About the Battery  
We recommend use of Hand Held Products Li-ion battery backs. Use  
of any non-Hand Held Products battery may result in damage not cov-  
ered by the warranty.  
!
Power is supplied to the cordless image scanner by a rechargeable battery that  
is integrated in the image scanner handle. Each image scanner is shipped with  
a battery. (See Product Specifications beginning on page 11-1.)  
Charging Information  
The battery is designed to charge while the image scanner is positioned in the  
cordless base unit. Refer to "2020 LED Sequences and Their Meaning" on  
page 1-15 for an interpretation of the Charge Status indicators.  
Place the image scanner in the base that is connected to an appropriate  
power supply.

Battery Recommendations  
Batteries are shipped approximately 30% to 60% charged and should be fully  
charged for maximum charge capacity.  
The battery is a lithium ion cell and can be used without a full charge, as well  
as can be charged without fully discharging, without impacting the battery life.  
There is no need to perform any charge/discharge conditioning on this cell  
type battery.  
Do not disassemble the battery. There are no user-serviceable parts in the  
battery.  
Keep the base connected to power when the host is not in use.  
Replace a defective battery immediately since it could damage the image  
scanner.  
Don’t short-circuit a battery or throw it into a fire. It can explode and cause  
severe personal injury.  
Although your battery can be recharged many times, it will eventually be  
depleted. Replace it after the battery is unable to hold an adequate charge.  
If you are not sure if the battery or charger is working properly, send it to  
Honeywell International Inc. or an authorized service center for inspection.  
Refer to Customer Support on page 13-1 for additional information  
Proper Disposal of the Battery  
When the battery has reached the end of its useful life, the  
battery should be disposed of by a qualified recycler or haz-  
ardous materials handler. Do not incinerate the battery or  
dispose of the battery with general waste materials. You may  
send the imager’s battery to us. (postage paid). The shipper  
is responsible for complying with all federal, state, and local  
laws and regulations related to the packing, labeling, mani-  
festing, and shipping of spent batteries. Contact the Product  
Service Department (page 13-1) for recycling or disposal information. Since  
you may find that your cost of returning the batteries significant, it may be more  
cost effective to locate a local recycle/disposal company.

Linking Image Scanner to Base  
When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, the base and image scan-  
ner are not linked. Once the image scanner is placed into the base, the soft-  
ware automatically links the image scanner and the base. If the image scanner  
and base have previously been linked, you do not receive any feedback. If this  
is the first time that the image scanner and base are linked, both devices emit a  
short chirp when their radios link. At this point, you are set to one image scan-  
ner to one base.

2. Place the 3820/3820i into the base. The image scanner and base link.  
3. To determine if your cordless system is set up correctly, scan one of the  
sample bar codes in the back of this manual. If the image scanner provides  
a single good read beep and the green LED lights, the image scanner has  
successfully linked to the base. If you receive a triple error beep and the red  
LED lights, the image scanner has not linked to the base.  
Image Scanner Modes  
The 3820/3820i is capable of working in single image scanner mode, multiple  
image scanner mode, or with Bluetooth devices, other than the 2020 base.  
Unlinking the Image Scanner  
If the base has an image scanner linked to it, that image scanner must be  
unlinked before a new image scanner can be linked. Once the previous image  
scanner is unlinked, it will no longer communicate with the base. To unlink an  
image scanner from the base, scan the Unlink Image Scanner bar code below.  
Unlink Image Scanner

Single Image Scanner Operation  
There are two link modes to accommodate different applications: Locked Link  
Mode and Open Link Mode. Scan the appropriate bar codes included in the  
Open Link and Locked Link Mode explanations that follow to switch from one  
mode to another. Default = Locked Link Mode.  
Locked Link Mode - Single Image Scanner  
If you link an image scanner to a base using the Locked Link Mode, other image  
scanners are blocked from being linked if they are inadvertently placed into the  
base. If you do place a different image scanner into the base, it will charge the  
image scanner, but the image scanner will not be linked.  
* Locked Link Mode  
(Single Image Scanner)  
To use a different image scanner, you need to unlink the original image scanner  
by scanning the Unlink Image Scanner bar code. (See "Image Scanner  
Modes" on page 1-5.)  
Open Link Mode - Single Image Scanner  
When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, the base and image scan-  
ner are not linked. By placing an image scanner into the base, they establish a  
link. Placing a different image scanner into the base establishes a new link and  
the old image scanner is unlinked. Each time an image scanner is placed into  
the base, it becomes the linked image scanner; the old image scanner is  
unlinked.  
Open Link Mode  
(Single Image Scanner)  
Override Locked Image Scanner  
If you need to replace a broken or lost image scanner that is linked to a base,  
scan the Override Locked Image Scanner bar code below with a new image  
scanner and place that image scanner in the base. The locked link will be over-  
ridden; the broken or lost image scanner’s link with the base will be removed,  
and the new image scanner will be linked.

Multiple Image Scanner Operation  
To put the image scanner in multiple image scanner mode, scan the bar code  
below. Once you scan this bar code, the image scanner is unlinked from the  
base and must be placed into the base to re-link.  
Multiple Image Scanner Operation  
Note: Multiple Image Scanner Operation Mode allows you to link up to 7 image  
scanners to one base. You cannot join an eighth image scanner until you  
unlink one of the 7 image scanners or take an image scanner out of  
range.  
Image Scanner Name  
You are able to assign a name to each image scanner you are using. It will be  
to one base so that you will be able to control the image scanner receiving  
imaging commands sent from the base. The default name for a 3820, for exam-  
ple, is “3820”. If you have more than one 3820s linked to a base, the first image  
scanner that is linked to the base receives commands addressed using this  
name.  
Changing Image Scanner Name - Serially  
If you wish to change the name, you may change it via a serial command (refer  
to "Menu Command Syntax" on page 10-1) or via a bar code command. To  
change the name serially, unlink all except one of the 3820/3820i devices from  
the base. Send “:3820:BT_NAMname., where name is the new image scanner  
name. If you wish to change the name of additional 3820/3820i devices, re-link  
them one at a time and repeat the “:3820:BT_NAMname.command for each  
image scanner.

Changing Image Scanner Name - via Bar codes  
If you wanted to set up your image scanners with names 0001-0007, you may  
scan the bar codes below. Scan the Reset bar code after each name change  
and wait for the image scanner to re-link to the base before scanning the next  
bar code to name the next image scanner.  
0001  
0002  
0003  
0004  
0005  
0006  
0007  
Reset  
Alternatively, you may change the name with a bar code command if you cannot  
send serial commands to the base. One way to do this is to scan the bar code  
below and scan a number for the image scanner name. For example, if you had  
7 image scanners to one base, scan the bar code below with the first image  
scanner, scan the 1 bar code on the Programming Chart inside the back cover  
of this manual and scan Save. Then scan the Reset bar code and wait for the  
that process for image scanner number 2, 3, 4 etc.  
Image Scanner Name  
If you want to assign an alphabetic name to the image scanner, create a Code  
128 bar code containing “~BT_NAMname.” followed by a FNC3 character (hexi-  
decimal 83), where name is the new image scanner name. Scan the Reset bar  
code (page 1-8 or on the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this man-  
ual). You may use Barcode Builder, which is included with Quick*View. You  
may download Quick*View from the Honeywell International Inc. website: at

Image Scanner Report  
Scan the bar code below to generate a report for the connected image scan-  
ners. The report indicates the port, work group, image scanner name, and  
address.  
Image Scanner Report  
Application Work Groups  
Your cordless system can have up to seven image scanners linked to one base.  
You can also have up to seven work groups. If you want to have all of the image  
scanners’ settings programmed alike, you don’t need to use more than one  
work group. If you want each image scanner to have unique settings (e.g.,  
beeper volume, prefix/suffix, data formatter), then you may program each image  
scanner to its own unique work group and may program each image scanner  
independently. Visual XPress (page 9-1) makes it easy for you to program your  
system for use with multiple image scanners and multiple work groups.  
The image scanner keeps a copy of the menu settings it is using. Whenever the  
image scanner is connected or reconnected to a base, the image scanner is  
updated with the latest settings from the base for its work group. The image  
scanner also receives menu setting changes processed by the base. If an  
image scanner is removed from one base and placed into another base, it will  
be updated with the new base settings for whatever work group that the image  
scanner was previously assigned. For example, if the image scanner was in  
work group 1 linked to the first base, it will be placed in work group 1 in the sec-  
ond base with the associated settings.

Current Application Work Group  
If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your image scanner, or  
you’ve changed some options and want the standard product default settings  
restored, scan the Standard Product Default Settings: Current Application  
Group bar code below.  
The Menu Commands starting on page 10-6 list the factory default settings for  
each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the programming pages).  
Note: Scanning this bar code also causes both the image scanner and the base  
to perform a reset and become unlinked. Refer to "Linking Image  
Scanner to Base" on page 1-5 for additional information.  
Standard Product Default Settings:  
Current Application Group  
Note: If your image scanner is in multiple image scanner mode and you scan  
either the current or all application group default bar code, you will hear  
up to 30 seconds of beeping while all image scanners are re-linked from  
the base and the settings are defaulted to * settings. The default interface  
is keyboard wedge and the default image scanner mode is single image  
scanner locked link mode.

Basic Operation of the Cordless System  
Cordless Base  
The cordless base provides the link between the cordless image scanner and  
the host system. The base contains an interface assembly and an RF commu-  
nication module. The RF communication module performs the data exchange  
between the cordless image scanner and the interface assembly. The control  
assembly coordinates the central interface activities including: transmitting/  
receiving commands and data to/from the host system, performing software  
activities (parameter menuing, visual indicator support, power-on diagnostics),  
and data translation required for the host system.  
The base also is the image scanner battery charger with the external 9VDC  
power source applied. Once you place the image scanner into base, the base  
green LED responds according to the Charge Status Indicator table above.  
The base can be powered by the Host (parasitic power mode). If the base is in  
parasitic power mode without the 9VDC power source, the base will still func-  
tion, but will not charge the battery.

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. Bluetooth Class 2 power level provides  
range of 33 feet (10m) depending on the environment.  
Cordless Image Scanner  
The cordless image scanner enables fast and accurate bar code scanning using  
a non-contact linear image scanner.  
The image scanner is comprised of a linear image scanner, a decode/control  
assembly, and an RF communication module. The scan engine performs the  
bar code image illumination and sensing. The decode/control assembly coordi-  
nates the central communication activities including: capturing and decoding  
the bar code image data, performing software activities (parameter menuing,  
visual indicator support, low battery indication), and data translation required for  
the host system. The RF communication module performs the data exchange  
between the image scanner and the base.  
System Conditions  
The components of the cordless system interact in specific ways as you associ-  
ate an image scanner to a base, as you move an image scanner out of range,  
bring an image scanner back in range, or swap image scanners between two  
cordless systems. The following information explains the cordless system oper-  
ating conditions.  
Linking Process  
Once an image scanner is placed into the base, the image scanner’s battery  
charge status is checked, and software automatically detects the image scan-  
Image Scanner Is Out of Range  
The cordless image scanner is in communication with its base, even when it is  
not transmitting bar code data. Whenever the image scanner can’t communi-  
cate with the base for a few seconds, it is out of range. If the image scanner is  
out of range and you scan a bar code, the image scanner issues a triple beep  
indicating no communication with the base. In addition, your image scanner  
and base can sound an alarm if programmed to emit an alarm. See Out-of-  
Range Alarm on page 1-12.  
Image Scanner Is Moved Back Into Range  
The image scanner re-links if the image scanner or the base have been reset or  
out of range. If the image scanner re-links, you will hear a single chirp when the  
re-linking process (uploading of the parameter table) is complete.

Out of Range and Back into Range with Data Accumulation Mode  
On  
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. Once the radio connection is made, the image scanner pro-  
duces a series of beeps while the data is being transferred to the base.  
Communication Between the Cordless System and the Host  
The cordless image scanner provides immediate feedback in the form of a  
“good read” indication (a green LED on the image scanner and an audible  
beep) after a bar code is scanned correctly and the base has acknowledged  
receiving the data. This is possible since the cordless system provides two-way  
communication between the image scanner and the base.  
When data is scanned, the data is sent to the host system via the base unit.  
Confirmation from the host system or the base indicates that the data sent was  
received by the host. The cordless image scanner recognizes data acknowl-  
edgement (ACK) from the base unit. If it cannot be determined that the data  
has been properly sent to the base, the image scanner issues an error indica-  
tion. You must then check to see if the scanned data was received by the host  
system.

Connecting the Base When Powered by Host  
(Keyboard Wedge)  
A base can be connected between the keyboard and PC as a “keyboard  
wedge,plugged into the serial port, or connected to a portable data terminal in  
wand emulation or non decoded output mode. The following is an example of a  
keyboard wedge connection:  
1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer.  
1 - 18  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
   
2. Disconnect the keyboard cable from the back of the terminal/computer.  
3. Connect the  
appropriate  
interface cable  
to the base and  
to the terminal/  
computer and  
keyboard. Make  
sure the cables  
are secured in  
the wireways in  
the bottom of  
the base and  
that the base  
sits flat on a  
horizontal  
surface.  
4. Turn the terminal/computer power back on.  
5. Program the base for the keyboard wedge interface. See "Keyboard Wedge  
Connection" on page 1-21.)  
6. Verify the base operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample Symbols  
in the back of this manual.  
Note: Without using the 9-volt external, power supply, the base only uses  
enough power from the host to operate the interface. The image  
scanner’s battery is not charged when in this mode. Using the 9-volt,  
external power supply allows the image scanner’s battery to be charged,  
and no power is drawn from the host.

Reading Techniques  
The image scanner has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam that  
corresponds to its horizontal field of view. The aiming line should be centered  
horizontally over the bar code; it will not read if the aiming line is in any other  
direction.  
Good Read  
Bad Read  
Bad Read  
The best focus point for reading most code densities is about 5 inches (12.7  
cm) from the unit. To read single or multiple symbols (on a page or on an

Keyboard Style  
This programs keyboard styles, such as Caps Lock and Shift Lock. Default =  
Regular.  
Regular is used when you normally have the Caps Lock key off.  
* Regular  
Caps Lock is used when you normally have the Caps Lock key on.  
Caps Lock  
Shift Lock is used when you normally have the Shift Lock key on (not common  
to U.S. keyboards).  
Shift Lock  
Automatic Caps Lock is used if you change the Caps Lock key on and off.  
The software tracks and reflects if you have Caps Lock on or off (AT and PS/2  
only). This selection can only be used with systems that have an LED which  
notes the Caps Lock status.  
Automatic Caps Lock  
Autocaps via NumLock bar code should be scanned in countries (e.g., Ger-  
many, France) where the Caps Lock key cannot be used to toggle Caps Lock.  
The NumLock option works similarly to the regular Auotcaps, but uses the Num-  
Lock key to retrieve the current state of the Caps Lock.  
Autocaps via NumLock  
Emulate External Keyboard should be scanned if you do not have an external  
keyboard (IBM AT or equivalent).

Connecting the Base with RS-232 Serial Port  
1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer.  
2. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the base.  
Note: For the base to work properly, you must have the correct cable for your  
type of terminal/computer.  
3. Plug the serial connector into the serial port on your computer. Tighten the  
two screws to secure the connector to the port.  
4. Plug the power supply barrel connector to the base, and plug the power  
supply into the AC source.  
5. Once the base has been fully connected, power up the computer.  
All communication parameters between the image scanner and terminal must  
match for correct data transfer through the serial port using RS-232 protocol.  
Scanning the RS-232 interface bar code, programs the image scanner for an  
RS-232 interface at 115,200 baud, parity–none, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and adds  
a suffix of a CR LF.

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 applica-  
tion 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. Default = 8.  
Stop Bits sets the stop bits at 1 or 2. Default = 1.

RS-232 Handshaking  
RS-232 Handshaking allows control of data transmission from the image scan-  
ner using software commands from the host device. CTS/RTS operates in  
mode 2. When this feature is turned Off, no data flow control is used. When  
Data Flow Control is turned On, the host device suspends transmission by  
sending the XOFF character (DC3, hex 13) to the image scanner. To resume

transmission, the host sends the XON character (DC1, hex 11). Data transmis-  
sion continues where it left off when XOFF was sent. Default = RTS/CTS, XON/  
XOFF and ACK/NAK Off.

Host ACK Selection  
Some applications require that the host terminal (or server) approve or reject  
incoming bar code data and notify the operator of these actions. These applica-  
tions require that the host maintain control over the response indicators emitted  
from the source image scanner. Turning the Host ACK selection on, configures  
the cordless system image scanners to respond to commands from the host  
system.  
The following criteria must be met for the Host ACK to work correctly:  
The cordless system must be configured for Host Port RS-232 (terminal ID =  
000) or USB COM Emulation (terminal ID = 130).  
RTS/CTS is defaulted off. You must enable it if the host system requires it.  
Host ACK must be enabled (page 2-12).  
System performance degrades when using Host ACK at rates lower than  
9600.  
The host terminal software must be capable of interpreting the bar code data,  
make decisions based on the data content, and send out appropriate escape  
commands to the source image scanner.  
Escape commands are addressed to the source image scanner via “Application  
Work Groups.Once a command is sent, all image scanners in a group respond  
to that command. Because of this situation, it is recommended that each  
image scanner is assigned to its own group in host ACK mode.  
The commands to which the image scanner responds are listed on page 2-13.  
The <ESC> is a 1B in hex. A typical command string is y <ESC> x, where “y” is  
the application work group number, “<ESC> x” is the escape command, and the  
comma is the terminator, which is required.  
2 - 11  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
             
Commands may be strung together to create custom response sequences. An  
example of a command string is listed below.  
0<ESC>4<ESC>5<ESC>6,  
The above example will make an image scanner in application work group zero  
beep low, medium, high.  
Once Host ACK is enabled, the system works as follows:  
The image scanner reads a code and sends data to the base/host system.  
No audible or visual indication is emitted until you receive an escape  
command. The image scanner read illumination goes out upon a successful  
read.  
Image Scanner is suspended until 1) a valid escape string is received from  
the host system (via the base) or 2) the image scanner “times out.”  
Once condition 1 or 2 above has been met, the image scanner is ready to  
scan again, and the process repeats.  
Time out is indicated by three rapid beeps at the same pitch. A time out occurs  
if the source image scanner does not receive a valid escape command in 10  
seconds. If a time out occurs, the operator should check the host system to  
understand why a response to the image scanner was not received.

Wand Emulation  
Wand Emulation Connection  
The Wand Emulation Connection bar codes should be used if you want to  
change the terminal ID only, without changing any other image scanner set-  
tings. We recommend using Wand Emulation Plug & Play bar codes to pro-  
gram your image scanner to emulate a wand reader. The Wand Emulation Plug  
& Play bar codes change other parameters, in addition to changing the terminal  
ID. Please refer to Wand Emulation Plug & Play on page 1-22 for further infor-  
mation.  
In Wand Emulation mode, the image scanner decodes the bar code then sends  
data in the same format as a wand scanner. The Code 39 Format converts all  
symbologies to Code 39.  
The Same Code Format transmits UPC, EAN, Code 128 and Interleaved 2 of 5  
without any changes, but converts all other symbologies to Code 39. 2D sym-  
bologies are converted to Code 128.  
The Code 39 Format bar code below sets the terminal ID to 61, and the Same  
Code Format bar code sets the terminal ID to 64.

Image Scanner Trigger Modes  
Manual/Serial Trigger, Low Power  
You can activate the image scanner either by pressing the trigger, or using a  
serial trigger command (see "Trigger Commands" on page 10-4). When in  
manual trigger mode, the image scanner scans until a bar code is read, or until  
the trigger is released.  
When in serial mode, the image scanner scans until a bar code has been read  
or until the deactivate command is sent. In serial mode, the image scanner can  
also be set to turn itself off after a specified time has elapsed (see Read Time-  
Out (Serial Trigger Mode), which follows).

Read Time-Out (Serial Trigger Mode)  
Use this selection to set a time-out (in milliseconds) of the image scanner’s  
trigger when using serial commands to trigger the image scanner. Once the  
image scanner has timed out, you can activate the image scanner either by  
pressing the trigger or using a serial trigger command. After scanning the Read  
Time-Out bar code, set the time-out duration (from 0-300,000 milliseconds) by  
scanning digits on the Programming Chart inside the back cover, then scanning  
Save. Default = 30,000 ms.  
Read Time-Out  
Image Scanner Power Time-Out Timer  
Note: The Image Scanner Power Time-out Timer option only applies to Manual/  
Serial Trigger.  
When there is no activity within a specified time period, the image scanner enters  
low power mode. Scan the appropriate Image Scanner Power Time-Out bar  
code to change the time-out duration (in seconds).  
Note: Scanning zero (0) is the equivalent of setting no time-out.

If there are no trigger pulls during the “image scanner power time-out timer”  
interval, the image scanner goes into power down mode. Whenever the trigger  
is enabled, the “image scanner power time-out timer” is reset. If the image  
scanner is placed in the 2020 cradle and the battery is in the process of being  
charged, the image scanner will not go into power down mode.

Hands Free Time-Out  
The Automatic Trigger and Presentation Modes are referred to as “hands free”  
modes. 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. Once the time-out value is reached, (if there have been no further  
trigger pulls) the image scanner reverts to the original hands free mode.  
Scan the Hands Free Time-Out bar code, then scan the time-out duration (from  
0-300,000 milliseconds) from the inside back cover, and Save. Default = 5,000  
ms.

Reread Delay  
This sets the time period before the image scanner can read the same bar code  
a second time. Setting a reread delay protects against accidental rereads of the  
same bar code. Longer delays are effective in minimizing accidental rereads at  
POS (point of sale). Use shorter delays in applications where repetitive bar code  
scanning is required. Default = Medium.

Centering Window  
Use the centering feature to narrow the image scanner’s field of view so the  
image scanner reads only the bar code 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. At least part of a bar code must be within the  
window to be decoded or output by the image scanner.  
To change the left or right edge of the centering window, scan Centering On,  
then scan one of the following bar codes. Then scan the percent you want to  
shift the centering window using digits on the inside back cover of this manual.

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.  
For example, you may be using the imager in a retail setting to read UPC  
symbols, but have occasional need to read a code on a drivers license. Since  
some licenses have a Code 39 symbol as well as the PDF417 symbol, you can  
use Preferred Symbology to specify that the PDF417 symbol be read instead of  
the Code 39.  
Preferred Symbology classifies each symbology as high priority, low priority,  
or as an unspecified type. When a low priority symbology is presented, the  
imager ignores it for a set period of time (see Preferred Symbology Time-out on  
page 3-9) while it searches for the high priority symbology. If a high priority  
symbology is located during this period, then that data is read immediately.  
If the time-out period expires before a high priority symbology is read, the imager  
will read any bar code in its view (low priority or unspecified). If there is no bar  
code in the imager’s view after the time-out period expires, then no data is  
reported.  
Note: A low priority symbol must be centered on the aiming pattern to be read.  
Scan a bar code below to enable or disable Preferred Symbology.

To specify the low priority symbology, scan the Low Priority Symbology bar code  
below. On the Symbology Chart on page A-1, find the symbology you want to  
set as low priority. Locate the Hex value for that symbology and scan the 2 digit  
hex value from the Programming Chart (inside back cover).  
If you want to set additional low priority symbologies, scan FF, then scan the 2  
digit hex value from the Programming Chart for the next symbology. You can  
program up to 5 low priority symbologies. Scan Save to save your selection.

Output Sequence Overview  
Require Output Sequence  
When turned off, the bar code data will be output to the host as the image  
scanner decodes it. When turned on, all output data must conform to an edited  
sequence or the image scanner will not transmit the output data to the host  
device.  
Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection is  
turned on.  
Output Sequence Editor  
This programming selection allows you to program the image scanner to output  
data (when scanning more than one symbol) in whatever order your application  
requires, regardless of the order in which the bar codes are scanned. Reading  
the Default Sequence symbol programs the image scanner to the Universal  
values, shown below. These are the defaults. Be certain you want to delete or  
clear all formats before you read the Default Sequence symbol.  
Note: You must hold the trigger while reading each bar code in a sequence.

as 0050. 9999 is a universal number, indicating all lengths.) When calculat-  
ing the length, you must count any programmed prefixes, suffixes, or format-  
ted characters as part of the length (unless using 9999).  
4. Character Match Sequences  
On the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252) on page A-4, find the  
Hex value that represents the character(s) you want to match. Use the Pro-  
gramming Chart inside the back cover of this manual to read the alphanu-  
meric combination that represents the ASCII characters. (99 is the  
Universal number, indicating all characters.)

Require Output Sequence  
When an output sequence is Required, all output data must conform to an edited  
sequence or the image scanner will not transmit the output data to the host  
device. When it’s On/Not Required, the image scanner will attempt to get the  
output data to conform to an edited sequence, but if it cannot, the image scanner  
transmits all output data to the host device as is.  
When the output sequence is Off, the bar code data is output to the host as the  
image scanner decodes it.

Output Sequence Example  
In this example, you are scanning Code 93, Code 128, and Code 39 bar codes,  
but you want the image scanner to output Code 39 1st, Code 128 2nd, and Code  
93 3rd, as shown below.  
Note: Code 93 must be enabled to use this example.  
A - Code 39  
B - Code 128  
C - Code 93  
You would set up the sequence editor with the following command line:  
SEQBLK62999941FF6A999942FF69999943FF  
The breakdown of the command line is shown below:  
SEQBLKsequence editor start command

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. If you use the example on page 3-12, but assume a <CR> suffix and  
specific code lengths, you would use the following command line:

Multiple Symbols  
When this programming selection is turned On, it allows you to read multiple  
symbols with a single pull of the image scanner’s trigger. If you press and hold  
the trigger, aiming the image scanner at a series of symbols, it reads unique  
symbols once, beeping (if turned on) for each read. The image scanner attempts  
to find and decode new symbols as long as the trigger is pulled. When this  
programming selection is turned Off, the image scanner will only read the  
symbol closest to the aiming beam.

No Read  
With No Read turned On, the image scanner sends an “NR” to the host if you  
pull and release the trigger without reading a code (e.g., bad bar code). If No  
Read is turned Off, the “NR” will not be sent to the host.  
No Read On  
* No Read Off  
If you want a different notation than “NR,” for example, “Error,” or “Bad Code,”  
you can edit the output message using the Data Formatter (page 5-4). The hex  
code for the No Read symbol is 9C.  
Video Reverse  
Video Reverse is used to allow the image scanner to read bar codes that are  
inverted. The “Off” bar code below is an example of this type of bar code.  
Note: If additional menuing is required, Video Reverse must be disabled to  
read the menu bar codes and then re-enabled after menuing is  
completed.

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.  
Prefix and Suffix characters are data characters that can be sent before and  
after scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all symbologies,  
or only with specific symbologies. The following illustration shows the break-  
down of a message string:  
Prefix  
1-11  
alpha numeric &  
control characters  
Scanned Data  
Suffix  
variable length  
1-11  
alpha numeric &  
control characters  
Points to Keep In Mind  
It is not necessary to build a message string. The selections in this chapter  
are only used if you wish to alter the default settings. Default prefix = None.  
Default suffix = None.  
A prefix or suffix may be added or cleared from one symbology or all  
symbologies.  
You can add any prefix or suffix from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page  
1252) on page A-4, plus Code I.D. and AIM I.D.  
You can string together several entries for several symbologies at one time.  
the output.  
When setting up for specific symbologies (as opposed to all symbologies), the  
specific symbology ID value counts as an added prefix or suffix character.  
To Add a Prefix or Suffix:  
Step 1. Scan the Add Prefix or Add Suffix symbol (page 4-3).  
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in  
the Appendix A) for the symbology to which you want to apply the prefix  
or suffix. For example, for Code 128, Code ID is “j” and Hex ID is “6A”.  
Step 3. Scan the 2 hex digits from the Programming Chart inside the back  
cover of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies.  
4 - 1  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
         
Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page  
1252) on page A-4, for the prefix or suffix you wish to enter.  
Step 5. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back  
cover of this manual.  
Step 6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 for every prefix or suffix character.  
Step 7. To add the Code I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 0.  
To add AIM I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 1.  
To add a backslash (\), scan 5, C, 5, C.  
Note: To add a backslash (\) as in Step 7, you must scan 5C twice – once to  
create the leading backslash and then to create the backslash itself.  
Step 8. Scan Save to exit and save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.  
Repeat Steps 1-6 to add a prefix or suffix for another symbology.  
Example: Add a Suffix to a specific symbology  
To send a CR (carriage return)Suffix for UPC only:  
Step 1. Scan Add Suffix.  
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in  
the Appendix A) for UPC.  
Step 3. Scan 6, 3 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this  
manual.  
Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page  
1252) on page A-4, for the CR (carriage return).  
Step 5. Scan 0, D from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this  
manual.  
Step 6. Scan Save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.  
To Clear One or All Prefixes or Suffixes:  
You can clear a single prefix or suffix, or clear all prefixes/suffixes for a symbol-  
ogy. 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.  
Step 1. Scan the Clear One Prefix or Clear One Suffix symbol.  
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (included in  
the Appendix A) for the symbology from which you want to clear the  
prefix or suffix.

cover of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies.  
Your change is automatically saved.  
To Add a Carriage Return Suffix to All Symbologies  
Scan the following bar code if you wish to add a carriage return suffix to all sym-  
bologies at once. This action first clears all current suffixes, then programs a  
carriage return suffix for all symbologies.

Function Code Transmit  
When this selection is enabled and function codes are contained within the  
scanned data, the image scanner transmits the function code to the terminal.  
Charts of these function codes are provided in Supported Interface Keys start-  
ing on page 7-3. When the image scanner is in keyboard wedge mode, the  
scan code is converted to a key code before it is transmitted. Default = Enable.

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.

Data Formatting  
You may use the Data Format Editor to change the image scanner’s output. For  
example, you can use the Data Format Editor to insert characters at certain  
points in bar code data as it is scanned. The selections in the following pages  
are used only if you wish to alter the output. Default Data Format setting =  
None.  
Normally, when you scan a bar code, it is output automatically; however when  
you do a format, you must use a “send” command (see Send Commands on  
page 5-2) within the format program to output data.  
Multiple formats may be programmed into the image scanner. They are stacked  
in the order in which they are entered. However, the following list presents the  
order in which formats are applied:  
1. Specific Term ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length  
2. Specific Term ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length  
3. Specific Term ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length  
4. Specific Term ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length  
5. Universal Term ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length  
6. Universal Term ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length  
7. Universal Term ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length  
8. Universal Term ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length  
If you have changed data format settings, and wish to clear all formats and  
return to the factory defaults, scan the Default Data Format code on page 5-4.  
To Add a Data Format  
Step 1. Scan the Enter Data Format symbol (page 5-4).  
Step 2. Primary/Alternate Format  
Determine if this will be your primary data format, or one of 3 alternate  
formats. (Alternate formats allow you “single shot” capability to scan  
one bar code using a different data format. After the one bar code has  
been read, the image scanner reverts to the primary data format. See  
page 5-5.) If you are programming the primary format, scan 0 using the  
Programming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. If you are  
programming an alternate format, scan 1, 2, or 3, depending on the  
alternate format you are programming.  
Step 3. Terminal Type  
Refer to the Supported Terminals Chart (page 2-2) and locate the Ter-  
minal ID number for your PC. Scan three numeric bar codes on the  
inside back cover to program the image scanner for your terminal ID  
(you must enter 3 digits). For example, scan 0 0 3 for an AT wedge.  
Note: The wildcard for all terminal types is 099.

Step 4. Code I.D.  
In the Appendix A, find the symbology to which you want to apply the  
data format. Locate the Hex value for that symbology and scan the 2  
digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of  
this manual.  
Step 5. Length  
Specify what length (up to 9999 characters) of data will be acceptable  
for this symbology. Scan the four digit data length from the Program-  
ming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. (Note: 50 characters  
is entered as 0050. 9999 is a universal number, indicating all lengths.)  
Step 6. Editor Commands  
Refer to the Format Editor Commands Chart (page 5-2). Scan the  
symbols that represent the command you want to enter. 94 alphanu-  
meric characters may be entered for each symbology data format.  
Step 7. Scan Save from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this  
Other Programming Selections  
Clear One Data Format  
This deletes one data format for one symbology. If you are clearing the  
primary format, scan 0 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of  
this manual. If you are clearing an alternate format, scan 1, 2, or 3, depending  
on the alternate format you are clearing. Scan the Terminal Type (refer to the  
Supported Terminals Chart on page 2-2), Code I.D. (refer to the Symbology  
Chart on page A-1), and the bar code data length for the specific data format  
that you want to delete. All other formats remain unaffected.

Message Length  
You are able to set the valid reading length of some of the bar code symbologies.  
If the data length of the scanned bar code doesn’t match the valid reading length,  
the image scanner will issue an error beep. You may wish to set the same value  
for minimum and maximum length to force the image scanner to read fixed  
length bar code data. This helps reduce the chances of a misread.  
EXAMPLE:Decode only those bar codes with a count of 9-20 characters.  
Min. length = 09  
Max. length = 20  
EXAMPLE:Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.  
Min. length = 15 Max. length = 15  
For a value other than the minimum and maximum message length defaults,  
scan the bar codes included in the explanation of the symbology, then scan the  
digit value of the message length and Save bar codes on the Programming Chart  
inside the back cover of this manual. The minimum and maximum lengths and  
the defaults are included with the respective symbologies.

Codabar Concatenation  
Codabar supports symbol concatenation. When you enable concatenation, the  
image scanner looks for a Codabar symbol having a “D” start character, adja-  
cent to a symbol having a “D” stop character. In this case the two messages  
are concatenated into one with the “D” characters omitted.

Code 39 Append  
This function allows the image scanner to append the data from several Code  
39 bar codes together before transmitting them to the host computer. When this  
function is enabled, the image scanner stores those Code 39 bar codes that  
start with a space (excluding the start and stop symbols), and does not immedi-  
ately transmit the data. The image scanner stores the data in the order in which  
the bar codes are read, deleting the first space from each. The image scanner  
transmits the appended data when it reads a Code 39 bar code that starts with  
a character other than a space. Default = Off.

describes 1) the critical data elements for labeling blood products, 2) the current  
recommendation to use Code 128 due to its high degree of security and its  
space-efficient design, 3) a variation of Code 128 that supports concatenation  
of neighboring symbols, and 4) the standard layout for bar codes on a blood  
product label. Use the bar codes below to turn concatenation on or off. Default

This selection allows you to turn on transmission of a Code I.D. before the  
decoded symbology. (See the Symbology Chart, page A-1) for the single char-  
acter code that identifies each symbology.) This action first clears all current  
prefixes, then programs a Code I.D. prefix for all symbologies. This is a tempo-  
rary setting that will be removed when the unit is reset. For instructions on how  
to reset your image scanner, refer to Reset Image Scanner (page 8-1).

Visual Xpress  
Visual Xpress Introduction  
Visual Xpress provides a wide range of PC-based programming functions that  
can be performed on an imager connected to your PC's COM port. Visual  
Xpress allows you to download upgrades to the imager's firmware, change pro-  
grammed parameters, and create and print programming bar codes. Using  
Visual Xpress, you can even save/open the programming parameters for an  
imager. This saved file can be e-mailed or, if required, you can create a single  
bar code that contains all the customized programming parameters and mail or  
fax that bar code to any location. Users in other locations can scan the bar  
code to load in the customized programming.  
To communicate with an imager, Visual Xpress requires that the PC have at  
least one available serial communication port, or a serial port emulation using a  
physical USB port. If you are using the serial port and RS-232 cable, an exter-  
nal power supply is required. When using a USB serial port emulation, only a  
USB cable is required.  
Visual Xpress Operations  
The Visual Xpress software performs the following operations:  
Scan Data  
Scan Data allows you to scan bar codes and display the bar code data in a win-  
dow. Scan Data lets you send serial commands to the imager and receive  
imager response that can be seen in the Scan Data window. The data dis-  
played in the Scan Data window can either be saved in a file or printed.  
Configure  
Configure displays the programming and configuration data of the imager. The  
imager's programming and configuration data is grouped into different catego-  
ries. Each category is displayed as a tree item under the "Configure" tree node  
in the application explorer. When one of these tree nodes is clicked, the right-  
hand side is loaded with the parameters' form belonging to that particular cate-  
gory. The "Configure" tree option has all the programming and configuration  
parameters specified for an imager. You can set or modify these parameters as  
required. You can later write the modified settings to the imager, or save them  
to a dcf file.  
Imaging  
Imaging provides all the image-related functions that a 2D Imager can perform.  
You can capture an image using the current settings, and the image will be dis-  
played in an image window. Images captured from the imager can be saved to  
files in different image formats. You can modify the image settings and save the  
image settings to an INI file, which can be loaded later to capture new images.  
Imaging also lets you preview the images continuously captured by the imager.

Installing Visual Xpress from the Web  
Note: Visual Xpress requires .NET software. If .NET is not installed on your PC,  
you will be prompted to install it during the Visual Xpress installation.  
1. Access the Honeywell web site at www.honeywellaidc.com.  
2. Click on Software Downloads.  
3. Select your product from the dropdown list.  
4. Click on the entry for Visual Xpress.  
5. When prompted, select Save File, and save the files to the  
c:\windows\temp directory.  
6. Once you have finished downloading the file, exit the web site.  
7. Using Explorer, go to the c:\windows\temp file and open the zip file you  
saved.  
8. Double click on Setup.exe and follow the screen prompts to install the  
Visual Xpress program.  
9. To start Visual Xpress, click on Start -All Programs-Hand Held Products-  
Visual Xpress.

Serial Programming Commands  
The serial programming commands can be used in place of the programming  
bar codes. Both the serial commands and the programming bar codes will pro-  
gram the 2020. For complete descriptions and examples of each serial pro-  
gramming command, refer to the corresponding programming bar code in this  
manual.  
The device must be set to an RS-232 interface (see page 1-21). The following  
commands can be sent via a PC com port using terminal emulation software.  
Conventions  
The following conventions are used for menu and query command descriptions:  
parameterA label representing the actual value you should send as part of a  
command.  
[option] An optional part of a command.  
{Data} Alternatives in a command.  
bold  
Names of menus, menu commands, buttons, dialog boxes, and  
windows that appear on the screen.  
Menu Command Syntax  
Menu commands have the following syntax (spaces have been used for clarity  
only):  
Prefix [:Name:] Tag SubTag {Data} [, SubTag {Data}] [; Tag SubTag {Data}] […]  
Storage  
Prefix  
Three ASCII characters: SYN M CR (ASCII 22,77,13).  
:Name:  
To send information to the image scanner (with the base connect-  
ed to host): :3820/3820i: The default factory setting for a 3820/  
3820i image scanner is 3820/3820i. This setting is changed by us-  
ing the BT_NAM command, which accepts alphanumeric values.  
If the name is not known, a wildcard (*) can be used :*:.  
Note: Since the base stores all work group settings and transfers to them to the  
image scanner once they are linked, changes are typically done to the  
base and not to the image scanner.  
Tag  
A 3 character case-insensitive field that identifies the desired menu  
command group. For example, all RS-232 configuration settings  
are identified with a Tag of 232.  
SubTag  
A 3 character case-insensitive field that identifies the desired menu  
command within the tag group. For example, the SubTag for the  
RS-232 baud rate is BAD.  
10 - 1  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
         
Data  
The new value for a menu setting, identified by the Tag and Sub-  
Tag.  
Storage  
A single character that specifies the storage table to which the  
command is applied. An exclamation point (!) performs the com-  
mand’s operation on the device’s volatile menu configuration table.  
A period (.) performs the command’s operation on the device’s  
non-volatile menu configuration table. Use the non-volatile table  
only for semi-permanent changes you want saved through a power  
cycle.  
Query Commands  
Several special characters can be used to query the device about its settings.  
^
?
*
What is the default value for the setting(s).  
What is the device’s current value for the setting(s).  
What is the range of possible values for the setting(s). (The de-  
vice’s response uses a dash (-) to indicate a continuous range of  
values. A pipe (|) separates items in a list of non-continuous val-  
ues.)  
:Name: Field Usage (Optional)  
This command returns the query information from the image scanner.  
Tag Field Usage  
When a query is used in place of a Tag field, the query applies to the entire set  
of commands available for the particular storage table indicated by the Storage  
field of the command. In this case, the SubTag and Data fields should not be  
used because they are ignored by the device.  
SubTag Field Usage  
When a query is used in place of a SubTag field, the query applies only to the  
subset of commands available that match the Tag field. In this case, the Data  
field should not be used because it is ignored by the device.  
Data Field Usage  
When a query is used in place of the Data field, the query applies only to the  
specific command identified by the Tag and SubTag fields.  
Concatenation of Multiple Commands  
Multiple commands can be issued within one Prefix/Storage sequence. Only  
the Tag, SubTag, and Data fields must be repeated for each command in the  
sequence. If additional commands are to be applied to the same Tag, then the  
new command sequence is separated with a comma (,) and only the SubTag  
and Data fields of the additional command are issued. If the additional com-  
mand requires a different Tag field, the command is separated from previous  
commands by a semicolon (;).

Responses  
The device responds to serial commands with one of three responses:  
ACKIndicates a good command which has been processed.  
ENQIndicates an invalid Tag or SubTag command.  
NAKIndicates the command was good, but the Data field entry was out of the  
allowable range for this Tag and SubTag combination, e.g., an entry for a mini-  
mum message length of 100 when the field will only accept 2 characters.  
When responding, the device echoes back the command sequence with the  
status character inserted directly before each of the punctuation marks (the  
period, exclamation point, comma, or semicolon) in the command.  
Examples of Query Commands  
In the following examples, a bracketed notation [ ] depicts a non-displayable  
response.  
Example #1:What is the range of possible values for Codabar Coding Enable?  
Enter:

Trigger Commands  
You can activate and deactivate the image scanner with serial trigger com-  
mands. First, the image scanner must be put in Manual/Serial Trigger Mode  
sending the Manual/Serial Menu Command (page 10-12). Once the image  
scanner is in serial trigger mode, the trigger is activated and deactivated by  
sending the following commands:  
Activate:SYN T CR  
Deactivate:SYN U CR  
The image scanner scans until a bar code has been read, until the deactivate  
command is sent, or until the serial time-out has been reached (see Read  
Time-Out (Serial Trigger Mode) on page 3-4 for a description, and the serial  
command on page 10-12).  
Resetting the Standard Product Default Settings:  
Current Application Work Group  
If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your image scanner, or  
you’ve changed some options and want the standard product default settings  
restored, scan the Standard Product Default Settings: Current Application  
Group bar code below.

The Menu Commands starting on page 10-6 list the factory default settings for  
each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the programming pages).  
Note: Scanning this bar code also causes both the image scanner and the base  
to perform a reset and become unlinked. Refer to "Linking Image  
Scanner to Base" on page 1-5 for additional information.  
Standard Product Default Settings:  
Current Application Group  
Note: If your image scanner is in multiple image scanner mode and you scan  
either the current or all application group default bar code, you will hear  
up to 30 seconds of beeping while all image scanners are re-linked from  
the base and the settings are defaulted to * settings. The default interface  
is keyboard wedge and the default image scanner mode is single image  
scanner locked link mode.  
Resetting the Standard Product Default Settings:  
All Application Work Groups  
The following bar code defaults all of the work groups to the factory settings.  
Standard Product Default Settings:  
All Application Groups  
The Menu Commands starting on page 10-6 list the standard product default  
settings for each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the program-  
ming pages).

Maintenance  
Repairs and/or upgrades are not to be performed on this product. These ser-  
vices are to be performed only by an authorized service center. See  
"Customer Support" on page 13-1 for further information.  
Cleaning the Device  
Reading performance may degrade if the image scanner’s window is not clean.  
If the window is visibly dirty, or if the image scanner isn’t operating well, clean  
the window with a soft cloth or lens tissue dampened with water (or a mild  
soapy water solution). If a detergent solution is used, rinse with a clean lens tis-  
sue dampened with water only.  
The base and image scanner’s housing may also be cleaned the same way.  
Caution:  
!
Do not submerge the image scanner in water. The image  
scanner’s housing is not watertight.  
Do not use abrasive wipes or tissues on the image  
scanner’s window – abrasive wipes may scratch the  
window. Never use solvents (e.g., alcohol or acetone) on  
the housing or window – solvents may damage the finish  
or the window.  
Inspecting Cords and Connectors  
Inspect the base’s interface cable and connector for wear or other signs of dam-  
age. A badly worn cable or damaged connector may interfere with image scan-  
ner operation. Contact your distributor for information about cable replacement.  
Cable replacement instructions are on page 12-2.

Replacing the 2020 Interface Cable:  
1. Turn the power to the host system  
OFF.  
2. Disconnect the base’s cable from the  
terminal or computer.  
3. Turn the base upside down.  
4. Pull the connector out while  
maintaining pressure on the  
connector release clip.  
5. Replace with the new cable.  
Insert the connector into the opening  
and press firmly. The connector is  
keyed to go in only one way, and will  
click into place.  
Changing the 3820/3820i  
Battery:  
1. Remove the screw on the end  
cap on the 3820. On the  
3820i, unscrew the thumb-  
wheel end cap.  
2. Remove the battery from the  
handle.  
3. Insert battery.  
4. Replace end cap and screw or  
tighten the thumbwheel end  
cap.

Troubleshooting  
Base  
Note: Please visit the Services and Support section of our website  
(www.honeywellaidc.com) to check for the latest software for both the  
image scanner and the base.  
If your base is not functioning properly, review the following troubleshooting  
guidelines to try to isolate the problem.  
Is the red LED on?  
If the red LED isn’t illuminated, check that:  
12 - 2  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
   
The power cable is connected properly and there is power at the power  
source.  
The host system power is on (if external power isn’t used).  
Is the green LED on?  
If the green LED isn’t illuminated, check that:  
The image scanner is correctly placed in the base.  
There is external power or 12 volt host power.  
Charge mode is turned on. (See "Base Charge Mode" on page 1-4)  
The battery is not bad or deeply discharged. In some cases, the image  
scanner’s battery may trickle charge to bring it into an acceptable level and  
then transition to a normal charge cycle.  
Troubleshooting the Image Scanner  
Note: Make sure that your image scanner’s battery is charged.  
Note: Please visit the Services and Support section of our website  
(www.honeywellaidc.com) to check for the latest software for both the  
image scanner and the base.  
Is the image scanner having trouble reading your symbols?  
If the image scanner isn’t reading symbols well, check that the symbols:  
Aren’t smeared, rough, scratched, or exhibiting voids.  
Aren’t coated with frost or water droplets on the surface.  
Are enabled in the base to which the image scanner connects.  
Is the bar code displayed but not entered into the application?  
The bar code is displayed on the host device correctly, but you still have to press  
a key to enter it (the Enter/Return key or the Tab key, for example).  
You need to program a suffix. Programming a suffix enables the image scanner  
to output the bar code data plus the key you need (such as “CR”) to enter the  
data into your application. Refer to Prefix/Suffix Overview on page 4-1 for fur-  
ther information.  
Does the image scanner read the bar code incorrectly?  
If the image scanner reads a bar code, but the data is not displayed correctly on  
the host screen:  
The base may not be programmed for the appropriate terminal interface.  
For example, you scan “12345” and the host displays “@es%.”  
Reprogram the base with the correct Plug and Play or Terminal selection bar  
code. See Chapter 1 and Chapter 2.  
The base may not be programmed to output your bar code data properly.  
For example, you scan “12345” and the host displays “A12345B.”  
Reprogram the base with the proper symbology selections. See Chapter 6.

1. Scan the sample bar codes in the back of this manual. If the image scanner  
reads the sample bar codes, check that your bar code is readable.  
Verify that your bar code symbology is enabled (see Chapter 6).  
Symbologies on page 6-1.  
If you aren’t sure what programming options have been set in the base, or if you  
want the factory default settings restored, scan Resetting the Standard Product  
Default Settings: Current Application Work Group on page 10-4.  
Troubleshooting the Cordless System  
The image scanner must be linked to the base for the system to work properly.  
See "Linking Image Scanner to Base" on page 1-5.

This warranty shall extend from the time of shipment for the duration published  
by Honeywell for the product at the time of purchase ("Warranty Period"). Any  
defective product must be returned (at purchaser’s expense) during the War-  
ranty Period to Honeywell’s factory or authorized service center for inspection.  
No product will be accepted by Honeywell without a Return Materials Authoriza-  
tion, which may be obtained by contacting Honeywell. In the event that the  
product is returned to Honeywell or its authorized service center within the War-  
ranty Period and Honeywell determines to its satisfaction that the product is  
defective due to defects in materials or workmanship, Honeywell, at its sole  
option, will either repair or replace the product without charge, except for return  
shipping to Honeywell.  
EXCEPT AS MAY BE OTHERWISE PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE  
FOREGOING WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER COVENANTS OR  
WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, ORAL OR WRITTEN,  
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MER-  
CHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

FORCE AND EFFECT EVEN WHEN HONEYWELL MAY HAVE BEEN  
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH INJURIES, LOSSES, OR DAM-  
AGES. SOME STATES, PROVINCES, OR COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW THE  
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATIONS OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAM-  
AGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO  
YOU.

Code Page Mapping of Printed bar codes  
Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If the data

Minimizing Bluetooth/ISM Band  
Network Activity  
The settings described below can help you customize the re-linking behavior of  
the cordless linear imaging system to obtain the best compromise between  
convenience and low interference.  
Note: ISM band refers to the 2.4 to 2.48 GHz frequency band used by wireless  
networks, cordless phones, and Bluetooth.  
Auto Reconnect Mode  
Auto Reconnect controls whether or not the image scanner automatically begins  
the re-link process when a loss of connection is detected. When the Auto  
Reconnect On bar code is scanned, the image scanner begins the re-link  
process immediately, without user intervention. Default = Auto Reconnect On.  
* Auto Reconnect On  
The table below shows the results of the Auto Reconnect On and Off settings:

Maximum Link Attempts  
The Maximum Link Attempts setting controls the number of times the image  
scanner tries to form a connection with a base unit or PC. During the  
connection setup process, the image scanner transmits in order to search for  
and connect to a base unit. In order to prevent continuous transmissions that  
could interfere with other users of the ISM band, the number of attempts to  
connect is limited by this setting. After the maximum number of attempts is  
reached, the image scanner will not attempt to reconnect to the base unit.  
Pressing the trigger or placing the image scanner in the cradle resets the  
attempt count and the image scanner will again try to link to the base unit.  
When set to zero, the image scanner will try to link until the Power Time-Out  
Timer setting (see page 3-4) expires.  
Scan the Maximum Link Attempts bar code, then scan the number of attempts  
for the setting (from 0-100) from the inside back cover. Scan Save to save the  
setting. Default = 0.  
Maximum Link Attempts  
Relink Time-Out  
Relink Time-Out controls the idle time between re-link attempts. An attempt to  
link an image scanner to a base unit typically lasts up to 5 seconds. This is the  
time when the image scanner is actually attempting to contact base unit. Relink  
Time-Out controls the amount of time, in seconds, that elapses between the end  
of one connection attempt and the start of the next.  
Note: The length of time for an attempt depends on the number of image  
scanners connected to a base unit. An extra 7 seconds may be required  
when a connection is successful.

Scan the Relink Time-Out bar code, then scan the number of seconds for the  
setting (from 1-100) from the inside back cover. Scan Save to save the setting.  
Default = 3 seconds.  
Relink Time-Out  
Bluetooth/ISM Network Activity Examples  
Default values:  
When the image scanner goes out of range, the image scanner repeatedly  
attempts to connect to base unit. Each attempt consists of approximately 5  
seconds of active time followed by 3 seconds of idle time. After one hour, the  
image scanner powers off and batch mode data is lost.  
Maximum Link Attempts set to 15  
Other values at default setting:  
When the image scanner goes out of range, 15 attempts are made to link to  
the base unit. Each attempt consists of approximately 5 seconds of active time  
followed by 3 seconds of idle time. After 15 cycles (8*15 =120), or about 2  
minutes, the image scanner stops trying to connect to the base unit, but retains  
any bar codes that may have been saved in batch mode. After one hour, the  
image scanner powers off and batch mode data is lost.  
Auto Reconnect Mode set to 0  
Other values at default setting:  
When the image scanner goes out of range, no action is taken to re-link. When  
the trigger is pulled, 15 attempts are made to link to the base unit. Each  
attempt consists of approximately 5 seconds of active time followed by 3  
seconds of idle time. After 15 cycles (8*15 =120), or about 2 minutes, the  
image scanner stops trying to connect to the base unit, but retains any bar  
codes that may have been saved in batch mode. After one hour, the image  
scanner powers off and batch mode data is lost. Refer to (see Auto Reconnect  
Mode on page B-1), to review other events that can start the re-link process.
