CodeGate
When CodeGate is On, the button is used to allow decoded data to be transmitted to the host system.  The scanner 
remains on, scanning and decoding bar codes, but the bar code data is not transmitted until the button is pressed.  When 
CodeGate is Off, bar code data is transmitted when it is decoded.  Default = CodeGate Off in-Stand, CodeGate On Out-of-
Stand.
Button Function
Note: Button Function applies only to the Voyager 1202.  It is not supported in the Voyager 1200.
When Button Function is set to On, press and hold the button for 7 seconds to change the CodeGate setting from Code-
Gate Off Out-of-Stand to CodeGate On Out-of-Stand. When the scanner is power cycled, the CodeGate function reverts 
to the saved CodeGate setting.  When Button Function is set to Off, holding the button down for 7 seconds shuts down the 
scanner.  Default = Off.
Object Detection Mode
Object Detection Mode uses an LED to detect when an object is in the scanner’s field of view.  When an object is detected, 
the laser turns on and the scanner attempts to scan the bar code.   Default = Object Detection Mode On In-Stand.

End Object Detection After Good Read
After a bar code is successfully detected and read from the scanner, the laser can be programmed either to remain on and 
scanning, or to turn off.  When End Object Detection After Good Readis enabled, the laser turns off and stops scanning 
after a good read.  If you scan Do Not End Object Detection After Good Read, the laser remains on after a good read.  
Default = End Object Detection After Good Read.

Object Detection Laser Timeout
You can set a timeout for the length of time the laser remains on and attempting to decode bar codes after an object is 
detected.  Set the length (in milliseconds) for a timeout by scanning the following bar code, then setting the timeout (from 1-
65535 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart, then scanning Save.  Default = 5000 ms.
Object Detection Distance
When you are using Object Detection Mode, you can set the distance range for detecting objects.  Short sets the scanner 
to detect objects approximately 5 inches (12.7cm) away from the nose.  Long sets it to detect objects approximately 10 
inches (25.4cm) away.  Default = Short In-Stand, Long Out-of-Stand.
Character Activation Mode
You may use a character sent from the host to trigger the scanner to begin scanning.  When the activation character is received, 
the scanner continues scanning until either the Character Activation Laser Timeout(page 5-12),  the deactivation character is 
received (see Deactivation Character on page 5-13), or a bar code is transmitted.  Scan the following On bar code to use char-
acter activation, then use Activation Character (following) to select the character you will send from the host to start scanning.  
Default = Off.

Activation Character
This sets the character used to trigger scanning when using Character Activation Mode.  On the ASCII Conversion Chart 
(Code Page 1252), page A-2, find the hex value that represents the character you want to use to trigger scanning.  Scan 
the following bar code, then use the Programming Chart to read the alphanumeric combination that represents that ASCII 
character.  Scan Save to finish.
End Character Activation After Good Read
After a bar code is successfully detected and read from the scanner, the laser can be programmed either to remain on and 
scanning, or to turn off.  When End Character Activation After Good Readis enabled, the laser turns off and stops scan-
ning after a good read.  If you scan Do Not End Character Activation After Good Read, the laser remains on after a good 
read.  Default = End Character Activation After Good Read.
Character Activation Laser Timeout
You can set a timeout for the length of time the laser remains on and attempting to decode bar codes when using Character 
Activation Mode.  Set the length (in milliseconds) for a timeout by scanning the following bar code, then setting the timeout 
(from 1-65535 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart, then scanning Save.  Default = 5000 ms.
Character Deactivation Mode
If you have sent a character from the host to trigger the scanner to begin scanning, you can also send a deactivation character 
to stop scanning.  Scan the following On bar code to use character deactivation, then use Deactivation Character (following) to 
select the character you will send from the host to terminate scanning.  Default = Off.

Deactivation Character
This sets the character used to terminate scanning when using Character Deactivation Mode.  On the ASCII Conversion 
Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-2, find the hex value that represents the character you want to use to terminate scanning.  
Scan the following bar code, then use the Programming Chart to read the alphanumeric combination that represents that 
ASCII character.  Scan Save to finish.
Reread Delay
This sets the time period before the 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.  Use shorter delays in 
applications where repetitive bar code scanning is required.  Default = Medium.  
User-Specified Reread Delay
If you want to set your own length for the reread delay, scan the following bar code, then set the delay (from 0-30,000 millisec-
onds) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart, then scanning Save.

Output Sequence Overview
Output Sequence Editor
This programming selection allows you to program the 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 scanner to the following Universal values.  These are the defaults.  Be certain you want to 
delete or clear all formats before you read the Default Sequence symbol.
Note: If CodeGate is enabled, you must hold the button down while reading each bar code in a sequence.
Note: To make Output Sequence Editor selections, you’ll need to know the code I.D., code length, and character match(es) 
your application requires.  Use the Alphanumeric symbols on the Programming Chart to read these options.
To Add an Output Sequence
1. Scan the Enter Sequence symbol (see Require Output Sequence, page 5-17).
2.Code I.D.
On the Symbology Chartson page A-1, find the symbology to which you want to apply the output sequence format.  
Locate the Hex value for that symbology 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 the Programming Chart.  (Note:  50 characters is entered as 0050.  9999 is a 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 ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), page A-2, find the Hex value that represents the character(s) you 
want to match.  Use the Programming 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, or Save to save your entries.

Output Sequence Example
In this example, you are scanning Code 93, Code 128, and Code 39 bar codes, but you want the 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.
You would set up the sequence editor with the following command line:
SEQBLK62999941FF6A999942FF69999943FF
The breakdown of the command line follows:
A - Code 39
B - Code 128
C - Code 93 
						

							5 - 15
SEQBLK sequence editor start command
62 code identifier for Code 39
9999 code length that must match for Code 39, 9999 = all lengths
41 start character match for Code 39, 41h = “A”
FF termination string for first code
6A code identifier for Code 128
9999 code length that must match for Code 128, 9999 = all lengths
42 start character match for Code 128, 42h = “B”
FF termination string for second code
69 code identifier for Code 93
9999 code length that must match for Code 93, 9999 = all lengths
43 start character match for Code 93, 43h = “C”
FF termination string for third code
To program the previous example using specific lengths, you would have to count any programmed prefixes, suffixes, or for-
matted characters as part of the length.  If you use the example on page 5-14, but assume a  suffix and specific code 
lengths, you would use the following command line:
SEQBLK62001241FF6A001342FF69001243FF
The breakdown of the command line follows:
SEQBLK sequence editor start command
62 code identifier for Code 39
0012 A - Code 39 sample length (11) plus CR suffix (1) = 12
41 start character match for Code 39, 41h = “A”
FF termination string for first code
6A code identifier for Code 128
0013 B - Code 128 sample length (12) plus CR suffix (1) = 13
42 start character match for Code 128, 42h = “B”
FF termination string for second code
69 code identifier for Code 93
0012 C - Code 93 sample length (11) plus CR suffix (1) = 12
43 start character match for Code 93, 43h = “C”
FF termination string for third code

Output Sequence Editor   
Sequence Timeout
You may wish to set the maximum time between bar code scans in an output sequence.  If that maximum time is not met, 
the output sequence operation is terminated.  Set the length (in milliseconds) for a timeout by scanning the following bar 
code, then setting the timeout (from 1-65535 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the Programming Chart, then scanning 
Save.  Default = 5000 msec.
Sequence Match Beeper
By default, the scanner beeps when a sequence match is found.  If you want the scanner to remain silent, scan the follow-
ing Sequence Match Beeper Off bar code.  Default = Sequence Match Beeper On. 
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 the sequence where no data match 
occurred will be skipped in the output.)
  If you have programmed a Sequence Timeout (page 5-16) and the timeout is 
reached, the partial sequence is transmitted. Default = Discard Partial Sequence.

Require Output Sequence
When an output sequence is Required, all output data must conform to an edited sequence or the scanner will not transmit 
the output data to the host device.  When it’s On/Not Required, the scanner will attempt to get the output data to conform 
to an edited sequence but, if it cannot, the 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 scanner decodes it.  Default = Off. 
No Read
With No Read turned On, the scanner notifies you if a code cannot be read.  If using an EZConfig-Scanning Tool Scan Data 
Window (see page 9-2), an “NR” appears when a code cannot be read.  If No Read is turned Off, the “NR” will not appear.  
Default = 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 7-1).  The hex code for the No Read symbol is 9C.
