Chapter 3 System Settings

Introduction

There are three ways to configure the EM20: Barcode programming, command programming and Easyset programming.

Barcode Programming

The EM20 can be configured by scanning programming barcodes. All user programmable features/options are described along with their programming barcodes/commands in the following sections.

This programming method is most straightforward. However, it requires manually scanning barcodes. As a result, errors are more likely to occur.

Command Programming

The EM20 can also be configured by serial commands sent from the host device.

Users can design an application program to send those command strings to the engines to perform device configuration.

EasySet Programming

Besides the two methods mentioned above, you can conveniently perform engine configuration through EasySet too. EasySet is a Windows-based configuration tool particularly designed for Newland products, enabling users to gain access to decoded data and captured images and to configure engines. For more information about this tool, refer to the EasySet User Guide.

Programming Barcode/ Programming Command/Function

The figure above is an example that shows you the programming barcode and command for the Enter Setup function:

1. The No Case Conversion barcode.
2. The No Case Conversion command.
3. The description of feature/option.
4. ** indicates factory default settings.

Use of Programming Command

Besides the barcode programming method, the engine can also be configured by serial commands (HEX) sent from the host device. All commands must be entered in uppercase letters.

Command Syntax

Prefix StorageType Tag SubTag {Data} [, SubTag {Data}] [, Tag SubTag {Data}] [...] Suffix

Prefix: "\~0000" (HEX: 7E 01 30 30 30 30), 6 characters.

StorageType: “@” (HEX: 40) or “#” (HEX: 23), 1 character. “@” means permanent setting which will not be lost by removing power from the engine or rebooting it; “#” means temporary setting which will be lost by removing power from the engine or rebooting it.

Tag: A 3-character case-sensitive field that identifies the desired command group. For example, all USB HID Keyboard configuration settings are identified with a Tag of KBW.

SubTag: A 3-character case-sensitive field that identifies the desired parameter within the tag group. For example, the SubTag for the keyboard layout is CTY.

Data: The value for a feature or parameter setting, identified by the Tag and SubTag.

Suffix: “;” (HEX: 3B 03), 2 characters.

Multiple commands can be issued within one Prefix/Suffix sequence. For configuration commands, only the Tag, SubTag, and Data fields must be repeated for each command in sequence. If an additional command is to be applied to the same Tag, then the command is separated with a comma (,) and only the SubTag and Data fields of the additional commands are issued. If the additional command requires a different Tag field, the command is separated from previous command by a semicolon (;).

Query Commands

For query commands, the entry in the Data field in the syntax above is one of the following characters means:

* (HEX: 2A) What is the engine's current value for the setting(s).

& (HEX: 26) What is the factory default value for the setting(s).

^ (HEX: 5E) What is the range of possible values for the setting(s).

The value of the StoreType field in a query command can be either "@" (HEX: 40) or "#" (HEX: 23).

A query command with the SubTag field omitted means to query all the settings concerning a tag. For example, to query all the current settings about Code 11, you should enter 7E 01 30 30 30 30 40 43 31 31 2A 3B 03 (i.e. \~0000@C11*;).

Responses

Different from command sequence, the prefix of a response consists of the six characters of "0000" (HEX: 02 01 30 30 30 30).

The engine responds to serial commands with one of the following three responses:

(HEX: 06) Indicates a good command which has been processed.

(HEX: 15) Indicates a good configuration command with its Data field entry out of the allowable range for this Tag and SubTag combination (e.g. an entry for an inter-keystroke delay of 100 when the field will only allow 2 digits), or an invalid query command.

(HEX: 05) Indicates an invalid Tag or SubTag command.

When responding, the engine echoes back the command sequence with the status character above inserted directly before each of the punctuation marks (the comma or semicolon) in the command.

Examples

Example 1: Enable Code 11, set the minimum and maximum lengths to 12 and 22 respectively.

Enter: 7E 01 30 30 30 30 40 43 31 31 45 4E 41 31 2C 4D 49 4E 31 32 2C 4D 41 58 32 32 3B 03 (\~0000@C11ENA1,MIN12,MAX22;)

Response: 02 01 30 30 30 30 40 43 31 31 45 4E 41 31 06 2C 4D 49 4E 31 32 06 2C 4D 41 58 32 32 06 3B 03 (0000@C11ENA1,MIN12,MAX22;)

Example 2: Query the current minimum and maximum lengths of Code 11.

Enter: 7E 01 30 30 30 30 40 43 31 31 4D 49 4E 2A 2C 4D 41 58 2A 3B 03 (\~0000@C11MIN*,MAX*;)

Response: 02 01 30 30 30 30 40 43 31 31 4D 49 4E 31 32 06 2C 4D 41 58 32 32 06 3B 03 (0000@C11MIN12,MAX22;)

Use 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.

Scan 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. Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) can avoid undesired rereading of same barcode in a given period of time. Sensitivity can change the Sense Mode's sensibility to changes in images captured. Image Stabilization Timeout gives the engine time to adapt to ambient environment after it decodes a barcode and "looks" for another.
Continuous Mode: The engine automatically starts one decode session after another. To suspend/resume barcode reading, simply press the trigger. Timeout between Decodes (Same Barcode) can avoid undesired rereading of same barcode in a given period of time.
✿ 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).

Decode Area

Whole Area Decoding: The engine attempts to decode barcode(s) within its field of view, from the center to the periphery, and transmits the barcode that has been first decoded.
Specific Area Decoding: The engine attempts to read barcode(s) within a specified decoding area and transmits the barcode that has been first decoded. This option allows the engine to narrow its field of view to make sure it reads only those barcodes intended by the user. For instance, if multiple barcodes are placed closely together, specific area decoding in conjunction with appropriate pre-defined decoding area will insure that only the desired barcode is read.

@CADENA0

Chapter 4 RS-232 Interface

Introduction

Serial communication interface is usually used when connecting the engine to a host device (like PC, POS). However, to ensure smooth communication and accuracy of data, you need to set communication parameters (including baud rate, parity check, data bit and stop bit) to match the host device.

The serial communication interface provided by the engine is based on TTL-level signals. TTL-232 can be used for most application architectures. For those requiring RS-232, an external conversion circuit is needed.

RS-232

The FPC connector on the engine can be used as serial interface or USB interface. If you want to convert your engine already preset by manufacturer to interface with USB host to support serial communications, you should first complete the conversion by following the instructions described in the "Convert to Serial" section in Chapter 9.

Baud Rate

Baud rate is the number of bits of data transmitted per second. Set the baud rate to match the host requirements.

Parity Check

Set the parity type to match the host requirements.

Odd Parity: If the data contains an odd number of 1 bits, the parity bit value is set to 0.
Even Parity: If the data contains an even number of 1 bits, the parity bit value is set to 0.
None: Select this option when no parity bit is required.

@232DAT0
** 8 Data Bits

Stop Bit

The stop bit(s) at the end of each transmitted character marks the end of transmission of one character and prepares the receiving device for the next character in the serial data stream. Set the number of stop bits to match the host requirements.

@232STP0
** 1 Stop Bit

@232STP1
2 Stop Bits

Hardware Auto Flow Control

If this feature is enabled, the engine determines whether to transmit data based on CTS signal level. When CTS signal is at a low level which means the serial port's cache memory of receiving device (such as PC) is full, the engine sends data through RS-232 port until CTS signal is set to high level by receiving device. When the engine is not ready for receiving, it will set RTS signal to low level. When sending device (such as PC) detects it, it will not send data to the engine any more to prevent data loss.

If this feature is disabled, reception/transmission of serial data will not be influenced by RTS/CTS signal.

@232AFL0

** Disable Hardware Auto Flow Control

@232AFL1

Enable Hardware Auto Flow Control

Before enabling this feature, make sure that RTS/CTS signal lines are contained in serial cable. Without the signal lines, serial communication errors will occur.

Chapter 5 USB Interface

Introduction

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.
HID POS (POS HID Barcode Scanner): It is based on the HID interface, with no need for a custom driver. It excels virtual keyboard and traditional RS-232 interface in transmission speed.
IBM SurePOS: It conforms to IBM (now Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions) 4698 USB scanner interface specifications.

When the engine is connected to both USB and RS-232 ports on a host device, it will select the USB connection by default.

The FPC connector on the engine can be used as serial interface or USB interface. If you want to convert your engine already preset by manufacturer to interface with serial host to support USB communications, you should first complete the conversion by following the instructions in the "Convert to USB CDC" section in Chapter 9.

USB HID Keyboard

When the engine is connected to the USB port on a host device, you can enable the USB HID Keyboard feature by scanning the barcode below. Then engine's transmission will be simulated as USB keyboard input. The Host receives keystrokes on the virtual keyboard. It works on a Plug and Play basis and no driver is required.

@INTERF3
USB HID Keyboard

If the host device allows keyboard input, then no extra software is needed for HID Keyboard input.

USB Country Keyboard Types

Keyboard layouts vary from country to country. The default setting is U.S. keyboard.

@KBWBUC0

** Do Not Beep on Unknown Character

@KBWBUC1

Beep on Unknown Character

Supposing French keyboard (Country Code: 7) is selected and barcode data "ADF" is being dealted with, the keyboard will fail to locate the "D" (0xD0) character and the engine will ignore the character and continue to process the next one.

Do Not Beep on Unknown Character: The engine does not beep and the Host receives "AF".

Beep on Unknown Character: The engine beeps and the Host still receives "AF".

If Emulate ALT+Keypad ON is selected, Beep on Unknown Character does not function.

Emulate ALT+Keypad

When Emulate ALT+Keypad is turned on, ASCII characters (0x20 - 0xFF) are sent over the numeric keypad no matter which keyboard type is selected.

1. ALT Make
2. Enter the number corresponding to a desired character on the keypad.

Code Page

Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If the data received does not display with the proper characters, it may be because the barcode being scanned was created using a code page that is different from the one the host program is expecting. If this is the case, select the code page with which the barcodes were created by scanning the appropriate barcode below. For PDF417, QR Code, Aztec and Data Matrix, besides setting the code page, you also need to set the character encoding in the "Character Encoding" section in Chapter 6.

Supposing the Emulate Numeric Keypad 1 feature is enabled:

if Num Lock on the host device is ON, "A4.5" is transmitted as "A4.5";

if Num Lock on the host device is OFF, "A4.5" is transmitted as ".A":

1. "A" is sent on main keyboard;
2. "4" is sent as the function key "Cursor Move to Left";
3. “.” is sent on main keyboard;
4. "5" is not sent as it does not correspond to any function key.

Fast Mode

When Fast Mode On is selected, the engine sends characters to the Host faster. If the Host drops characters, turn the Fast Mode off or change the polling rate to a bigger value.

HID POS (POS HID Barcode Scanner)

Introduction

The HID-POS interface is recommended for new application programs. It can send up to 56 characters in a single USB report and appears more efficient than keyboard emulation.

Features:

◇ HID based, no custom driver required.
◇ Way more efficient in communication than keyboard emulation and traditional RS-232 interface.

@INTERF5
USB HID-POS

Access the Engine with Your Program

Use CreateFile to access the engine as a HID device and then use ReadFile to deliver the scanned data to the application program. Use WriteFile to send data to the engine.

For detailed information about USB and HID interfaces, go to www.USB.org.

Acquire Scanned Data

After a barcode is decoded, the engine sends an input report as below:

	Bit
Byte	7	6	5	4	3	2	1	0
0	Report ID = 0x02
1	Barcode Length
2-57	Decoded Data (1-56)
58-61	Reserved
62	Newland Symbology Identifier or N/C: 0x00
63	-	-	-	-	-	-	-	Decoded data continued

Send Command to the Engine

This output report is used to send commands to the engine. All programming commands can be used.

Set Length Range for Codabar

The engine can be configured to only decode Codabar barcodes with lengths that fall between (inclusive) the minimum and maximum lengths. To accomplish it, you need to set the minimum and maximum lengths.

Set the Minimum Length (Default: 2)

Set the Maximum Length (Default: 60)

If minimum length is set to be greater than maximum length, the engine only decodes Codabar barcodes with either the minimum or maximum length. If minimum length is same as maximum length, only Codabar barcodes with that length are to be decoded.

Set the engine to decode Codabar barcodes containing between 8 and 12 characters:

1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode.
2. Scan the Set the Minimum Length barcode.
3. Scan the numeric barcode "8" from the "Digit Barcodes" section in Appendix.
4. Scan the Save barcode from the "Save/Cancel Barcodes" section in Appendix.
5. Scan the Set the Maximum Length barcode.
6. Scan the numeric barcodes "1" and "2" from the "Digit Barcodes" section in Appendix.
7. Scan the Save barcode from the "Save/Cancel Barcodes" section in Appendix.
8. Scan the Exit Setup barcode.

Check Character Verification

A check character is optional for Codabar and can be added as the last character. It is a calculated value used to verify the integrity of the data.

✿ Disable: The engine transmits Codabar barcodes as is.
Do Not Transmit Check Character After Verification: The engine checks the integrity of all Codabar barcodes to verify that the data complies with the check character algorithm. Barcodes passing the check will be transmitted except the last digit, whereas those failing it will not be transmitted.

Chapter 7 Data Formatter

Introduction

You may use the Data Formatter to modify the engine's output. For example, you can use the Data Formatter to insert characters at certain points in barcode data or to suppress/replace/send certain characters in barcode data as it is scanned. Normally, when you scan a barcode, it gets outputted automatically; however, when you create a format, you must use a "send" command (see the "Send Commands" section in this chapter) within the format programming to output data. Multiple data formats can be programmed into the engine. The maximum size of all data formats created is 2048 characters. By default, the data formatter is disabled. Enable it when required. If you have changed data format settings, and wish to clear all formats and return to the factory defaults, scan the Default Data Format code below.

@DFMDEF
Default Data Format

Add a Data Format

Data format is used to edit barcode data. When you create a data format, you must select one of the four labels (Format_0, Format_1, Format_2 and Format_3) for your data format, specify the application scope of data format (such as barcode type and data length) and include formatter commands. Multiple data formats may be created using the same label. When scanned data does not match your data format requirements, you will hear the non-match error beep (if the non-match error beep is ON).

There are two methods to program a data format: Programming with barcodes and programming with serial commands.

Programming with Barcodes

The following explains how to program a data format by scanning the specific barcodes. Scanning any irrelevant barcode or failing to follow the setting procedure will result in programming failure. To find the alphanumeric barcodes needed to create a data format, see the "Digit Barcodes" section in Appendix.

Step 1: Scan the Enter Setup barcode.

Step 2: Scan the Add Data Format barcode.

Add Data Format

Step 3: Select a label (Format_0 or Format_1 or Format_2 or Format_3).

Scan a numeric barcode 0 or 1 or 2 or 3 to label this data format Format_0 or Format_1 or Format_2 or Format_3.

Step 4: Select formatter command type.

Specify what type of formatter commands will be used. Scan a numeric barcode "6" to select formatter command type 6. (See the "Formatter Command Type 6" section in this chapter for more information)

Step 5: Set interface type

Scan 999 for any interface type.

Step 6: Set Symbology ID Number

Refer to the "Symbology ID Number" section in Appendix and find the ID number of the symbology to which you want to apply the data format. Scan three numeric barcodes for the symbology ID number. If you wish to create a data format for all symbologies, scan 999.

Step 7: Set barcode data length

Specify what length of data will be acceptable for this symbology. Scan the four numeric barcodes that represent the data length. 9999 is a universal number, indicating all lengths. For example, 32 characters should be entered as 0032.

Step 8: Enter formatter command

Refer to the "Formatter Command Type 6" section in this chapter. Scan the alphanumeric barcodes that represent the command you need to edit data. For example, when a command is F141, you should scan F141.

Step 9: Scan the Save barcode from the "Save/Cancel Barcodes" section in Appendix to save your data format.

Example: Program a Format_0 data format using formatter command type 6, Code 128 containing 10 characters applicable, send all characters followed by "A".

1. Scan the Enter Setup barcode Enter the Setup mode
2. Scan the Add Data Format barcode Add a data format
3. Scan the 0 barcode Select Format_0 as the label
4. Scan the 6 barcode Select formatter command type 6
5. Scan the 9 barcode three times All interface types applicable
6. Scan the barcodes 002 Only Code 128 applicable
7. Scan the barcodes 0010 Only a length of 10 characters applicable
8. Scan the alphanumeric barcodes F141 Send all characters followed by "A" (HEX: 41)
9. Scan the Save barcode Save the data format

To streamline the programming process, you may as well generate a batch barcode by inputting the command (e.g. @DFMADD069990020010F141;) used to create a data format. See the "Use Batch Barcode" section in Chapter 9 to learn how to put a batch barcode into use.

When creating multiple data formats sharing a label, the formats are separated from each other by a vertical bar (|) in the batch command, e.g. @DFMADD069990029999F141|069990039999F142|169990049999F143;

Programming with Serial Commands

A data format can also be created by serial commands (HEX) sent from the host device. All commands must be entered in uppercase letters.

The syntax consists of the following elements:

Prefix: "\~0000" (HEX: 7E 01 30 30 30 30), 6 characters.

Storage type: "@" (HEX: 40) or "#" (HEX: 23), 1 character. "@" means permanent setting which will not be lost by removing power from the engine or rebooting it; "#" means temporary setting which will be lost by removing power from the engine or rebooting it.

Add Data Format Command: "DFMADD" (HEX: 44 46 4D 41 44 44), 6 character.

Data format label: "0" (HEX: 30) or "1" (HEX: 31) or "2" (HEX: 32) or "3" (HEX: 33), 1 character. "0", "1", "2" and "3" represent Format_0, Format_1, Format_2 and Format_3 respectively.

Formatter command type: "6" (HEX: 36), 1 character.

Interface type: "999" (HEX: 39 39 39), 3 characters.

Symbology ID Number: The ID number of the symbology to which you want to apply the data format, 3 characters. 999 indicates all symbologies.

Data length: The length of data that will be acceptable for this symbology, 4 characters. 9999 indicates all lengths. For example, 32 characters should be entered as 0032.

Formatter commands: The command string used to edit data. For more information, see the "Formatter Command Type 6" section in this chapter.

Suffix: “;” (HEX: 3B 03), 2 characters.

Example: Program a Format_0 data format using formatter command type 6, Code 128 containing 10 characters applicable, send all characters followed by "A".

Enter: 7E 01 30 30 30 30 40 44 46 4D 41 44 44 30 36 39 39 39 30 30 33 39 39 39 39 46 31 34 31 3B 03

(\~0000@DFMADD069990020010F141;)

Response: 02 01 30 30 30 30 40 44 46 4D 41 44 44 30 36 39 39 39 30 30 33 39 39 39 39 46 31 34 31 06 3B 03

(0000@DFMADD069990020010F141;)

When creating multiple data formats sharing a label, the formats are separated from each other by a vertical bar (|) in the serial command.

Example: \~0000@DFMADD069990020010F141|069990039999F142|069990049999F143;

Enable/Disable Data Formatter

When Data Formatter is disabled, the data format you have enabled becomes invalid.

** Disable Data Formatter

You may wish to require the data to conform to a data format you have created. The following settings can be applied to your data format:

Enable Data Formatter, Required, Keep Prefix/Suffix: Scanned data that meets your data format requirements is modified accordingly and gets outputted along with prefixes and suffixes (if prefix and suffix are enabled). Any data that does not match your data format requirements generates an error beep (if Non-Match Error Beep is turned ON) and the data in that barcode is not transmitted.

Enable Data Formatter, Required, Drop Prefix/Suffix: Scanned data that meets your data format requirements is modified accordingly and gets outputted without prefixes and suffixes (even if prefix and suffix are enabled). Any data that does not match your data format requirements generates an error beep (if Non-Match Error Beep is turned ON) and the data in that barcode is not transmitted.

Enable Data Formatter, Not Required, Keep Prefix/Suffix: Scanned data that meets your data format requirements is modified accordingly and gets outputted along with prefixes and suffixes (if prefix and suffix are enabled). Barcode data that does not match your data format requirements is transmitted as read along with prefixes and suffixes (if prefix and suffix are enabled).

Enable Data Formatter, Not Required, Drop Prefix/Suffix: Scanned data that meets your data format requirements is modified accordingly and gets outputted without prefixes and suffixes (even if prefix and suffix are enabled). Barcode data that does not match your data format requirements is transmitted as read along with prefixes and suffixes (if prefix and suffix are enabled).

Note: Key modifiers can be added together when needed. Example: Shift Left + Alt Left + Control Left = 15.

Chapter 8 Prefix & Suffix

Introduction

A 1D barcode could contain digits, letters, symbols, etc. A 2D barcode could contain more data, such as Chinese characters and other multi-byte characters. However, in real applications, they do not and should not have all information we need, such as barcode type, data acquisition time and delimiter, in order to keep the barcodes short and flexible.

Prefix and suffix are how to fulfill the needs mentioned above. They can be added, removed and modified while the original barcode data remains intact.

Barcode processing procedure:

1. Edit data with Data Formatter
2. Append prefix/suffix
3. Pack data
4. Append terminating character

Global Settings

Enable/Disable All Prefixes/Suffixes

Disable All Prefixes/Suffixes: Transmit barcode data with no prefix/suffix.

Enable All Prefixes/Suffixes: Allow to append Code ID prefix, AIM ID prefix, custom prefix/suffix and terminating character to the barcode data before the transmission.

Chapter 9 Batch Programming

Introduction

Batch programming enables users to integrate a batch of commands into a single batch barcode.

Listed below are batch programming rules:

1. Command format: Command + Parameter Value.
2. Each command is terminated by a semicolon (;). Note that there is no space between a command and its terminator semicolon.
3. Use the barcode generator software to generate a 2D batch barcode.

Example: Create a batch barcode for Illumination Always On, Sense Mode, Decode Session Timeout = 2s:

1. Input the commands:
   @ILLSCN2;SCNMOD2;ORTSET2000;

2. Generate a batch barcode.

When setting up a engine with the above configuration, scan the Enable Batch Barcode barcode and then the batch barcode generated.

@BATCHS
Enable Batch Barcode

Create a Batch Command

A batch command may contain a number of individual commands each of which is terminated by a semicolon (;).

For more information, refer to the "Use of Programming Command" section in Chapter 3.

Create a Batch Barcode

Batch barcodes can be produced in the format of PDF417, QR Code or Data Matrix.

Example: Create a batch barcode for Illumination Always On, Sense Mode, Decode Session Timeout = 2s:

1. Input the following commands:

@ILLSCN2;SCNMOD2;ORTSET2000;

1. Generate a PDF417 batch barcode.

Save/Cancel Barcodes

After reading numeric barcode(s), you need to scan the Save barcode to save the data. If you scan the wrong digit(s), you can either scan the Cancel barcode and then start the configuration all over again, or scan the Delete the Last Digit barcode and then the correct digit, or scan the Delete All Digits barcode and then the digits you want.

For instance, after reading the Maximum Length barcode and numeric barcodes "1", "2" and "3", you scan:

Delete the Last Digit: The last digit "3" will be removed.
Delete All Digits: All digits "123" will be removed.
✿ Cancel: The maximum length configuration will be cancelled. And the engine is still in the setup mode.
