Frequently Asked Questions - MS146-IUCB0M-SG Unitech

Why does the scanner not output any data even though it beeps?

Ensure the correct Computer Type (Group 1) is set. Unplug and replug the cable, then scan the exact computer type. Also check that the interface selection (Keyboard, RS-232, USB) matches the cable type.

What should I do if the scanner does not scan when I press the trigger?

Check the Reading Mode setting. In Trigger Mode, the trigger must be pressed. Also verify the Interface Selection matches the cable. Reset to default if needed.

The scanner beeps three times at every scan. What does this mean?

Three beeps indicate an incomplete setting procedure. Some parameters (e.g., Preamble/Postamble, Accuracy Adjustment, Min/Max Length) require a three-step scan. Scan RESET and repeat the setup correctly.

How do I connect the scanner via Bluetooth to my computer?

Scan DISCONNECT first, then scan the appropriate BT mode barcode (e.g., BT mode - HID or BT mode - SPP). The scanner will emit 8 beeps. On your computer, select 'Wireless Scanner' from the Bluetooth device list and follow pairing instructions.

Why is the scanner not reading some barcodes?

Ensure the specific symbology is Enabled (Groups 15-32). Also check Min/Max Length settings; the barcode length must fall within the allowed range. Poor print quality or color contrast may also cause reading issues.

How can I reset the scanner to factory defaults?

Scan the DEFAULT barcode under Group 1. The scanner will beep twice to confirm. Note: Default values are indicated in bold/underline in the manual.

What is Cloning Mode and how do I use it?

Cloning Mode copies settings from one scanner to others. First, configure a reference scanner, then scan CLONING MODE ON-PC/AT. The scanner will display alphanumeric strings. Print these as Code 39 barcodes and scan them sequentially on target scanners.

How do I change the cable on the scanner?

Insert a pin or paper clip into the small hole at the base of the scanner to release the cable. Pull out the old cable and insert the new one. After changing, set the correct Interface Selection (Group 1) for the new cable.

The scanner emits a laser but does not read. What could be wrong?

Check if Auto-Sensing Mode is enabled with a long Deactivation Time. The laser may turn off too quickly. Also verify the barcode is within the scanning window and not damaged.

How do I clean and maintain the scanner?

Clean the scanner window with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Avoid exposing the scanner to extreme temperatures or moisture. For battery-powered models, avoid deep discharge; charge regularly.

CLONING MODE

WHAT IS CLONING MODE?

CLONING duplicates a scanners settings in other scanners. It can save time when a number of scanners must be programmed to the same settings.

HOW SHOULD CLONING WORK?

1. Using this guide, make all the necessary settings for one wand.
2. Scan the CLONING MODE bar code shown below.
3. When CLONING MODE is scanned, all setup parameters will be converted to alphanumeric characters and shown on the monitor.
4. Using a bar code printer, print out all the setup parameters as Code 39 bar code labels.
5. Scan the printed labels sequentially with each wand to be programmed.

CLONING MODE
Figure 1

CLONING MODE ON-PC/AT

.A018\$(Cloning Mode on PC/AT) - you can clone the settings to a PC/AT regardless of the kind of device chosen on the scanner.

NOTES:

1. All cloning strings are upper case.
2. All cloning strings printed on labels should be the same as those on the monitor sequentially from first to last.
3. Cloning mode works in Word Note Pad only.
4. Never edit the data on the first row (.A017\$). It is an entry command for cloning.
5. The cloning string's length can be adjusted by combining multiple strings into one, or by breaking one string into multiple strings starting from the second row after “...”. Length must be in sequences of four, such as 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 (MAX).
6. Be sure to print the dots exactly where they are shown on the monitor.

FORMAT OF CLONING

* Format of Cloning:

1st row >>> “.A017\$” ( never edit any data of the first row ) 2nd row >>> “....XXXX” you can adjust the String’s Length starting from the dots “...” forward. The length of the string should be in 4, 8, 12, 16 or 20 ( MAX )digits.

3rd row \~ so on >>> XXXX End row - A dot "." Is the ending of cloning.

XXXX Stands for any string

EXAMPLE :

1. PROJECT ASSIGNMENTS:

1.1. Beep tone: BEEP LOW -- HIGH.
1.2. Capslock Mode: CAPSLOCK ON.
1.3. Reading Mode: CONTINUOUS AUTO OFF.

2. SETTING PROCEDURE:

2.1. Scan BEEP LOW -- HIGH (GROUP 3).
2.2. Scan CAPSLOCK ON (GROUP 11).
2.3. Scan CONTINUOUS AUTO OFF (GROUP2).

1. All parameters will be converted to alphanumeric characters and shown on the monitor.

1. Print the results shown on the monitor as bar codes with a bar code printer. The bar codes should be in the Code 39 symbology.

1. Scan these labels with any of the wands that must be programmed with the same settings as the first wand. Be sure to scan from the first row to the second and so on sequentially, top to bottom.

Our Barcode Scanners are simple to install and use.

Most operational issues can be attributed to:

INCORRECT INTERFACE CONNECTION INCORRECT CONFIGURATION SETUP POOR BARCODE QUALITY

GENERAL PROCEDURES

1. First, make sure the scanner is firmly connected to the host computer, when attached correctly, the scanner will emit one long beep. When the trigger is pressed, LED will flash.
2. Once the power is on, try scanning some sample bar codes from this user's guide. The scanner should beep and the LED should flash to indicate a good read in the default configuration. If reading the bar code does not result in a good read, there may have been a problem with the scanning technique or the interface configuration setting. Reset the scanner to default.
3. If the scanner indicates a good read, but there is no output of data to the monitor, please check the cabling connection.

KEYBOARD INTERFACES PROBLEMS

In general, the Keyboard Wedge interface is trouble free, but there is still something to check in the event of a problem:

Do you have the correct cable?

Most computers use an XT/AT-compatible keyboard. Be sure you have the proper cable for your computer.

Does the keyboard work?

Since the keyed-in data from keyboard must pass through the decoder, the cabling connections are correct if the keyboard is functioning.

Can your computer accept the data fast enough?

Your computer's BIOS has a feature related to keyboard typing speed. Try to set the Intercharacter Delay feature to stimulate the keystroke entry speed.

Does keyboard port supply enough power?

Most notebook computers do not supply enough power to the scanner. The symptom of insufficient power is a lower “good read” rate (since there is not enough power to properly support the scanning operation).

Is the proper symbology enabled?

Each bar code symbology can be individually enabled or disabled. It is suggested that you enable only those that you will be scanning, thereby eliminating the possibility of mis reads from the scanning of other symbologies.

Does the selected bar code symbology configuration match the bar code(s) being read?

Scanned data from each bar code symbology can be restricted to eliminate the scanning of unused symbologies.

The restrictions are individually set for each symbology.

POOR BAR CODE QUALITY

The third problem area has nothing to do with the scanner, but rather the printed quality of the bar code and/or the scanning technique employed.

TOLERANCE OF BAR CODE

A bar code may have a tolerance. Normally, the tolerances are caused by bar code font software or a printer. Software with a proven reputation should be chosen to generate bar codes. If the printed bar codes are distorted, the scanner might not recognize them.

It is very difficult to get a good read from a poor quality bar code unless it is scanned many times. As the quality of the symbology drops, the chances for undetected error increase. A bar code Check Digit Verification (CDV) should be used to check the quality of the suspect bar codes.

LABELS (PAPER & COLOR & PRINTER)

The light source of a bar code scanner is generally red, so there are some restrictions for the printing of labels. Care should be taken when choosing materials, especially color inks and papers. Sometimes the combination of the label color and the color of the ink can, in effect, blind the scanner. Media with a shiny surface will also cause reading difficulties for scanners.

Moreover, poor printing quality can also result in reading difficulties for the scanner. Bad printing may be caused by the type of printer used; dot matrix and inkjet printers will not procedure high quality bar codes. Also check to make sure the ink, ribbon, or toner in good supply.

Is the proper symbology enabled?

Each bar code symbology can be individually enabled or disabled. It is suggested that you enable only those that you will be scanning, thereby eliminating the possibility of mis reads from the scanning of other symbologies.

Does the selected bar code symbology configuration match the bar code(s) being read?

Scanned data from each bar code symbology can be restricted to eliminate the scanning of unused symbologies.

The restrictions are individually set for each symbology.

A bar code may have a tolerance. Normally, the tolerances are caused by bar code font software or a printer. Software with a proven reputation should be chosen to generate bar codes. If the printed bar codes are distorted, the scanner might not recognize them.

It is very difficult to get a good read from a poor quality bar code unless it is scanned many times. As the quality of the symbology drops, the chances for undetected error increase. A bar code Check Digit Verification (CDV) should be used to check the quality of the suspect bar codes.

LABELS (PAPER & COLOR & PRINTER)

The light source of a bar code scanner is generally red, so there are some restrictions for the printing of labels. Care should be taken when choosing materials, especially color inks and papers. Sometimes the combination of the label color and the color of the ink can, in effect, blind the scanner. Media with a shiny surface will also cause reading difficulties for scanners.

Moreover, poor printing quality can also result in reading difficulties for the scanner. Bad printing may be caused by the type of printer used; dot matrix and inkjet printers will not procedure high quality bar codes. Also check to make sure the ink, ribbon, or toner in good supply.
