    SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Be sure to observe all these safety precautions.  Please READ through these instructions carefully. They will enable you to use the scanner correctly.  Always keep this manual nearby for speedy reference. Strict observance of these warnings and cautions is a MUST for preventing accidents that could result in bodily injury and substantial property damage.
  • Page 8 To System Designers:  When introducing the QK30 series of scanners in those systems that could affect human lives (e.g., medicines management system), develop applications carefully through redundancy and safety design which avoids the feasibility of affecting human lives even if a data error occurs. Wrong handling of the scanner could result in a heat, smoke, or scanner failure.
  • Page 9 Wrong handling of the scanner could result in a heat, smoke, or scanner failure. Be sure to observe the following.  Never disassemble or modify the scanner. Doing so could result in a fire or electrical shock. Never disassemble  Do not put the scanner on an unstable or inclined plane. The scanner may drop, creating injuries.
  • Page 10 Wrong handling of the scanner could result in a heat, smoke, or scanner failure. Be sure to observe the following.  If the interface cable is damaged (e.g., exposed or broken lead wires), stop using it and contact your nearest dealer. Failure to do so could result in a fire or electrical shock.

    Operating Environment for Use of the QK30-U Using the QK30-U requires a host computer equipped with a USB port. The operating environment differs depending upon whether you use the USB-COM interface or USB keyboard interface as listed below. The default interface is the USB-COM interface.

  • Page 14: Chapter 3 Connection To The Host Computer

    Chapter 3 Connection to the Host Computer The QK30-U receives and sends data from/to the host computer through the USB-COM interface or USB keyboard interface. You need to set up the device driver designed for the interface to be used. (Refer to the section 3.1 and section 3.2)

  • Page 15: Setting Up The Usb-Com Interface

    The driver always serves as a virtual serial port even if a USB device is unplugged, so the driver always occupies a  COM port number. The driver cannot coexist with conventional Denso USB-COM device drivers in a host computer. In the installation  procedure, the Active USB-COM port driver requires uninstalling the conventional ones.

  • Page 16: Setting Up The Usb Keyboard Interface

    Setting up the USB keyboard interface The USB keyboard interface requires the USB device class driver for HID (Human Interface Device) which is included in Windows 98 or later Operating Systems and whose setup wizard will automatically run. You do not need to install the device driver.
  • Page 17 Windows XP (1) Switch the computer on to run Windows XP. Log on as an Administrator. (2) Connect the scanner's USB interface cable to th e computer or USB hub. Wait for the Found N ew Hardware hint to pop up on the Windows task tray.

  • Page 18: Chapter 4 Scanning Codes

    Chapter 4 Scanning Codes Bring the LCD of a mobile phone to the scanning window of the scanner as shown below. The scanner reads a code shown on the mobile's LCD, outputs the code data read, beeps the speaker, and turns the indicator LEDs blue.

  • Page 19: Chapter 5 Customizing The Scanner

    Note: Selecting the USB keyboard interface makes the configuration software unavailable. * Registered users can download the configuration software (ScannerSetting_2D) from QBdirect, their customer support section on the Denso Wave website at no extra charge. For further details on QBdirect or to register, visit the following URL.

  • Page 20: Chapter 6 Scanning Control

    Chapter 6 Scanning Control Software Control You can control the scanner by sending scanning control commands from the host computer via USB-COM interface. (For details about control commands, refer to Appendix 2.) Commands Description Ready-to-scan command Upon receipt of one of these commands, the scanner lights the illumination LEDs and becomes ready to scan.

  • Page 21: Chapter 7 Scanning Functions

    Chapter 7 Scanning Functions Editing Data You can edit and output code data read, in any of the four data edit modes--"data extraction mode," "data substitution mode," "data blocksorting mode" and "ADF script mode."
