, and microscopes but do not
include normal eye glasses worn by the user.
CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than

those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
For CE-Countries
This scanner is in conformity with CE standards. Please note that an approved, CE-marked
power supply unit should be used in order to maintain CE conformance.

PROGRAMMING GUIDE
Introduction to Scanner Configuration

Scanning a series of programming barcode labels can configure the series scanners.
This allows decoding options and interface protocols to be tailored to a specific
application. The configuration is stored in non-volatile memory and will not be lost by
removing power from the scanner.
The scanner must be properly powered before programming. For RS-232C type
scanners, an external power adapter must be used to supply DC power to the scanner.
If a keyboard emulation type scanner is used with an IBM PC/XT/ AT, PS/2 or any fully
compatible computers, power will be drawn from the keyboard port. No external
power adapter is required. If keyboard emulation type scanner is used with any other
non IBM PC compatible computers, an external power adapter may be needed.
During the programming mode, the laser scanner will acknowledge a good and valid
reading with a short beep. It will give long beeps or remain silent for either an invalid
or bad reading.
Programmable options are divided into four groups. The first group includes the
options that show the general behavior of the laser scanner. The second group
governs the operation of different interfaces, RS-232 serial ports, keyboard, and USB.
The third group sets the decoding parameters for each barcode symbology. The last
group is about more advanced data formatting.

object close to the scanner window. The Blink mode is included to reduce power
consumption and to extend scanner life. Scan barcodes to set the time for switching to
blink mode when the scanner is idle.

PROGRAMMING GUIDE
Connection to an Omnidirectional Scanner

Instead of connecting to a host, sometimes the handheld scanner is to be connected to
the AUX port of an omnidirectional scanner and transmit data to the host system via
this omnidirectional scanner. Such application is not uncommon in places like
hypermarkets and home improvement shops where there are products too heavy or
bulky to be put on the counter and need a handheld scanner to read their barcodes.
In most cases, the auxiliary input port’s data transmission format would follow the
main output format of the omnidirectional scanner, including barcode symbologies and
related parameters. For example, if the handheld scanner can read Codabar while the
omnidirectional scanner can not, the handheld scanner would decode a Codabar
barcode without transmitting the data. To complete the data transmission process, you
have to re-program the omnidirectional scanner and enable Codabar decoding
capability.
The following barcode allows you to enable and disable the AUX port. For more
application and connection instructions, refer to the manual of the omnidirectional
scanner.

Appendix 2: Barcode Length Setting

Introduction
The length of a barcode is the number of characters it contains, including check digits.
As listed in the Default Parameters section, each barcode type has different default
length. You may change the setting by the following procedure.
To set up barcode length, the paramours to be determined are barcode type and the
desired barcode length. Barcode length is consisted of 2 digits. For numbers smaller
than 10, you need to add a “0” in the front.
Example
If the barcode length is 4 to 12 digits, the steps would be as below:
Start Set up barcode length End
Set up minimum Set up maximum

Start of Configuration End of Configuration
barcode length barcode length
Scan the “Start of Scan the Set the “Max” Scan the “Set”
configuration” barcode “Min“ barcode barcode barcode to save this
setting
Read the “Full ASCII Scan the first Set up the first Scan the “End of
code 39” barcode digit: 0 digit: 1 configuration”
barcode
Turn to the page of the Scan the second Set up the

barcode type to be set digit: 4 second digit: 2
up
Use the ASCII table (Appendix 4) to set up barcode length. Be sure to

enable the full ASCII code 39 option before you start and read the “Set”
label to set your choice into memory.

PROGRAMMING GUIDE
Appendix 3: Multi-Barcode Editor

Introduction
The multi-barcode editor function allows users to set up the sequence of barcode data
transmission. After the configuration, the scanner would transmit data in the pre-
programmed sequence even if the user doesn’t scan barcodes in the correct order.
Users can set up the sequence of up to 5 pieces of barcode data.
The three parameters to be programmed are: barcode type, barcode length and check
digit.
Set up as “0” if the barcode length is not required; set up as “NUL” is there is no need
to check the first digit of the barcode value.
Use the ASCII table (Appendix 4) to set up barcode length and first digit
checkup. Be sure to enable the full ASCII code 39 option before you start
and read the “Set” label to set your choice into memory.

PROGRAMMING GUIDE
Example
If the barcode data transmission sequence and requirements are as below:
The 1st barcode symbology The 2nd barcode symbology

Barcode type Code 128 Barcode type Code 39
Barcode length 9 Barcode length 12
No check on the first digit is
First digit A First digit
