Page 4: Internal Data Buffer
Internal data buffer KDC100 has 200K bytes flash memory where it stores the read barcodes. Its capacity, in terms of number of barcodes, depends on the size of barcodes. Barcodes are stored sequentially as they are scanned in the internal flash memory. -
Page 5: How Many Barcodes Can We Store
Therefore, KDC100 can store 10,240 UPCA barcodes. If different length barcodes are mixed, user cannot compute a priori what the maximum number of barcodes is. What happens when this buffer is full? When the internal flash memory is full, KDC100 displays buffer full message and ignores the command to scan barcodes. -
Page 6: Command Set
KDC100 Programming Manual Command Set KDC100 has various commands and they are quite simple. They are shown in the following table. Command Input Output Description None value @ Returns current battery capacity(value = 0~100) YMDHmS Setting new date and time of KDC100... -
Page 7: B' Command
Parameters: None Format: ‘D’ Output: ‘!’ – KDC100 internal flash memory is full or Reading failure ‘@’ – Barcode reading success Purpose: Turns the motor on, then turns the laser on and starts scanning. When a barcode is found or if... -
Page 8: E' Command
Format: ‘F’ Output: ‘@’ – all the times. Purpose: Set KDC100 internal options and flags to the factory default setting. The factory default settings are: - All symbologies are enabled. - All options are disabled except . UPCE_ReturnCheckDigit . UPCA_ReturnCheckDigit . -
Page 9: H' Command
“Hxxxx#” where xxxx is the value of parameter in hex. Output: ‘!’ – invalid parameter. ‘@’ – all other times. Purpose: Selects if KDC100 need(1)/doesn’t need(0) to handshake with HOST while sending packet data. KD100 doesn’t do handshake if sending barcode only. ‘h’ command Parameters: None Format: ‘h’... -
Page 10: L' Command
‘N’ Output: ‘xxxxxxxx@’ where xxxxxxxx is the number of stored barcodes and @ means the end of data Purpose: Read the number of stored barcodes in KDC100 internal flash memory ‘O’ command Parameters: The options (it is unsigned 32-bit number) Format: ‘Oxxxxxxxx#’... -
Page 11: O' Command
‘o’ Output: ‘xxxxxxxx@’ where xxxxxxxx is the selected barcode options and @ means the end of data Purpose: Read the barcode options saved in KDC100. Please see the table of command ‘O’ for detail explanation of options ‘P’ command Parameters: None. -
Page 12: P' Command
Output: A multi-byte string (see below). KDC100 sends only one barcode data at one time. Purpose: Read the Nth barcodes data stored in KDC100 internal flash memory. Does not erase the barcode. Where: S : Start byte 0x03(1 byte) N : Total number of bytes to be sent(3 bytes) -
Page 13: S' Command
To select a symbology, set the appropriate bit to ‘1’ in the parameter. Symbology bit# Symbology bit# EAN13 EAN128 EAN8 Code93 UPCA Code35 UPCE BooklandEAN Code39 EAN13withAddon ITF14 EAN8withAddon Code128 UPCAwithAddon I2of5 UPCEwithAddon Codabar PDF417 ‘s’ command Parameters: None Format: ‘s’ Output: ‘xxxxxxxx@’... -
Page 14: U' Command
Purpose: Selects how KDC100 handles scanned barcode. If the value xxxx is 0: KDC100 doesn’t store scanned barcode in the memory and just transmits it to the host. 1: KDC100 stores scanned data in the memory and transmits it to the host. -
Page 15: W' Command
HOST again. KDC100 will attempt 10 times until it gets a response from HOST. Data Format KDC100 supports two kind of data format when sending data to HOST as the following: PAYLOAD only Barcode data... -
Page 16: Z' Command
KDC100 Programming Manual C : Total number of each barcode data(1 byte) Y : Type of each barcode(1 byte) D : Actual barcode data of each barcode(variable size) T : Timestamp of each barcode(4 bytes) K : Check sum byte(1 byte). All sum except S should be 0. -
Page 17: Packet Data
Wedge mode If KDC100 read a barcode and configured to send packet data, KDC100 waits for 1 second to get a response from HOST after sending a read barcode data to HOST. KDC100 goes to ready mode upon receiving either success or failure response. -
Page 18: Synchronization Mode
KDC100 exits waiting state if it receives any response from HOST. KDC100 replies to HOST with sending ‘@’ for a success response. KDC100 waits for 1 second and exits waiting state with sending a ‘!’ to HOST if there is no response from HOST. -
Page 19: Miscellaneous
Miscellaneous KDC100 sends "?" character. “?” is sent by KDC100 when the device receives undefined character (command) from Host. Application would ignore “?” character... -
