Getting Started
Introduction
The Captuvo Enterprise Sleds include an optional integrated imager for scanning all types of bar codes. You have the capability to configure the scan engine
in the sled using the programming bar codes included in this user’s guide; however, the application being used might override the settings you have programmed. An optional magnetic stripe reader (MSR) for reading cards withmagnetic stripes is also available.

Out of the Box
Verify that the box contains the following items:• Captuvo Enterprise Sled
• Charger (if appropriate)• USB Cable• Quick Start Guide• Regulatory Sheet
Note: If you ordered accessories for your sled, verify that they are also included
with the order.
Be sure to keep the original packaging in case you need to return the sled forservice.
Note: Honeywell is not an authorized Apple repair center. Please return only
your sled to us for repair. Honeywell is not liable for any non-Honeywellproduct shipped to our repair center.
Note: Refer to your Apple device’s documentation for important product andsafety information.

Operating Temperature
The maximum operating temperature range for the Captuvo sled is 0°C to 35°C
(32°F to 95°F).

1-1

Reading Techniques
The sled has a view finder that projects a bright red aiming beam that corresponds to the sled’s horizontal field of view. The aiming beam should be centered over the bar code, but it can be positioned in any direction for a good read.
Linear bar code

2D Matrix symbol

The aiming beam is smaller when the sled is closer to the code and larger when
it is farther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size)
should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements (milsize) should be read farther from the unit. To read single or multiple symbols(on a page or on an object), hold the sled at an appropriate distance from thetarget, pull the trigger, and center the aiming beam on the symbol. If the code
being scanned is highly reflective (e.g., laminated), it may be necessary to tilt
the code up 15° to 18° to prevent unwanted reflection.

Setting Custom Defaults
You have the ability to create a set of menu commands as your own, custom
defaults. To do so, scan the Set Custom Defaults bar code below before scanning the menu commands for your custom defaults. If a menu command
requires scanning numeric codes from the back cover, then a Save code, that

1-2

entire sequence will be saved to your custom defaults. When you have entered
all the commands you want to save for your custom defaults, scan the Save
Custom Defaults bar code.

Set Custom Defaults

Save Custom Defaults

You may have a series of custom settings and want to correct a single setting.
To do so, just scan the new setting to overwrite the old one. For example, if you
had previously saved the setting for Beeper Volume at Low to your custom
defaults, and decide you want the beeper volume set to High, just scan the Set
Custom Defaults bar code, then scan the Beeper Volume High menu code,and then Save Custom Defaults. The rest of the custom defaults will remain,
but the beeper volume setting will be updated.

Resetting the Custom Defaults
If you want the custom default settings restored to your sled, scan the Activate
Custom Defaults bar code below. This is the recommended default bar codefor most users. It resets the sled to the custom default settings. If there are no
custom defaults, it will reset the sled to the factory default settings. Any settings
that have not been specified through the custom defaults will be defaulted to thefactory default settings.

Activate Custom Defaults

1-3

Resetting the Factory Defaults!

This selection erases all your settings and resets the sled to the original
factory defaults. It also disables all plugins.

If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your sled, or you’ve changedsome options and want to restore the sled to factory default settings, first scan
the Remove Custom Defaults bar code, then scan Activate Defaults. This
resets the sled to the factory default settings.

Remove Custom Defaults

Activate Defaults

The Menu Commands, beginning on page 6-5 list the factory default settings foreach of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the programming pages).

Input/Output Settings
Good Read and Error Indicators
Beeper – Good Read
The beeper may be programmed On or Off in response to a good read.
Turning this option off, only turns off the beeper response to a good readindication. All error and menu beeps are still audible. Default = Beeper Good Read On.

Beeper - Good Read Off* Beeper - Good Read On

Beeper Volume – Good Read
The beeper volume codes modify the volume of the beep the sled emits on
a good read. Default = High.

Low

Medium* HighOff

2-1

Manual Trigger Mode
When in manual trigger mode, the scanner scans until a bar code is read, or
until the trigger is released. Normal mode offers good scan speed and the longest working ranges (depth of field). Default = Manual Trigger-Normal.

Manual Trigger - Normal

Mobile Phone Read Mode
When this mode is selected, your sled is optimized to read bar codes frommobile phone or other LED displays. However, the speed of scanning printed
bar codes may be slightly lower when this mode is enabled.

Hand Held Scanning - Mobile
Phone

Note: To turn off Mobile Phone Read Mode, scan a Manual Trigger Mode bar
code (see page 2-2).

Centering
Use Centering to narrow the sled’s field of view to make sure the sled reads
only those bar codes intended by the user. For instance, if multiple codes areplaced closely together, centering will insure that only the desired codes areread.
If a bar code is not touched by a predefined window, it will not be decoded or
output by the scanner. If centering is turned on by scanning Centering On, thescanner only reads codes that pass through the centering window you specify
using the Top of Centering Window, Bottom of Centering Window, Left, andRight of Centering Window bar codes.

2-2In the example below, the white box is the centering window. The centering window has been set to 20% left, 30% right, 8% top, and 25% bottom. Since Bar
Code 1 passes through the centering window, it will be read. Bar Code 2 does
not pass through the centering window, so it will not be read.

Note: A bar code needs only to be touched by the centering window in order tobe read. It does not need to pass completely through the centering
window.
Scan Centering On, then scan one of the following bar codes to change thetop, bottom, left, or right of the centering window. Then scan the percent you
want to shift the centering window using digits on the inside back cover of thismanual. Scan Save. Default Centering = 40% for Top and Left, 60% for Bottom and Right.

Preferred Symbology
The sled can be programmed to specify one symbology as a higher priority overother 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 sled in a retail setting to read U.P.C. symbols, but have occasional need to read a code on a drivers license. Since somelicenses 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 theCode 39.
Preferred Symbology classifies each symbology as high priority, low priority,
or as an unspecified type. When a low priority symbology is presented, thesled ignores it for a set period of time (see Preferred Symbology Time-out on
page 2-5) 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 sledwill read any bar code in its view (low priority or unspecified). If there is no bar
code in the sled’s view after the time-out period expires, then no data isreported.
Note: A low priority symbol must be centered on the aiming pattern to be read.

2-4

Scan a bar code below to enable or disable Preferred Symbology.
Preferred Symbology Off.

Default =Preferred Symbology On* Preferred Symbology Off

High Priority Symbology
To specify the high priority symbology, scan the High Priority Symbology
bar code below. On the Symbology Charts on page A-1, find the symbology you want to set as high priority. Locate the Hex value for that symbology and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart (insideback cover). Scan Save to save your selection. Default = None

High Priority Symbology

Low Priority Symbology
To specify the low priority symbology, scan the Low Priority Symbology bar
code below. On the Symbology Charts 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 backcover).
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 yourselection. Default = None

Low Priority Symbology

Preferred Symbology Time-out
Once you have enabled Preferred Symbology and entered the high and low
priority symbologies, you must set the time-out period. This is the period oftime the sled will search for a high priority bar code after a low priority bar

2-5

code has been encountered. Scan the bar code below, then set the delay(from 1-3,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the inside back cover,then scanning Save. Default = 500 ms.

Output Sequence Overview
Require Output Sequence
When turned off, the bar code data will be output to the host as the sleddecodes it. When turned on, all output data must conform to an editedsequence or the sled will not transmit the output data to the host device.
Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection isturned on.

Output Sequence Editor
This programming selection allows you to program the sled 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 sled to the Universal
values, shown below. These are the defaults. Be certain you want todelete 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.
Note: To make Output Sequence Editor selections, you’ll need to know thecode I.D., code length, and character match(es) your application
requires. Use the Alphanumeric symbols (inside back cover) to readthese options.

2-6

To Add an Output Sequence
1. Scan the Enter Sequence symbol (see Require Output
Sequence, page 2-10).
2. Code I.D.
On the Symbology Charts on page A-1, find the symbology to which you
want to apply the output sequence format. Locate the Hex value for thatsymbology and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart(inside back cover).
3. Length
Specify what length (up to 9999 characters) of data output will be
acceptable for this symbology. Scan the four digit data length from theProgramming Chart. (Note: 50 characters is entered as 0050. 9999 isa universal number, indicating all lengths.) When calculating the length,
you must count any programmed prefixes, suffixes, or formatted
characters as part of the length (unless using 9999).
4. Character Match Sequences
On the ISO 2022/ISO 646 Character Replacements, page A-10, find theHex value that represents the character(s) you want to match. Use theProgramming Chart to read the alphanumeric combination that
represents the ASCII characters. (99 is the Universal number,indicating all characters.)
5. End Output Sequence Editor
Scan F F to enter an Output Sequence for an additional symbology, orSave to save your entries.

Other Programming Selections• Discard
This exits without saving any Output Sequence changes.

2-7Output Sequence Example
In this example, you are scanning Code 93, Code 128, and Code 39 bar
codes, but you want the sled to output Code 39 1st, Code 128 2nd, andCode 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 tocount any programmed prefixes, suffixes, or formatted characters as part ofthe length. If you use the example on page 2-8, but assume a <CR> suffix
and specific code lengths, you would use the following command line:
SEQBLK62001241FF6A001342FF69001243FF

Output Sequence EditorEnter Sequence

Default Sequence

Partial Sequence
If an output sequence operation is terminated before all your output
sequence criteria are met, the bar code data acquired to that point is a“partial sequence.”
Scan Discard Partial Sequence to discard partial sequences when the
output sequence operation is terminated before completion. Scan Transmit Partial Sequence to transmit partial sequences. (Any fields in thesequence where no data match occurred will be skipped in the output.)

Transmit Partial Sequence* Discard Partial Sequence

2-9Require Output Sequence
When an output sequence is Required, all output data must conform to anedited sequence or the sled will not transmit the output data to the hostdevice. When it’s On/Not Required, the sled will attempt to get the output
data to conform to an edited sequence but, if it cannot, the sled 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 sled decodes it. Default = Off.
Note: This selection is unavailable when the Multiple Symbols Selection isturned on.

Required

On/Not Required*Off

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

* Off

2 - 10No ReadWith No Read turned On, the sled notifies you if a code cannot be read. If using
an EZConfig Tool Scan Data Window (see page 9-3), an “NR” appears when acode cannot be read. If No Read is turned Off, the “NR” will not appear.
Default = Off.

On

* Off

If you want a different notation than “NR,” for example, “Error,” or “Bad Code,”
you can edit the output message (see Data Formatting beginning on page 4-1).
The hex code for the No Read symbol is 9C.

Video Reverse
Video Reverse is used to allow the sled to read bar codes that are inverted. The
Video Reverse Off bar code below is an example of this type of bar code.
Scan Video Reverse Only to read only inverted bar codes. Scan Video
Reverse and Standard Bar Codes to read both types of codes.
Note: After scanning Video Reverse Only, menu bar codes cannot be read.
You must scan Video Reverse Off or Video Reverse and Standard Bar
Codes in order to read menu bar codes.
Note: Images downloaded from the unit are not reversed. This is a setting fordecoding only.

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 andafter scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all symbologies,
or only with specific symbologies. The following illustration shows the breakdown of a message string:
Prefi
x
1-11
Scan
ned D
alpha

Points to Keep In Mind
• It is not necessary to build a message string. The selections in thischapter 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 (CodePage 1252), beginning on page A-4, plus Code I.D. and AIM I.D.
• You can string together several entries for several symbologies at one
time.
• Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to appear
on 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.
• The maximum size of a prefix or suffix configuration is 200 characters,
which includes header information.

To Add a Prefix or Suffix:
Step 1. Scan the Add Prefix or Add Suffix symbol (page 3-3).
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart(included in the Symbology Charts, beginning on page A-1) for the

3-1

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 backcover of this manual or scan 9, 9 for all symbologies.
Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (CodePage 1252), beginning 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 theback 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 U.P.C. only:
Step 1. Scan Add Suffix.
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit hex value from the Symbology Chart(included in the Symbology Charts, beginning on page A-1) for
U.P.C.
Step 3. Scan 6, 3 from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of thismanual.
Step 4. Determine the hex value from the ASCII Conversion Chart (CodePage 1252), beginning on page A-4, for the CR (carriage return).
Step 5. Scan 0, D from the Programming Chart inside the back cover of thismanual.
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
symbology. If you have been entering prefixes and suffixes for single symbologies, you can use Clear One Prefix (Suffix) to delete a specific character from a symbology. When you Clear All Prefixes (Suffixes), all theprefixes or suffixes for a symbology are deleted.

3-2

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 Symbology Charts, beginning on page A-1) for thesymbology from which you want to clear the prefix or suffix.

Data Formatting
Data Format Editor Introduction
You may use the Data Format Editor to change the sled’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 outputted automatically. However
when you create a format, you must use a “send” command (see Send
Commands on page 4-4) within the format program to output data.
Multiple formats may be programmed into the sled. They are stacked in theorder in which they are entered. However, the following list presents the orderin which formats are applied:
1. Specific Terminal ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length
2. Specific Terminal ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length
3. Specific Terminal ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length
4. Specific Terminal ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length
5. Universal Terminal ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length
6. Universal Terminal ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length
7. Universal Terminal ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length
8. Universal Terminal ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length
The maximum size of a data format configuration is 2000 bytes, which includes
header information.
If you have changed data format settings, and wish to clear all formats andreturn to the factory defaults, scan the Default Data Format code below.

* Default Data Format

To Add a Data Format
Step 1. Scan the Enter Data Format symbol (page 4-2).
Step 2. Select Primary/Alternate Format
Determine if this will be your primary data format, or one of 3 alternate
formats. This allows you to save a total of 4 different data formats. To
program your primary format, scan 0 using the Programming Chart
inside the back cover of this manual. If you are programming analternate format, scan 1, 2, or 3, depending on which alternate format

4-1

you are programming. (See Primary/Alternate Data Formats on page
4-17 for further information.)
Step 3. Terminal Type
Refer to Terminal ID Table (page 4-4) and locate the Terminal ID
number for your PC. Scan three numeric bar codes on the inside backcover to program the scanner for your terminal ID (you must enter 3
digits). For example, scan 0 0 3 for an AT wedge.
Note: 099 indicates all terminal types.
Step 4. Code I.D.
In the Symbology Charts, beginning on page A-1, find the symbology towhich you want to apply the data format. Locate the Hex value for thatsymbology and scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart
inside the back cover of this manual.
If you wish to create a data format for all symbologies, with the exception of some specific symbologies, refer to B8 (page 4-14).
If you are creating a data format for Batch Mode Quantity, use 35 for
the Code I.D.
Note: 99 indicates all symbologies.
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 theProgramming Chart inside the back cover of this manual. For example,
50 characters is entered as 0050.
Note: 9999 indicates all lengths.
Step 6. Editor Commands
Refer to Data Format Editor Commands (page 4-4). Scan the symbols
that represent the command you want to enter. 94 alphanumericcharacters may be entered for each symbology data format.
Step 7. Scan Save to save your data format, or Discard to exit without saving
your changes.

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 backcover of this manual. If you are clearing an alternate format, scan 1, 2,
or 3, depending on the format you are clearing. Scan the Terminal Typeand Code I.D. (see Symbology Charts on page A-1), and the bar code
data length for the specific data format that you want to delete. All otherformats remain unaffected.

Discard Data
B8 Discards types of data. For example, you may want to discard Code128 bar codes that begin with the letter A. In step 4 (page 4-2), select
6A (for Code 128), and in step 5, select 9999 (for all lengths). Enter
FE41B8 to compare and discard Code 128 bar codes that begin withthe letter A. Syntax = B8.
The B8 command must be entered after all other commands.
The Data Format must be Required (see page 4-15) in order for the
B8 command to work. If Data Format is On, but Not Required (page 416), bar code data that meets the B8 format is scanned and output as
usual.

4 - 14Other data format settings impact the B8 command. If Data Format
Non-Match Error Tone is On (page 4-16), the scanner emits an error
tone. If Data format Non-Match Error Tone is Off, the code is disabled
for reading and no tone is sounded.

Data Formatter
When Data Formatter is turned Off, the bar code data is output to the host as
read, including prefixes and suffixes.

Data Formatter Off

You may wish to require the data to conform to a data format you have createdand saved. The following settings can be applied to your data format:
Data Formatter On, Not Required, Keep Prefix/Suffix
Scanned data is modified according to your data format, and prefixes andsuffixes are transmitted.
Data Formatter On, Not Required, Drop Prefix/Suffix
Scanned data is modified according to your data format. If a data format isfound for a particular symbol, those prefixes and suffixes are nottransmitted.
Data Format Required, Keep Prefix/Suffix
Scanned data is modified according to your data format, and prefixes andsuffixes are transmitted. Any data that does not match your data format
requirements generates an error tone and the data in that bar code is nottransmitted. If you wish to process this type of bar code without generating
an error tone, see Data Format Non-Match Error Tone.
Data Format Required, Drop Prefix/Suffix
Scanned data is modified according to your data format. If a data format isfound for a particular symbol, those prefixes and suffixes are nottransmitted. Any data that does not match your data format requirements
generates an error tone. If you wish to process this type of bar code without
generating an error tone, see Data Format Non-Match Error Tone.

Primary/Alternate Data Formats
You can save up to four data formats, and switch between these formats. Your
primary data format is saved under 0. Your other three formats are saved under
1, 2, and 3. To set your device to use one of these formats, scan one of the bar
codes below.

Primary Data Format

Data Format 1

Data Format 2

Data Format 3

Single Scan Data Format Change
You can also switch between data formats for a single scan. The next bar
code is scanned using an alternate data format, then reverts to the format
you have selected above (either Primary, 1, 2, or 3).

4 - 17

For example, you may have set your device to the data format you saved as
Data Format 3. You can switch to Data Format 1 for a single trigger pull by
scanning the Single Scan-Data Format 1 bar code below. The next bar
code that is scanned uses Data Format 1, then reverts back to Data Format 3.

All Symbologies
If you want to decode all the symbologies allowable for your sled, scan the All
Symbologies On code. If on the other hand, you want to decode only a particular symbology, scan All Symbologies Off followed by the On symbol for thatparticular symbology.

All Symbologies On

All Symbologies Off

Note: When All Symbologies On is scanned, 2D Postal Codes are not enabled.
2D Postal Codes must be enabled separately.

Message Length Description
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 sled will issue an error tone. You may wish to set the same value
for minimum and maximum length to force the sled to read fixed length bar code

Codabar Check Character
Codabar check characters are created using different “modulos.” You canprogram the sled to read only Codabar bar codes with Modulo 16 checkcharacters. Default = No Check Character.
No Check Character indicates that the sled reads and transmits bar code
data with or without a check character.
When Check Character is set to Validate and Transmit, the sled will only
read Codabar bar codes printed with a check character, and will transmit
this character at the end of the scanned data.

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

A 1 2 3 4 D

Data Matrix Append
This function allows the scanner to append the data from several Data
Matrix bar codes together before transmitting them to the host computer.
When the scanner encounters an Data Matrix bar code with the append
trigger character(s), it buffers the number of Data Matrix bar codes deter-

Data Matrix Code Page
Data Matrix Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If the data received does not display with the proper characters, it
may be because the bar code being scanned was created using a code
page that is different from the one the host program is expecting. If this is
the case, scan the bar code below, select the code page with which the bar
codes were created (see ISO 2022/ISO 646 Character Replacements on
page A-10), and scan the value and the Save bar code from theProgramming Chart on the inside the back cover of this manual. The datacharacters should then appear properly.

Serial Programming Commands
Note: This section is for developers’ reference only.
The serial programming commands can be used in place of the programmingbar codes. Both the serial commands and the programming bar codes will program the sled. For complete descriptions and examples of each serial programming command, refer to the corresponding programming bar code in thismanual.
The device must be set to an RS232 interface (see page 2-1). 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:parameter A label representing the actual value you should send as part of acommand.
[option]An optional part of a command.
{Data}
Alternatives in a command.
bold
Names of menus, menu commands, buttons, dialog boxes, andwindows that appear on the screen.

Menu Command Syntax
Menu commands have the following syntax (spaces have been used for clarity
only):
Prefix Tag SubTag {Data} [, SubTag {Data}] [; Tag SubTag {Data}] […] Storage
PrefixThree ASCII characters: SYN M CR (ASCII 22,77,13).

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.

SubTagA 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.

Data

The new value for a menu setting, identified by the Tag and SubTag.

StorageA single character that specifies the storage table to which thecommand is applied. An exclamation point (!) performs the command’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.

6-1

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 device’s
response uses a dash (-) to indicate a continuous range of values. A
pipe (|) separates items in a list of non-continuous values.):Name: Field Usage (Optional)
This command returns the query information from the sled.

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 tothe 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 tothe 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 thesame 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 command requires a different Tag field, the command isseparated from previous commands by a semicolon (;).

Responses
The device responds to serial commands with one of three responses:
ACK Indicates a good command which has been processed.
ENQ Indicates an invalid Tag or SubTag command.

6-2

NAK Indicates the command was good, but the Data field entry was out of
the allowable range for this Tag and SubTag combination, e.g., anentry for a minimum message length of 100 when the field will only
accept 2 characters.
When responding, the device echoes back the command sequence withthe 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: What is the range of possible values for Codabar Coding Enable?
Enter:

cbrena*.

Response: CBRENA0-1[ACK]This response indicates that Codabar Coding Enable (CBRENA) has a range ofvalues from 0 to 1 (off and on).
Example: What is the default value for Codabar Coding Enable?
Enter:

cbrena^.

Response: CBRENA1[ACK]This response indicates that the default setting for Codabar Coding Enable(CBRENA) is 1, or on.
Example: What is the device’s current setting for Codabar Coding Enable?
Enter:

cbrena?.

Response: CBRENA1[ACK]This response indicates that the device’s Codabar Coding Enable (CBRENA) is
set to 1, or on.
Example: What are the device’s settings for all Codabar selections?
Enter:

cbr?.

Response: CBRENA1[ACK],
SSX0[ACK],CK20[ACK],
CCT1[ACK],
MIN2[ACK],MAX60[ACK],DFT[ACK].
This response indicates that the device’s Codabar Coding Enable (CBRENA) is
set to 1, or on;
the Start/Stop Character (SSX) is set to 0, or Don’t Transmit;
the Check Character (CK2) is set to 0, or Not Required;concatenation (CCT) is set to 1, or Enabled;

6-3

the Minimum Message Length (MIN) is set to 2 characters;
the Maximum Message Length (MAX) is set to 60 characters;
and the Default setting (DFT) has no value.

Resetting the Custom Defaults
If you want the custom default settings restored to your sled, scan the Activate
Custom Defaults bar code below. This resets the sled to the custom default
settings. If there are no custom defaults, it will reset the sled to the factory
default settings. Any settings that have not been specified through the custom
defaults will be defaulted to the factory default settings.

Activate Custom Defaults

The charts on the following pages list the factory default settings for each of thecommands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the programming pages).

badly worn cable or damaged connector may interfere with charging. Contact
your distributor for information about cable replacement.

Troubleshooting
If your sled is not functioning properly, review the following Troubleshooting
Guide to try to isolate the problem.
Is the power on? Is the red or green aiming illumination line on?
If the aiming line doesn’t appear, check that:• The battery is in the battery well.

7-1

• The battery has been charged for at least 4 hours.
• Make certain that the Honeywell Price Check Simulator application from theApple App StoreSM is loaded.
Is the sled having trouble reading your symbols?
If the sled 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.
The sled won’t read your bar code at all.
1. Scan the sample bar codes in the back of this manual. If the sled reads the
sample bar codes, check that your bar code is readable.
Verify that your bar code symbology is enabled (see Chapter 5).
2. If the sled still can’t read the sample bar codes, scan "All Symbologies
On" on page 5-2.
If you aren’t sure what programming options have been set in the sled, or if you
want the factory default settings restored, scan Resetting the Factory
Defaults on page 1-4.

ISO 2022/ISO 646 Character Replacements
Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If the data
received does not display with the proper characters, it may be because the bar
code being scanned was created using a code page that is different from theone the host program is expecting. If this is the case, select the code page withwhich the bar codes were created. The data characters should then appear
properly.
