If connecting the Development Engine using an RS-232 interface, all communication parameters between the imager and terminal must match for correct data transfer through the serial port using RS-232 protocol.
  • Page 12 Reading Techniques The engine has a view finder that projects a bright red or green aiming beam that corresponds to the engine’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam should be centered over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for a good read.

  • Page 13: Chapter 2 - Getting Connected

    Getting Connected Plug and Play Plug and Play bar codes provide instant engine set up for commonly used interfaces. Note: After you scan one of the codes, power cycle the host terminal to have the interface in effect. RS-232 The RS-232 Interface bar code is used when connecting to the serial port of a PC or terminal.

  • Page 14: Ibm Surepos

    IBM SurePos Scan one of the following “Plug and Play” codes to program the SC-2125 for IBM SurePos (USB Handheld imager) or IBM SurePos (USB Tabletop imager). Note: After scanning one of these codes, you must power cycle the cash register.

  • Page 15: Usb Com Port Emulation

    USB COM Port Emulation Scan the following code to program the SC-2125 to emulate a regular RS- ® ® 232-based COM port. If you are using a Microsoft Windows PC, you will need a driver from the CD-ROM The driver will use the next available COM port number. Apple® Macintosh computers recognize the engine as a USB CDC class device and automatically use a class driver.

  • Page 16: Terminal Id

    Terminal Interfaces Terminal ID If you want to change the pre-programmed interface of your image engine, refer Supported Terminals, below. For example, a USB HID POS device has a Terminal ID of 131. You would scan the Terminal ID bar code, then 1, 3, 1 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual, then Save.

  • Page 17: Rs-232 Baud Rate

    RS-232 Baud Rate Baud Rate sends the data from the imager to the terminal at the specified rate. The host terminal must be set for the same baud rate as the imager. Default = 115,200 . 1200 2400 4800 9600 19200 38400 57,600...

  • Page 18: Rs-232 Word Length: Data Bits, Stop Bits, And Parity

    RS-232 Word Length: Data Bits, Stop Bits, and Parity Data Bits sets the word length at 7 or 8 bits of data per character. If an application requires only ASCII Hex characters 0 through 7F decimal (text, digits, and punctuation), select 7 data bits. For applications which require use of the full ASCII set, select 8 data bits per character.

  • Page 19: Rs-232 Receiver Time-Out

    RS-232 Receiver Time-Out The unit stays awake to receive data until the RS-232 Receiver Time-Out expires. A trigger command resets the time-out. When an RS-232 receiver is sleeping, a character may be sent to wake up the receiver and reset the time-out. A transaction on the CTS line will also wake up the receiver.

  • Page 20: Ttl Level 232 Interface

    CTS signal is detected at any time, the imager halts transmission until it detects another active CTS signal. When the imager has finished transmitting data, it issues an inactive RTS signal to the receiving device. Default = RTS/CTS Off, XON/XOFF Off, and ACK/NAK Off . RTS/CTS On * RTS/CTS Off XON/XOFF On...
  • Page 21 Note: For further information on the TTL Level 232 Interface, refer to the SC-2125 80 Integration Manual. Default = TTL Level 232 Inverted with Polarity Override. TTL Level 232 Inverted TTL Level 232 Non-Inverted * TTL Level 232 Inverted with Polarity Override 3 - 6...

  • Page 22: Chapter 4 - Output

    Output Image VGA You can set the image size to a VGA resolution, if necessary, to accommodate older applications that require a smaller image size. When Image VGA is set to On, the resultant image is 640x480 pixels. When Image VGA is Off, your image is 752x480 pixels.

  • Page 23: Beeper Volume - Good Read

    Beeper Volume – Good Read The beeper volume codes modify the volume of the beep the imager emits on a good read. Default = High for the SC-2125 Medium High Beeper Pitch – Good Read The beeper pitch codes modify the pitch (frequency) of the beep the imager emits on a good read.

  • Page 24: Beeper Duration - Good Read

    Beeper Duration – Good Read The beeper duration codes modify the length of the beep the imager emits on a good read. Default = Normal. * Normal Beep Short Beep LED – Good Read The LED indicator can be programmed On or Off in response to a good read. Default = On.

  • Page 25: Number Of Beeps - Good Read

    If the LED is enabled for a good read (see LED – Good Read on page 4-3), the polarity change takes effect after the next successful decode or a power cycle. If the LED is disabled, a polarity change only takes effect after a power cycle. Default = Active Low.

  • Page 26: Beep Polarity

    Beep Polarity If the beeper is enabled for a good read (see Beeper – Good Read on page 4-1), the polarity change takes effect after the next successful decode or a power cycle. If the beeper is disabled, a polarity change only takes effect after a power cycle.

  • Page 27: Good Read Delay

    Good Read Delay This sets the minimum amount of time before the imager can read another bar code. Default = No Delay. * No Delay Short Delay (500 ms) Medium Delay (1,000 ms) Long Delay (1,500 ms) User-Specified Good Read Delay If you want to set your own length for the good read delay, scan the bar code below, then set the delay (from 0-30,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the inside back cover, then scanning Save .
  • Page 28 When in serial mode, the imager scans until a bar code has been read or until the deactivate command is sent. In serial mode, the imager can also be set to turn itself off after a specified time has elapsed (see Read Time-Out, which follows).

  • Page 29: Snap And Ship

    If the unit remains idle during the low power time-out interval, the unit goes into low power mode. Whenever the trigger is enabled, the low power time-out timer is reset. Low Power Time-Out Note: This time-out does not begin until the imager time-out setting has expired. Snap and Ship Snap and Ship mode allows you to bypass the decoder and ship an image directly to the host.

  • Page 30: Scan Stand Mode

    Scan Stand Mode When a unit is in Scan Stand mode, it remains idle as long as it sees the Scan Stand symbol. (See Scan Stand Symbol that follows.) When a different code is presented, the Imager is triggered to read the new code. Note:The imager automatically adjusts the illumination LEDs to the lowest light level possible to maintain a good lock on the Scan Stand symbol.

  • Page 31: Presentation Led Behavior After Decode

    Presentation LED Behavior after Decode When an imager is in presentation mode, the LEDs remain on and continue scanning for a short time after a bar code is decoded. If you wish to turn the LEDs off immediately after a bar code is decoded, scan the LEDs Off bar code, below.

  • Page 32: Hands Free Time-Out

    Hands Free Time-Out The Scan Stand and Presentation Modes are referred to as “hands free” modes. If a trigger command is sent, or the hardware trigger is pulled when using a hands free mode, the imager changes to manual trigger mode. You can set the time the imager should remain in manual trigger mode by setting the Hands Free Time-Out.

  • Page 33: User-Specified Reread Delay

    User-Specified Reread Delay If you want to set your own length for the reread delay, scan the bar code below, then set the delay (from 0-30,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the inside back cover, then scanning Save . User-Specified Reread Delay LED Power Level This selection allows you to adjust LED and aimer brightness.

  • Page 34: Illumination Lights

    Illumination Lights If you want the illumination lights on while reading a bar code, scan the Lights On bar code, below. However, if you want to turn just the lights off, scan the Lights Off bar code. Note: This setting does not affect the aimer light. The aiming light can be set using Aimer Modes (page 4-14).

  • Page 35: Aimer Delay

    Aimer Delay The aimer delay allows a delay time for the operator to aim the imager before the picture is taken. Use these codes to set the time between when the trigger is activated and when the picture is taken. During the delay time, the aiming light will appear, but the LEDs won’t turn on until the delay time is over.

  • Page 36: Thermal Considerations

    Concurrent Concurrent mode is provided for backwards compatibility with the 4X00 Image Engine series, and is not recommended for most applications. In concurrent mode, the illumination LEDs are on continuously, while the aimer LEDs turn off during the imager exposure period, and on while the imager is not exposing. Concurrent mode is used to eliminate any flicker of the illumination LEDs that may be objectionable to the user, especially when running the engine at 12 MHz.

  • Page 37: Centering

    The Power Control PWM can be used to reduce the effect of the illumination LEDs on thermal rise, however, this also reduces the intensity of the illumination. Reducing the intensity of the illumination reduces total power used but can also reduce the depth of field in low light environments.
  • Page 38 The default centering window is a 128x96 pixel area (640x480 default image size) in the center of the imager’s field of view. The following diagram illustrates the default top, bottom, left, and right pixel positions, measured from the top and the left side of the imager’s field of view.

  • Page 39: Decode Search Mode

    Decode Search Mode There are three selectable decode (scanning) modes: Full Omnidirectional - Searches for bar code features beginning at the center of an image, and searches to the image’s limits. This mode reads all symbologies (including OCR), in any orientation. The Full Omnidirectional search is very thorough which may slow performance time.

  • Page 40: Output Sequence Overview

    Output Sequence Overview Require Output Sequence When turned off, the bar code data will be output to the host as the Imager decodes it. When turned on, all output data must conform to an edited sequence or the Imager will not transmit the output data to the host device. Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection is turned on.
  • Page 41 Other Programming Selections • Discard This exits without saving any Output Sequence changes. Output Sequence Example In this example, you are scanning Code 93, Code 128, and Code 39 bar codes, but you want the imager to output Code 39 1st, Code 128 2nd, and Code 93 3rd, as shown below.
  • Page 42 code identifier for Code 93 9999 code length that must match for Code 93, 9999 = all lengths start character match for Code 93, 43h = “C” termination string for third code To program the previous example using specific lengths, you would have to count any programmed prefixes, suffixes, or formatted characters as part of the length.

  • Page 43: Output Sequence Editor

    Output Sequence Editor Enter Sequence Default Sequence Require Output Sequence When an output sequence is Required , all output data must conform to an edited sequence or the imager will not transmit the output data to the host device. When it’s On/Not Required , the imager will attempt to get the output data to conform to an edited sequence, but if it cannot, the imager transmits all output data to the host device as is.

  • Page 44: No Read

    When this programming selection is turned On , it allows you to read multiple symbols when the trigger is activated. If you press and hold the trigger, aiming the Imager at a series of symbols, it reads unique symbols once, beeping (if turned on) for each read.

  • Page 45: Print Weight

    Print Weight Print Weight is used to adjust the way the imager reads Matrix symbols. If a imager will be seeing consistently heavily printed matrix symbols, then a print weight of 6 may improve the reading performance. For consistently light printing, a print weight of 2 may help.

  • Page 46: Working Orientation

    Working Orientation Some bar codes are direction-sensitive. For example, Kix codes and OCR can misread when scanned sideways or upside down. Use the working orientation settings if your direction-sensitive codes will not usually be presented upright to the scanner. Default = Upright. Upright: Rotate Clockwise 90°: Upside Down:...

  • Page 47: Chapter 5 - Data Editing

    Data Editing Prefix/Suffix Overview When a bar code is scanned, additional information is sent to the host computer along with the bar code data. This group of bar code data and additional, user-defined data is called a “message string.” The selections in this section are used to build the user-defined data into the message string.

  • Page 48: To Add A Prefix Or Suffix

    To Add a Prefix or Suffix: Step 1. Scan the Add Prefix or Add Suffix symbol (page 5-4). Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in Appendix A) for the symbology to which you want to apply the prefix or suffix.

  • Page 49: To Clear One Or All Prefixes Or Suffixes

    To Clear One or All Prefixes or Suffixes: You can clear a single prefix or suffix, or clear all prefixes/suffixes for a symbology. When you Clear One Prefix (Suffix), the specific character you select is deleted from the symbology you want. When you Clear All Prefixes (Suffixes), all the prefixes or suffixes for a symbology are deleted.

  • Page 50: Prefix Selections

    Prefix Selections Add Prefix Clear One Prefix Clear All Prefixes Suffix Selections Add Suffix Clear One Suffix Clear All Suffixes Function Code Transmit When this selection is enabled and function codes are contained within the scanned data, the imager transmits the function code to the terminal. Default = Enable.

  • Page 51: Intercharacter, Interfunction, And Intermessage Delays

    Intercharacter, Interfunction, and Intermessage Delays Some terminals drop information (characters) if data comes through too quickly. Intercharacter, interfunction, and intermessage delays slow the transmission of data, increasing data integrity. Each delay is composed of a 5 millisecond step. You can program up to 99 steps (of 5 ms each) for a range of 0-495 ms.

  • Page 52: User Specified Intercharacter Delay

    Note:Intercharacter delays are not supported in USB serial emulation. User Specified Intercharacter Delay An intercharacter delay of up to 495 milliseconds may be placed after the transmission of a particular character of scanned data.

  • Page 115: Chapter 8 - Imaging Commands

    Imaging Commands Imaging Commands with their modifiers send imaging commands to the imager on a single-use basis, and take effect for the next subsequent image capture. Once that capture is complete, the imager reverts to its imaging default settings. If you wish to change a default setting, you must use the serial default command (see Imaging Default Commands on page 11-19).

  • Page 116: Image Ship - Imgshp

    G - Gain: This modifier boosts the signal and multiplies the pixel value. The range is 1-8. No gain (default) Medium gain Heavy gain Maximum gain D - Delta for Acceptance: This sets the allowable range for the white value setting (see W - Target White Value).

  • Page 117: Imgshp Modifiers

    The image ship command has many different modifiers that can be used to change the look of the image output by the scanner. Modifiers affect the image that is transmitted, but do not affect the image in memory. Modifiers always begin with numbers and end with a letter (case insensitive).

  • Page 123: Chapter 9 - Ocr Programming

    OCR Programming Use this section to program the Imager for optical character recognition (OCR). The 2D OEM Engine reads 6 to 60 point OCR typeface. Note: OCR is not as secure as bar codes. To enhance security in OCR applications, create an OCR template to match the data, and print an OCR check character.
  • Page 124 OCR-A On allows you to scan characters in the OCR-A font. The default setting allows you to scan any eight digit combination. If you have created an OCR template, character combinations that fit the template can be scanned (see Creating an OCR Template, page 9-4).

  • Page 125: Ocr Templates

    Note: TOAD characters (Transit, On Us, Amount and Dash) are output in the following manner: the transit character is output as T the amount character is output as A the on us character is output as O the dash character is output as D SEMI Font SEMI Font On allows you to scan the SEMI font used in the semiconductor industry.

  • Page 126: Creating An Ocr Template

    Creating an OCR Template A single template allows you to program the imager to read any combination of characters in the order you specify. Refer to examples that follow the Template Characters table below.

Use the Programming Chart (inside the back cover) to scan the numbers that represent these characters. Example: You need to read three digits, three specific characters (ABC), three digits.

  • Page 128: Stringing Together Multiple Formats (Creating "Or" Statements)

    Stringing Together Multiple Formats (Creating “Or” Statements) You may want to program the imager to accept many OCR formats. To do this, you would string together each format with a “t.” This tells the imager to read optical characters that match any one of the formats in the template. Example: You need to read any combination of eight digits, or a combination of four digits, two uppercase letters, and two digits.

  • Page 129: Reading Multi-Row Ocr

    This template would then let you read data that began with six digits, and had an A, B, or C trailing. So you would be able to read: 654321ABC 654321BAC 654321CCC Reading Multi-Row OCR The IT5X80 is capable of decoding multi-row OCR text. Note: Reading rows longer than sixteen characters is not recommended.

  • Page 130: Ocr Check Character

    OCR Check Character You may want to print and verify a check character in order to enhance the security of your OCR application. The IT5X80 can be programmed for almost any type of check character. A number of presets are provided for common check character uses (e.g., modulo 10 and modulo 36).

    2. Enter the characters in order. For each character, look up the corresponding hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-4. Use the Programming Chart on the inside the back cover of this manual to scan the two symbols for each hex value. 3.
  • Page 133 Since the result is zero, the message is considered to be valid, so the reader outputs the message: 0123456 2-1-2-1 Weighted Modulo 10 Check Character Starting with the check character and working backward through the message, the imager applies a multiplier of 1, then 2, then 1, then 2, and so on. When the result of the multiplication is greater than 9, add both digits to the running sum.

  • Page 134: Ocr Isbn Application Example

    OCR ISBN Application Example One application of OCR is to read the ISBN characters typically encoded using the OCR-A or OCR-B font. This is especially useful when the ISBN number is not encoded in an EAN-13 bar code. The following example shows how to configure the imager to read the ISBN strings on books in Japan.
