Chapter 2 Site Preparation and Installation This chapter provides a reference for preparing most checkstands to receive the scanner or scanner/scale. Included are physical parameters and instructions for checkstand preparation, power and ventilation considerations, cable routing information and unit installation. Site Preparation lists all procedures necessary to prepare the check- stand.
Page 24: Models
Models Scanner and scanner/scale models (reference Figure 4) are available in different lengths, allowing them to fit with little or no modifica- tion into openings cut for previously installed scanners such as Dat- ® alogic™ Magellan™ scanners, or NCR scanner models 7820/24 and 7870.
Page 25: Pre-Installation Considerations
Pre-Installation Considerations Figure 6. Produce Bar and Produce Rail Produce Produce Bar Option Rail Option Pre-Installation Considerations It should be noted that the scope of this manual does not encom- pass all factors related to worker safety and checkstand design. It does, however, offer a list of considerations that may be helpful in ensuring greater safety and productivity.
Page 26: Checkstand Design
Checkstand Design 1. Select a design which allows load-sharing by several muscle groups (for example designs which allow the cashier to use both hands for scanning and bagging). 2. Select checkstands which deliver products to the cashier on an input belt and do not require the unloading of items from a cart.
Page 27: Scanner Installation
Scanner Installation 12. Provide adequate toe space, foot rests or rails, antifatigue mats, and where feasible, an adjustable seat or stand against which the cashiers can lean. Scanner Installation 1. Mount the horizontal surface of the scanner flush with the countertop to encourage slide scanning rather than lifting.
Page 28: Scanner Usage
Scanner Usage 1. Minimize handling of heavy/bulky products. Leave these items in the cart and use an alternative entry method such as key entry of short PLUs, or handheld scanning. 2. Regularly train cashiers in proper scanning methods and ergo- nomics principles, such as: •...
Page 29 Site Preparation Overview Routine operations such as ‘zeroing’ Service Access Requirements — and calibration do not require removal of the scanner from the checkstand or disassembly of the product.

sure). Should such an enclosure be unavoidable, an alternate method of platter removal using two coins may be employed, how- ever a minimum vertical clearance of 1.5” (3.8 cm) MUST be pro- vided (reference Figure 7). Another consideration is that the scan zone must be kept free of obstructions such as enclosures, key- board mounts, etc.
Page 31 Ventilation and Spacing If motors, conveyor belts, or other heat producing equipment are located near the scanner, forced air ventilation may be required. In most installations, a 30 cfm (.84 cmm) axial fan should provide suf- ficient air movement. If a ventilation fan is installed, one with a removable filter that may be washed or replaced is recommended.
Page 32: Service Access
Service Access The scanner and scanner/scale have been engineered to allow per- formance of all routine service and maintenance (such as “zeroing” and calibration) without removing the scanner from the checkstand. Additionally all cable connections made at the scanner can be con- nected and removed while the unit is sitting on the countertop.
Page 33: Checkstand Preparation
Checkstand Preparation Checkstand Preparation Reference Figure 9. When performing a first time installation into a new checkstand, verify before cutting that room will be allowed for cabling, the AC/DC Power Supply, and any EAS peripheral equip- ment (such as controller boxes, etc.). When making the opening, take extra care to accurately cut to the correct dimensions.
Page 34: Liquid Spills And Moisture
Liquid Spills and Moisture Select a checkstand design which allows fluids to flow through, and directs liquids away from any electronic equipment or storage areas. Counter Cutout The most important consideration when planning the counter open- ing for the scanner is the operator’s comfortable reaching distance. The ideal, ergonomically sound installation allows items to be directed within easy reach, and a scanning area requiring no lifting or special orientation of items.
Page 35 Counter Cutout 3. Install the AC/DC Power Supply, the Remote Scale Display cable (if Remote Display is used) and the interface cable(s) observing the following: Interface cables (and display cable, if applicable) should be routed away from all highly inductive electrical devices, like motors and conveyor belts, and even away from the unit’s power cable if possible.

Page 42: Checkstand Mounting
Checkstand Mounting There are a number of things to take into account when installing the unit into a checkstand. Key factors are ergonomic/worker safety, loading capacity and stability. Consider the scanner or scan- ner/scale’s weight when calculating the robustness of construction needed to support it as well as maximum capacity of weighed and scanned items.
Page 43: Unpacking
Installation Overview Unpacking To unpack the unit: • Inspect the package for signs of damage that may have occurred during shipping. If damage is found, report it to your carrier immediately. • Lift out the accessory box containing the AC/DC Power Supply, optional Remote Scale Display and cable (if present), and the Quick Reference Guide.

While in Scanner Diagnostic Mode, identification numbers for inter- face type, firmware and configuration will scroll continually across the scanner’s 7-segment FRU (Field Replaceable Unit) display. This is useful information for field diagnostics.
Page 48: Cables & Connections
Cables & Connections Considerations when routing the power and interface cables for the scanner and scanner/scale are: • Ensure that cables are not pinched, kinked or pierced. • Do not route interface cables in close proximity to electrical motors or other sources of electromagnetic interference. Do not plug the AC power cord into the outlet at this time.
Page 49: Remote Scale Display Placement/Installation
Remote Scale Display Placement/Installation Figure 23. Physical Measurements: AC/DC Adapter 1.23" (3.1 cm) Remote Scale Display Placement/Installation The modular Remote Display is designed so that single display heads can be stacked to form a dual display as shown in Figure in order to address the specific viewing needs of both the customer and the cashier.
Page 50: Viewing Angle
Viewing Angle The optimum display angle is directly facing the viewer. Tilt and rotatioin adjustments can be made as shown in Figure 24b. To ensure that displays are easily readable for customers/cashiers of average height, display heads should be between 48” to 60” (122 to 152 cm) from the floor.
Page 51: Remote Display Cabling
Remote Scale Display Placement/Installation Remote Display Cabling Your installation should also take into account the routing of Remote Display cabling. Ensure that distance and obstacles spanned by the routed cable will not kink, pinch or stretch it. Also keep in mind you may need to drill a hole through which to route it.

Page 67: Operational Configuration
Operational Modes Error Reporting If a fatal error is detected during Selftest or operation, the unit will not advance to Normal Operation Mode. Selftest diagnostics will cause the unit to sound a long, low tone and/or display an error message on the 7-segment display indicating where the failure occurred.
Page 68: Operating Mode
Operating Mode Operating Mode includes Normal Operation (scanning, EAS deacti- vation and weighing) and Sleep Mode. These two modes are most commonly observed by the user/operator. Normal Operation This condition is indicated by the scanner green LED being on dim and steady.
Page 69: Additional Functions
Additional Functions Additional Functions Additional scanner and scale functions include programming, run- ning scanner or scale diagnostics, initiating a reset, zeroing the scale, and calibrating the scale. Programming When your scanner or scanner/scale is shipped from the factory it is configured to work with the POS system interface at your store and read the bar code symbologies you designated.
Page 70: Scale Adjustments
Scale Adjustments The scale allows two user adjustments: zeroing and calibration. The first, and most frequently performed, is ‘zeroing’ the scale. This operation resets the scale’s “at rest” reading to zero which must be within the range of - 0.2 pounds (- 0.09kg) to +0.6 pounds (0.27kg) since the last calibration.
Page 71 Additional Functions Calibrating the Scale The second adjustment, calibration, defines and sets a standard reference weight range against which all product weights are com- pared. If your scale is set for weighing in pounds, this range is 0 - 30 pounds, and, if your scale is set for weighing in kilograms, the range is 0 - 15 kilograms.
Page 72: Operational Maintenance
Operational Maintenance The scanner or scanner/scale will provide dependable service for many years. The following maintenance procedures will keep your scanner or scanner/scale operating at peak performance. Cleaning the Platter and Scan Windows Clean the exterior surfaces of the horizontal and vertical scan windows at least twice daily with a nonabrasive, mild, water-based glass cleaner and paper towels or lint-free cleaning tissues.

Page 94: Description Of Calibration Sequence
Description of Calibration Sequence The Calibration Sequence sets the scale to an accurate reference point for weighing. This process involves the use of a Field Standard Weight Set (31.5-pounds) for calibration in pounds, (18.5-kilo- grams) for Metric. Once calibration has been successfully com- pleted, the scanner/scale uses the certified weight as a reference for subsequent weighing activities.
Page 95: Motion Test
Motion Test Motion Test This test verifies that the scale will not ‘zero’ when the weighing surface of the scanner/scale is in motion. 1. Verify that the Yellow LED is on and the Remote Display reads 0.00 pounds or 0.000 kilograms. 2.
Page 96: Preparing The Scanner/Scale For Calibration

Page 107: Chapter 6. Programming
Chapter 6 Programming Introduction to Label Programming The programming bar code labels contained in this manual will allow you to customize and configure features and settings for your scanner (scanner/scale). To ensure full compatibility and proper function, use only the programming bar codes in this manual and other product-specific publications to program scanner features.
Page 108: Integrating The Scanner With Your Host System
Integrating the Scanner With Your Host System Your scanner MUST be equipped with the correct hardware (inter- face board, cable, etc.) to properly communicate with your host sys- tem. Contact your dealer for information if you have questions about your scanner’s hardware compatibility. You may also want to contact the dealer or your system administra- tor if you have no record of how your scanner was pre-programmed at the factory.
Page 109 Integrating the Scanner With Your Host System Ensure that your planned modifications are compatible with the cur- rent interface. For example, baud rate selections are only valid in the RS-232 interface. The scanner will sound an error tone when scanning programming labels for features invalid to the current interface group.

The scanner can also accept programming via its auxilliary port using a handheld scanning device. Eligible handheld devices must have the ability to transmit Code 128 function codes such as the programming bar codes presented in this manual. Datalogic models ® ®...
Page 111: What Is Programming Mode
Programming Overview What Is Programming Mode? Programming Mode is a state in which the scanner must be placed in order to accept commands via programming bar code labels. When programming using the bar code labels in this manual, the scanner is typically placed in Programming Mode by scanning the SWITCH label.
Page 112: Programming Session
Programming Session A typical programming session is conducted as follows: 1. Scan the SWITCH bar code to place the scanner in Program- ming Mode. Depending upon its current programming, the scanner may emit a beep or beeps, indicating it has read the bar code and the scanner (top) green LED will flash on and off slowly while the scanner remains in Programming Mode.
Page 113 Programming Overview It is recommended that programming sessions be limited to one fea- ture at a time. Should you make a mistake in the programming sequence, it can be difficult to discover where an error has been made if several features are programmed at once. Additionally, it can be NOTE confusing to determine which features may or may not have been suc- cessfully set following such a session.
Page 114: Programming Sequence
Programming Sequence To modify a scanner feature (item), the programming bar codes contained in this manual must be scanned in a given sequence depending upon the feature being programmed (as shown in Table 3). There are three possible programming sequences: If the scanner’s interface type must be changed, always be sure that interface configuration is the FIRST item scanned during a program- ming session.
