1 GETTING STARTED

1.1 DESCRIPTION

The LYNX™ Hand-Held Reader packs a lot of performance into anattractive, rugged, hand-held device. It operates in commercial and industrialenvironments as well as the front office.

OmnidirectionalOperating

To read a symbol or capture an image, you simply aim thereader and pull the trigger. Since the orientation of thesymbol is not important, the LYNX™ reader is a powerful,omnidirectional device.

DecodingandImaging

In normal operating mode, powerful algorithms reliablydecode all major 1D (linear) barcodes, 2D stacked codes(such as PDF417), 2D matrix symbols (such as DataMatrix,MaxiCode, and QR Code), postal codes (such as POSTNET,PLANET). The data stream — acquired from decoding asymbol — is rapidly sent to the host. The reader isimmediately available to read another symbol.

In image mode the reader captures images of signatures,labels and other items (see par. 1.6.2 and par.1.6.3 for furtherdetails).

FLASH MEMORY Flash technology allows to upgrade the LYNX™ reader asnew symbologies are supported or as improved decodingalgorithms become available.

1.2 ACCESSORIES

The following parts are included in the LYNX™ package contents:

• LYNX™ Hand-Held Reader

• CD-ROM containing the Lynx™ Configuration Tools software.

• LYNX™ Instruction Manual

You may want to save your packing material in case you need to ship thereader at some later time.

1.6 OPERATING THE READER

1.6.1 Aiming System

The LYNX™ reader uses an intelligent aiming system similar to those oncameras. The aiming system creates a field of view where the code is to bepositioned:

Figure 1.3 - Aiming System

When you pull the trigger completely a red beam illuminates the code. If theaiming system is centered and the entire symbology is within the aimingsystem, you will get a good read. The field of view changes size as you movethe reader closer or farther away from the code.

Linear barcode 2D Matrix symbol

Figure 1.4 - Relative Size and Location of Aiming System Pattern

DATALOGIC LYNX™

5

The field of view created by the aiming system will be smaller when theLynx™ is closer to the code and larger when it is farther from the code.Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closerto the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil size) should beread farther from the unit. (See par. 1.6.4 for further details).

1.6.2 Decoding

When the reader is in normal operating mode, (see par. 2.6):

• Point the reader at the target and pull the trigger partially to enable theaiming system. Then, pull it completely to capture and decode the image.The reader will repeatedly flash until the symbol is decoded or timeout isreached. In between the flashes of the reader, the aiming system keepson showing the field of view on the target (see Figure 1.4).

• As you are reading code symbols, adjust the distance at which you areholding the reader.

NOTE

The LYNX™ hand-held reader aiming system is designed forgeneral reading and decoding of 1D and 2D symbols. Somevariation in reading distance will occur due to narrow bar widthand other factors.

1.6.3 Image Capturing

When the reader is in image operating mode, (see par. 2.6):

• You can use the aiming system to position the reader from the object(ensure the reader is about centered over the target). Adjust the distanceat which you are holding the reader (see Figure 1.4).

2 CONFIGURATION USING BARCODE SYMBOLS

This section describes the programming method of using configurationbarcode symbols to program your reader. By using the LYNX™ reader toread/decode these special configuration symbols, you can configure, andobtain information from its system software.

When you are reading configuration barcode symbols, carefully aim theLYNX™ 2D reader to avoid reading adjacent symbols.

The configuration barcode symbols in this chapter are divided intological sections according to the type of configuration required, (RS232configuration, Code selection, etc.). If arguments are required with acommand, you can read additional barcode labels (typically digits) fromAppendix B.

To configure your reader:

1. Open the folded page in Appendix B the Hex/Numeric table and keep itopen during the device configuration.

2. Read the Enter Configuration code ONCE, available on the foldedpage in Appendix B or in par. 2.2.1.

3. Modify the desired parameters in one or more sections by reading theparameter code and selecting the value from the Hex/Numeric table orby following the procedures given.

4. Read the Exit and Save Configuration code ONCE, available on thefolded page in Appendix B or in par. 2.2.1.

Example:To set the maximum length of characters in a Code 39 barcode symbol thatthe reader will decode to 32:• first read the Maximum Length symbol for Code 39 on page 42.• then read the symbol for the digit "3" and lastly the symbol for the digit

"2" in Appendix B.

Alphanumeric Keys

The reader can be used with terminals or PCs with various keyboard typesand nationalities through a simple keyboard setting procedure

The type of computer or terminal must be selected before activating thekeyboard setting command.

Keyboard setting consists of communicating to the reader how to send datacorresponding to the keyboard used in the application. The keys must be setin a specific order.

Press and release a key to set it.

Some characters may require more than one key pressed simultaneouslyduring normal use (refer to the manual of your PC or terminal for keyboarduse). The exact sequence must be indicated to the reader in this casepressing and releasing the different keys.

Example:If one has to press the "Shift" and "4" keys simultaneously on the keyboard totransmit 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 thereader, otherwise repress the key. Never press more than one key at thesame time, even if this corresponds to the normal use of your keyboard.

Press "Backspace" to correct a wrong key entry. In this case the readeremits 2 beeps.

Note: "CAPS LOCK" and "NUM LOCK" must be off before starting thekeyboard setting procedure. "SHIFT" must be repressed for eachcharacter and cannot be substituted by "CAPS LOCK".

Read the "Alphanumeric Keys" code.

Press the keys shown in the following table according to their numericalorder:

Some ASCII characters may be missing as this depends on the type ofkeyboard: these are generally particular characters relative to the variousnational symbologies. In this case:

• The first 4 characters (Shift, Alt, Ctrl, and Backspace) can only besubstituted 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 yourkeyboard.

The reader signals the end of the procedure with 2 beeps indicating thekeys have been registered.

Extended Keys

The header/terminator selection is not effected by the reading of the restoredefault code. In fact, header and terminator default values depend on theinterface selection:

RS232: no header, terminator CR-LFWEDGE: no header, terminator ENTER

These default values are always restored through the reading of RS232 orWEDGE interface selection code.For the WEDGE interface, the following extended keyboard value can alsobe configured:

The extended Header/Terminator keys for Wedge Interface users can becustomized by defining them through a simple keyboard setting procedure.

For example, the Numeric Keypad keys can be set for use as Headers orTerminators by substituting the default extended keys during this procedure.

The type of computer or terminal must be selected before activating thekeyboard setting command.

Press and release a key to set it.

Some characters may require more than one key pressed simultaneouslyduring normal use (refer to the manual of your PC or terminal for keyboarduse). The exact sequence must be indicated to the reader in this casepressing and releasing the different keys.

Acoustic Signals

Four types of acoustic signals are associated to the following procedures:1. Enter keyboard setup2. Exit keyboard setup3. SHIFT, ALT, CTRL, BACKSPACE keys4. Keyboard keys (SHIFT, ALT, CTRL, BACKSPACE excluded)

These signals facilitate the selection of those characters requiring more thanone key pressed simultaneously.

Example

The transmission of the "%" character implies two different procedures:1. Press the SHIFT key2. Press the "5" keyThe different tones produced by the reader indicate that both the procedureshas been successful and that the character has been transmitted.

4 TROUBLESHOOTING & MAINTENANCE

4.1 CABLE CONNECTIONS

Ensure your reader-to-host interface cable and the reader power supplycable are correctly and firmly attached (see "System Connections" in par.1.3).

If the reader is simply not functioning, contact your nearest Datalogicdistributor.

4.2 CONFIGURATION TOOLS

If initial communication with the LYNX™ reader and the computer failedwhen using the LYNX™ Configuration Tools software, then your serial portmay be configured differently.

1. If your serial port is configured differently, choose Options > RS232 HostSetting to make the necessary settings for your COM port.

2. If you still can not establish host-reader communication, try one or moreof the following solution:

• restore the Reader's settings by reading the Restore System FieldsDefault symbol to set all communication settings to their default.

3. If you choose Actions > Dump Reader Status, then text for the currentreader configuration should appear in the text window. If nothinghappens, copy and complete the following Worksheet form and contactyour service representative.

DATALOGIC LYNX™

67

4.3 MAINTENANCE

You do not need to perform regular preventative maintenance on theLYNX™ reader.

Do not try to open the case, because you might damage the interiorelectronic components and such action voids the warranty.

You can keep your reader in good operating condition by:

• periodically cleaning the reading window using water or a mild detergentsolution and a soft cloth or tissue.

• watching for any damage to the housing.

CAUTIÓN

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents on the reader's window toavoid scratches. Do not use solvents on the housing or windowto avoid damage. Do not submerge the reader in water. It is notwaterproof.
