 INTRODUCTION

1 INTRODUCTION

The DelfiScan family provides a valuable solution for users seeking an affordable handheld
device without compromise in performance.
The extensive range of models and options of this family can easily meet any specific
challenges required by retail, and commercial data collections applications.
The DelfiScan M80 is the ideal solution for retail and commercial environments where
continuous and multi-tasking activities are keys to optimum productivity, lower cost of
ownership and profitable business.

1.1 READING ANGLE

DelfiScan M80 readers automatically scan barcodes at a distance. Simply aim and pull the
trigger. Code scanning is performed along the center of the light bar emitted from the
reading window. This bar must cover the entire code.

Successful scanning is obtained by tilting the reader with respect to the barcode to avoid
direct reflections, which could impair the reading performance. See the figures below.
Successful reading is obtained by an audible tone.

3.4 USB READER CONFIGURATION

The USB interface is compatible with:

Windows 98 (and later) IBM POS for Windows

Mac OS 8.0 (and later) 4690 Operating System

USB Start-up

As with all USB devices, upon connection, the Host performs several checks by
communicating with the DelfiScan M80. During this phase the yellow LED on the DelfiScan
M80 reader blinks and normal operations are suspended. Two basic conditions must be
met before the DelfiScan M80 is ready to read codes, the correct USB driver must be
loaded and sufficient power must be supplied to the reader.
Firs t Start- Up
For all systems, the correct USB driver for the default USB-
KBD interface is included in the Host Operating System Connec t DelfiScan
and will either be loaded automatically or will be M80 to Host
suggested by the O.S. and should therefore be selected
from the dialog box (the first time only). Y ell ow LED blinks
Load dr iver s
Normally the Host supplies sufficient power to the (if requested)
reader, the start-up phase ends correctly, the yellow LED
Yellow LED o ff –
stops blinking.
BEEP OK

In rare cases, if the Host does not supply sufficient power Select desir ed USB
to the reader, a dialog box will appear on the Host and int er fac e code
the reader will be blocked (yellow LED continues (USB-KBD is def ault)
blinking). In this case, disconnect the USB device cable at
the Host (yellow LED stops blinking); and then try a Load dr iver s
different USB port as indicated by the Operating System (if r equested)
message. You can now read codes.
Read test c od es.
At this point you can read the USB interface Reader is READY
configuration code according to your application. Load
drivers from the O.S. (if requested). When configuring the USB-COM interface, the relevant
files and drivers must be installed from the USB Device Installation software, which can be
downloaded from the web page http://www.delfi.com.

The reader is ready to read barcodes. Successive start-ups will automatically recognize the
previously loaded drivers.

3.5 CHANGING DEFAULT SETTINGS

Once your reader is setup, you can change the default parameters to meet your
application needs. Refer to the preceding paragraphs for initial configuration in order to
set the default values and select the interface for your application.

In this manual, the configuration parameters are divided into logical groups making it easy
to find the desired function based on its reference group.

The first five groups are for Standard/IBM Interface parameter configuration:

RS-232

USB

WEDGE (only for DelfiScan M80 type:130)

PEN EMULATION

The following parameter groups are common to all interface applications:

DATA FORMAT parameters regard the messages sent to the Host system for all interfaces
except Pen Emulation.

READING PARAMETERS control various operating modes and indicator status

functioning.

DECODING PARAMETERS maintain correct barcode decoding in certain special reading

conditions.

CODE SELECTION parameters allow configuration of a personalized mix of codes, code

families and their options.

ADVANCED FORMATTING PARAMETERS allow code concatenation and advanced

formatting of messages towards the Host. It cannot be used with Pen Emulation
connections.

RADIO PARAMETERS (Mobile series only) allow configuration of radio control

parameters.

KEYBOARD SETTING
ALPHANUMERIC KEYBOARD SETTING
The reader can be used with terminals or PCs with various keyboard types and nationalities through a
simple keyboard setting procedure.
The type of computer or terminal must be selected before activating the keyboard setting command.
Keyboard setting consists of communicating to the reader how to send data corresponding to the
keyboard used in the application. The keys must be set in a specific order.
Press and release a key to set it.
Some characters may require more than one key pressed simultaneously during normal use (refer to
the manual of your PC or terminal for keyboard use). The exact sequence must be indicated to the
reader in this case pressing and releasing the different keys.

Example:
If one has to press the "Shift" and "4" keys simultaneously on the keyboard to transmit the character
"$" to the video, to set the "$", press and release "Shift" then press and release "4".

Each pressed and released key must generate an acoustic signal on the reader, otherwise repress the
key. Never press more than one key at the same time, even if this corresponds to the normal use of
your keyboard.

Press "Backspace" to correct a wrong key entry. In this case the reader emits 2 beeps.
Note: "CAPS LOCK" and "NUM LOCK" must be off before starting the keyboard setting
procedure. "SHIFT" must be repressed for each character and cannot be substituted by "CAPS
LOCK".

setting the alphanumeric keyboard

ÌFB0TÎ
Read the code above.
Press the keys shown in the following table according to their numerical order.

Some ASCII characters may be missing as this depends on the type of keyboard: these are generally
particular characters relative to the various national symbologies. In this case:
• The first 4 characters (Shift, Alt, Ctrl, and Backspace) can only be substituted with keys not
used, or substituted with each other.
• characters can be substituted with other single symbols (e.g. "SPACE") even if not included in the
barcode set used.
• characters can be substituted with others corresponding to your keyboard.
The reader signals the end of the procedure with 2 beeps indicating the keys have been
registered.

The keyboard setup functioning is signaled by the LEDs on the cradle. Each key stroke corresponds to
a double blinking of the yellow LED.

By pressing the Backspace key the red LED on the cradle blinks, while the yellow LED stays on.

Do not place the reader onto the cradle during this procedure. Otherwise, the battery
charging will occur modifying the LEDs functioning.
CAUTION

Once the procedure has been completed, the yellow LED turns off.

• AIM standard identifiers are not defined for all codes: the X identifier is assigned to the code for
which the standard is not defined. The y value depends on the selected options (check digit
tested or not, check digit tx or not, etc.).

• When customizing the Datalogic Standard code identifiers, 1 or 2 identifier characters can be
defined for each code type. If only 1 identifier character is required, the second character must be
selected as FF (disabled).

• The code identifier can be singly disabled for any code by simply selecting FF as the first
identifier character.

4.1.2 ACK/NACK Protocol

This parameter sets a transmission protocol in which the Host responds to the reader after
every code transmitted. The Host sends an ACK character (06 HEX) in the case of good
reception or the NACK character (15 HEX) requesting re-transmission, in the case of bad
reception.

DelfiScan M80 cable Host

ACK or NACK

ACK/NACK enabled

If the reader does not receive an ACK or NACK, transmission is ended after the RX Timeout
(see par. 4.1.4).

When ACK/NACK protocol is enabled, FIFO must be disabled manually, see par. 4.1.3.

The transmission protocol takes place between reader, cradle and Host. The reader passes
its data (code read) to the cradle, which sends it to the Host.

In the following descriptions the completed transmission is indicated by the Beeper

Control for Radio Response parameter with its default setting to Normal, see par. 4.5.3.

When ACK/NACK is disabled, there is no control from cradle to Host transmission, the
reader responds with the good reception tone.

When ACK/NACK is enabled, the Host sends an ACK character (06 HEX) in the case of good
reception or the NACK character (15 HEX) requesting re-transmission, in the case of bad
reception. Only after the ACK character is received by the cradle does the reader respond
with the good reception tone.

If the reader does not receive an ACK or NACK, transmission is ended after the RX Timeout
(see par. 4.1.4).

When ACK/NACK protocol is enabled, FIFO must be disabled manually, see par. 4.1.3.

4.1.3 FIFO

This parameter determines whether data (barcodes) are buffered on a First In First Out
basis allowing faster data collection in certain cases for example when using slow baud
rates and/or hardware handshaking.

115

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

 DELFISCAN M80

If the FIFO buffering is enabled, codes are collected and sent out on the serial line in the
order of acquisition. About 800 characters can be collected (buffer full), after which the
reader signals an error and discards any further codes until the transmission is restored.

If the FIFO buffering is disabled, each code must be transmitted before another one can be
read.

If enabled, the cradle collects all messages sent by DelfiScan M80 and sends them in order
of acquisition to the connected Host.

If disabled, DelfiScan M80 blocks message transmission until the cradle has completed
transmission towards the Host.

4.1.4 RX Timeout

When the RS-232 interface is selected, the Host can be used to configure the device by
sending it command strings (see appendix A).

This parameter can be used to automatically end data reception from the Host after the
specified period of time.

If no character is received from the Host, after the timeout expires, any incomplete string
(any string not terminated by <CR>) is flushed from the device buffer.

4.2 PEN PARAMETERS

4.2.1 Minimum Output Pulse

This parameter sets the duration of the output pulse corresponding to the narrowest
element in the barcode. In this way the code resolution is controlled by the signal sent to
the decoder, independently of the physical resolution of the code read.

The shortest pulse (200 μs) corresponds to a high resolution code emulation and therefore
a shorter transfer speed to the decoder (for decoders able to work on high resolution
codes). Likewise, longer pulses correspond to low resolution code emulation and therefore
a longer transfer time to the decoder.

4.2.2 Conversion to Code 39 and Code 128

When using these readers it is possible to choose between converting the decoded codes
into either Code 39 format or Code 128 format. It is not possible to disable conversion.

117

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

 DELFISCAN M80

4.2.3 Overflow

This parameter generates a white space before the first bar and after the last bar of the
code. The selections are as follows:

narrow = space 10 times the minimum output pulse.

medium = space 20 times the minimum output pulse.
wide = space 30 times the minimum output pulse.

4.2.4 Output and Idle Levels

The following state diagrams describe the different output and idle level combinations for
Pen emulation:

4.2.5 Inter-Block Delay

For the PEN Emulation interface, data are sent to the Host in fixed size blocks of 20
characters each. The inter-block delay parameter allows setting a delay between each
block sent to the Host.

DATA FORMAT

The system always provides reader to host data communication using the following
message formatting:

Output Message from DelfiScan M80 or DelfiScan M80 Stand Alone Towards Host
[Header] [Gun_Addr] [Gun_Addr_delimiter] ] [Code ID] [Code Length] CODE
[Terminator]
[Items in square brackets are optional.]

Output Message from DelfiScan M80 STAR-System™ Towards Host

[Header] [Code ID] [Code Length] CODE [Terminator]
[Items in square brackets are optional.]

4.2.6 Header/Terminator Selection

The header/terminator selection is not effected by the reading of the restore default code.
In fact, header and terminator default values depend on the interface selection:
RS-232: no header, terminator CR-LF
WEDGE: no header, terminator ENTER
These default values are always restored through the reading of RS-232 or WEDGE
interface selection code, see chapter 2.

4.2.8 Address Stamping

It is possible to include the reader address in the message sent to the host. The reader
Address Stamping parameter consists of a 4-digit number in the range
0000-1999.
For message output format, refer to par. 0.

4.2.9 Address Delimiter

The Address Delimiter allows a character to be included to separate the reader Address
stamping field from the next field in the message. Any character can be included in the
hexadecimal range from 00 to FE.
For message output format, refer to par. 0.

4.2.10 Enter Sleep Timeout

For readers that have the Sleep state enabled, this timeout determines when the reader
will enter this state.

4.2.11 Standby

If this command is enabled, part of the CCD circuitry shuts down (Standby), in order to
optimize low power consumption when not reading. When the trigger is pressed this
circuitry powers up. This mode causes a minor delay of about 100 ms before the reader is
ready.

Standby is always enabled and is not configurable. To exit Standby press the trigger.

4.3 READING PARAMETERS

4.3.1 Hardware Trigger Mode

This mode determines how the reading phase is controlled when the hardware trigger
operating mode is selected:
• trigger active level: the reader goes ON when the trigger is pressed and goes OFF when
it is released
• trigger active pulse: the reader goes ON at the first trigger press and goes OFF only at a
second press

4.3.2 Trigger-Off Timeout

When this timeout is selected, the reader turns OFF automatically after the desired period
of time.

4.3.3 Reads per Cycle

In general, a reading cycle corresponds to the ON + OFF times of a device.

The resulting effects of this parameter on code reading depend on other related
configuration conditions. Here are the definitions of ON and OFF times.

• For readers using the software trigger parameter (FLASH MODE), a reading cycle
corresponds to the flash on + flash off times. Code reading takes place during the flash
on time.
• For readers using the hardware trigger parameter, a reading cycle corresponds to a
trigger press (ON) + one of the following OFF events:
trigger release (for trigger active level)
a second trigger press (for trigger active pulse)
trigger-off timeout (see par. 4.3.2).
When one read per cycle is selected, the device decodes only one code during the ON
period and immediately turns the reader OFF. It is only possible to read another code when
the next ON time occurs.
In multiple reads per cycle, the ON period is extended so that the device can continue
decoding codes until an OFF event occurs. For software trigger mode, the flash on period is
immediately reset after each read and therefore extended. If another code is decoded

130

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

 REFERENCES

before the reset flash on period expires, it is again reset and the effect is that the device
remains ON, decoding codes until the flash on or timeout period expires.
The Safety Time parameter should be used in this case to avoid unwanted multiple reading
of the same code, see par. 4.3.4.

4.3.4 Safety Time

Safety time prevents the device from immediately decoding the same code more than
once. Same code consecutive reading can be disabled requiring the reader to be removed
from the code (no decoding) for at least 400 ms, or a timeout can be set up to 9.9 seconds
before the decoder will accept the same code. Reading is immediate if the code changes.
The safety time parameter is not applicable when reading stacked codes or when setting
one read per cycle in hardware trigger operating mode, since these settings require
voluntary action by the user.

4.4 DECODING PARAMETERS

These parameters are intended to enhance the decoding capability of the

reader for particular applications. Used incorrectly, they can degrade the
reading performance or increase the possibility of a decoding error.
CAUTION

4.4.1 Ink-Spread
The ink-spread parameter allows the decoding of codes, which are not perfectly printed
because the page texture tends to absorb the ink.

4.4.2 Overflow Control

The overflow control parameter can be disabled when decoding codes printed on small
surfaces, which do not allow the use of an overflow space.
This command does not affect code families 2/5, Code 128 and Code 93.

4.4.3 Interdigit Control

The interdigit control parameter verifies the interdigit spacing for code families Code 39
and Codabar.

4.5 RADIO PARAMETERS

4.5.1 Radio Protocol Timeout

This parameter sets the valid time to wait before transmission between the reader and the
cradle is considered failed.
This parameter should be set taking into consideration the radio traffic (number of readers
in the same area).

If the RS-232 interface is used with ACK/NACK enabled, this parameter should be at least
equal to the RX Timeout parameter for low traffic environments. It should be increased if
there are many readers in the same area.

131

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

 DELFISCAN M80

It can be set between 2 and 19 seconds.

4.5.2 Power-Off Timeout

If this command is enabled, after the desired timeout in hours, the batteries are
disconnected and all power consumption ceases. To restore power, press the trigger once.
The reader will now be ready to read codes.
Power-off does not affect configuration parameters.

4.5.3 Beeper Control for Radio Response

The data entry good read tone normally results in two beeps; the first indicates that the
reader has decoded the code; the second indicates whether cradle has received the data.
This can be changed according to the following selections:
♦ Normal: both good decode and good reception are signaled (two beeps).
♦ Only Good Decode: only the first beep indicating a good read is signaled.
♦ Only Good Reception: only the second beep indicating a good reception is signaled.
♦ Off: Neither good read nor good reception beeps are signaled.
For all configurations, any transmission errors will always be signaled.

4.5.4 Single Store

When single store mode is enabled, if the DelfiScan M80 fails to transmit a code to the
cradle, it enters a special operating mode that prevents the user from reading barcodes.
When such operating mode is entered, the trigger no longer enables barcode reading but
is used to retry transmission itself for the number of attempts selected in configuration.
Once the transmission is successful the reader returns to the standard mode. If
transmission is not successful after the number of configured attempts, the code is
discarded.

Single store may be useful if you often read codes at the limit of the coverage area and
there is a chance that code transmission can fail. In such case single store allows you to
move to a more favorable position or location (i.e. closer to the cradle) and retry
transmission without the necessity of re-reading the code since it is already stored in the
reader.

Conversely, if single store is disabled, and the user wants to retry transmission, the code
must be read again, and therefore the attempt must be made from basically the same
location. If the user gives up, he does not know if the transaction was successful. (Actually
the transmission could have been successful but the cradle may have been unable to
acknowledge the message). There are applications in which there is no risk of transmission
failure. In such cases it may be better to disable single store so that the user perceives a
more consistent behavior of the trigger in that it always corresponds to code reading.

4.5.5 Batch Mode

This Operating Mode allows storing read codes in the internal reader RAM memory. The
stored codes are transmitted to the base station at a later time according to the type of
batch mode selected.
Batch mode can be enabled either manually (normal batch mode) or automatically.
Normal batch mode temporarily suspends radio communication between reader and base
station allowing codes to be stored in the reader on a FIFO basis. This can be useful for

132

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

 REFERENCES

example, if codes must be read from a location where there is no radio network. Upon
returning to the system working area, this mode requires reading the Start Normal Batch
Transmission barcode to successively transmit the list of stored codes to the base station.
The FIFO management assures that the first code read will be the first code to be
transmitted to the base station.

The Delete Batch Data barcode allows canceling all barcode data stored in the reader.
Automatic batch mode allows codes to be stored in the reader on a FIFO basis whenever
the reader is out of radio range. In this case radio communication is not suspended and
transmission is attempted after each code read. If transmission cannot be successfully
completed, then the code is added to the list. When the reader returns in range,
transmission of the codes to the base station resumes automatically, according to the
selected communication protocol, upon simply pressing and releasing the trigger or by
successfully reading a new code.

 HOST CONFIGURATION STRINGS

A HOST CONFIGURATION STRINGS

In this section we provide a description of how to modify the device configuration using
serial strings sent from the Host.
This method requires either the RS-232 or USB-COM interface.

The device configuration can be changed by receiving commands from the Host through
the serial interface. When this method is used, the programming sequence format is the
following:

$+ Command $- CR

Carriage return character (0D Hex.)

Exit and Save configuration
Character sequence in following tables
Enter configuration environment

Example:
Multiple command programming sequence:
$+ BG1 BH0 AC410132 $- CR

Carriage return character (0D Hex.)

Exit and save new configuration
Matrix 2/5 3 bars: no check digit,
variable length code from 1 to 32 characters
Beeper tone 1
Beeper low intensity
Enter configuration environment

Each configuration parameter setting removes the condition previously active for that
parameter.

The device buffer can contain about 400 characters. If your programming
string goes over this value, you must split it into separate groups and send each
group after a delay of at least 3 seconds to give the reader time to empty the
NOTE buffer and interpret the commands.
