Programming the Interface
Introduction
This chapter describes how to program your system for the desired interface.
Programming the Interface - Plug and Play
Plug and Play bar codes provide instant scanner set up for commonly used interfaces.
Note: After you scan one of the codes, power cycle the host terminal to have the interface in effect.
Keyboard Wedge
If you want your system programmed for an IBM PC AT and compatibles keyboard wedge interface with a USA keyboard, 
scan the bar code below....

RS485
Scan one of the following “Plug and Play” codes to program the scanner for an IBM POS terminal interface.
Note: After scanning one of these codes, you must power cycle the cash register.
Each bar code above also programs the following suffixes for each symbology:
* Suffixes programmed for Code 128 with IBM 4683 Port 5B, IBM 4683 Port 9B HHBCR-1, and IBM 4683 Port 17 Interfaces
**Suffixes programmed for Code 128 with IBM 4683 Port 9 HHBCR-2 Interface
OPOS Mode
The following bar code configures...

USB IBM SurePos
Scan one of the following “Plug and Play” codes to program the scanner for an IBM SurePos (USB handheld scanner) or 
IBM SurePos (USB tabletop scanner) interface.
Note: After scanning one of these codes, you must power cycle the cash register.
Each bar code above also programs the following suffixes for each symbology:
IBM Secondary Interface
On some older IBM cash registers, it may be necessary to disable the secondary or management interface.   In particular, it 
has been found...

USB PC or Macintosh Keyboard
Scan one of the following codes to program the scanner for USB PC Keyboard or USB Macintosh Keyboard.  Scanning 
these codes also adds a CR and LF for Voyager 1200g and adds CR for Voyager 1202g and 1202g-BF.
USB HID
Scan the following code to program the scanner for USB HID bar code scanner.
HID Fallback Mode
If you attempt to set a USB interface for your scanner, but the setup fails on the host system, you can program the scanner 
to fall back to a USB Keyboard (PC)...

USB Serial Commands
USB Serial 
Scan one of the following codes to program the scanner to emulate a regular RS232-based COM Port.  If you are using a 
Microsoft® Windows® PC, you will need to download the USB serial driver from the Honeywell website 
(www.honeywellaidc.com).  The driver will use the next available COM Port number.  Apple® Macintosh computers recog-
nize the scanner as a USB CDC class device and automatically use a class driver. 
Scanning either of these codes also adds a CR and...

ACK/NAK Mode
Communication Timeout
This allows you to set the length (in milliseconds) for a timeout for the host ACK/NAK response.  Scan the bar code below, 
then set the timeout (from 0-65535 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart, then scanning Save.   
Default = 2000 ms.
Timeout Retries
This setting limits the number of Communication Timeout retries.  If the Timeout Retries is set to 0, the transmission is 
terminated after the initial Communication Timeout.  Scan the bar...

Support BEL/CAN in ACK/NAK
This protocol responds to  and  commands when in ACK/NAK mode.  The scanner sounds an error tone 
when a  command is sent from the host.   terminates the transmission.  Default = BEL/CAN Off.
Verifone® Ruby Terminal Default Settings
Scan the following Plug and Play code to program the scanner for a Verifone Ruby terminal.  This bar code sets the baud rate to 
1200 bps and the data format to 8 data bits, Mark parity, 1 stop bit and RTS/CTS no timeout.  It also adds a line...

2 - 8
Gilbarco® Terminal Default Settings
Scan the following Plug and Play code to program the scanner for a Gilbarco terminal.  This bar code sets the baud rate to 2400 
bps and the data format to 7 data bits, even parity, 2 stop bits.  It also adds a carriage return (CR) suffix and programs the follow-
ing prefixes for each symbology:
Note: If you are having unexpected results with this programming code, scan the Resetting the Custom Defaultsbar code on 
page 1-7 first, then scan the programming code...

2 - 9
NCR Bioptic Aux Port Configuration
Scan the following Plug and Play code to program the scanner for an NCR bioptic scanner auxiliary port configuration.  This bar 
code sets the baud rate to 9600 bps and the data format to 7 data bits, Even parity, 1 stop bit and Message RTS/CTS with time-
out.  The following prefixes are programmed for each symbology:
Note: If you are having unexpected results with this programming code, scan the Resetting the Custom Defaultsbar code on 
page 1-7 first, then scan...

Wincor Nixdorf Beetle™ Terminal Default Settings
Scan the following Plug and Play code to program the scanner for a Wincor Nixdorf Beetle terminal.  The following prefixes are 
programmed for each symbology:
Note: If you are having unexpected results with this programming code, scan the Resetting the Custom Defaultsbar code on 
page 1-7 first, then scan the programming code above.
Wincor Nixdorf RS232 Mode A
Scan the following Plug and Play code to program the scanner for a Wincor Nixdorf RS232...
