Page 35: System Conditions

RF (Radio Frequency) Module Operation The cordless system uses a state-of-the-art two-way Bluetooth radio to transmit and receive data between the image scanner and the base. Designed for point- to-point and multipoint-to-single point applications, the radio operates using a license free ISM band, which sends relatively small data packets at a fast data rate over a radio signal with randomly changing frequencies, makes the cord- less system highly responsive to a wide variety of data collection applications and resistant to noisy RF environments.
Page 36: Communication Between The Cordless System And The Host

Out of Range and Back into Range with Data Accumulation Mode The image scanner may store a number of symbols (approximately 500 UPC symbols, others may vary) when out of range and then send them to the base when back in range. You will not hear a communication error beep in this mode, but you will hear a short buzz when you pull the trigger if the radio communica- tion is not working.

If the image scanner’s trigger is pulled when using a hands free mode, the image scanner changes to manual trigger mode. You can set the time the image scanner should remain in manual trigger mode by setting the Hands Free Time-Out.
Page 69: Centering Window

Centering Window Use the centering feature to narrow the image scanner’s field of view so the image scanner reads only the barcode you want. When centering is turned on, the image scanner only reads codes that intersect or are contained within the centering window you set up.
Page 70: Preferred Symbology

Example: If you have two barcodes next to one another and the centering window is set to 40% left edge and 60% right edge, only the barcode that intersects that window will be decoded. Preferred Symbology The 3820/3820i can be programmed to specify one symbology as a higher priority over other symbologies in situations where both bar code symbologies appear on the same label, but the lower priority symbology cannot be disabled.
