OMNIDIRECTIONAL SCANNER PROGRAMMING GUIDE

Installation of An Auxiliary Handheld Scanner


Follow the steps below to use the auxiliary RS-232C port as a
handheld scanner input port:

1. Configure the handheld scanner data format as above table

requirements.

2. Turn off the host system.
3. Connect the handheld scanner to the auxiliary port.
4. Connect the external power supply for the auxiliary scanner

(if required).

5. Activate the RS-232C auxiliary port of the in-counter

scanner.



NOTE:
1. You may need to enable the AUX function of the handheld

scanner after installation. Refer to the manual of the handheld
scanner for more information or contact the distributor.


2. The auxiliary input port’s data transmission format follows the

main output format of the omnidirectional scanner, including
barcode symbologies and related parameters. For example, if the
handheld scanner can read Codabar while the omnidirectional
scanner can not, the handheld scanner would decode a Codabar
barcode without transmitting the data. To complete the data
transmission, you have to re-program the omnidirectional
scanner and enable this function.
