Configuring the Scanner

Located in the Version 11 scanner are two computer boards. One board is for decoding and the other for 46XX IO processing. The decode board is configured using ScanSet™ or ScanSelect™ while the IO board is configured with an internal DIP Switch bank.

For UPC/EAN scanning, the decode board should be set as follows:

Enable IBM 4680 Communication

Enable UPC/EAN

Beep after Transmit

Enable Communication Timeouts

Transmit UPC-A Check Digit

Transmit UPC-E Check Digit

These settings configure the decode board to beep after transmitting the data to the terminal device driver. If the data does not clear the communications buffer within two seconds, it is discarded without giving the operator a good scan indication. This accommodates newer versions of the IBM device drivers that enable/disable scanning in many different situations.

The default setting of the interface board is to emulate the IBM 1520 hand scanner that supports UPC/EAN and alphanumeric code types. The following is a list of switch settings for the internal interface board that handles the 46XX SIOC communications.

There are eight DIP switches on the board that are both software and hardware switches.

Switch 1	Switch 2	Emulation Mode
OFF	OFF	Port 5B, IBM 1520 Model 2 Laser Scanner
		(default setting)
OFF	ON	Port 9B, CCD (IBM 4500/Opticon)
ON	OFF	Port 17, IBM 4014 Adaptor for 3687-2 to 468X
ON	ON	Reserved

Switch 3	Reserved (Should be OFF)
Switches 4, 5, 6, and 7	Must be ON
Switch 8	Should be OFF (Reserved)
