1 Getting Started

The IMAGETEAM™ 4600 and 4800 mark a new performance level for hand
held area imagers. The IT4600/4800 hand held area imagers are powered by
HHP’s AdaptusTM technology. The performance of Adaptus technology delivers
aggressive read rates and depths of field on 1D, stacked linear, and matrix
codes. This aggressiveness applies even in challenging reading environments
where low lighting conditions and poor quality might make it difficult to read bar
codes. Adaptus technology ensures your investment will continue to supply
years of use by reading any bar codes you require, now or in the future.
Designed for today’s demanding retail and commercial environments, the
IT4600 offers superior image quality, speed, durability, and the ability to read
poor quality bar codes. The IT4600 is comfortable to hold, easy to use, rugged,
and excellent for retail applications, as well as for all general scanning and
imaging applications.
The IT4800 hand held industrial area imager is the first industrial class area
imager powered by Adaptus technology. The IT4800 has a similar ergonomic
design as the IT4600, but has a more rugged housing, and is built to withstand
your toughest industrial applications.
About This Manual
This User’s Guide provides installation and programming instructions for the
IMAGETEAM 4600/4800. Product specifications, dimensions, warranty, and
customer support information are also included.
HHP’s bar code imagers are factory programmed for the most common terminal
and communications settings. If you need to change these settings,
programming is accomplished by scanning the bar codes in this guide.
An asterisk (*) next to an option indicates the default setting.
Unpacking the Imager
After you open the shipping carton containing the IT4600/4800, take the
following steps:

• Check to make sure everything you ordered is present.

• Save the shipping container for later storage or shipping.
• Check for damage during shipment. Report damage immediately to the
carrier who delivered the carton.

Connecting the Imager When Powered by Host
(Keyboard Wedge)
A imager can be connected between the keyboard and PC as a “keyboard
wedge,” plugged into the serial port, or connected to a portable data terminal in
wand emulation or non decoded output mode. The following is an example of a
keyboard wedge connection:
1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer.

2. Disconnect the keyboard cable

from the back of the terminal/
computer.

Disconnect

3. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the imager and to the terminal/
computer.

1 2

4. Turn the terminal/computer power back on. The imager beeps.

5. Verify the imager operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample
Symbols in the back of this manual. The imager beeps once.

1-4 IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide

Reading Techniques
The imager has a view finder that projects a bright red or green aiming beam that
corresponds to the imager’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.

Linear bar code 2D Matrix symbol

The aiming beam is smaller when the imager 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 imager at an appropriate distance from the
target, pull the trigger, and center the aiming beam on the symbol. If the code
being scanned is highly reflective (e.g., laminated), it may be necessary to tilt the
code up 15° to 18° to prevent unwanted reflection.

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 1-5

Plug and Play
Plug and Play bar codes provide instant imager set up for commonly used
interfaces.
Note: After you scan one of the codes, power cycle the host terminal to have the
interface in effect.

Keyboard Wedge
Note: This interface applies to the 4600/4800SR050 model.
IT4600/4800 imagers are factory programmed for a keyboard wedge interface to
an IBM PC AT with a USA keyboard. If this is your interface and you do not need
to modify the settings, skip to Chapter 3 - Output.
If you programmed the imager for a different terminal interface and you want to
change to an IBM PC AT and compatibles keyboard wedge interface, scan the
bar code below.

IBM PC AT and Compatibles

with CR suffix

Laptop Direct Connect

Note: This interface applies to the 4600/4800SR050 model.
For most laptops, scanning the Laptop Direct Connect bar code allows
operation of the scanner in parallel with the integral keyboard. The following
Laptop Direct Connect bar code also programs a carriage return (CR) suffix, and
turns on Emulate External Keyboard (page 2-7).

PC or terminal. The following RS-232 Interface bar code also programs a
carriage return (CR) and a line feed (LF) suffix, baud rate, and data format as
indicated below:

Option Setting
Baud Rate 38400 bps
Data Format 8 data bits, no parity bit, 1 stop bit

RS-232 Interface

Wand Emulation Plug & Play

Note: The Wand Emulation interfaces apply to the 4600/4800SR050 model.
In Wand Emulation mode, the imager decodes the bar code then sends data in
the same format as a wand imager. The Code 39 Format converts all
symbologies to Code 39.
The Same Code Format transmits UPC, EAN, Code 128 and Interleaved 2 of 5
without any changes, but converts all other symbologies to Code 39. 2D
symbologies are converted to Code 128.
The Wand Emulation Plug & Play Code 39 Format bar code below sets the
terminal ID to 61. The Wand Emulation Plug & Play Same Code Format bar
code sets the terminal ID to 64. These Plug & Play bar codes also set the
Transmission Rate to 25 inches per second, Output Polarity to black high, and
Idle State to high. (If you want to change the terminal ID only, without changing
any other imager settings, please refer to Wand Emulation Connection on page
2-13.)

RS-232 Receiver Timeout
The unit stays awake to receive data until the RS-232 Receiver Timeout expires.
A manual or serial trigger resets the timeout. When an RS-232 receiver is
sleeping, a character may be sent to wake up the receiver and reset the timeout.
A transaction on the CTS line will also wake up the receiver. The receiver takes
300 milliseconds to completely come up. Change the RS-232 receiver timeout
by scanning the bar code below, then scanning digits from the inside back cover
of this manual, then scanning Save. The range is 0 to 300 seconds. Default =
0 seconds (no timeout - always on).

Wand Emulation Connection
The Wand Emulation Connection bar codes should be used if you want to
change the terminal ID only, without changing any other imager settings. We
recommend using Wand Emulation Plug & Play bar codes to program your
imager to emulate a wand reader. The Wand Emulation Plug & Play bar codes
change other parameters, in addition to changing the terminal ID. Please refer
to Wand Emulation Plug & Play on page 1-7 for further information.
In Wand Emulation mode, the imager decodes the bar code then sends data in
the same format as a wand imager. The Code 39 Format converts all
symbologies to Code 39.
The Same Code Format transmits UPC, EAN, Code 128 and Interleaved 2 of 5
without any changes, but converts all other symbologies to Code 39. 2D
symbologies are converted to Code 128.
The Code 39 Format bar code below sets the terminal ID to 61, and the Same
Code Format bar code sets the terminal ID to 64. Default = Code 39 Format.

The number of beeps of a good read can be programmed from 1 - 9. The same
number of beeps will be applied to the beeper and LED in response to a good
read. For example, if you program this option to have five beeps, there will be
five beeps and five LED flashes in response to a good read. The beeps and LED
flashes are in sync with one another. To change the number of beeps, scan the
bar code below and then scan a digit (1-9) bar code and the Save bar code on
the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. Default = One.

Trigger Modes

Manual/Serial Trigger
You can activate the imager either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trigger
command (see Trigger Commands on page 11-4). When in manual trigger
mode, the imager scans until a bar code is read, or until the trigger is released.

3-4 IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide

When in serial mode, the imager scans until a bar code has been read or until
the deactivate command is sent. In serial mode, the imager can also be set to
turn itself off after a specified time has elapsed (see Read Time Out, which
follows).

* Manual/Serial Trigger

Read Time Out

Use this selection to set a time out (in milliseconds) of the imager’s trigger when
using serial commands to trigger the imager, or if the imager is in manual trigger
mode. Once the imager has timed out, you can activate the imager 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 = 0
(infinite, or no time out).

Read Time Out

Manual Trigger, Low Power

The imager powers down until the trigger is pulled. When the trigger is pulled,
the imager powers up and operates until there is no triggering for the time set
with the Low Power Time Out bar code below. There is a delay of up to one
second in operation when the imager is first triggered, but there is no delay when
operating in low power time out mode.

Manual Trigger, Low Power

Note: Manual Trigger, Low Power cannot be used with keyboard wedge
applications.

Low Power Time Out Timer

Scan the Low Power Time Out bar code to change the time out duration (in
seconds). Then scan the time out duration (from 0-300 seconds) from the inside
back cover, and Save. Default = 120 seconds.

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 3-5

If the unit remains idle during the low power time out interval, the unit goes into
low power mode. Whenever the trigger is enabled, the low power time out timer
is reset.

Low Power Time Out

Note: This time out does not begin until the imager time out setting has expired.

Scan Stand Mode

When a unit is in Scan Stand mode, it remains idle as long as it sees the Scan
Stand symbol. (See Scan Stand Symbol that follows.) When a different code
is presented, the Imager is triggered to read the new code.

Note:The imager automatically adjusts the illumination LEDs to the lowest light
level possible to maintain a good lock on the Scan Stand symbol. When a
symbol is presented, the imager’s light levels adjust to the saved setting (see
LED Power Level on page 3-8).

Scan Stand Mode

Scan Stand Symbol

Note: Scan Stand mode does not work when scanner is programmed for the
HHLC interface.
When a unit is in Scan Stand mode, the LEDs shine at the Scan Stand symbol
on the base of the stand which tells it to remain idle. When the Scan Stand
symbol is covered, the imager turns the LEDs on at the configured power level
(Default High) and attempts to find and decode bar codes in its field of view.

Scan Stand Symbol

Presentation Mode
Note: Presentation mode does not work when a imager is programmed for an
HHLC interface.

3-6 IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide

This programs the imager to work in Presentation mode. The LEDs are either off
or at the lowest power for ambient conditions until a bar code is presented to the
imager. Then the LEDs turn on automatically to read the code. Presentation
Mode uses ambient light to detect the bar codes. If the light level in the room is
not high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly.

Presentation Mode

Hands Free Time Out

The Scan Stand and Presentation Modes are referred to as “hands free” modes.
If the imager’s trigger is pulled when using a hands free mode, the imager
changes to manual trigger mode. You can set the time the imager 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 trigger pulls) the imager 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.

LED Power Level
This selection allows you to adjust LED and aimer brightness. Off is used when
no illumination is needed. Low is used if low illumination is sufficient. High (the
default) is the brightest setting.

If you have an aimer delay programmed (see Aimer Delay on page 3-9), the
aimer will be at 100% power during the delay, regardless of the LED Power
Level.

Note: If you scan the Off bar code, both the aimer and illumination lights turn off,
making it impossible to scan bar codes in low light. To turn the LED
Power Level back on, move to a brightly lit area and scan either the Low
or the High bar code below.

Imager Time Out

Aimer Delay
The aimer delay allows a delay time for the operator to aim the imager before the
picture is taken. Use these codes to set the time between when the trigger is
pulled and when the picture is taken. During the delay time, the aiming light will
appear, but the LEDs won’t turn on until the delay time is over.

Aimer Mode
This feature allows you to lower peak current during scanning by alternating the
aimer and illumination LEDs. When the Interlaced bar code is scanned, the
aimer and illumination LEDs are not allowed to be on at the same time. While
this does limit peak current during scanning, the scanner performance may be
slower. When the Concurrent bar code is scanned, the aimer and illumination
LEDs are allowed to light at the same time. Select Off if you don’t want to use
either aimer mode.

Centering
Use Centering to narrow the imager’s field of view to make sure the imager 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. (Centering can be used in conjunction with Aimer Delay, page 3-9, for the
most error-free operation in applications where multiple codes are spaced
closely together. Using the Aimer Delay and Centering features, the imager can
emulate the operation of older systems, such as linear laser bar code imagers.)

In the example below, the gray area is the full imager field of view and the white
area is the centering window. Bar Code 1 will not be read, while Bar Code 2 will
be.
Bar Code 1

Bar Code 2

The default centering window is a 60 pixel square area in the center of the
imager’s field of view. The following diagram illustrates the default top, bottom,
left, and right pixel positions, measured from the top and the left side of the
imager’s field of view, which is 640 by 480 pixels.

The centering window must intersect the center of the image. If a bar code is not
within the predefined window, it will not be decoded or output by the imager. If
centering is turned on by scanning Centering On, the imager only reads codes
that intersect the centering window you specify using the Top, Bottom, Left, or
Right bar codes.
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 Bottom and
Right.

Decode Search Mode
There are four selectable decode (scanning) modes:
Full Omnidirectional - Searches for bar code features beginning at the center
of an image, and searches to the image’s limits. This mode reads all
symbologies (including OCR), in any orientation. The Full Omnidirectional
search is very thorough which may slow performance time.
Note: This search mode is the default setting for the IT4800 and IT4600/48002D
imagers.

Full Omnidirectional

Quick Omnidirectional - This is an abbreviated search for bar code features

around the center region of an image. This mode quickly reads all symbologies
in any orientation. The Quick Omnidirectional mode may miss some off-center
symbols, as well as larger Data Matrix and QR Code symbols.

Quick Omnidirectional

Advanced Linear Decoding - Performs quick horizontal linear scans in a center

band of the image. This mode is not omnidirectional, but does quickly read linear
and stacked bar codes. Advanced Linear Decoding cannot read 2D, OCR, or
Postal symbols.
Note: This search mode is the default setting for the IT4600/4800 point-and-
shoot PDF imagers.

Output Sequence Overview
Require Output Sequence
When turned off, the bar code data will be output to the host as the Imager
decodes it. When turned on, all output data must conform to an edited sequence
or the Imager 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 Imager 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 Imager 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.
To Add an Output Sequence
1. Scan the Enter Sequence symbol (see Multiple Symbols, page 3-16).
2. Code I.D.
On the Symbology Chart on page A-1, find the symbology to which you want
to apply the output sequence format. Locate the Hex value for that symbol-
ogy and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart (inside back
cover).
3. Length
Specify what length (up to 9999 characters) of data output will be acceptable
for this symbology. Scan the four digit data length from the Programming
Chart. (Note: 50 characters is entered as 0050. 9999 is a universal num-
ber, indicating all lengths.)
4. Character Match Sequences
On the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-3, find the Hex
value that represents the character(s) you want to match. Use the Program-
ming Chart to read the alphanumeric combination that represents the ASCII
characters. (99 is the Universal number, indicating all characters.)
5. End Output Sequence Editor
Scan F F to enter an Output Sequence for an additional symbology, or Save
to save your entries.

Output Sequence Example
In this example, you are scanning Code 93, Code 128, and Code 39 bar codes,
but you want the imager 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:

Multiple Symbols
Note: This feature does not work when the Imager is in Low Power mode.
When this programming selection is turned On, it allows you to read multiple
symbols with a single pull of the Imager’s trigger. If you press and hold the
trigger, aiming the Imager at a series of symbols, it reads unique symbols once,
beeping (if turned on) for each read. The imager attempts to find and decode
new symbols as long as the trigger is pulled. When this programming selection
is turned Off, the Imager will only read the symbol closest to the aiming beam.

* Off

No Read
With No Read turned On, the Imager notifies you if a code cannot be read. If
using a Quick*View Scan Data Window, an “NR” appears when a code cannot
be read. If No Read is turned Off, the “NR” will not appear.

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 5-5). The hex
code for the No Read symbol is 9C.

Print Weight
Print Weight is used to adjust the way the imager reads Matrix symbols. If a
imager will be seeing consistently heavily printed matrix symbols, then a print
weight of 6 may improve the reading performance. For consistently light printing,
a print weight of 2 may help. After scanning the Set Print Weight bar code, set
the print weight (from 1-7) by scanning digits from the inside back cover, then
scanning Save. Default = 4.

Video Reverse
Video Reverse is used to allow the imager to read bar codes that are inverted.
The “Off” bar code below is an example of this type of bar code. If additional
menuing is required, Video Reverse must be disabled to read the menu bar
codes and then re-enabled after menuing is completed.

Note: Images downloaded from the unit will not be reversed. This is a setting for
decoding only.

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 breakdown
of a message string:

Prefix Scanned Data Suffix

1-11 variable length 1-11
alpha numeric alpha numeric
characters characters

Points to Keep In Mind

• It is not necessary to build a message string. The selections in this chapter
are only used if you wish to alter the default settings. Default prefix = None.
Default suffix = None.
• A prefix or suffix may be added or cleared from one symbology or all
symbologies.
• You can add any prefix or suffix from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page
1252) on page A-3, plus Code I.D. and AIM I.D.
• You can string together several entries for several symbologies at one time.
• Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to appear on
the output.

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 4-1

To Add a Prefix or Suffix:
Step 1. Scan the Add Prefix or Add Suffix symbol (page 4-4).
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in
Appendix A) for the 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) on page A-3, 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.

Example: Add a Suffix to a specific symbology

To send a CR (carriage return)Suffix for UPC only:
Step 1. Scan Add Suffix.
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in
Appendix A) for UPC.
Step 3. Scan 6, 3 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this
manual.
Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page
1252) on page A-3, for the CR (carriage return).
Step 5. Scan 0, D from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this
manual.
Step 6. Scan Save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.

4-2 IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide

To Clear One or All Prefixes or Suffixes:
You can clear a single prefix or suffix, or clear all prefixes/suffixes for a
symbology. When you Clear One Prefix (Suffix), the specific character you
select is deleted from the symbology you want. When you Clear All Prefixes
(Suffixes), all the prefixes or suffixes for a symbology are deleted.
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.

To Add a Carriage Return Suffix to all Symbologies

Intercharacter, Interfunction, and Intermessage Delays
Some terminals drop information (characters) if data comes through too quickly.
Intercharacter, interfunction, and intermessage delays slow the transmission of
data, increasing data integrity.
Each delay is composed of a 5 millisecond step. You can program up to 99 steps
(of 5 ms each) for a range of 0-495 ms.

Intercharacter Delay
An intercharacter delay of up to 495 milliseconds may be placed between the
transmission of each character of scanned data. Scan the Intercharacter Delay
bar code below, then scan the number of milliseconds and the SAVE bar code
using the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual.

5 Data Formatting

Data Format Editor Introduction

You may use the Data Format Editor to change the imager’s output. For
example, you can use the Data Format Editor to insert characters at certain
points in bar code data as it is scanned. The selections in the following pages
are used only if you wish to alter the output. Default Data Format setting = None.
Normally, when you scan a bar code, it gets outputted automatically; however
when you do a format, you must use a “send” command (see Send Commands
on page 5-2) within the format program to output data.
Multiple formats may be programmed into the imager. They are stacked in the
order in which they are entered. However, the following list presents the order
in which formats are applied:
1. Specific Term ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length
2. Specific Term ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length
3. Specific Term ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length
4. Specific Term ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length
5. Universal Term ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length
6. Universal Term ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length
7. Universal Term ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length
8. Universal Term ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length
If you have changed data format settings, and wish to clear all formats and return
to the factory defaults, scan the Default Data Format code on page 5-5.

To Add a Data Format

Step 1. Scan the Enter Data Format symbol (page 5-5).
Step 2. Primary/Alternate Format
Determine if this will be your primary data format, or one of 3 alternate
formats. (Alternate formats allow you “single shot” capability to scan
one bar code using a different data format. After the one bar code has
been read, the imager reverts to the primary data format. See page 5-
6.) If you are programming the primary format, scan 0 using the Pro-
gramming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. If you are pro-
gramming an alternate format, scan 1, 2, or 3, depending on the
alternate format you are programming.
Step 3. Terminal Type
Refer to Supported Terminals (page 2-2) and locate the Terminal ID
number for your PC. Scan three numeric bar codes on the inside back
cover to program the imager for your terminal ID (you must enter 3 dig-
its). For example, scan 0 0 3 for an AT wedge.

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 5-1

Note: The wildcard for all terminal types is 099.
Step 4. Code I.D.
In Appendix A, 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.
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 Program-
ming 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 5-2). Scan the symbols
that represent the command you want to enter. 94 alphanumeric char-
acters may be entered for each symbology data format.
Step 7. Scan Save from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this
manual to save your entries.

Other Programming Selections

• Clear One Data Format
This deletes one data format for one symbology. If you are clearing the
primary format, scan 0 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of
this manual. If you are clearing an alternate format, scan 1, 2, or 3, depending
on the alternate format you are clearing. Scan the Terminal Type and Code
I.D. (see Supported Terminals on page 2-2), and the bar code data length for
the specific data format that you want to delete. All other formats remain
unaffected.
• Save from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual
This exits, saving any Data Format changes.
• Discard from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual
This exits without saving any Data Format changes.

Secondary RS-232 Connection
All communication parameters between the imager and terminal must match for
correct data transfer through the serial port using RS-232 protocol.
RS-232 programmable selections are used by both the primary and secondary
interfaces. Changing an RS-232 parameter (e.g., baud rate or parity), while in
primary or secondary mode will affect both interfaces. If you want to change the
RS-232 settings, refer to Connecting the Imager with RS-232 Serial Port, page
2-9.

RS-232 Interface

Secondary Code 39 Wand Emulation

In Wand Emulation mode, the imager decodes the bar code then sends data in
the same format as a wand imager. The Code 39 Format converts all
symbologies to Code 39. The Same Code Format transmits UPC, EAN, Code
128 and Interleaved 2 of 5 without any changes, but converts all other
symbologies to Code 39. These codes set the transmission rate to 25 inches per
second and the output polarity to black, high. Default = Code 39 Format.

Secondary Trigger Mode

Manual/Serial Trigger
You can activate the imager either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trigger
command (see Trigger Commands on page 11-4). When in manual trigger
mode, the imager scans until a bar code is read, or until the trigger is released.
When in serial mode, the imager scans until a bar code has been read or until
the deactivate command is sent. In serial mode, the imager can also be set to
turn itself off after a specified time has elapsed (see Read Time Out, which
follows).

* Manual/Serial Trigger

Read Time Out

Use this selection to set a time out (in milliseconds) of the imager’s trigger when
using serial commands to trigger the imager, or if the imager is in manual trigger
mode. Once the imager has timed out, you can activate the imager 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 = 0
(infinite, or no time out).

Read Time Out

Note: Programming Read Time Out in the secondary interface also programs it
in the primary interface.

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 6-7

Manual Trigger, Low Power
The imager powers down until the trigger is pulled. When the trigger is pulled,
the imager powers up and operates until there is no triggering for the time set
with the Low Power Time Out bar code below. There is a delay of up to one
second in operation when the imager is first triggered, but there is no delay when
operating in low power time out mode.

Manual Trigger, Low Power

Note: Manual Trigger, Low Power cannot be used with keyboard wedge
applications.

Low Power Time Out Timer

Scan the Low Power Time Out bar code to change the time out duration (in
seconds). Then scan the time out duration (from 0-300 seconds) from the inside
back cover, and Save. Default = 120 seconds.
If the unit remains idle during the low power time out interval, the unit goes into
low power mode. Whenever the trigger is enabled, the low power time out timer
is reset.

Low Power Time Out

Note: This time out does not begin until the imager time out setting has expired.
Note: Programming Low Power Time Out in the secondary interface also
programs it in the primary interface.

Scan Stand Mode

When a unit is in Scan Stand mode, it remains idle as long as it sees the Scan
Stand symbol. (See Scan Stand Symbol that follows.) When a different code
is presented, the Imager is triggered to read the new code.

Note:The imager automatically adjusts the illumination LEDs to the lowest light
level possible to maintain a good lock on the Scan Stand symbol. When a
symbol is presented, the imager’s light levels adjust to the saved setting (see
LED Power Level on page 3-8).

Scan Stand Mode

6-8 IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide

Scan Stand Symbol
Note: Scan Stand mode does not work when scanner is programmed for the
HHLC interface.
When a unit is in Scan Stand mode, the LEDs shine at the Scan Stand symbol
on the base of the stand which tells it to remain idle. When the Scan Stand
symbol is covered, the imager turns the LEDs on at the configured power level
(Default High) and attempts to find and decode bar codes in its field of view.

Scan Stand Symbol

Presentation Mode
This programs the imager to work in Presentation mode. The LEDs are either off
or at the lowest power for ambient conditions until a bar code is presented to the
imager. Then the LEDs turn on automatically to read the code. Presentation
Mode uses ambient light to detect the bar codes. If the light level in the room is
not high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly.

Message Length Description

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 imager will issue an error beep. You may wish to set the same value for
minimum and maximum length to force the imager 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 imager can automatically format the output from any EAN•UCC data carrier
to emulate what would be encoded in an equivalent UCC/EAN-128 or RSS and
Composite symbol. EAN•UCC data carriers include UPC-A and UPC-E, EAN-13
and EAN-8, ITF-14, UCC/EAN-128, and EAN•UCC RSS and Composites. Data
from 2D symbols such as Aztec Code, Data Matrix, or QR Code, which encode
a leading FNC1, also invoke EAN•UCC emulation. If UCC/EAN-128 Emulation
is selected, the AIM Symbology Identifier is reported as “]C1”. If RSS Emulation
is selected, the AIM Symbology Identifier is reported as “]e0.” Any application
that accepts EAN•UCC data can be simplified since it only needs to recognize
one data carrier type. Default = No Emulation.

8 OCR Programming

Use this section to program the Imager for optical character recognition (OCR).
The 2D IT4600/4800 reads 6 to 60 point OCR typeface.
Note: OCR is not as secure as bar codes. To enhance security in OCR
applications, create an OCR template to match the data, and print an
OCR check character.
The 2D IT4600/4800 will read the following fonts:
• OCR-A
0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
()<>/\+-*$

• OCR-B

• U.S. Currency Serial Number (Money)

*
• MICR E 13 B

• SEMI Font

You can either select an OCR default, or create your own custom template for
the type of OCR format you intend to read. See "OCR" on page 8-2 for
programming codes that will enable your imager to read OCR-A, OCR-B, U.S.
Currency, MICR E 13 B, or SEMI fonts. See "Creating OCR Templates" on
page 8-4 if you want to create a custom “template,” or character string that
defines the length and content of OCR strings that will be read with your imager.

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 8-3

Creating OCR Templates
You can create a custom “template,” or character string that defines the length
and content of OCR strings that will be read with your imager. There are several
choices when creating a custom template for your application. You can create a
template for a single format, you can string together several formats, and you can
create a template for a user-defined variable. These choices are described in
detail below.

Creating an OCR Template

A single template allows you to program the imager to read any combination of
characters in the order you specify. Refer to examples that follow the Template
Characters table below.

Template Characters

a represents any alphanumeric character (digit or letter)

c represents a check character position

d represents any digit

e represents any available OCR character

g represents character from user-defined variable “g”

h represents character from user-defined variable “h”

l represents any uppercase letter

t marks the start of a new template

r multi row indicator

All other characters represent themselves. Spaces can be used.

To Add an OCR Template

1. Begin building the template.
Scan the Enter OCR Template symbol (page 8-9).
2. Scan the characters for the string.
Use the Template Characters chart above to determine what characters you
need to create your format. Use the OCR Programming Chart (after the
Sample Codes in the back of this manual) to scan the characters for your
template.
Example A: You need to read any combination of 8 digits. The template
would be:

8-4 IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide

 dddddddd
To create this template, you would scan the Enter OCR Template symbol
(page 8-9), then scan the d from the OCR Programming Chart after the
Sample Codes in the back of this manual 8 times. Scan Save OCR Template
(page 8-9). This would let you read any string of 8 digits, for example:

37680981
3. Character Match Sequences
On the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-3, find the Hex
value that represents the character(s) you want to match. Use the Program-
ming Chart (inside the back cover) to scan the numbers that represent these
characters.
Example B: You need to read 3 digits, 3 specific characters (ABC), 3 digits.
The template would be:

ddd414243ddd
}
hex codes for
letters A, B, and C

To create this template, you would scan the Enter OCR Template symbol
(page 8-9), scan the d from the Sample Symbols (see page Prog Chart-4) 3
times, scan 414243 from the inside back cover (the hex characters for “A,”
“B,” and “C”), then scan the d from the inside back cover 3 more times. Scan
Save OCR Template, page 8-9. This would let you read any string of 3 digits,
“ABC,” then any string of 3 digits, for example:

551ABC983
4. Adding Spaces
You may also need to put spaces in your template.
Example C: You need to read 3 digits, space, 3 specific characters (ABC),
space, 3 digits. The template would be:

ddd2041424320ddd

hex code for a space

To create this template, you would scan the Enter OCR Template symbol
(page 8-9), scan the d from the OCR Programming Chart after the Sample
Codes in the back of this manual 3 times, scan 2041424320 from the
Programming Chart inside back cover (the hex characters for “space,” “A,”
“B,” “C,” “space”), then scan the d from the inside back cover 3 more times.
Scan Save OCR Template (page 8-9). This would let you read any string of
3 digits, space, “ABC,” space, then any string of 3 digits, for example:

551 ABC 983

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 8-5

Note: If using Quick*View to program, use the space bar to designate a space
and not the hex value of 20.
5. Exit OCR Template Editor
Scan Save OCR Template to save your entries. Discard OCR Template
exits without saving any OCR Template changes.

Stringing Together Multiple Formats

(Creating “Or” Statements)
You may want to program the imager to accept many OCR formats. To do this,
you would string together each format with a “t.” This tells the imager to read
optical characters that match any one of the formats in the template.
Example D: You need to read any combination of 8 digits, or a combination
of 4 digits, 2 uppercase letters, and 2 digits. The template would be:

ddddddddtddddlldd
To create this template, you would scan the Enter OCR Template symbol
(page 8-9), scan the d from the OCR Programming Chart after the Sample
Codes in the back of this manual 8 times, then scan the t to create the “or”
statement. Then you would scan the characters for the 2nd template. Scan
the d 4 times, scan l 2 times, then scan d 2 more times. Scan Save OCR
Template (page 8-9). This would let you read either type of format, for
example:

99028650
or
9902XZ50
You can string together as many templates as you need.

Creating a User-Defined Variable

You can create up to two of your own user variables for an OCR template. These
variables will represent any OCR readable characters. The user-defined
variables are stored under the letters “g” and “h.” Creating a user variable follows
the same steps as creating a template, but instead of scanning the Enter OCR
Template symbol, you scan the Enter User-Defined Variable symbol (page 8-
9). The letters g and h can then be used in an OCR template to define the
variable you specified.
Example E: You need a variable to represent the letters “A,” “B,” or “C.” The
template for this variable would be:

414243
To create this template, you would scan the Enter User-Defined Variable g
symbol (page 8-9). Scan 414243 from the inside back cover (the hex
characters for “A,” “B,” and “C”). Scan Save OCR Template (page 8-9). This
will let you read either A or B or C in any position where you place the g. For
example, you could create the following template:

8-6 IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide

 ddddddggg
This template would then let you read data that began with 6 digits, and had
an A, B, or C trailing. So you would be able to read:

654321ABC
or
654321BAC
or
654321CCC
Reading Multi-Row OCR
The IT4600/4800 is capable of decoding multi-row OCR text. Consider the
following example. This example shows serial commands as would be entered
using Quick*View.
Example G: You need to read multiple rows of OCR data as shown below:

12345678
ABCDEFGH
To read the first row of OCR data, you would menu the following template:

OCRTMP"dddddddd".

This template is the default OCR template. If you wanted to read the second
line of data, you would use the following template:

OCRTMP"llllllll".

To read both lines of OCR at one time, use the variable r to indicate the start
of a new row. All of the other templating variables for the individual rows work
the same as previously described. For instance, in the above example, you
would use the following template to read both rows:

OCRTMP"ddddddddrllllllll".

To read the three rows below, you would use the template command
"OCRTMP"ddddddddrllllllllrlllldddd".

12345678
ABCDEFGH
ABCD1234

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 8-7

Adding an OCR Check Character
You may want to print and verify a check character in order to enhance the
security of your OCR application. The IT4600/4800 can be programmed for
almost any type of check character. A number of presets are provided for
common check character uses (e.g., modulo 10 and modulo 36).
Scan the OCR Modulo 10 or OCR Modulo 36 Check Character bar code to
specify the type of check character used in the OCR strings you’re scanning.
The imager will then only read OCR character strings with a valid check
character. The IT4600/4800 transmits the OCR data without the check character
data. You must specify the location of the check character in the template with
a c.

Example F: You need to read any combination of 7 digits, with a modulo 10

check character in the 8th position. The template would be:

dddddddc
To create this template, you would scan the Modulo 10 Check Character
symbol. Then scan the Enter OCR Template symbol, scan the d from the
inside back cover 7 times, and scan the c once. Scan Save OCR Template
(page 8-9). This template will let you read any combination of 6 digits with a
correct check character after. (If the check character is invalid, the imager will
issue an error beep.) For example, the following string could be scanned:

01234569
and the output would be: 0123456

OCR Modulo 10 Check Character

Scan this symbol to program the OCR template for a simple modulo 10

To Add a Test Code I.D. Prefix to All Symbologies

This selection allows you to turn on transmission of a Code I.D. before the
decoded symbology. (See the Symbology Chart, included in the Appendix
A, page A-1) for the single character code that identifies each symbology.) This
action first clears all current prefixes, then programs a Code I.D. prefix for all
symbologies. This is a temporary setting that will be removed when the unit is
power cycled.

programming pages).

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 10 - 1

Test Menu
When you scan the Test Menu On code, then scan a programming code in this
manual, the imager displays the content of a programming code. The
programming function will still occur, but in addition, the content of that
programming code is output to the terminal.

Note: This feature should not be used during normal imager operation.

* Off

Visual Menu 2003

Visual Menu 2003 provides the ability to configure an imaging device by
connecting the imager to the com port of a PC. Visual Menu 2003 allows you to
download upgrades to a imager’s firmware, change programmed parameters,
and create and print programming bar codes. Using Visual Menu 2003, you can
even set up the configuration for a imager which is not attached to your PC. This
enables one expert user to establish the configuration settings for all the devices
your company uses, then save these configuration files for others. A
configuration file can be e-mailed or, if you prefer, an expert user can create a
bar code (or series of bar codes) which contains all the customized programming
parameters, and mail or fax the bar code(s) to any location. Users in other
locations can scan the bar code(s) to load in the customized parameters.

To communicate with a imager, Visual Menu 2003 requires that the PC have at
least one available serial communication port and an RS-232 cable to connect
the port to the device. A power supply, which plugs into the cable, is also
required.

Note: If you already have a copy of Visual Menu, please note that older versions
of Visual Menu will not work with the IT4600/4800. You must use Visual
Menu 2003 with the IT4600/4800.

Visual Menu 2003 Operations

The Visual Menu 2003 program performs the following operations:

• Displays all configuration data, and saves the information to a file on your
PC.
• Configures the device to meet your specific requirements. Visual Menu
2003 has all the programming parameters that are available via
programming bar codes in this User’s Guide.

10 - 2 IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide

 • Creates and prints a clone bar code which contains the program and
configuration data from one device. This bar code can then be used to
program additional devices with the same parameters.
• Selects a device from a list, then performs offline or online file
configuration for that device.

Temporary Visual Menu 2003 Configuration

For quick download communication configuration, scan the Visual Menu 2003
bar code to temporarily configure the imager for Visual Menu 2003 settings.
Note: If you have a unit capable of keyboard wedge mode, scan the bar code
below and the unit will communicate in RS-232 mode, allowing it to work
with Visual Menu 2003. To convert the imager back to keyboard wedge
communication, cycle the power.

Visual Menu 2003

Note: If you download new software into a unit, the user-programmed
parameters are retained. If you need to discard user-programmed
settings, see Resetting the Standard Product Defaults on page 10-1.

11 Serial Programming Commands

The serial programming commands can be used in place of the programming bar
codes. Both the serial commands and the programming bar codes will program
the IT4600/4800. For complete descriptions and examples of each serial
programming command, refer to the corresponding programming bar code in
this manual.
The device must be set to an RS-232 interface (see page 1-7). The following
commands can be sent via a PC COM port using terminal emulation software.
Conventions
The following conventions are used for menu and query command descriptions:
parameter A 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.
Menu Command Syntax
Menu commands have the following syntax (spaces have been used for clarity
only):
Prefix Tag SubTag {Data} [, SubTag {Data}] [; Tag SubTag {Data}] […] Storage
Prefix Three ASCII characters: SYN M CR (ASCII 22,77,13).
Tag A 3 character case-insensitive field that identifies the desired menu
command group. For example, all RS-232 configuration settings
are identified with a Tag of 232.
SubTag A 3 character case-insensitive field that identifies the desired menu
command within the tag group. For example, the SubTag for the
RS-232 baud rate is BAD.
Data The new value for a menu setting, identified by the Tag and Sub-
Tag.
Storage A single character that specifies the storage table to which the
command is applied. An exclamation point (!) performs the com-
mand’s operation on the device’s volatile menu configuration table.
A period (.) performs the command’s operation on the device’s
non-volatile menu configuration table. Use the non-volatile table
only for semi-permanent changes you want saved through a power
cycle.

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 11 - 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).
? What is the device’s current value for the setting(s).
* What is the range of possible values for the setting(s). (The de-
vice’s response uses a dash (-) to indicate a continuous range of
values. A pipe (|) separates items in a list of non-continuous val-
ues.)
Tag Field Usage
When a query is used in place of a Tag field, the query applies to the entire set
of commands available for the particular storage table indicated by the Storage
field of the command. In this case, the SubTag and Data fields should not be
used because they are ignored by the device.
SubTag Field Usage
When a query is used in place of a SubTag field, the query applies only to the
subset of commands available that match the Tag field. In this case, the Data
field should not be used because it is ignored by the device.
Data Field Usage
When a query is used in place of the Data field, the query applies only to the
specific command identified by the Tag and SubTag fields.

Concatenation of Multiple Commands

Multiple commands can be issued within one Prefix/Storage sequence. Only the
Tag, SubTag, and Data fields must be repeated for each command in the
sequence. If additional commands are to be applied to the same Tag, then the
new command sequence is separated with a comma (,) and only the SubTag and
Data fields of the additional command are issued. If the additional command
requires a different Tag field, the command is separated from previous
commands by a semicolon (;).

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.

11 - 2 IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide

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 #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 #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 #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 #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.

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 11 - 3

Trigger Commands
You can activate and deactivate the imager with serial trigger commands. First,
the imager must be put in Manual/Serial Trigger Mode either by scanning the
Manual/Serial Trigger Mode bar code (page 3-4), or by sending the Manual/
Serial Menu Command (page 11-9). Once the imager 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 imager scans until a bar code has been read, until the deactivate command
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 11-9).
Resetting the Standard Product Defaults
If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your imager, or you’ve
changed some options and want the factory settings restored, scan the
Standard Product Default Settings bar code below.

Standard Product Default Settings

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).

Imaging Commands

Image Snap - IMGSNP

Image Snap is the command processor for image capture. There are three
styles:
Decoding: This is similar to the current format for decoding, however, this
processing allows a few frames to be taken until the exposure parameters are
met. Then the last frame is available for further use.
Photo: This attempts to mimic a simple digital camera, and results in a visually
optimized image.
Manual: This is an advanced style, and should not normally be used. It allows
you the most freedom to set up the imager, and has no auto-exposure.

IMGSNP Modifiers
P - Imaging Style: Sets the Image Snap style (see above).
0P Decoding Style
1P Photo Style (default)
2P Manual Style
D - Delta for Acceptance: The target for the white value setting (see “W”
modifier). Delta is only available when using Photo Style. (Default = 10)
nD Range: 0 - 255.
L - LED State: Determines if the LEDs should be on or off, and when. LED
State is not available when using Decoding Style.
0L Use ambient illumination, not the LEDs (default)
1L LEDs on
U - Update Tries: The maximum number of frames the imager should take to
reach the Delta for Acceptance. Update Tries is only available when using
Photo Style. (Default = 4)
nU Range: 1 - 5
W - Target White Value: Sets the target for the median grayscale value in the
captured image. For capturing close-up images of high contrast documents,
a lower setting, like 75, is recommended. Higher settings result in longer
exposure times and brighter images, but if the setting is too high, the image
may be overexposed. Target White Value is only available when using Photo
Style. (Default = 140)
nW Range: 0 - 255

Image Ship - IMGSHP
An image is taken whenever the trigger of the IT4600/4800 is pressed. The last
image is always stored in memory. You may “ship” the image by using the
IMGSHP command.

IMGSHP Modifiers
The image ship command has many different modifiers that can be used to
change the look of the image output by the scanner. Modifiers affect the image
that is transmitted, but do not affect the image in memory. Modifiers always
begin with numbers and end with a letter (case insensitive). Any number of
modifiers may be appended to the IMGSHP command. For example, to get a
full-sized JPEG image from the device with pixel compensation, use the
following command (spaces optional):
IMGSHP 1C 6F 1S
C - Compensation: Flattens the image to account for variations in illumination
across the image.
0C Compensation disabled (default)
1C Compensation enabled
D - Pixel Depth: Indicates the number of bits per pixel in the transmitted
image (KIM or BMP format only).

mount applications where the imager is mounted upside down.
1IX Invert around the X axis (flips picture upside down)
1IY Invert around the Y axis (flips picture left to right)
J - JPEG Image Quality: Sets the desired quality when the JPEG image
format is selected. Higher numbers result in higher quality. Smaller numbers
result in greater amounts of lossy compression, faster transmission times, and
lower quality. (Default = 80)
nJ Image is compressed as much as possible while preserving quality
factor of n (n = 1 - 100)
1J worst quality
100J best quality
K - Gamma Correction: The way the imager responds to light levels is
matched to the way the human eye responds to light levels. This selection is
used for text images. The optimal setting is 50K.
0K Ship image without gamma correction
xxxK Ship image with gamma correction (range is 1K to 999K)
L, R, T, B, M - Image Cropping: Ship a window of the image by specifying the
left, right, top, and bottom pixel coordinates. Device columns are numbered 0
through 640, and device rows are numbered 0 through 480.
nL The left edge of the shipped image corresponds to column n of the
image in memory. Range: 000 - 640. (Default = 0)
nR The right edge of the shipped image corresponds to column n - 1
of the image in memory. Range: 000 - 640. (Default = all rows)
nT The top edge of the shipped image corresponds to row n of the
image in memory. Range: 000 - 480. (Default = 0)
nB The bottom edge of the shipped image corresponds to row n - 1 of
the image in memory. Range: 000 - 480. (Default = all rows)
Alternately, specify the number of pixels to cut from the outside margin of the
image; thus only the center pixels are transmitted.
nM Margin: cut n columns from the left, n + 1 columns from the right,
n rows from the top, and n + 1 rows from the bottom of the image.
Ship the remaining center pixels. Range: 1 - 239.
(Default = full image)
P - Protocol: Used for shipping an image. Protocol covers two features of the
image data being sent to the host. It addresses the protocol used to send the
data (Hmodem, which is an xmodem 1K variant that has additional header
information), and the format of the image data that is sent.
0P None (raw data)
2P None (default for USB)
3P Hmodem (default for RS-232)

11 - 24 IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide

 4P Hmodem compressed
S - Pixel Ship: Can be used to decimate the image by shipping only certain,
regularly spaced pixels. For example, 4S would transmit every fourth pixel
from every fourth line. The smaller number of pixels shipped, the smaller the
image. However, after a certain point, the image becomes unusable.
1S ship every pixel (default)
2S ship every 2nd pixel, both horizontally and vertically (default)
3S ship every 3rd pixel, both horizontally and vertically
U - Ultra Text Filters: Sharpens the edges and smoothes the area between
the edges of the transmitted text image. Available only with KIM grayscale
format. The optimal setting is 26U.
0U Don’t sharpen edges (default)
xxxU Sharpen edges (range is 1K to 255K)

with KIM grayscale format.
0V Don’t blur (default)
1V Blur

Intelligent Signature Capture - IMGBOX

Intelligent signature capture ships only part of an image to the host application.
This method reduces transfer time and file size, while simplifying signature
capture.
Below is an example of an intelligent signature capture application. In this
example, the operator reads the bar code, which is then transmitted to the host
application. Upon the receipt of the bar code data, the host application sends the
IMGBOX command, which tells the scanner to output only the area of the image
corresponding to the signature capture box. The scanner also automatically
adjusts for aspect ratio and distortion, issues that arise due to scanner skew with
respect to the bar code.
Align the aimers with the signature area (not with the bar code), then pull the
trigger. Send the IMGBOX command string after the trigger pull.

positive

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 11 - 25

An important aspect of intelligent signature capture is that all dimensions used in
the application are measured as multiples of the minimum element size of the bar
code. Using this method, intelligent signature capture always outputs the correct
image size and resolution, no matter the distance at which the scanner is held
from the bar code, assuming that the entire signature capture area is within the
scanner’s field of view.
The intelligent signature capture command string for this application is:
IMGBOX40S0X70Y190W100H1R0F

IMGBOX Modifiers
D - Pixel Depth: Indicates the number of bits per pixel in the transmitted
image.
8D 8 bits per pixel, grayscale image
1D 1 bit per pixel, black and white image
F - File Format: Indicates the type of file format in which to save the image.
0F KIM format (default)
1F TIFF binary
2F TIFF binary group 4, compressed
3F TIFF grayscale
4F Uncompressed Binary
5F Uncompressed grayscale
6F JPEG image
7F Outlined image
8F BMP format
H - Height of Signature Capture Area: In the example, the height of the area
to be captured is 1 inch, resulting in a value of H = 1/0.01 = 100. The value for
H is slightly larger, to accommodate some extra image capture area outside of
the signature capture box.
R - Resolution of Signature Capture Area: The number of pixels that the
imager outputs per each minimum bar width. The higher the value for R, the
higher the quality of the image, but also the larger the file size.
S - Bar Code Aspect Ratio: The ratio of the bar code height to the narrow
element width. In the example, the narrow element width is .010 inches and
the bar code height is 0.400 inches, resulting in a value of S = 0.4/0.01 = 40.
W - Width of Signature Capture Area: In the example, the width of the area
to be captured is 1.90 inches, resulting in a value of W = 1.9/0.01 = 190. The
value for W is slightly larger, to accommodate some extra image capture area
outside of the signature capture box.
X - Horizontal Bar Code Offset: The horizontal ratio offset of the center of the
signature capture area, in multiples of the minimum bar width. In the example,
the horizontal offset is 0.

11 - 26 IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide

 Y - Vertical Bar Code Offset: The vertical offset of the center of the signature
capture area, in multiples of the minimum bar width. Negative numbers
indicate that the signature capture is above the bar code, and positive numbers
indicate that the area is below the bar code. In the example, the horizontal
offset is 0.70 inches, resulting in a value for Y = 0.7/0.01 = 70.

13 Maintenance

Repairs
Repairs and/or upgrades are not to be performed on this product. These
services are to be performed only by an authorized service center. See
"Customer Support" on page 14-1 for further information.
Maintenance
The IT4600/4800 provides reliable and efficient operation with a minimum of
care. Although specific maintenance is not required, the following periodic
checks ensure dependable imager operation:

Cleaning the Imager’s Window

Reading performance may degrade if the imager’s window is not clean. If the
window is visibly dirty, or if the imager isn’t operating well, clean the window with
a soft cloth or lens tissue dampened with water (or a mild detergent- water
solution). If a detergent solution is used, rinse with a clean lens tissue dampened
with water only.
The imager’s housing may also be cleaned the same way.

! Caution:
Do not submerge the scanner in water. Do not use
abrasive wipes or tissues on the scanner’s window –
abrasive wipes may scratch the window.

Never use solvents (alcohol or acetone) on the housing

or window – solvents may damage the finish or the
window.

Inspecting Cords and Connectors

Inspect the imager’s interface cable and connector for wear or other signs of
damage. A badly worn cable or damaged connector may interfere with imager
operation. Contact your HHP distributor for information about cable
replacement. Cable replacement instructions are on page 13-2.

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 13 - 1

Replacing the Interface Cable
The standard interface cable is attached to the imager with an 10-pin modular
connector. When properly seated, the connector is held in the IT4600/4800
imager’s handle by a flexible retention tab. The interface cable is designed to be
field replaceable.
• Order replacement cables from IT4600/4800 or from an authorized distributor.
• When ordering a replacement cable, specify the cable part number of the
original interface cable.

To Replace the IT4600 Interface Cable:

1. Turn the power to the host system
OFF.

2. Disconnect the imager’s cable from

the terminal or computer.
3. Locate the small hole on the side of
the imager’s handle. This is the cable
release.
4. Straighten one end of a paper clip.
5. Insert the end of the paper clip into the
small hole and press in. This
depresses the retention tab, releasing
the connector. Pull the connector out
while maintaining pressure on the
paper clip, then remove the paper clip.
Cable
6. Replace with the new cable. Release
Insert the connector into the opening
and press firmly. The connector is
keyed to go in only one way, and will click into place.

To Replace the IT4800 Interface Cable:
1. Turn the power to the host system
OFF.

2. Disconnect the imager’s cable from

the terminal or computer.
3. Use a screwdriver to unscrew the cord
lock from the base of the imager.
4. Locate the small hole on the side of
the imager’s handle. This is the cable
release.
5. Straighten one end of a paper clip. Cable
6. Insert the end of the paper clip into the Release
small hole and press in. This

8. Screw the cord lock back in place over the cord.

Troubleshooting
The imager automatically performs self-tests whenever you turn it on. If your
imager is not functioning properly, review the following Troubleshooting Guide to
try to isolate the problem.
Is the power on? Is the red aiming illumination line on?
If the red aiming illumination 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 imager having trouble reading your symbols?

If the imager 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 imager or in the decoder to which the imager connects.

IMAGETEAM™ 4600/4800 User’s Guide 13 - 3

Is the bar code displayed but not entered?
The bar code is displayed on the host device correctly, but you still have to press
a key to enter it (the Enter/Return key or the Tab key, for example).
You need to program a suffix. Programming a suffix enables the imager 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" on page 4-1 for further information.

Does the imager read the bar code incorrectly?

If the imager reads a bar code, but the data is not displayed correctly on the host
screen:
• The imager may not be programmed for the appropriate terminal interface.
For example, you scan “12345” and the host displays “@es%.”

Reprogram the imager with the correct Plug and Play or Terminal selection
bar code. See Chapter 1 and Chapter 2.
• The imager may not be programmed to output your bar code data properly.
For example, you scan “12345” and the host displays “A12345B.”

Reprogram the imager with the proper symbology selections. See Chapter 7.

The imager won’t read your bar code at all.

1. Scan the sample bar codes in the back of this manual. If the imager reads
the sample bar codes, check that your bar code is readable.
Verify that your bar code symbology is enabled (see Chapter 7).
2. If the imager still can’t read the sample bar codes, scan "All Symbologies" on
page 7-2.
If you aren’t sure what programming options have been set in the imager, or if
you want the factory default settings restored, scan Standard Product Default
Settings on page 11-4.

Code Page Mapping of Printed Bar Codes
Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If the data
received does not display with the proper characters, it may be because the bar
code being scanned was created using a code page that is different from the one
the host program is expecting. If this is the case, select the code page with which
the bar codes were created. The data characters should then appear properly.
Note: The Code Page option is available for Code 39, Code 93, and Code 128.
