Keyboard Wedge Modifiers
ALT Mode
If your bar code contains special characters from the extended ASCII chart 
for example, an e with an accent grave (è), you will use ALT Mode.  (See 
Extended ASCII Characters on page A-5.)
Note: Scan the ALT mode bar code after scanning the appropriate 
Keyboard Country code.

If your keystrokes require using the ALT key and 3 characters, scan the 3 
Characters bar code.  If your keystrokes require the ALT key and 4 charac-
ters, scan the 4 Characters bar code.  The data is then output with the spe-
cial character(s).  Default = Off.
Keyboard Style
This programs keyboard styles, such as Caps Lock and Shift Lock.  If you 
have used Keyboard Conversion settings, they will override any of the fol-
lowing Keyboard Style settings.  Default = Regular.
Regular is used when you...

Autocaps via NumLock bar code should be scanned in countries (e.g., 
Germany, France) where the Caps Lock key cannot be used to toggle Caps 
Lock.  The NumLock option works similarly to the regular Autocaps, but 
uses the NumLock key to retrieve the current state of the Caps Lock.
Emulate External Keyboard should be scanned if you do not have an 
external keyboard (IBM AT or equivalent).  
Note: After scanning the Emulate External Keyboard bar code, you must 
power cycle your computer.

Control + ASCII Mode On: The scanner sends key combinations for ASCII 
control characters for values 00-1F (refer to the ASCII Conversion Chart 
(Code Page 1252), page A-3).  Windows is the preferred mode.  All key-
board country codes are supported.  DOS mode is a legacy mode, and it 
does not support all keyboard country codes.  New users should use the 
Windows mode.  
Windows Mode Prefix/Suffix Off:  The scanner sends key combinations 
for ASCII control characters for values 00-1F (refer to...

between scan codes.  Set the length (in milliseconds) for a delay by scan-
ning the bar code below, then setting the delay (from 1-30) by scanning dig-
its from the Programming Chart, then scanning Save.  Default = 0 (800 µs). 
 Break Character
When your keyboard detects that any key is being pressed, released, or 
held down, the keyboard sends a packet of information known as a “scan 
code” to your computer.  There are two different types of scan codes: 
“make codes” and “break codes.”  A make...

RS232 Modifiers
RS232 Baud Rate
Baud Rate sends the data from the scanner to the terminal at the specified 
rate.  The host terminal must be set for the same baud rate as the scanner.  
Default = 9600.

RS232 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 
application requires only ASCII Hex characters 0 through 7F decimal (text, 
digits, and punctuation), select 7 data bits.  For applications that 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.
Parity provides a means of checking character bit patterns for validity.
Default = None....

RS232 Handshaking
RS232 Handshaking allows control of data transmission from the scanner 
using software commands from the host device.    When RTS/CTS is 
turned Off, no data flow control is used.  
Flow Control, No Timeout:  The scanner asserts RTS when it has data to 
send, and will wait indefinitely for CTS to be asserted by the host.
Character-Based Flow Control, No Timeout: The scanner asserts RTS 
when it has a character to send, and will wait indefinitely for CTS to be 
asserted by the...

and CTS is not asserted, the device transmit buffer is cleared and scanning 
may resume.
Default = RTS/CTS Off.
RS232 Timeout
When using Flow Control with Timeout, you must program the length of the 
delay you want to wait for CTS from the host.  Set the length (in millisec-
onds) for a timeout by scanning the bar code below, then setting the time-
out (from 1-5100 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the Programming 
Chart, then scanning Save.  Default = 1000 ms (1 second).
