  • Page 27: Chapter 2. Scanning

    Chapter 2 Scanning Introduction This chapter describes the various laser patterns and scanning modes available in the M2000 scanner, provides instructions and tips for scanning, and lists beeper and LED indications. Scanning Modes The M2000 may be used on the counter-top or in a hand-held orientation. In hand-held use, the scanner operates in triggered mode where you pull the trigger to activate the scan pattern and decode the bar code.
  • Page 28 Cyclone M2000 Series Product Reference Guide • Cyclone Semi-omnidirectional Scan Pattern, an alternative to the full omnidirectional pattern, scans highly truncated 1D and RSS bar codes. The bar code must be presented horizontally with no more than 20 tilt. • Raster Scan Pattern directly opens the laser to a full sized raster pattern.

  • Page 29: Smart Raster

    In Smart Raster operation, a trigger pull causes a single scan line pattern to appear. If the target is a 1-D bar code, the scanner decodes the symbol. If the target bar code is a 2-D bar code, the scanning patterns open up to a full, optimized raster pattern as soon as the scanner is properly aligned over the bar code.
  • Page 30 When using the raster pattern, if the pattern does not cover the top and bottom of a 2D symbol, pull the scanner back until it does. Make sure the scan pattern extends at least three quarters of an inch beyond the edges of the bar code.

  • Page 31: Scanning Composite Bar Codes

    Scanning Scanning Composite Bar Codes Composite Code is a combination of a 1D symbol (RSS, UPC/EAN or UPC/EAN-128) and a 2D symbol (CC-A, CC-B or CC-C). When scanning a barcode: • Keep the scan pattern parallel to the 2D symbol’s rows.
  • Page 32 Cyclone M2000 Series Product Reference Guide scanned first. The second decode beep is a short high tone. • Double Beep after both 1D and 2D symbols are decoded; the scanner emits two short, high tone beeps. Note: Refer to Composite Beep Mode on page 3-32 for parameters. The scanner also lights the three green LEDs to indicate a successful decode.

  • Page 33: Specular Reflection

    Scanning Specular Reflection When laser beams reflect directly back into the scanner from the bar code, they can “blind” the scanner and make decoding difficult. This is specular reflection. To avoid this, scan the bar code so that the beam does not bounce directly back. But don’t scan at too oblique an angle;...

  • Page 34: Beeper Definitions

    If three beeps occur during normal operation, it is due to a reset and any work in progress is lost. If this occurs often, contact the Symbol Services Division. Parameter Menu Scanning 2 short high tones Correct entry scanned or correct menu sequence performed.

  • Page 35: Macro Pdf

    Short high tone 2D portion of composite code was decoded. Decode beep follows when entire composite code is decoded. Double short tone MPDF symbol is buffered. A single beep indicates transmission of the buffered data.

  • Page 36: Led Indications

    Cyclone M2000 Series Product Reference Guide LED Indications The lit LED indicates the selected scan pattern for hand-held and counter-top mode. In hand-held mode, pressing the Scan Pattern Mode Selector button selects the next pattern, and lights the corresponding LED. (The counter-top laser pattern is selectable only via programming bar code.) When a bar code is successfully decoded, all three LEDs light momentarily.

  • Page 171: Introduction

    Chapter 4 Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) Introduction Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) is a means of customizing, or editing, the data scanned by the scanner before transmitting the data to your host device. Scanned data can be edited to suit your particular requirements. ADF is implemented by scanning a related series of bar codes to create rules to apply to the scanned data.

  • Page 172: Using Adf Bar Codes

    Cyclone M2000 Series Product Reference Guide In this example, if a Code 39 bar code of 1299X1559828 is scanned, the following is transmitted: 00001299<space>. If a Code 39 bar code of 1299X15598 is scanned, this rule is ignored because the length (10 characters) does not pass the criteria.

    Advanced Data Formatting (ADF) ADF Bar Code Menu Example This section provides an example of how to enter an ADF rule to apply to scanned data.
