Symbol DS6707 Digital Imager Scanner Product Reference Guide • Chapter 6, SSI Interface describes how to set up the digital imager scanner with a Simple Serial Interface (SSI) host. When using SSI, program the digital imager scanner via bar code menu or SSI host commands.
Software type and version number Motorola responds to calls by e-mail, telephone or fax within the time limits set forth in service agreements. If your problem cannot be solved by Motorola Enterprise Mobility Support, you may need to return your equipment for servicing and will be given specific directions.
Chapter 1 Getting Started Introduction The Symbol DS6707 digital imager scanner combines superior 1D and 2D omnidirectional bar code scanning and sub-second image capture and transfer to provide the best value in a digital imager scanner. Whether in hand-held mode or presentation (hands-free) mode in a stand, the digital imager scanner ensures comfort and ease of use for extended periods of time.
Configuration via 123Scan. Unpacking Remove the digital imager scanner from its packing and inspect it for damage. If the scanner was damaged in transit, contact Motorola Enterprise Mobility Support. See page xv for contact information. KEEP THE PACKING. It is the approved shipping container; use this to return the equipment for servicing.
1 - 3 Symbol DS6707 Digital Imager Scanner Product Reference Guide Setting Up the Digital Imager Scanner Installing the Interface Cable Plug the interface cable modular connector into the cable interface port on the bottom of the scanner handle. Figure 1-2.
Getting Started 1 - 4 Connecting Power (if required) If the host does not provide power to the digital imager scanner, connect an external power supply: Connect the interface cable to the bottom of the digital imager scanner, as described in Installing the Interface Cable on page 1-3.
1 - 5 Symbol DS6707 Digital Imager Scanner Product Reference Guide Wall Mount To use the optional wall mount to mount the digital imager scanner on a wall, place the mount in the desired location on the wall and secure by inserting two screws* appropriate for the mounting surface through the screw holes on the mount, and into the surface.

ADF Programming: Normal Data Entry. Duration of tones are short. High/low beeps Enter another digit. Add leading zeros to the front if necessary. Low/low beeps Enter another alphabetic character or scan the End of Message bar code.
Install and program the digital imager scanner (see Setting Up the Digital Imager Scanner on page 1-3). For assistance, contact the local supplier or Motorola Enterprise Mobility Support. Scanning with the Digital Imager Scanner Ensure all connections are secure (see the appropriate host chapter.) Aim the digital imager scanner at the bar code.

Scanning 2 - 5 When the digital imager scanner senses movement, in its default Auto Aim trigger mode, it projects a red laser aiming pattern (Figure 2-3) which allows positioning the bar code or object within the field of view. (To turn off the default Auto Aim trigger mode, see Trigger Mode on page 4-8.) If necessary, the digital imager scanner...
2 - 6 Symbol DS6707 Digital Imager Scanner Product Reference Guide Aiming Hold the digital imager scanner between two and nine inches (depending on symbol density; see Decode Zones on page 2-8) from the symbol, centering the aiming pattern on the symbol. Ensure the cross hair falls on the symbol.
Scanning 2 - 7 Scanning in Presentation Mode The optional Intellistand adds greater flexibility to scanning operation. When you insert the digital imager scanner into the stand’s “cup,” the scanner’s built-in sensor places the scanner in presentation (hands-free) mode. When you remove the digital imager scanner from the stand it operates in its normal hand-held mode.

To implement this, first enter an ADF rule that applies to the normal situation, such as: Scan Rule Belongs to Set 1. When scanning a bar code of length 15, send the next 2 characters, send the class key, send the next 8 characters, send the stock key, send the data that remains, send the Enter key.
Advanced Data Formatting 11 - 5 Note that using the standard data editing functions also creates ADF rules. Scan options are entered as ADF rules, and the previous hierarchy also applies to them. For the digital imager scanner, this applies to prefix/suffix programming in the parameter Scan Data Transmission Format on page 4-17.
