  • Page 9: Keyboard Wedge Mode

    Introduction Keyboard Wedge Mode As a keyboard wedge interface, the PSC scanner can be used with ter- minals provided by most of the major terminal manufacturers. In most cases, the PSC scanner is easily connected between the key- board and display of the terminal. The use of Preamble/Postamble,...

  • Page 10: Unpacking

    If damage has occurred, a claim should be filed with the carrier immediately. Retain the shipping box, since it should be used to return the scanner to the factory for service. In Keyboard Wedge mode the PSC scanner simulates keyboard key- strokes.

  • Page 11: Connecting The Power Supply

    MSR receptacle located on the housing connector. Terminal Power-Up Sequence Turn on the power to the terminal to which the PSC scanner is con- nected. The unit will issue a series of beeps which are intentional and indicate that the terminal/keyboard power-on reset routines have been completed.

  • Page 12: Serial Communications

    To configure the PSC scanner in a Serial TTL mode, the user must have the appropriate cable with the correct signal pinouts in order to interface the scanner to the host terminal. To program the PSC for Serial TTL communications, the user must first identify the serial communications parameters sup- ported by the host terminal.

  • Page 13: Autosense® Operation

    When the AutoSense (specifically designed for standard and HP scanners), the user must first attach the plastic scanner holder to the bracket of the stand as shown in Figure 1, next page. The scanner is then mounted into the holder. Insure that the trigger beam is aimed at the reflective tape affixed to the stand.
  • Page 14 Figure 1. The (NO) Enable AutoSense scanned until the green “Good Decode” light blinks. This will acti- vate the trigger screen. The scanner is then placed into the holder and the user must check that the red laser beam is aimed at the reflective label affixed to the stand.

  • Page 15: Wand Emulation Operation

    Wand Emulation Operation To operate the PSC scanner in Wand Emulation the user must first turn off the powerto the host device and then detach the scanner from the host device by removing the cable from the scanner. The proper Wand Emulation cable must be connected between the scanner and the portable data terminal for remote data collection.

  • Page 16: Setup Overview

    General setup parameters are divided into Keyboard Wedge options (communication to host through the terminal keyboard), Wand Emu- lation options (communication between the scanner and the host sys- tem’s decoder), and Serial Communication options (communications direct to the host system).

  • Page 17: Serial Communication And Wedge Options

    Serial Communication and Wedge Options The following communication options are used to define how your PSC scanner communicates with the host system through its serial interface or its keyboard wedge interface. A message transmitted from the scanner upon a successful decode...

  • Page 18: Symbologies

    Symbologies The bar codes that can be read by PSC’s bar code scanners include: Code 39 Interleaved 2 of 5 Standard 2 of 5 UPC-A, UPC-E EAN/JAN A complete list of the related options and the instructions for setting them are provided in the section on Symbologies. Scanning problems are most often caused by poor quality bar code symbols.

  • Page 19: Parameters Selection Guidelines

    Parameters section. Then scan the label to the left of Beeper On, Vol- ume Low. The correct label is reproduced below. When enabling or disabling a parameter, be sure the scanner beam illuminates only one bar code symbol at a time. The layout of this manual minimizes accidental multiple-label scanning.
  • Page 20 Your PSC scanner does not have a distinct programming mode. Instead, it automatically recognizes and reacts to the labels you scan. If, for example, you scan INTERCHARACTER DELAY = XX and then scan a normal data label, a normal tone is emitted in response to the data label, and the programming command is ignored.

  • Page 21: Serial Communication

    Baud Rate There are seven standard serial communication baud rates to select from. Your scanner and the serial host computer must be set to the same baud rate. Select the correct rate. 06656 Serial Communication...

  • Page 22: Data Transmission

    Data Transmission Serial transmission data is composed of three of four different ele- ments, depending upon host system requirements. These elements are the START bit, DATA bits (7 or 8 bits), OPTIONAL PARITY bits, and STOP bit (s) (1 or 2 bits). The PARITY bit is used for error detection (e.g., data altered in trans- mission), but is not required by all systems.
  • Page 23 Stop Data Parity Bits Mark Space If your system requires a WORD length of 8 bits, 1 or 2 STOP bits, and PARITY check, select the appropriate option from the table below: Stop Data Parity Bits Even Mark Space 06656 Table 1.

  • Page 24: Communications Protocol

    Communications Protocol XON/XOFF Protocol controls data flow between your PSC scanner and a serial host computer. If Protocol = XON/XOFF is selected, the scanner rec- ognizes the ASCII XON/XOFF characters. The host may then stop transmission with XOFF and resume with XON.
  • Page 25 Like XON/XOFF protocol, CTS protocol is a mechanism used to con- trol data flow out. The CTS input is used to inform the scanner that the host terminal is ready to accept scanned data. When CTS (+) pro- tocol is selected, the scanner waits for a low level on its CTS input before transmitting data.
  • Page 26 Protocol = CTS (+) RTS always low RTS always high RTS high indicates scanner ready to receive data RTS low indicates scanner has data to transmit RTS high indicates scanner has data to transmit Disable Stop/Go Protocol* Enable Stop/Go Protocol...

  • Page 27: Label Buffering

    When No Buffering is selected then scanning will be stopped until the current label is completely transmitted. When One Label Buffering is selected the scanner will allow the oper- ator to scan one more label in addition to the label already in the transmit buffer.

  • Page 28: Menu Commands Parameter Messages

    External trigger is controlled by applying an external trigger signal to the CTS input (with external triggering enabled). When active, this signal causes scanning to begin just as if the scanner’s trig- ger were depressed. Scanning continue until a label is decoded or the external trigger signal is deactivated.

  • Page 29: General Parameters

    Intercharacter Delay Certain terminals and computers require an intercharacter delay to simulate the effects of keystroke delays. Choosing an intercharacter delay causes the characters to be sent at the slower speed required by the device to which you are interfacing. To set Intercharacter Delay to other then zero, scan the label below and then scan two separate digits from the Digit Selection page (99 maximum).

  • Page 30: Transmission Mode

    The disadvantage of the full duplex mode is simply that the host computer must be programmed to relay the message back to the scanner. For models which do not have an LCD, parameter selec- tions NA and NB have no effect.

  • Page 31: Power Consumption

    Power Consumption You may choose one of two Power Consumption modes. Option @A supplies full power to the scanner at all times; Option @B allows the unit to revert to a standby mode after a successful read. This mode is a power conservation feature.

  • Page 32: Laser Timeout

    Laser Timeout The scan beam will activate in response to a trigger pull. The beam will automatically deactivate after a label is decoded. If a label is not decoded., the scan beam will timeout and deactivate after several sec- onds. Scan the following labels to control the length of the timeout. Beeper Operation Scan one of the options below to modify beeper operation.

  • Page 33: Message Formatting

    These attributes are handled differently whether the scanner is configured for serial mode or wedge mode. When config- ured for wedge mode these attributes are sent as keystrokes. The scanner automatically translates the ASCII characters into keystrokes before sending data to the host.

  • Page 34: Prefix

    Prefix A prefix is a subset of the preamble normally formatted to some industry standard, i.e., it is represented by a specific ASCII code. An example of a prefix is the STX (Start of Transmission) code. Suffix A suffix is a subset of the Postamble. Like the prefix, it is normally assigned a specific ASCII code.
  • Page 35 Terminal ID Terminal ID characters are used to identify individual scanners when more than one scanner is interfaced with the host system. Options available are none (DISABLED) or digits 01 through 99. If you scan the label below, you must also scan two of the digits from the Digit Selection page.

  • Page 36: Code Identifier

    Code Identifier A code identifier may optionally be transmitted with the message. This option is provided so a host computer can identify the type of bar code scanned, as well as the encoded information. Scan Option FA to disable the code identifier. Scan Option FB to enable the code identifier.

  • Page 37: Preamble Or Postamble Selection

    Preamble or Postamble Selection Preambles and Postambles are composed of up to four ASCII charac- ters. Each ASCII character is encoded as two hexadecimal numbers. Use the Hexadecimal Conversion Table in Appendix A to look up the hexadecimal equivalent. If you select a Preamble or a Postamble you must scan four ASCII characters, even if the Preamble or Postamble is less than four characters in length.

    EEPROM, a function that takes about one second. At 9600 baud, the host can easily issue commands to the scanner faster than they can be processed. If after issuing each command the host waits to receive an ACK or NAK code before issuing the next command, the scanner cannot be overrun.

  • Page 40: Beeper Off Cr-Lf Ack

    Beeper Off CR-LF Ack If the scanner receives an unknown or improperly formatted code, or if the required parameters are missing or out-of-range, it sends a NAK (15H) Code. Command STX ESC PC ETX STX ESC PD12 ETX STX ESC PE14 ETX...

  • Page 44 In normal Wedge Mode, the scanner emulates the keyboard exactly. Should a scanned bar code label have alphabetic characters, they will be presented to the computer as if they had been typed at the key- board. They will be affected by the Caps Lock key. If the scanned label has lower case alphabetic characters AND the Caps Lock key in ON, then the alphabetics will be presented as upper case.
  • Page 45 In some models of scanner, the wedge output is capable of two types. To enable primary or secondary keyboard modes, scan one of the next two labels. NOTE In Wedge Mode, non-printable ASCII characters (00-31H) do not allow for an obvious translation to keycodes.

  • Page 46: Upc (A And E)

    The PSC scanner is configured with Code 39, Code 128, UPC-A and UPC-E not expanded symbologies. The user has the ability to enable or disable any of the symbologies given below as well as UPC or EAN supplements, I 2 of 5 with check digit, and Code 39 modulo 43 check digit.

    Your PSC scanner can be programmed to add and/or change symbol- ogy identifiers which might be required to be transmitted with mes- sages. This feature is provided to allow a host computer to recognize the type of bar code scanned, as well as the uncoded information. The symbology identifiers are selected by scanning the desired program- ming bar code symbol as defined below.
  • Page 63 To change any single symbology identifier, scan the appropriate sym- bology identifier bar code symbol and then scan the four hexadecimal characters that represent the two bytes of the identifier. If you select a one character identifier, then scan zero (null) twice for the second character.
  • Page 64 To find the hexadecimal values for the characters turn to the Hexa- decimal Conversion Table. The procedure for selecting a symbology identifier is identical to the procedure for selecting Preambles and Postambles. The similar difference is that symbology identifiers are a maximum of two characters, not four.
