Honeywell 1300g2 Manual

RTS/CTS Off, RTS Inactive: RTS/CTS is turned off so no data flow control is 
used and RTS is inactive.
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 
host
Two-Direction Flow Control:  The scanner asserts RTS when it is OK for the 
host to transmit.  The host asserts CTS when it is OK for the device to transmit.
Flow Control with Timeout:  The scanner asserts RTS when it has data to 
send and waits for a delay (see RS232 Timeout on page 2-27) for CTS to be 
asserted by the host.  If the delay time expires and CTS is not asserted, the 
device transmit buffer is cleared and scanning may resume.  
Character-Based Flow Control with Timeout:  The scanner asserts RTS 
when it has a character to send and waits for a delay (see RS232 Timeout on 
page 2-27) for CTS to be asserted by the host.  If the delay time expires and 
CTS is not asserted, the device transmit buffer is cleared and scanning may 
resume.
CTS-Based Flow Control, No Timeout:  When the host asserts CTS, scan-
ning is enabled.  When CTS is not asserted, scanning is disabled.  
RTS On:  RTS only is on during transmission.  CTS is ignored.
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 milliseconds) for 
a timeout by scanning the bar code below, then setting the timeout (from 1-
65535 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the inside back cover, then scan-
ning Save.   Default = 1000.
XON/XOFF
Standard ASCII control characters can be used to tell the scanner to start send-
ing data (XON/XOFF On) or to stop sending data (XON/XOFF Off).  When the 
host sends the XOFF character (DC3, hex 13) to the scanner, data transmission 
stops.  To resume transmission, the host sends the XON character (DC1, hex 
11).  Data transmission continues where it left off when XOFF was sent.  Default 
= XON/XOFF Off.
ACK/NAK
After transmitting data, the scanner waits for an ACK character (hex 06) or a 
NAK character (hex 15) response from the host. If ACK is received, the commu-
nications cycle is completed and the scanner looks for more bar codes.  If NAK 
is received, the last set of bar code data is retransmitted and the scanner waits

for ACK/NAK again.  Turn on the ACK/NAK protocol by scanning the ACK/NAK 
On bar code below.  To turn off the protocol, scan ACK/NAK Off.  Default = 
ACK/NAK Off.
Scanner to Bioptic Communication
The following settings are used to set up communication between Honeywell 
scanners and bioptic scanners.  
Note: The scanner’s baud rate must be set to 38400 and the RS232 timeout 
must be set to 3000 in order to communicate with a bioptic scanner.  See 
RS232 Modifiers on page 2-22, and RS232 Timeouton page 2-27 for 
further information.
Scanner-Bioptic Packet Mode
Packet Mode On must be scanned to set the scanner’s format so it is compati-
ble with a bioptic scanner.  Default = Packet Mode Off.

Input/Output Settings
Good Read 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 read indication.  All 
error and menu beeps are still audible.  Default = On.
Beeper Volume – Good Read
The beeper volume codes modify the volume of the beep the scanner emits on 
a good read.  Default = High.
* On
 Off
*HighMedium
Off  Low

Beeper Pitch – Good Read
The beeper pitch codes modify the pitch (frequency) of the beep the scanner 
emits on a good read. Default = Medium
Beeper Duration – Good Read
The beeper duration codes modify the length of the beep the scanner emits on 
a good read.  Default = Normal.
Low (1600 Hz)
* Medium (2750 Hz)
High (4200 Hz)
* Normal Beep
Short Beep

Beeper Pitch – Error
The beeper pitch codes modify the pitch (frequency) of the sound the scanner 
emits when there is a bad read or error.  Default = 100 Hz.
LED – Good Read
The LED indicator can be programmed On or Off in response to a good read.  
Default = On.
Number of Beeps – Good Read
The number of beeps of a good read can be programmed from 1 - 9.  The same 
number of beeps will be applied to the beeper and LED in response to a good 
read.  For example, if you program this option to have five beeps, there will be 
five beeps and five LED flashes in response to a good read.  The beeps and

LED flashes are in sync with one another.  To change the number of beeps, 
scan the bar code below and then scan a digit (1-9) bar code and the Save bar 
code on the  inside the back cover of this manual.  Default = One.
Good Read Delay
This sets the minimum amount of time before the scanner can read another bar 
code.  Default = No Delay.
User-Specified Good Read Delay
If you want to set your own length for the good read delay, scan the bar code 
below, then set the delay (from 0-30,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from 
the inside back cover, then scanning Save.

Trigger Modes
Manual/Serial Trigger
You can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger, or using a serial trig-
ger command (see Trigger Commandson page 9-4).  When in manual trigger 
mode, the scanner scans until a bar code is read, or until the trigger is released.  
When in serial mode, the scanner scans until a bar code has been read or until 
the deactivate command is sent.  In serial mode, the scanner can also be set to 
turn itself off after a specified time has elapsed (see Read Time-Out, which fol-
lows). 
Read Time-Out
Use this selection to set a time-out (in milliseconds) of the scanner’s trigger 
when using serial commands to trigger the scanner.  Once the scanner has 
timed out, you can activate the scanner either by pressing the trigger or using a 
serial trigger command.  After scanning the Read Time-Out bar code, set the 
time-out duration (from 0-300,000 milliseconds) by scanning digits from the 
inside back cover, then scanning Save.   Default = 30,000.
Automatic Trigger
The scanner scans continuously using internal LEDs to detect bar codes.

Presentation Mode
Presentation Mode uses ambient light to detect bar codes.  The LEDs are off for 
ambient conditions until a change occurs in the scanner’s field of view.  Then 
the LEDS turn on automatically to read the code.  If the light level in the room is 
not high enough, Presentation Mode may not work properly.
Continuous Illumination Mode (Manual Trigger only)
If you have several bar codes that are close together, you may wish to have a 
continuous aiming beam on in order to properly aim the scanner at one bar 
code.  Scan the Continuous Illumination On bar code to program the scanner 
for this capability.  Once you have the aiming beam over the correct bar code, 
pull the trigger to read the code.  Scan the Continuous Illumination Off bar 
code to turn off this feature.  
Hands Free Time-Out
The Automatic Trigger and Presentation Modes are referred to as “hands free” 
modes.  If the scanner’s trigger is pulled when using a hands free mode, the 
scanner changes to manual trigger mode.  You can set the time the scanner 
should remain in manual trigger mode by setting the Hands Free Time-Out.  
Once the time-out value is reached, (if there have been no further trigger pulls) 
the scanner reverts to the original hands free mode.
