1 QuickScan™ QD2131 Description With rich feature sets and extensive options, the QuickScan™ product series from Datalogic represents the premium level of data collection equipment for general purpose applications. Omni- Directional Operating To read a symbol simply aim the reader and pull the trigger. The QuickScan™ QD2131 reader is a versatile linear imager, featuring a wide scanning angle with an extended scanning line which is per- fect for reading long and truncated bar codes. Datalogic's exclusive patented `Green Spot' for good-read feedback helps to improve productivity in noisy environments or in situations where silence is required. Decoding Reliably decodes all standard 1D (linear) bar codes, including GS1 DataBar™ linear codes. The data stream — acquired from decoding a sym- bol — is rapidly sent to the host. The reader is immediately available to read another symbol.

Setting Up the Reader

2 QuickScan™ QD2131 Setting Up the Reader Follow the steps below to connect and get your reader up and communicating with its host. 1. Connect the Cable to the reader and the Host (see "Connect/Disconnect Cable to Reader" on page 2 and "Connect Host Interface" on page 3). 2.

5 Programming The reader is factory-configured with a set of standard default features. After scanning the interface bar code from the Interfaces section, select other options and customize your reader through use of the programming bar codes avail- able in the QuickScan QD2131 PRG. Check the corresponding features section for your interface, and also the Data Editing and Symbologies chapters of the PRG. Using Programming Bar Codes This manual contains bar codes which allow you to reconfig- ure your reader. Some programming bar code labels, like the Reset Default Settings on page 6, require only the scan of that single label to enact the change. Other bar codes require the reader to be placed in Program- ming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code once to enter Programming Mode; scan the desired parameter settings; scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code again to accept your changes, which exits Programming Mode and returns the reader to normal operation. Configure Other Settings Additional programming bar codes are available in the PRG to allow for customizing programming features. If your installa- tion requires different programming than the standard fac- tory default settings, refer to the PRG. Resetting Product Defaults If you aren’t sure what programming options are in your reader, or you’ve changed some options and want your cus- tom factory settings restored, scan the bar code below to reset the reader to its initial configuration. Reference the PRG for other options, and a listing of standard factory settings. NOTE Factory defaults are based on the interface type. Be sure your reader is configured for the correct interface before scanning this label. See "Select- ing the Interface Type" on page 6 for more infor- mation.

Selecting the Interface Type

6 QuickScan™ QD2131 Selecting the Interface Type Upon completing the physical connection between the reader and its host, proceed directly to Interface Selection below for information and programming for the interface type the reader is connected to (for example: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, USB, etc.) and scan the appropriate bar code to select your system’s correct interface type. Interface Selection The reader model will support one of the following sets of host interfaces: General Purpose/ Retail Point of Sale Model — RS-232, USB OEM, Keyboard. Information and programming options for each interface type are provided in this section. For defaults and additional infor- mation associated with each interface, proceed to the corre- sponding chapter in the QuickScan QD2131 PRG. Configuring the Interface Scan the appropriate programming bar code to select the interface type for your system. NOTE Unlike some other programming features and options, interface selections require that you scan only one programming bar code label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code prior to scan an interface selection bar code. Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the disabled state when powered up. If addi- tional scanner configuration is desired while in this state, pull the trigger and hold for 5 seconds. The scanner will change to a state that allows programming with bar codes.

17 Operating Modes Scan Mode The imager can operate in one of several scanning modes. Trigger Single — When the trigger is pulled, scanning is acti- vated until one of the following occurs: • a programmable duration1 has elapsed • a label has been read • the trigger is released • "maximum scan on time" is reached This mode is associated with typical handheld reader opera- tion. Trigger Hold Multiple — When the trigger is pulled, scanning starts and the product scans until the trigger is released, a programmable duration 1 has elapsed or the "maximum scan on time" is reached to make scanner off. Reading a label does not disable scanning. "Double read"1 time-out prevents unde- sired multiple reads while in this mode. Trigger Pulse Multiple — Scanning begins when the trigger is pulled and continues after the trigger is released until the trigger is pulled again or until the "maximum scan on time" is reached or a programmable duration1 has elapsed. Reading a label does not disable scanning. "Double read"1 time-out pre- vents undesired multiple reads. Flashing — The reader flashes1 on and off regardless of the trigger status. Code reading takes place only during the flash on time. "Double read"1 time-out prevents undesired multiple reads. Always On — The illuminator is always ON regardless of the trigger status and the reader is always ready for code reading. "Double read"1 time-out prevents undesired multiple reads. Object Detection — In this mode the scanner looks for scene changes within its field-of-view to initiate read attempts. The Green Spot can be configured to be on, to help the user to find the position of the reading line. When an object’s presence is detected in the scene the illumi- nator turns on and turns off the green spot. Scanning contin- ues until the Object Gone Timeout expires after last read. "Double read" timeout1 prevents undesired multiple reads while in this mode. Trigger Object Sense — It is similar to Object Detection. A trig- ger pull is required to activate the decoder. 1.

LED and Beeper Indications

22 QuickScan™ QD2131 LED and Beeper Indications The reader’s beeper sounds and its top multi-colour LED illu- minates to indicate various functions or errors on the reader. An optional “Green Spot” also performs useful functions. The following tables list these indications. One exception to the behaviors listed in the tables is that the reader’s functions are programmable, and so may or may not be turned on. For example, certain indications such as the power-up beep can be disabled using programming bar code labels. Indicator Description LED Beeper Power-up Beep The reader is in the process of powering-up. Reader beeps four times at highest fre- quency and vol- ume upon power-up. Good Read Beep A label has been successfully scanned by the reader. LED behavior for this indica- tion is configu- rable via the feature “Good Read: When to Indicate” (see the PRG for information.) The reader will beep once at current fre- quency, vol- ume, mono/bi- tonal setting and duration upon a suc- cessful label scan. ROM Failure There is an error in the reader's software/pro- gramming Flashes Reader sounds one error beep at highest vol- ume. Limited Scan- ning Label Read Indicates that a host connection is not estab- lished. N/A Reader 'chirps' six times at the highest fre- quency and current volume. Reader Active Mode The reader is active and ready to scan. The LED is lit steadilya N/A

N/A Reader sounds one short beep at highest fre- quency and current vol- ume. Indicator Description LED Beeper

Upon startup, if the reader sounds a long tone, this means the

reader has not passed its automatic Selftest and has entered FRU (Field Replaceable Unit) isolation mode. If the reader is reset, the sequence will be repeated. Press and release the trigger to hear the FRU indication code. The following table describes the LED flashes/beep codes associated with an error found. Label Pro- gramming Mode Accep- tance of Pro- gramming Configuration option(s) have been successfully pro- grammed via labels and the reader has exited Program- ming Mode. N/A Reader sounds one high fre- quency beep and 4 low fre- quency beeps followed by reset beeps. Label Pro- gramming Mode Cancel Item Entry Cancel label has been scanned.
