Physical Parameters This chapter provides specifications for performance, environmental and electrical parameters. Reference the second chapter of this manual, Site , for physical measurements of all models and Preparation and Installation some accessories. Scanning The scanner has a scan zone between the two windows where the scanner projects laser light in order to scan items.
Physical Parameters Weighing Specifications for scale capacity, settling time, minimum and maximum static weight, zeroing, and warm-up time are given below. For more infor- mation regarding the topic: , refer to the Proper Weighing Technique Opera- chapter of this manual. tion and Maintenance Rated Weight Capacity The scale’s operational weight capacity is:...
Warm-Up Time There are two pertinent warm-up times that apply to the scanner or scan- ner/scale: The two warm-up periods can be performed concurrently, thereby reducing the total required warm-up time to 60 minutes. NOTE Thermal Equilibrium When the unit is moved from a cooler temperature (such as a storage area) to a warmer environment (such as a checkstand location), 60 minutes must be allowed to acclimate the unit to ambient conditions prior to cali- bration or operation.
Electrical Specifications Before installation, always verify that the site’s electrical service meets the scanner/scale’s requirements. The scanner has been engineered for com- patibility with most international electrical systems operating in ranges from 100 to 240VAC at 50-60 Hz. Verify that the power source will sup- ply “clean”...
Laser and Product Safety Laser and Product Safety Laser safety requirements are based on IEC Standard Publication 60825-1 (2001) and CDRH 21CFR, Chapter 1, Subchapter J and (CDRH) Laser Product Performance Standard, User information [1040.10(h)1]: • User Maintenance. No user maintenance of the system other than cleaning of the scan windows is required.
Page 24
Safety precautions to be taken: No adjustments or alteration of the scanner or scanner/scale housing are to be attempted by the user. The failure of the facet wheel motor while the unit is continuing to emit a laser beam causes the emission levels to exceed those for inherently safe CAUTION operation.

Chapter 2 Site Preparation and Installation This chapter provides a reference for preparing most checkstands to receive the scanner or scanner/scale. Included are physical parameters and instructions for checkstand preparation, power and ventilation consider- ations, cable routing information and unit installation. Site Preparation lists all procedures necessary to prepare the checkstand.
Figure 2-1. 9500 Models Model 9501 Model 9502 Pre-Installation Considerations It should be noted that the scope of this manual does not encompass all factors related to worker safety and checkstand design. It does, however, offer a list of considerations that may be helpful in ensuring greater safety and productivity.
Checkstand Design Checkstand Design 1. Select a design which allows load-sharing by several muscle groups (for example designs which allow the cashier to use both hands for scanning and bagging). 2. Select checkstands which deliver products to the cashier on an input belt and do not require the unloading of items from a cart.
Scanner Installation 1. Mount the horizontal surface of the scanner flush with the counter- top to encourage slide scanning rather than lifting. 2. Position the centerline of the scanner read area 8 - 10 inches (20.3 - 25.4 cm) from the edge of the checkstand (cashier side). Scanner Maintenance 1.
Site Preparation Overview Develop a smooth fluid motion during scanning, sharing work equally between hands. Use the entire hand for grasping and lifting items. Since the scanner reads labels on all four sides plus the top and bottom, there is no need to turn a bar code toward either of the scanner windows.
Page 34
Recommended Power Installation: Since the typical grocery envi- ronment includes conveyor belts and electric motors, care should be taken to ensure that the scanner has a supply of “clean” power (power without excessive electrical noise). A wiring diagram shows the recommended wir- ing that will provide the scanner with a “clean”...
Ventilation and Spacing Vertical Clearance: Provision must be made to allow adequate space above the scanner bonnet for removal and replacement of the All Weighs™ Platter (the L-shaped platter). Optimal clearance permits the platter to be grasped at its top vertical edge and lifted for removal without obstruction (such as a fixed keyboard mount or any type of enclosure).
Page 36
• A source of air that provides adequate cooling by convective air flow. DO NOT place the scanner in a close-fitting, fully enclosed checkstand. Pro- vide a MINIMUM of 16 square inches (103.2 square centimeters) of air intake from below the installation for sufficient convective cooling. NOTE If motors, conveyor belts, or other heat producing equipment are located near the scanner, forced air ventilation may be required.
Service Access Service Access The scanner and scanner/scale have been engineered to allow performance of all routine service and maintenance (such as “zeroing” and calibration) without removing the scanner from the checkstand. Additionally all cable connections made at the scanner can be connected and removed while the unit is sitting on the countertop.
Power Installation Reference the wiring diagram in for the recommended fusing Figure 2-4 arrangement. Grounding The AC/DC Power Supply should have an AC outlet with a clean earth ground. If you are not sure how to verify the amount of electrical noise (interference) on the power line, ask a qualified electrician to measure the input line voltage.
Checkstand Preparation Checkstand Preparation Reference . When performing a first time installation into a Figure 2-5 new checkstand, verify before cutting that room will be allowed for ® cabling, the AC/DC Power Supply, and the Sensormatic Controller Box. When making the opening, take extra care to accurately cut to the correct dimensions.
Liquid Spills and Moisture Select a checkstand design which allows fluids to flow through, and directs liquids away from any electronic equipment or storage areas. Counter Cutout The most important consideration when planning the counter opening for the scanner is the operator’s comfortable reaching distance. The ideal, ergonomically sound installation allows items to be directed within easy reach, and a scanning area requiring no lifting or special orientation of items.
Page 41
Counter Cutout 3. Install the AC/DC Power Supply, the Remote Scale Display cable and the interface cable(s) observing the following: Interface cables (and display cable, if applicable) should be routed away from all highly inductive electrical devices, like motors and conveyor belts, and even away from the unit’s power cable if possible.
Checkstand Mounting There are a number of things to take into account when installing the unit into a checkstand. Key factors are ergonomic/worker safety, loading capac- ity and stability. Consider the scanner or scanner/scale’s weight when cal- culating the robustness of construction needed to support it as well as maximum capacity of weighed and scanned items.
Installation Overview The following text describes each of these steps. Unpacking To unpack the unit: • Inspect the package for signs of damage that may have occurred dur- ing shipping. If damage is found, report it to your carrier immedi- ately.
Figure 2-10. Remove Protective Vinyl Protective vinyl MUST be removed from the platter before use. • Proceed to the instructions below. Operational Verification Operational Verification Follow these steps to ensure that your unit has arrived undamaged and is fully functional before installing it in the counter and connecting it to your POS system.
Page 49
Installation Overview When power is applied to the unit, the normal indicator sequence is: • The scanner indicator (top-most, green LED) will be lit (dim) steadily. • The EAS indicator (bottom-most, tri-color LED) will flash ON/ OFF during power-up. Additionally, the 7-segment display will flash the number ‘9’.
Page 50
Scanner: Pass UPC/EAN bar code labels in front of the scanner’s win- dows. Since the interface cable is not yet connected to the POS ter- minal, the scanner may be limited to reading only one or two labels (see the note that follows). The scanner indicates when each label has been successfully read by flashing the green scanner light and emitting a good read tone (beep).
Page 51
Installation Overview Scale: If the Yellow (middle, scale) LED is not lit, press the Scale Zero Push Button momentarily. If the scale is operating correctly, the yel- low LED will illuminate and remain on steady, and the display will show a reading of 0.00 lb (0.000 kg for metric). If the display is blank or a is displayed, it may be necessary to calibrate - 0 -...
Diagnostic Modes Two diagnostic modes are available which allow you to initiate scanner or scale diagnostic tests, as well as verify the scanner’s ability to read bar codes. Scanner Diagnostic Mode While in Scanner Diagnostic Mode, continuous scanning of labels is allowed, permitting the user to scan an unlimited number of bar codes while troubleshooting problems.
Installation Overview Scale Diagnostic Mode To enter Scale Diagnostic Mode, press the Scale Zero Push Button for approximately four seconds. Six rapid tones will be sounded, indicating the unit is leaving normal operation and entering Scale Diagnostic Mode. The Remote Display will flash a ‘1’ across the display while the dignostic routine is being run.

Top Down Checker Side Scan Zone Scan Zone Proper Scanning Technique The scanner was designed to provide the ultimate in ergonomic enhance- ments for Point-Of-Sale (POS) scanning.
Deactivating Security Labels ® ® ® Sensormatic Ultra-Max , Ultra-Strip II and III EAS (Electronic Arti- cle Surveillance) tags can be detected and deactivated by the system. This is accomplished by means of a ScanMax deactivation antenna mounted under the scanner platter (single-antenna models) or both behind the ver- tical window and under the scanner platter (dual-antenna models).
EAS Deactivation Indicators The scanner can be programmed to beep in acknowledgement of deactiva- tion or upon deactivation failure. Additionally, the tri-color indicator (the bottom-most LED) displays deactivation status. (For more information about Beeper and LED indications, see the LED/Beeper Indications & Controls chapter of this manual.
Proper Weighing Technique 1. The L-shaped All-Weighs™ platter allows you to place items any- where on its surface, including leaning against its vertical section, to be weighed accurately. The raised “Produce Rail” also provides a convenient way to ensure items do not rest on the counter or other non-weighing surfaces.
Operational Controls The function of scanner and scale controls and indicators is listed in Appendix A, LED/Beeper Indications & Controls. Turn to that appendix for full details. Operational Modes The scanner or scanner/scale features a number of modes that are impor- tant to both the user and the system support personnel.
Operational Modes Error Reporting If a fatal error is detected during Selftest or operation, the unit will not advance to Normal Operation Mode. Selftest diagnostics will cause the unit to sound a long, low tone and/or display an error message on the 7- segment display indicating where the failure occurred.
• When the scanner or scanner/scale completes its Selftest successfully, it emits a tone (when configured to do so) and enters Operating Mode. Operating Mode Operating Mode includes Normal Operation (scanning, EAS deactivation and weighing) and Sleep Mode. These two modes are most commonly observed by the user/operator.
Additional Functions Sleep Mode After the scanner has been left idle for a preset period of time, the laser and/or motor automatically turns off (goes to sleep). This state is called Sleep Mode, and is indicated by a “slow” blink of the green light (blinking at a 2-second rate).
Pressing and holding the Volume/Tone Push Button for approximately eight seconds initiates a reset, which is sounded by a rapid number of beeps. If the motor had been spinning, the lamps will blink while the motor spins down. At that point, the motor will spin back up and the scanner will continue to run the Selftest diagnostics.
Page 81
Additional Functions Calibrating the Scale The second adjustment, calibration, defines and sets a standard reference weight range against which all product weights are compared. If your scale is set for weighing in pounds, this range is 0 - 30 pounds, and, if your scale is set for weighing in kilograms, the range is 0 - 15 kilograms.
Operational Maintenance The scanner or scanner/scale will provide dependable service for many years. The following maintenance procedures will keep your scanner or scanner/scale operating at peak performance. Cleaning the Weigh Platter and Scan Windows Clean the exterior sur- faces of the horizontal and vertical scan windows at least twice daily with a nonabrasive, mild, water-based glass cleaner and paper towels or lint-free cleaning tissues.
Operational Maintenance Vertical Scan Window Replacement The Vertical Scan Window enclosed in the All Weighs™ Platter is a replaceable part. Follow these instructions to remove and replace the win- dow: To remove the Vertical Scan Window: 1. Grasp the platter as shown in Figure 3-3 and gently lift it from the scanner.
Page 84
3. The vertical scan window is held in place by two tabs each on its top and bottom edges. To remove it, carefully push out on the top as shown in Figure 3-4 and lift it out. Carefully dispose of any dam- aged glass.
Operational Maintenance Horizontal Scan Window Replacement (WRG) Wear Resistant Glass (WRG) horizontal scan windows are replaceable and can be removed and replaced following the instructions below. Sapphire glass does not require replacement, so it is permanently fastened in place. Do not attempt to remove Sapphire glass from the platter. NOTE 1.

Chapter 4 Problem Isolation In the event of a suspected functional problem, use the troubleshooting references provided in this chapter. This useful information will help you to identify and resolve the cause of the problem. The scanner/scale has a number of features that indicate when a scanner, EAS deactivation system, or scale problem occurs.
Operational Tests These are the tests that run continually during Normal Operation and Sleep Mode. Firmware checks all subsystems, accessory connections and the POS interface to verify everything is operating normally. If a problem is detected at any time, a long, low tone is sounded, an error code is shown on the 7-segment display, and operation may be halted.
Error Codes Error Codes If an error is detected, the scanner will sound a long low tone (for one sec- ond) and alternately flash its LEDs, indicating a failure. Following the long low tone, an error code will appear on the 7-segment display (refer to ).

Chapter 5 Calibration A number of situations require the scale to be calibrated. They are: • at initial installation of the scanner/scale • if the scale cannot be re-zeroed • if you change the weight measure from pounds to kilograms or vice- versa •...
Description of Calibration Sequence The Calibration Sequence sets the scale to an accurate reference point for weighing. This process involves the use of a Field Standard Weight Set (31.5-pounds) for calibration in pounds, (18.5-kilograms) for Metric. Once calibration has been successfully completed, the scanner/scale uses the certified weight as a reference for subsequent weighing activities.
Motion Test Motion Test This test verifies that the scale will not ‘zero’ when the weighing surface of the scanner/scale is in motion. 1. Verify that the Yellow LED is on and the Remote Display reads 0.00 pounds or 0.000 kilograms. 2.
Preparing the Scanner/Scale for Calibration 1. Assure that the scanner/scale is stable, secure and properly installed. (Refer to for instructions Site Preparation and Installation Chapter 2 on the proper installation of the scanner/scale). 2. Power-up the scanner/scale. 3. Allow the unit to reach temperature equilibrium for at least one hour.
Page 105
Calibrating the Scale (Pounds & Kilograms) Figure 5-1. Calibration Access Cover Calibration Cover Calibration Switch 4. Press and release the Calibration Switch to place the scanner/scale in Calibration Mode. The scanner/scale will sound a tone indicating it is in Calibration Mode. If the motor was spinning when you initi- ated Calibration Mode, the motor will stop and the Yellow LED will begin flashing indicating the scale is in Calibration Mode.
Page 106
8. The Yellow LED will extinguish for approximately 10 seconds and the Remote Display will alternately display until the scale is ready to proceed. 9. If the calibration was successful, the speaker sounds a single tone, the Scale Status LED begins blinking again, and “End-” appears in the Remote Display.
Calibration Verification (U.S. Pounds) Calibration Verification (U.S. Pounds) Once you have completed the calibration sequence, you may be required to perform these step-by-step verification procedures. These procedures follow the National Institute of Standards and Technology Handbook-44 guidelines for grocery scale installations. You may be required by state or local law to have these procedures performed by a certified technician or verified by a proper official.
Shift Test The Shift Test checks to ensure that items placed anywhere on the weigh- ing surface of the scanner/scale are weighed properly. Refer to Figure 5-2 when performing this test. 1. Place and remove in succession, a fifteen-pound load on the center of each of the four quadrants (A, B, C, and D in Figure 5-2) of the scanner/scale’s weigh platter.
Calibration Verification (U.S. Pounds) Increasing- Load Test (Phase 2) After completing the Shift Test, you must complete the Increasing Load Test using 20.0, 25.0 and 30.0 pounds of weight. The upper limit of the scale is configurable according to POS interface type and may not necessarily be set at 30 pounds, which is the standard setting.
Decreasing-Load Test This test ensures that the scanner/scale responds properly when a heavy object is followed by a significantly smaller object. 1. Place a 30.0-pound load on the scale and verify that the display shows between 29.99 and 30.01 pounds. If the upper weight limit for your scale is not set at 30 pounds, begin by plac- ing weight equaling your upper limit setting.
Calibration Verification (Kilograms) Calibration Verification (Kilograms) Once you have completed the calibration sequence, you may be required to perform these step-by-step verification procedures. These procedures follow the National Institute of Standards and Technology Handbook-44 guidelines for grocery scale installations. You may be required by state or local law to have these procedures performed by a certified technician or verified by a proper official.

European Shift Test (Metric) CENTER Increasing- Load Test (Phase 2) After completing the Shift Test, you must complete the Increasing Load Test using 10.00, 12.50 and 15 kilograms of weight. The upper limit of the scale is configurable according to POS interface type and may not necessarily be set at 15 kilograms, which is the standard setting.
Blanking Test This test ensures that the scanner/scale will indicate its weighing capability has been exceeded if a weight greater than 0.82 over its maximum upper weight limit is placed upon the unit. 1. Place weights that total the upper limit plus 0.82 kilograms on the weigh platter.
Calibration Verification (Kilograms) Decreasing-Load Test This test ensures that the scanner/scale responds properly when a heavy object is followed by a significantly smaller object. 1. Place weights that total 15.8 kilograms. If the upper weight limit for your scale is not set at 15 kilograms, begin by placing weight equaling your upper limit setting plus 0.8 kilograms.
Chapter 6 Programming Introduction to Label Programming The programming bar code labels contained in this manual will allow you to customize and configure features and settings for your scanner (scan- ner/scale). To ensure full compatibility and proper function, use only the programming bar codes in this manual and other product-specific publi- cations to program scanner features.
Integrating the Scanner With Your Host System Your scanner MUST be equipped with the correct hardware (interface board, cable, etc.) to properly communicate with your host system. Con- tact your dealer for information if you have questions about your scanner’s hardware compatibility.
Page 119
Integrating the Scanner With Your Host Sys- • Interface Related Features — are the mandatory settings necessary to allow communication with your host terminal. Examples of these settings are: RS-232 baud rate and parity. It is possible, via programming bar codes, to change the interface type (for example: from RS-232 to IBM Port 17).
The scanner can also accept programming via its auxilliary port using a handheld scanning device. Eligible handheld devices must have the ability to transmit Code 128 function codes such as the programming bar codes ® presented in this manual. Datalogic models QuickScan 1000 and ® QuickScan 6000 support this functionality.
Programming Overview What Is Programming Mode? Programming Mode is a state in which the scanner must be placed in order to accept commands via programming bar code labels. When pro- gramming using the bar code labels in this manual, the scanner is typically placed in Programming Mode by scanning the SWITCH label.
Programming Session A typical programming session is conducted as follows: 1. Scan the SWITCH bar code to place the scanner in Programming Mode. Depending upon its current programming, the scanner may emit a beep or beeps, indicating it has read the bar code and the scanner (top) green LED will flash on and off slowly while the scan- ner remains in Programming Mode.
Page 123
Programming Overview It is recommended that programming sessions be limited to one feature at a time. Should you make a mistake in the programming sequence, it can be difficult to discover where an error has been made if several features are pro- grammed at once.
Programming Sequence To modify a scanner feature (item), the programming bar codes contained in this manual must be scanned in a given sequence depending upon the feature being programmed (as shown in ). There are three possi- Table 6-1 ble programming sequences: If the scanner’s interface type must be changed, always be sure that interface configuration is the FIRST item scanned during a programming session.

LED and Beeper Indicators The scanner provides a set of indicators that verify/announce the various scanner functions. If You Make a Mistake... If, during a programming session, you find that you are unsure of the scanner’s settings or wish to reset the scanner’s configuration, use the Return to Factory Settings label below to return the scanner’s configura- tion to the factory settings.
If You Make a Mistake... Test Mode Use this feature to place the scanner into a testing, or “demo” mode. This special mode disables the scanner interface, meaning that bar code data is not sent out to the host via the scanner interface. This allows the bar code to be scanned continuously without requiring a response from the POS terminal.
General Scanner and Scale Features Double Read Timeout The Double Read Timeout feature sets a time limit that determines how much time must pass before reading the same label again (e.g. two identi- cal items in succession). To set the Double Read Timeout: 1.

Maximum label lengths will be enforced for label validation (i.e. labels longer than the maximum label size will not be validated). • Standard Datalogic formats generally use a single prefix character. The specific formats are provided below. Product Reference Guide...
Datalogic Handheld Data Format Requirements The following sections describe label transmission formats that are typi- cally observed in factory configurations of Datalogic handheld scanners. RSS-14 • Prefix must be ASCII characters ‘R4’ • Check character must be included in label •...

Codabar • Check character must be included in label data. • Label length including check character and excluding prefix charac- ter must meet requirements imposed by the main scanner's fixed or variable label length control for this symbology type. • Prefix must be an ASCII character '%'.
Page 451
MSI/Plessey • Check character must be included in label data. • Label length including check character and excluding prefix charac- ter must meet requirements imposed by the main scanner's fixed or variable label length control for this symbology type. • Prefix must be an ASCII character '@'.
AIM Formats AIM specifies a 3-character string that is attached as a prefix to the label data for transmission. Because AIM specifies one identifier for UPC-A, UPC-E and EAN-13 labels, UPC-A, UPC-E and EAN-13 will be received from the handheld and transmitted by the scanner as EAN-13. The ']' character must be the first character received in the label transmission from the handheld.
2-Digit Supplemental • Supplemental data is appended to any EAN base label. • Prefix must be ASCII characters ']E1'. • length of Supplemental data including prefix must be 5. Total required length is 21 for EAN-13 and 16 for EAN-8. •...
Code 128 Supplemental • Supplemental data is appended to any EAN base label. • Prefix must be ASCII characters ']C0'. • length of Supplemental data including prefix is variable but must be at least 9. • Examples: addon portion is highlighted data is underlined.

Codabar • Check character must be included in label data. • Label length including check character and excluding prefix charac- ters must meet requirements imposed by the main scanner's fixed or variable label length control for this symbology type. • Prefix must be ASCII characters ']F0'.
RSS-14 • Prefix must be ASCII characters ']e0'. • Check character must be included in label. • Label length excluding prefix characters must be 14 characters. • Example: ']e001044123456789'. RSS Expanded • Prefix must be ASCII characters ']e0'. • Label length excluding prefix characters must be at least 1 character. Maximum length is the maximum label size supported by the scan- ner.
Page 457
Code 128 / EAN128 • Prefix must be either ASCII characters ']C0', ']C1' or ']C2'. • Label length excluding prefix character must meet requirements imposed by the main scanner's fixed or variable label length control for this symbology type. • If EAN-128 Symbology is Enabled and prefix is ']C1', label will be identified as an EAN128 otherwise it is identified as a Code 128.
ASCII Character Set The table on this page shows a set of ASCII characters and their corresponding Hex Values. The Hex Values in this table are needed for setting symbology specific label identifiers, as well as enabling custom prefix and suffix characters. Table 1 ASCII ASCII...
