About This Manual
This User’s Guide provides installation and programming instructions for the 
Hyperion 1300g.  Product specifications, dimensions, warranty, and customer 
support information are also included.
Honeywell bar code scanners are factory programmed for the most common 
terminal and communications settings.  If you need to change these settings, 
programming is accomplished by scanning the bar codes in this guide.
An asterisk (*) next to an option indicates the...

3. Verify the scanner operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample 
Symbols in the back of this manual.
For additional USB programming and technical information, refer to the Honey-
well “USB Application Note,” available at www.honeywellaidc.com.
Connecting with Keyboard Wedge
A scanner can be connected between the keyboard and PC as a “keyboard 
wedge,” where the scanner provides data output that is similar to keyboard 
entries.  The following is an example of a keyboard wedge connection:

Connecting with RS-232 Serial Port
1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer.
2. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the scanner.
3. Plug the serial connector into the serial port on your computer.  Tighten the 
two screws to secure the connector to the port.
4. Once the scanner has been completely connected, power up the computer. 
5. This interface programs 38,400 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.

1. Connect the appropriate interface cable to the device, then to the computer.
2. Turn the terminal/computer power back on.  The scanner beeps.
3. Verify the scanner operation by scanning a bar code from the Sample 
Symbols in the back of this manual.  The scanner beeps once.
4. For further RS485 settings, refer to RS485on page 2-2.
Reading Techniques
The scanner has a bright red aiming beam that corresponds to its horizontal 
field of view.  The aiming beam should be centered horizontally over...

The best focus point for reading most code densities is about 5 inches (12.7 cm) 
from the unit.  To read a single bar code or multiple bar codes (on a page or on 
an object), hold the scanner at an appropriate distance from the target, pull the 
trigger, and center the aiming beam on the bar code.
Menu Bar Code Security Settings
Honeywell scanners are programmed by scanning menu bar codes or by send-
ing serial commands to the scanner.  If you want to restrict the ability to scan 
menu codes, you...

The Serial Programming Commands starting on page 9-1 lists the factory 
default settings for each of the commands (indicated by an asterisk (*) on the 
programming pages).

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 key-
board wedge interface with a USA keyboard, scan the bar code...

RS232 Serial Port
The RS232 Interface bar code is used when connecting to the serial port of a 
PC or terminal.  The following RS232 Interface bar code also programs a car-
riage return (CR) and a line feed (LF) suffix, baud rate, and data format as indi-
cated 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 your scanner for OPOS (OLE for Retail Point 
of Sale) by modifying the following OPOS-related settings:

USB IBM SurePos
Scan the following “Plug and Play” codes to program the scanner for an IBM 
SurePos (USB handheld scanner) interface.
Note: After scanning the code below, you must power cycle the cash register.
