  • Page 22: Positioning

    TC1100 POSITIONING The TC1100 scanner is able to decode barcode labels at a variety of angles, however significant angular distortion may degrade reading performance. When mounting the TC1100 take into consideration these three ideal label position angles: Pitch 0°, Skew 10° to 30° and Tilt 0°. Follow the suggestions for the best orientation: The Pitch angle is represented by the value P in Figure 23.

  • Page 44: Data Format

    TC1100 DATA FORMAT 4.3.1 Header/Terminator Selection The header/terminator selection is not effected by the reading of the restore default code. In fact, header and terminator default values depend on the interface selection: RS232: no header, terminator CR-LF WEDGE: no header, terminator ENTER These default values are always restored through the reading of RS232 or WEDGE interface selection code, see chapter 3.
  • Page 45 REFERENCES SET CUSTOM EXTENDED HEADER/TERMINATOR KEYS The extended Header/Terminator keys for Wedge Interface users can be customized by defining them through a simple keyboard setting procedure. For example, the Numeric Keypad keys can be set for use as Headers or Terminators by substituting the default extended keys using this procedure.
  • Page 46 TC1100 Set Custom Extended Header/Terminator Keys $+FB1$- Enter the code above. • If the first 4 KEYS (Shift, Alt, Ctrl, and Backspace) are not available on your keyboard, you can only substitute them with keys not used, or substitute them with each other.

  • Page 47: Power Save

    ON-LINE: the TC1100 reader is connected to an external Presence Sensor using EXT TRIG+ and EXT TRIG- inputs. During the active phase of the presence sensor, the TC1100 tries to acquire and correctly decode the code. If the operation is successful, the barcode characters are transmitted on the serial interface in the format defined by the current configuration.
  • Page 48 In this mode the illuminator is always ON and TC1100 is continuously scanning. The reading phase is enabled when a barcode enters the reading zone of the camera and is terminated after a fixed number of scans without a code.

  • Page 49: Reads Per Cycle

    REFERENCES 4.5.2 Reads per Cycle In general, a reading cycle corresponds to the Phase ON / Phase OFF times of a device. The resulting effects of this parameter on code reading depend on other related configuration conditions. Here are the definitions of Phase ON and Phase OFF times. When one read per cycle is selected, the device decodes only one code during the Phase ON period and immediately turns to the Phase OFF.
