3.9Negative Barcodes

The scanner can be configured to read negative barcodes. Normally, barcodes are printed with the color of the bars darker than that of the spaces. But for negative barcodes, they are printed in the opposite sense just like negative films. The spaces of the negative barcodes are printed with a color darker than that of the bars.

4.Output Interface (Base Unit)

The WWS800/850 is a multi-interface scanner. It can be used as a keyboard wedge scanner, an RS-232 scanner, or a USB scanner. The output interface can be programmed using the setup barcodes in this manual.

Please ensure that you have an RF connection between the scanner and the base prior to selecting the interface type.

4.1Keyboard Wedge Interface

The keyboard wedge interface is enabled by configuring/selecting keyboard type. The supported keyboard types are listed below.

4.1.2Keyboard Style - Alphabets

Keyboard layout style can be selected. There are three options to this setting: default layout (US or English style), AZERTY layout, and QWERTZ layout. This setting only works when the keyboard type selected is for US keyboard. The scanner will make necessary adjustment when sending the ‘A’, ‘Q’, ‘W’, ‘Z’, ‘Y’, and ‘M’ character according to this setting.

4.1.3Keyboard Style – Digits

There are two digit layout styles as shown on the following figures. One has digit on top (upper row) of a key and another has digits on bottom (lower row) of a key.

The digit layout style can be changed by the following configuration settings. There are three options: Default, Lower Row, and Upper Row. The scanner will make necessary adjustment when sending digits according to the setting value of this parameter. This setting is used with the above setting (Keyboard Style – Alphabets) and perhaps Character Substitution setting, when support to languages not available on the scanner is needed.
