    Connecting EVK to PC The EVK tool is provided to assist users in application development for the EM3296. You can connect the EVK to PC via a USB connection or an RS-232 connection. In case of USB connection, a driver is required if PC wants to communicate with EM3296 and receive decoded data through virtual serial port.

  • Page 14: Barcode Scanning

    EM3296 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 EM3296 over the barcode. Barcode Programming Scanning the Enter Setup barcode can enable the engine to enter the setup mode.

  • Page 15: Factory Defaults

    Enter Setup Factory Defaults Scanning the following barcode can restore the engine 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 engine. Scanning the Save as Custom Defaults barcode can save the current settings as custom defaults.

  • Page 16: Chapter 2 Communication Interfaces

    Enter Setup Chapter 2 Communication Interfaces The EM3296 provides a TTL-232 interface and a USB interface (optional) to communicate with the host device. The host device can receive scanned data and send commands to control the engine or to access/alter the configuration information of the engine via the interface.

  • Page 17: Ttl-232 Interface

    Enter Setup TTL-232 Interface Serial communication interface is usually used when connecting the engine 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 engine is based on TTL-level signals.

  • Page 18: Baud Rate

    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...

  • Page 19: Parity Check

    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.

  • Page 33: Chapter 3 Scan Mode

    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.

  • Page 34: Trigger Mode

    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 read, the engine transmits decoded data via communication port.

  • Page 35: Level Trigger/Pulse Trigger

    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.

  • Page 36: Timeout Between Decodes (Same Barcode)

    Enter Setup Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) can avoid undesired rereading of same barcode in a given period of time. To enable/disable the Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode), scan the appropriate barcode below. Enable Timeout between Decodes: Do not allow the engine to re-read same barcode before the timeout between decodes (same barcode) expires.

  • Page 37: Sense Mode

    Enter Setup Sense Mode If the Sense Mode is enabled, the engine 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.

  • Page 38: Timeout Between Decodes (Same Barcode)

    Enter Setup Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) can avoid undesired rereading of same barcode in a given period of time. To enable/disable the Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode), scan the appropriate barcode below. Enable Timeout between Decodes: Do not allow the engine to re-read same barcode before the timeout between decodes (same barcode) expires.

  • Page 39: Sensitivity

    Enter Setup Sensitivity Sensitivity specifies the degree of acuteness of the engine’s response to changes in ambient illumination. The higher the sensitivity, the lower requirement in illumination change to trigger the engine. You can select an appropriate degree of sensitivity that fits the ambient environment. Medium Sensitivity Low Sensitivity High Sensitivity...
  • Page 40 Enter Setup If the above four options fail to meet your needs, you may program the threshold value of illumination change. Illumination changes that reach or surpass the predefined threshold value will cause the engine to start a decode session. The lower the threshold value, the greater the sensitivity of the engine. The default threshold value is 2.

  • Page 41: Continuous Mode

    Enter Setup Continuous Mode This mode enables the engine to scan/capture, decode and transmit over and over again. When the engine 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;...

  • Page 42: Timeout Between Decodes (Same Barcode)

    Enter Setup Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) can avoid undesired rereading of same barcode in a given period of time. To enable/disable the Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode), scan the appropriate barcode below. Enable Timeout between Decodes: Do not allow the engine to re-read same barcode before the timeout between decodes (same barcode) expires.

  • Page 44: Specify Central Area

    Enter Setup Specify Central Area The default central area is a (Width*20%) by (Height*20%) area in the center of the engine’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).

  • Page 45: Chapter 5 Illumination & Aiming

    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 engine is powered on. OFF: Illumination LEDs are OFF all the time.

  • Page 46: Aiming

    Enter Setup Aiming When scanning/capturing image, the engine projects an aiming pattern which allows positioning the target barcode within its field of view and thus makes decoding easier. Normal: The engine projects an aiming pattern only during barcode scanning/capture. Always ON: Aiming pattern is constantly ON after the engine is powered on. OFF: Aiming pattern is OFF all the time.

  • Page 47: Chapter 6 Beep & Led Notifications

    Enter Setup Chapter 6 Beep & LED Notifications Startup Beep If startup beep is enabled, the engine will beep after being turned on. ** Enable Startup Beep Disable Startup Beep Good Read Beep for Non-programming Barcode The engine can provide a PWM output to an external driver circuit to drive a beeper after decoding a non-programming barcode.

Transmit NGR Message ** Do Not Transmit NGR Message Edit NGR Message To edit an NGR message, scan the Edit NGR Message barcode and the numeric barcodes corresponding to the ASCII values (decimal) of desired characters and then scan the Save barcode.

  • Page 51: Chapter 7 Prefix & Suffix

    Enter Setup Chapter 7 Prefix & Suffix In many applications, barcode data needs to be edited and distinguished from one another. Usually AIM ID and Code ID can be used as identifiers, but in some special cases customized prefix and terminating character suffix like Carriage Return or Line Feed can also be the alternatives.

  • Page 52: Global Settings

    Enter Setup Global Settings Enable/Disable All Prefix/Suffix Disable All Prefix/Suffix: Transmit barcode data with no prefix/suffix.
