Power Supply  
Power must be supplied to the V400-H111/211 via the cable.  
Wire the power supply independently of other devices. In particular, keep the power supply  
wired separately from inductive loads.  
Use a DC power supply with safe extra-low-voltage circuits to prevent high voltage. If UL recognition is  
required for the overall system, use a UL Class II DC power supply.

Memory Cards  
The Handheld 2D Code Reader uses a Memory Card to change communication conditions  
and function settings in the Setup window and to upload/backup the setting data and the data  
that has been read. SD Memory Cards are supported.  
Conforms to SD Memory Card “Physical Layer Specification 1.01”  
File format: FAT16  
Save the data to the Memory Card, insert the Memory Card in the personal computer, and  
upload the data to easily backup the data to the personal computer. SD Memory Cards are  
provided with a write prohibit switch to prohibit writing to or formatting of the Memory Card.  
When the switch is set to LOCK, data cannot be written to or deleted from the Memory Card,  
and the Memory Card cannot be formatted. These functions are possible by setting the switch

Comparison Principle  
With display conversion, comparison is performed with the data contained in the file, and the display  
contents is changed to the registered text strings for characters that match.  
Matching processing is performed in order starting from the beginning of the file. Once a match is  
found, no further comparisons are made, i.e., matching processing is affected by the entry order.  
Therefore, when comparing complicated patterns, make sure that the optimum order is used.  
2.  
Click [1. New Regist.].

Specify the part of the read data to be compared.  
Specify the data position from which comparison is to be started and the number of data bytes to be  
compared.  
If you want to compare all the read data, specify "1" in [Starting Position] and "All" in [Number of Bytes].

ASCII Table  
Data read with no-protocol commands using the serial communications interface is output as 2  
characters of ASCII.  
The ASCII characters correspond to the following characters.  
Examples:  
When the read data is A, 41 is output.  
When the data read is T, 54 is output.

FCS Calculation Method  
FCS Calculation Method  
The FCS (Frame Check Sequence) is the result of taking the XOR for each byte  
between the header and footer (8 bits) and converting it to 2 characters of ASCII.  
The FCS can be attached to output data to improve the reliability of communications.  
Each time data is received, the host calculates the FCS and checks it against the FCS  
attached to the sent data so that the send data can be checked for errors.  
Calculation Example for Sending FCS

Maximum Data Capacity  
Even with the same 2D code, the maximum quantity of information that can be stored depends on  
the symbol size of the code.  
In other words, the symbol size must be increased to increase the data capacity.  
The data capacity also depends on the type of characters used for the information contained in the  
code. With QR and DataMatrix Code, the maximum number of characters for the same symbol size  
will be greatest for numbers only and then for alphanumerics, and will be the least with 2-byte  
characters.  
The data capacity also depends on the character type, and the order and combination of characters  
used.
