  • Page 5: Notes About Structure And Electric Circuit Design

    Notes about structure and electric circuit design 1. The scanner must be electrically isolated. 2. Leave sufficient space to accommodate the maximum size of the scanner. When selecting any trigger mode, the ambient temperature should not exceed the maximum operating temperature of the scanner. If the temperature exceeds the maximum operating temperature, the performance of the scanner may be reduced, the life of the product may be shortened, and permanent damage may occur to the scanner.

    4 Serial Communication Interface (SCI) Note: The SCI programming commands can be used in place of the programming barcodes. All communication between the scanner and host occurs over the hardware interface lines using the Serial Communication Interface (SCI). The function of the SCI show as below: Maintain a bi-directional communication interface between the scanner and the host.

  • Page 98: Examples Of Setting And Query Commands

    4-2 Examples of setting and query commands The following examples illustrate how a command should be constructed and transmitted to the scanner. Example 1: Append prefix “1N” to all symbols Step 1: Set Prefix string setting to be “1N”. Look up the parameter table in 6 Parameter Menus and the ASCII table in 11 ASCII table. The target parameter index is “8001”.
  • Page 99 Example 2: Query current scan mode Look up the parameter table in 6 Parameter Menus and the ASCII table in 11 ASCII table. The target parameter index is “0401”. The numeral system is decimal, thus, ‘D’ is used. The value field is filled with ‘?’. Put all above parts and then append a storage indicator ‘.’...
