Data Capture for Workforce in Motion Introduction The D-Fly barcode scanner can be programmed by scanning barcode labels which contain commands for the 1D decoder. Programming labels must be Code128, with specific starting and ending characters. These labels will always be read, even if Code128 symbology is disabled. The scanner will acknowledge a good and valid programming bar code label reading with two beeps and a green enlightening led.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion 1. General Configuration 1.1. General default settings The reading of the "Reset to factory settings” label turns all the parameters of the scanner back to default settings and switches it off Reset to factory settings D-Fly – Programming Guide v1.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion 1.2. 1.2.1. Baracoda advanced features Switch on delay In order to switch on the scanner in its standard mode, you should just press the trigger. You can set up the scanner to be switched on only after keeping the trigger pressed for two (2) seconds by reading the appropriate barcode. Switch on delay : 2 seconds \ V T \ V T z \ N U L \ S O H \ E T X \ F F \ F F Switch on delay : 0 second (*) 1.2.2.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion 1.2.4. No data loss mode and Baracoda Header Baracoda header: It is a proprietary data encapsulation. It is necessary to activate it to use the Baracoda keyboard emulation (Kemul) and Terminal. The Baracoda header is enabled in default settings No data loss mode: Baracoda has developed a proprietary communication protocol in order to enhance the security of the Bluetooth transmission.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion The “No duplicate scan” option has been developed for users who do not want to scan the same barcode twice. « no duplicate scans » disabled (*) « no duplicate scans » enabled + error signal If the same barcode is scanned, an error signal is played (two beeps (lower tone) and a red enlightening of the led) « no duplicate scans » enabled + no decoding If the same barcode is trying to be scanned, it won’t be. The laser beam will still be enlightening.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion 1.4. Operating Mode Real Time mode In real time mode, the barcode is decoded and transmitted to the remote host without any delay. If the scanner is not connected, the data is lost. Real Time mode with No Data Loss option If the No Data Loss option is activated and if the scanner is not connected or out of Bluetooth range, the scanner will store the data.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion 1.4.3. No Data Loss mode - Disable “ACK” beep Forces the scanner in Real Time mode (without data acknowledgement); Erases all captured data stored in memory. The scanner should have been previously set in the “No data loss mode” ON (So scan the “Enable Real Time with No Data Loss mode” barcode before). Disable ACK beep 1.4.4.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion For example: to set the following BDA: 00:c3:EF:44:a2:B9, the user will scan: - “Set Remote BDA” label, - “0” label, - “0” label, - “c” label, - “3” label, - “E” label, - “F” label, - “4” label, - “4” label, - “a” label, - “2” label, - “B” label, - “9” label, - “End of Config” label. Set Remot e BDA End of Conf i g \ \ V T \ V T ^ \ N U L \ S OH \ E N Q\ L F \ L F 1.6.

Data Capture for Workforce in Motion 1.7. 1.7.1. Bluetooth settings Bluetooth name You can change the scanner Bluetooth name; name that you see during a search of Bluetooth peripheral. Programming procedure for “Set Bluetooth Name” Set BT Name End of config D-Fly – Programming Guide v1.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion 1.7.2. Sniff period settings Change the Sniff period. If the higher is the latency and the smaller is the power consumption. Default value is 150ms. Sniff period = 150ms (*) Sniff period = 100ms Sniff period = 200ms Sniff period = 300ms Sniff period = 500ms D-Fly – Programming Guide v1.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion 1.7.3. Security (code PIN) settings Some Bluetooth device will not accept connections with devices that do not have a security code. Disable BT security code Enable BT security code (*) D-Fly – Programming Guide v1.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion 1.8. Data format The barcode string can be added a timestamp, prefixes and/or suffixes. The symbology prefix/suffix can be added by BaracodaManager only. These can come as described below: Data - Barcode Data: If data type is barcode, it comes with this data frame format Barcode prefix Barcode Barcode suffix Max. 32 chars Max.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion If enabled, a Barcode prefix/suffix can be set in the same manner as the Data prefix/suffix can be set: Set Barcode prefix Set Barcode suffix End of configuration 1.8.2. AIM Symbology Identifier AIM Identifier will be transmitted at the beginning of the barcode. More information about the AIM Identifier is available in Appendix2. AIM Symbology identifier - not transmitted (*) AIM Symbology identifier - transmitted D-Fly – Programming Guide v1.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion 2. Decoder Parameters 2.1. Decoder default settings Sets the defaults decoder settings for all the symbologies Set Decoder Default Settings 2.2. Enable/Disable All Symbologies Even if all symbologies are disabled, the scanner will always be able to read the programming barcodes of this document. Disable all symbologies Enable all symbologies (*) 2.3. Set decoder barcode length You can set a fixed length for the barcode decoding.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion Set barcode length END of config 2.4. Voting Standard voting set is two (2). This means that a barcode is considered read by the decoder if the same data is decoded twice. Changing this parameter will enable a stronger security on the decoding of the barcode. Voting = 2 (*) Voting = 3 Voting = 4 D-Fly – Programming Guide v1.
Data Capture for Workforce in Motion 2.5. Min/Max length per symbology The following is a procedure to follow for every barcode symbology.
