Programming Codes
Below are some suggestion you need to bear in mind while scanning labels:
1. The barcode labels shown in bold and black are default factory
settings.
2. Please cover the unwanted codes for scanning the specific barcode
required for the programming to prevent confusion in code scanning.
3. Use the user manual downloaded from our global website for advanced
programming.
4. While scanning the setup barcode labels provided in the quick guide, you
need to pull the trigger to initiate the decoding process.

USB of Programming Barcodes
Scanning the Enter Setup barcode can enable the engine to enter the setup
mode. Then you can scan a number of programming barcodes to configure
your engine. To exit the setup mode, scan the Exit Setup barcode or a non-
programming barcode, or reboot the engine.

Exit Setup
USB Interface
There are four options for USB connection:
USB HID Keyboard: The engine’s transmission is simulated as USB
keyboard input with no need for command configuration or a driver.
Barcode data could be entered by the virtual keyboard directly and it is
also convenient for the host device to receive data.
USB CDC: It is compliant with the standard USB CDC class
specifications defined by the USB-IF and allows the host device to
receive data in the way as a serial port does. A driver is needed when
using this feature.

Before setting, please scan the Enter Setup barcode on P.3.
After setting, please scan the Exit Setup barcode on P.3.

Trigger Mode
Level Mode: A trigger pull activates a decode session. The decode
session continues until a barcode is decoded or you release the trigger.
Sense Mode: The engine activates a decode session every time it detects
a barcode presented to it. The decode session continues until a barcode is
decoded or the decode session timeout expires.
Continuous Mode: The engine automatically starts one decode session
after another. To suspend/resume barcode reading, simply press the
trigger. Note that when switching to this mode by scanning the
Continuous Mode barcode, the engine will stop barcode reading for 3
seconds before starting scanning continuously.
Pulse Mode: When the trigger is pulled and released, scanning is
activated until a barcode is decoded or the decode session timeout
expires (The decode session timeout begins when the trigger is released).
Batch Mode: A trigger pull activates a round of multiple decode sessions.
This round of multiple scans continues until you release the trigger.
Rereading the same barcode is not allowed in the same round.
Before setting, please scan the Enter Setup barcode on P.3.
After setting, please scan the Exit Setup barcode on P.3.

Illumination
A couple of illumination options are provided to improve the lighting
conditions during every image capture:
Normal
Illumination LEDs on the engine are turned on during image capture.
Always On
Illumination LEDs on the engine keep on after the engine is powered
on.
Off
Illumination LEDs on the engine are off all the time.
Before setting, please scan the Enter Setup barcode on P.3.

Aiming
When scanning/capturing image, the engine projects an aiming pattern which
allows positioning the target barcode whining its field of view and thus makes
decoding easier.
Normal
The engine projects an aiming pattern only during barcode
scanning/capturing.
Always On
Aiming pattern is constantly on after the engine is powered on.
Off
Aiming pattern is off all the time.
Before setting, please scan the Enter Setup barcode on P.3.
After setting, please scan the Exit Setup barcode on P.3.
