  • Page 5: Introduction

    1. Introduction This manual contains all the information needed to operate and configure the 1000 CCD Barcode Scanner. It is divided into two parts. The first part of this manual describes the operation and programmable features of the scanner. The second part of this manual contains the setup barcodes used to configure the scanner.
  • Page 6: General Features

    2. General Features 2.1 Buzzer The buzzer of the scanner beeps differently to indicate various operating conditions.  Power On Beep: The CCD scanner will issue a long beep to indicate a successful power on.  Good Read Beep: There are four volume levels and four beeping tones (frequencies) that the user can select from to signify a good read.

    continue to scan and the scanning period is re-counted each time there is a successful read.  Alternate Mode: The scanner will start scanning once the switch is triggered. The scanner will continue scanning until the switch is triggered again. ...

    the reading valid. It is obvious that the more redundancy the user selects, the higher the reading security and thus the slower the reading speed. The user must compromise between decoding security and decoding speed if the security feature is needed.
  • Page 9: Output Interface

    3. Output Interface The 1000 is a interface CCD scanner. It can be ordered as a keyboard wedge single scanner, an RS-232 scanner, or a USB scanner. The output interface must be specified at time of order. 3.1 Keyboard Wedge Interface 3.1.1 Keyboard Type The keyboard wedge interface is enabled by configuring/selecting keyboard type.
  • Page 10: Capital Lock Status

    3.1.4 Capital Lock Status In order to send alphabets with correct case, the scanner needs to know the capital lock status of the keyboard. Incorrect settings may result in reversed case of alphabets being transmitted. There are 3 options to this parameter : On, Off, or Auto Detection.
  • Page 11: Rs232 Interface

    3.2 RS232 Interface The user can select the desired, flow control, baud rate, parity, and data bits to be used in this output interface. 3.2.1 Baud Rate / Parity / Data Bits The supported baud rate, parity, and data bit are listed below. ...

    4. Symbology Parameters This section describes user configurable parameters which are pertaining to barcode symbologies. 4.1 Code39  Standard / Full ASCII Code 39 : User can choose to read either Standard Code 39 or Full ASCII Code 39 by configuring this parameter. ...

    configured in two ways : Fixed Code Length or Max / Min code length. If the fixed code length is selected, up to 2 fixed lengths can be specified. And if max / min code length is selected, the max length and the min length must be specified, and the scanner will only accept those codes with lengths fall between max / min length specified.
  • Page 14: Upca

    4.7 UPCA  Convert to EAN13: If this parameter is enabled, the UPCA read will be expanded into EAN13, and the following processing will follow the parameters configured for EAN13.  System Number Transmission: If this parameter is enabled, the system number will be included in the data being transmitted.
  • Page 15: Telepen

     Checksum Transmission: If this parameter is enabled, the checksum characters (two characters) will be transmitted together with data. 4.11 Telepen  Telepen Output: There are two flavors of encoding formats for Telepen. One is the original Telepen format, the other is AIM Telepen format. User can choose the desired encoding format for Telepen readings.
  • Page 16: Data Output Format

    5. Data Output Format Data read by the scanner will be processed in the following sequence (RS-232, Keyboard Wedge and USB interfaces). 1) The character substitution is performed on the barcode data. 2) The Code ID and the Length Code are inserted at the beginning of the data as shown below.

    Set 1 Set 2 Set 3 Set 4 Set 5 Code 39 Italy Pharmacode French Pharmacode Industrial 25 Interleave 25 Matrix 25 Codabar Code 93 Code 128 UPCE EAN8 EAN13 Plessey UPCA Telepen 5.4 Length Code Two digits Length Code representing the length of data (character count) can be inserted in front of data being transmitted.
  • Page 18: Data Editing

    6. Data Editing The 1000 CCD scanner provides advanced data editing functions for data formatting. Data editing is performed according to user configured editing formats. Up to three editing formats can be configured. Data is divided into fields by user specified rules. These fields together with user configurable additional fields constitute the data actually sent to the host computer.
  • Page 19: Total Number Of Fields

     Data Length: This parameter specifies the length (character count) of the data eligible for data editing. It is specified in the range format. The length of the data must fall between max and min length limits. If the max length and the min length configured is both zero, the scanner will not perform this length qualification.
  • Page 20: Field Transmission Sequence

    6.7 Field Transmission Sequence After the data fields and the additional fields are configured, user can now program the transmission sequence of these fields that comprise the final data. The “Start” label must be read before assigning the field transmission sequence. And then the desired field transmission sequence can be specified.
  • Page 21 Total Number of Fields: 3 Field 1: Divide field by field length, set the field length to 6. Field 2: Divide field by field terminating string. Set terminating string to ‘-’, and discard the terminating string. Additional Field 1: Set to one TAB character. Field Transmission Sequence: F2 AF1 F1 AF1 F3...

    7. Configuring your 1000 Configuring the 1000 CCD Scanner is done by reading the setup labels contained in the Configuration Manual (the second part of this manual). This section describes the procedure of configuring the scanner. Some configuration examples are also given in this section for illustration.

    Finally, the “Validate” label must be read to complete the setting. The scanner will respond with two beeps when the “Validate” label is read. 7.4.1 Numeric Parameters The configuration procedures for numeric parameters are shown below. Parameter Label Decimal Label "Validate"...
  • Page 24: Key Type/Status Setting

    Parameter Label Key Type / Status Label Two Hexadecimal Labels "Validate" Label For example, to configure the Prefix Code to be “AB”, the “Prefix Code” label is first read, and then the hexadecimal digit labels “4”, “1”, “4”, and “2” are read, and finally, the “Validate”...
  • Page 25: Exit Configuration Mode

     Add Control (R): The right Control key will be sent together with the character programmed.  Add Alternate (R): The right Alternate key will be sent together with the character programmed. For example, to program the Prefix Code to be “Ctrl-Shift-B”, “C”, the programming sequence should be: 1) “Prefix Code”...
