This user’s manual mainly provides instruction on configuring MT82Ag. By scanning the configuration barcodes in this manual, you can change MT82Ag’s interface, reading mode, data format and so on. The appendix lists the default configurations of MT82Ag. In most cases, user can use MT82Ag without further configuration.
1.5 Custom Default You can create your own custom default. Scan Save Custom Default configuration barcode below and all the current settings of MT82Ag will be saved to your custom default, overwriting, if any, the previous one. Scan Custom Default to reset MT82Ag to the custom default settings.
MT82Ag provides UART serial interface and multiple USB interfaces to communicate with the host. Through communication interface, it is possible to receive barcode data and send command to control MT82Ag at the same time. 2.1 UART Scanning below configuration barcode will set MT82Ag to UART interface, which is based on TTL level signals.
MT82Ag User’s Manual V1.7 Even 2.2 USB HID Scanning below configuration barcode will set MT82Ag to USB HID interface, in which MT82Ag becomes an HID keyboard device. USB HID* 2.2.1 Intercharacter Delay Intercharacter delay is the time interval between the release of last key and the pressing of the next key.
MT82Ag User’s Manual V1.7 2.2.2 Polling Rate The smaller the value, the faster MT82Ag sends characters to the host. If the host loses characters, please increase polling rate. 1ms* 10ms ___________________________________________________________________________________...

When Alt Code is enabled, transmission speed will be slower because all keyboard data is sent by key combinations.
MT82Ag User’s Manual V1.7 Mode 2 Mode 3 2.2.5 Control Mode Control Code (0x00~0x1F) can be transmitted with two different set of key code depending on Control Mode status. Please refer to Appendix E for corresponding key code for each Control Code.
MT82Ag User’s Manual V1.7 2.3 USB VCP When configured to USB VCP interface, MT82Ag can communicate with the host via USB Virtual COM, which requires VCP driver to be installed. USB VCP 2.4 HID POS When configured to USB HID POS interface, MT82Ag can communicate with the host via USB HID, which requires no driver.
3. Reading Mode 3.1 Batch Mode In batch mode, MT82Ag starts scanning barcode when trigger pin = low. If trigger stays low, the scanning continues, with each barcode scanned once. To restart a new batch reading, the host must reset trigger level first and then pull trigger low again.
MT82Ag User’s Manual V1.7 Level* Pulse 3.2.2 LED Timeout LED timeout is the maximum scanning duration. When LED timeout expires, the scanning operation stops automatically. The configurable range is from 1000 to 3600000ms; default is 3000ms. Please refer to Appendix D for configuration method of Set LED Timeout.
3.3 Auto-sensing Mode In auto-sensing mode, MT82Ag automatically starts scanning barcode when image change is detected within its field of view. MT82Ag can still be triggered if trigger is pull low. When trigger level is reset or LED timeout expires, the scanning stops.
MT82Ag User’s Manual V1.7 3.3.1 LED Timeout LED timeout is the maximum scanning duration. When LED timeout expires, the scanning operation stops automatically. The configurable range is from 1000 to 3600000ms; default is 3000ms. Please refer to Appendix D for configuration method of Set LED Timeout.

Continuous Mode 3.4.1 LED Timeout LED timeout is the maximum scanning duration. When LED timeout expires, the scanning operation stops automatically.
MT82Ag User’s Manual V1.7 3000ms* 5000ms Set LED Timeout 3.4.2 Scan Interval Scan interval is the period of time between two consecutive scans. The configurable range is from 0 to 65535ms; default is 1000ms. Please refer to Appendix D for configuration method of Set Scan Interval.

MT82Ag User’s Manual V1.7 interval is enabled and identical read interval reset is disabled, a barcode (or an identical one) can be re-scanned only after the defined amount of interval expires. When identical read interval is enabled and identical read interval reset is enabled, a barcode (or an identical one) can be re-scanned only if it has not been scanned before the defined amount of interval expires.
