The QC 1D SERIES has been properly configured for most applications and can be put into use without further configuration. Users may check the Factory Defaults Table in Appendix for reference.
** Enter Setup Barcode Programming The QC 1D SERIES can be configured by scanning programming barcodes. All user programmable features/options are described along with their programming barcodes/commands in the following sections. Enter/Exit Setup ** Enter Setup Exit Setup Programming Barcode Data...
** Enter Setup Factory Defaults Scanning the following barcode can restore the scanner to the factory defaults. You may need to reset your scanner when: 1. scanner is not properly configured so that it fails to decode barcodes; 2. you forget previous configuration and want to avoid its impact; 3.
** Enter Setup Chapter 2 Scan Mode Manual Mode Manual Mode (default): A trigger pull activates a decode session. The decode session continues until the barcode is decoded or the trigger is released or the decode session timeout expires. ** Manual Mode Decode Session Timeout: This parameter sets the maximum time decode session continues during a scan attempt.
** Enter Setup Continuous Mode Continuous Mode: A trigger press activates the scanner to scan and decode at user-specified intervals, i.e. the timeout between decodes. Each decode session lasts until barcode is decoded or the decode session timeout expires. To suspend/resume the operation, simply press the trigger. Continuous Mode Decode Session Timeout: This parameter sets the maximum time decode session continues during a scan attempt.
Page 16
** Enter Setup Timeout between Decodes:This parameter sets the timeout between decode sessions. When a decode session ends, next session will not happen until the timeout between decodes expires. It is programmable in 0.1s increments from 0.0s to 25.5s. The default timeout is 1.0s. Timeout between Decodes Example: Set the timeout between decodes to 5s Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
Page 17
** Enter Setup Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) can avoid undesired rereading of same barcode in a given period of time. This parameter sets the timeout between decodes for same barcode. It is programmable in 0.1s increments from 0.1s to 25.5s. The default timeout is 3.0s. If the parameter is set to 0, the timeout between decodes (same barcode) is infinite.
** Enter Setup Sense Mode Sense Mode: The scanner activates a decode session every time when it detects a change in ambient illumination and meets the requirement of the image stabilization timeout. Decode session continues until barcode is decoded or the decode session timeout expires. Sense Mode Decode Session Timeout: This parameter sets the maximum time decode session continues during a scan attempt.
Page 19
** Enter Setup Image Stabilization Timeout: The scanner waits for the image stabilization timeout to expire before activating a decode session every time it detects a change in ambient illumination. This parameter is programmable in 0.1s increments from 0.0s to 25.5s. Image Stabilization Timeout Example: Set the Image Stabilization Timeout to 5s Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
Page 20
** Enter Setup Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) can avoid undesired rereading of same barcode in a given period of time. This parameter sets the timeout between decodes for same barcode. It is programmable in 0.1s increments from 0.1s to 25.5s. The default timeout is 3.0s. If the parameter is set to 0, the timeout between decodes (same barcode) is infinite.

** Enter Setup Convert Case This parameter is valid when the Standard Keyboard or Function Key Mapping is enabled. ** No Case Conversion Convert All to Upper Case Convert All to Lower Case Invert Upper and Lower Case Characters Example: When the Invert Upper and Lower Case Characters feature is enabled, barcode data “AbC” is transmitted as “aBc”.
** Enter Setup Emulate Numeric Keypad When this feature is disabled, sending barcode data is emulated as keystroke(s) on main keyboard. To enable this feature, scan the Emulate Numeric Keypad barcode. Sending a number (0-9) is emulated as keystroke on numeric keypad, whereas sending other character like “+”, “_”, “*” , “/” and “.” is still emulated as keystroke on main keyboard.
** Enter Setup USB DataPipe A driver is required when using this protocol to communicate with the scanner. USB DataPipe USB COM Port Emulation This feature allows the host to receive data in the way as a serial port does. However, you need to set communication parameters on the scanner to match the Host requirements.
** Enter Setup HID-POS The HID-POS interface is recommended for new application programs. It can send up to 56 characters in a single USB report and appears more efficient than USB HID-KBW. Features: HID based, no custom driver required. ...

The ADVANCODE 2D BARCODE SCANNER support all mainstream 1D and standard 2D barcode symbologies (e.g., PDF417, QR Code M1/M2/Micro and Data Matrix) as well as GS1-DataBarTM(RSS) (Limited/Stacked/Expanded versions).
Powered by area-imaging technology, the ADVANCODE 2D BARCODE SCANNER features fast scanning and accurate decoding. Barcodes rotated at any angle can still be read with ease. When scanning a barcode, simply center the aiming beam or pattern projected by the ADVANCODE 2D BARCODE SCANNER over the barcode.
Enter Setup Factory Defaults Scanning the following barcode can restore the scanner to the factory defaults. See Appendix 1: Factory Defaults Table for more information. Note: Use this feature with discretion. Restore All Factory Defaults Custom Defaults Custom defaults make it possible to save the frequently-used settings on the scanner. Scanning the Save as Custom Defaults barcode can save the current settings as custom defaults.
Enter Setup Chapter 2 Communication Interfaces The ADVANCODE 2D BARCODE SCANNER provides a RS-232 interface and a USB interface to communicate with the host device. The host device can receive scanned data and send commands to control the scanner or to access/alter the configuration information of the scanner via the interface.
Enter Setup RS-232 Interface Serial communication interface is usually used when connecting the scanner to a host device (like PC, POS). However, to ensure smooth communication and accuracy of data, you need to set communication parameters (including baud rate, parity check, data bit and stop bit) to match the host device. The serial communication interface provided by the scanner is based on TTL-level signals.
Page 161
Enter Setup Baud Rate Baud rate is the number of bits of data transmitted per second. Set the baud rate to match the Host requirements. ** 9600 1200 19200 2400 38400 4800 57600 14400 115200 * Exit Setup...
Enter Setup Parity Check When the number of data bits is set to 7, you can only select either Even Parity or Odd Parity. The None option will be regarded as Even Parity in this case. ** None Even Parity Odd Parity Data Bit When the number of data bits is set to 7, you can only select either Even Parity or Odd Parity.

Enter Setup Beep on Unknown Character Due to the differences in keyboard layouts, some characters contained in barcode data may be unavailable on the selected keyboard. As a result, the scanner fails to transmit the unknown characters. Scan the appropriate barcode below to enable or disable the emission of beep when an unknown character is detected.
Enter Setup Convert Case Scan the appropriate barcode below to convert barcode data to your desired case. ** No Case Conversion Invert Upper and Lower Case Characters Convert All to Upper Case Convert All to Lower Case Example: When the Convert All to Lower Case feature is enabled, barcode data “AbC” is transmitted as “abc”.
Enter Setup Chapter 3 Scan Mode Batch Mode If the Batch Mode is enabled, driving the TRIG pin on the host interface connector low activates a round of multiple decode sessions. This round of multiple scans continues until the active trigger signal is no longer present.
Enter Setup Trigger Mode If the Trigger Mode is enabled, driving the TRIG pin on the host interface connector low activates a decode session. The session continues until the barcode is decoded or decode session timeout expires or the active trigger signal is no longer present. For good decode, the scanner transmits decoded data via communication port.
Enter Setup Level Trigger/Pulse Trigger Level trigger: Decode session is activated and continued by constant active trigger signal. The decode session ends once the barcode is decoded or decode session timeout expires. Pulse trigger: Decode session is activated by electric pulse of trigger signal. The decode session continues until the barcode is decoded or decode session timeout expires.
Enter Setup Sense Mode If the Sense Mode is enabled, the scanner activates a decode session every time it detects a change in ambient illumination. The decode session continues until the barcode is decoded or the decode session timeout expires. Driving the TRIG pin on the host interface connector low can also activate a decode session.
Enter Setup Continue after Good Decode Continue after Good Decode: The scanner starts next decode session after good decode. Pause after Good Decode: The scanner starts another round of illumination monitoring and image stabilization after good decode. ** Pause after Good Decode Continue after Good Decode Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) can avoid undesired rereading of same barcode in a given...
Enter Setup The following parameter sets the timeout between decodes for same barcode. It is programmable in 1ms increments from 0ms to 65,535ms. The default setting is 1,500ms. To learn how to program this parameter, see Appendix 5. Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) Sensitivity Sensitivity specifies the degree of acuteness of the scanner’s response to changes in ambient illumination.
Page 175
Enter Setup If the above four options fail to meet your needs, you may program the threshold value of illumination change. Illumination changes that reaches or surpasses the predefined threshold value will cause the scanner to start a decode session. The lower the threshold value, the greater the sensitivity of the scanner. The default threshold value is 2.
Enter Setup Continuous Mode This mode enables the scanner to scan/capture, decode and transmit over and over again. When the scanner is operating in Continuous Mode, barcode reading can be suspended/resumed through control over the trigger signal. When barcode reading is in progress, negating the trigger signal after having maintained it for 30ms or longer will suspend barcode reading;...
Enter Setup Chapter 4 Scanning Preferences Introduction This chapter contains information as to how to adapt your scanner to various applications with preference setting. For instance, to narrow the field of view of the scanner to make sure it reads only those barcodes intended by the user.
Enter Setup Specify Central Area The default central area is a (Width*20%) by (Height*20%) area in the center of the scanner’s field of view, as shown in the figure below. You can define the central area by scanning the Specify Central Area barcode and numeric barcode(s) corresponding to a desired percentage (1-100).
Enter Setup Chapter 5 Illumination & Aiming Illumination A couple of illumination options are provided to improve the lighting conditions during every image capture: Normal: Illumination LEDs are turned on during image capture. Always ON: Illumination LEDs keep ON after the scanner is powered on. OFF: Illumination LEDs are OFF all the time.
Enter Setup Aiming When scanning/capturing image, the scanner projects an aiming pattern which allows positioning the target barcode within its field of view and thus makes decoding easier. Normal: The scanner projects an aiming pattern only during barcode scanning/capture. Always ON: Aiming pattern is constantly ON after the scanner is powered on. OFF: Aiming pattern is OFF all the time.
Enter Setup Chapter 6 Beep & LED Indications Startup Beep If startup beep is enabled, the scanner will beep after being turned on. ** Enable Startup Beep Disable Startup Beep * Exit Setup...
