INTRODUCTION 1 1 INTRODUCTION Datalogic renews its range of industrial laser scanners introducing the Dragon™ family: Dragon™ Desk and Dragon™ Mobile. Based on the same rugged and reliable mechanics of the well-established DLL6000 series, they have been completely renewed inside.
DRAGON™ 2 2 INSTALLATION Connections should always be made with power OFF! CAUTION 2.1 DRAGON™ D INTERFACE CABLE CONNECTIONS The DRAGON™ D reader incorporates a multi-standard interface which can be connected to a Host by plugging an RS232, Wedge or Pen emulation cable into the connector and closing the cable cover as shown below.
INSTALLATION 2 Connections should always be made with power OFF! CAUTION 2.2 OM-DRAGON™ INTERFACE CABLE CONNECTIONS Power Multi-standard Interface RS232, WEDGE and PEN Emulation OM-DRAGON™ connectors The OM-DRAGON™ incorporates a multi-standard interface which can be connected to a Host by simply plugging an RS232, Wedge or Pen emulation cable into the Host connector, visible on the rear panel of the cradle.
DRAGON™ 2 2.3 RS232 CONNECTION 2.
INSTALLATION 2 2.5 PEN EMULATION CONNECTION 2.6 NETWORK CONNECTIONS 2.6.1 OM-DRAGON™ Network Connectors The multidrop network is a bus system which is propagated from one cradle to another using individual cables. This is possible thanks to the two RS485 connectors on the rear panel of the cradle.
DRAGON™ 2 The two RS485 connectors are identical in every respect so that the point-to-point cables can be chained together without limitations concerning the bus wiring. Obviously cable length is to be kept to a minimum as with all bus systems. 2.6.2 Network Cabling The Multidrop line is made using RJ45 connectors and a cable having the following specifications: • twisted pair AWG 24 wires • 120 Ω impedance • maximum network cable length 1200 meters Pin 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Function RS485 + RS485 N.
INSTALLATION 2 individually. The total number of devices which can be connected to a single power supply depends on the power supply voltage, the wire length and resistance and therefore the voltage drop. Do NOT connect VDC+ between network devices that are individually powered. 2.6.3 Network Termination The first and last cradles of the chain (the two ends of the bus) must be properly terminated. The cradle has an internal terminator that can be selected via jumper.
DRAGON™ 2 2.7.2 Battery Charging Once the system is connected and powered, you can place the DRAGON™ M into the cradle to charge the battery. When the scanner is correctly inserted in the cradle, the red LED on the cradle goes on to indicate that the battery is charging. The green LED on the cradle goes on when the battery is completely charged. When using NiCd or NiMh batteries, frequent recharging before fully discharging can cause a “memory effect” in which the batteries assume a reduced capacity.
INSTALLATION 2. 2 Open the battery cover. NOTE When the batteries are extracted from the scanner, the timer maintains the current hour and date for about 1 minute. 3. Replace the old batteries with new ones, then screw the battery cover back into place. NiMh, NiCd, or Alkaline AA batteries CAUTION Dispose of used batteries properly. Do not disassemble, modify, heat or throw batteries into fire. This could cause leakage of liquid, generation of heat or, in extreme cases, explosion.
DRAGON™ 2 2.
INSTALLATION 2.8.1 2 Portable Desktop Use For desktop use, the OM-DRAGON™ is already correctly positioned onto the base. Base 1. 2. 3. Carefully clean the rubber feet seat of the base to remove any impurities that could reduce adhesion. Remove the protective plastic from the rubber feet and stick them onto the bottom surface of the base. Rubber foot seat (4) Insert the antenna in the appropriate hole on the body of the cradle and screw it clockwise until tight.
DRAGON™ 2 2.8.2 Fixed Desktop Use For fixed desktop installation, use the adhesive strips. 1. If you are installing several cradles and you desire to align them, you can use the alignment plate (see Alignment Plate Installation), otherwise continue with step 2. Adhesive strip seats 2. 3. 4. 5. 12 Carefully clean the adhesive strip seat of the base to remove any impurities that could reduce adhesion.
INSTALLATION 2.8.3 Wall Mounting For wall mounting, the base must be reversed 180° with respect to the cradle top. Position the base so that the thick part with the weighted plate is towards the bottom, as shown below. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 2 Cradle Fixing Screw Unscrew the cradle fixing screw and detach the cradle from the base by holding the base tight and pushing the cradle backwards.
DRAGON™ 2 2.8.4 1. 2. Alignment Plate Installation Snap the Alignment Plate into the holes provided on the base so that the plate remains extended from the side of the base. Snap the next base onto the remaining pins of the Alignment Plate.
DRAGON™ M SYSTEM AND NETWORK LAYOUTS 3 3 DRAGON™ M SYSTEM AND NETWORK LAYOUTS There are two basic system layouts that can be employed: Stand Alone systems and Multidrop STAR-System™ Networks. 3.1 STAND ALONE LAYOUTS 3.1.1 Single Reader Layout 3.1.2 Multiple Reader Layout In stand alone systems, each cradle is connected to a single Host.
DRAGON™ 3 3.1.3 Multiple Stand Alone Layouts Many stand alone connections can operate in the same physical area without interference, provided all readers and cradles in the system have different addresses.
DRAGON™ M SYSTEM AND NETWORK LAYOUTS 3.1.4 3 C-Box Layout In this layout the OM-DRAGON™ cradle is connected by a dedicated cable using the RS232 interface to a C-Box connection box as part of a fixed scanner network. This allows the flexibility of a hand-held reading station integrated into a variety of fixed scanning applications so that all readers (both fixed and hand-held), in the system provide communications to the Host.
DRAGON™ 3 3.2 MULTIDROP STAR-SYSTEM™ NETWORK LAYOUTS Even though many stand alone systems can operate in the same physical area without interfering with each other, it may be desirable to bridge data from multiple cradles in a network to a single Host. Each OM-DRAGON™ cradle is designed to connect with other cradles in order to build an RS485 Multidrop cradle network that is STARSystem™ compatible. This network provides seamless active roaming for any RF reading device in the system. 3.2.1 A. B. C. D.
DRAGON™ M SYSTEM AND NETWORK LAYOUTS 3.2.2 A. B. C. D. 3 OM-DRAGON™ Master Layout Host OM-DRAGON™ Master cradle OM-DRAGON™ Slave cradles STARGATE™ base station Example Multidrop STAR-System™ Network with OM-DRAGON™ as Master In this layout an OM-DRAGON™ cradle acts as the Master. The Host is connected to the OM-DRAGON™ Master using any one of the multi-standard interfaces (RS232, WEDGE, or PEN Emulation). The Master is then connected to the slaves in the RS485 network.
DRAGON™ 3 3.2.3 Master OM-DRAGON™ Network Troubleshooting Two diagnostic strings can be sent via RS232 from the Host to the Master cradle in order to have feedback about the network itself. #+LSlave Returns a list of all the Slaves recognized at boot up. Example: In a network where the Master cradle has address 0188 and one Slave cradle with address 0001, the response is: 188 1 #+Alive Executes a continuous Alive request to the slave xxxx in order to monitor the performance of the connection.

Each key stroke corresponds to a double blinking of the green LED.
DRAGON™ 5 5.4.3 Address Stamping It is possible to include the reader and cradle addresses in the message sent to the host. The Reader Address Stamping and the Cradle Address Stamping parameters consist of a 4-digit number in the range 0000 to 1999. For message output format, refer to chapter 6. 5.4.4 Address Delimiter The Address Delimiters allow a character to be included to separate the Reader and Cradle Address stamping fields from the next fields in the message.
REFERENCES 5.5 5.5.1 5 POWER SAVE Sleep State This mode allows the µP in the reader to enter a “Sleep” state for minimum power consumption. For D-series readers, this command is only valid when hardware trigger type is selected. Before entering Sleep mode, the following are verified: • • • no commands coming from Host no data being transmitted to Host Enter Sleep Timeout ended (see par.5.5.2) To exit Sleep mode press the trigger.
DRAGON™ 5 5.6.3 Reads per Cycle In general, a reading cycle corresponds to the ON + OFF times of a device. The resulting effects of this parameter on code reading depend on other related configuration conditions. Here are the definitions of ON and OFF times. • For readers using the software trigger parameter (FLASH MODE), a reading cycle corresponds to the flash on + flash off times. Code reading takes place during the flash on time.
REFERENCES 5.7 DECODING PARAMETERS CAUTION 5.7.1 5 These parameters are intended to enhance the decoding capability of the reader for particular applications. Used incorrectly, they can degrade the reading performance or increase the possibility of a decoding error. Ink-Spread The ink-spread parameter allows the decoding of codes which are not perfectly printed because the page texture tends to absorb the ink. 5.7.
DRAGON™ 5 5.8.2 Power-Off Timeout If this command is enabled, after the desired timeout in hours, the DRAGON™ batteries are disconnected and all power consumption ceases. To restore power, press the trigger once. The reader will now be ready to read codes. Power-off does not effect configuration parameters. 5.8.3 Transmission Mode This parameter determines whether the reader receives responses or messages from the Host or not. In One-Way tx mode, neither Host nor cradle responds to the reader.
REFERENCES 5.8.4 5 Beeper Control for Radio Response For M-Series readers, the data entry good read tone normally results in two beeps; the first indicates that the reader has decoded the code, the second indicates whether OM-DRAGON has received the data. This can be changed according to the following selections: ♦ Normal: both good decode and good reception are signaled (two beeps). ♦ Only Good Decode: only the first beep indicating a good read is signaled.
DRAGON™ 5 5.8.6 Batch Mode This Operating Mode allows storing read codes in the internal gun memory. The stored codes are transmitted to the base station at a later time according to the type of batch mode selected. Batch mode can be enabled either manually (normal batch mode) or automatically. Normal batch mode temporarily suspends radio communication between gun and base station allowing codes to be stored in the gun on a FIFO basis.
REFERENCES 5 The code which has a transmission pending is shown on the display in reverse video indicating that it cannot be deleted. The selection of batch mode in EEPROM provides the advantage of permanently saving data in the EEPROM to avoid losing them if for example the batteries run down. The RAM selection allows more data to be saved and is transmitted more quickly to the base station.

REFERENCES 5 5.11 CONFIGURATION COPYING COMMANDS 5.11.1 Copy DRAGON D-Series Procedure: Connect the master (correctly configured reader) and the slave (reader to be configured) together through two RS232 serial interface cables and external power supply. Accessory cables and power supply are available from your Datalogic distributor to provide this connection.
DRAGON™ 5 5.11.2 Copy DRAGON M-Series Procedure: Using the slave reader and its OM-DRAGON™ cradle, follow the initialization procedure in chapter 4 of this manual or from the Quick Reference Manual. With the master DRAGON M (correctly configured reader), read the Copy Configuration barcode below. Then place it onto an OM-DRAGON™ cradle within 10 seconds. The reader will beep indicating the configuration has been copied.
REFERENCES 5.11.3 5 Copy OM-DRAGON™ Procedure: Using the slave reader and its OM-DRAGON™ cradle, read the Restore Default barcode, set the radio address, and then read the RS232 interface barcode from chapter 4 of this manual or from the Quick Reference Manual. Connect the master OM-DRAGON™ and the slave OM-DRAGON™ (cradle to be configured) together through two RS232 serial interface cables and external power supply.
DRAGON™ 5 5.12 C-DRAGON™ CONFIGURATION It is possible to configure the C-DRAGON™ battery charger for the particular battery installed in the DRAGON™ M reader. Selecting the proper battery type increases battery charging efficiency and decreases the time necessary for complete charging. 1.
MESSAGE FORMATTING 6 6 MESSAGE FORMATTING The system always provides gun to host data communication using the following message formatting: Output Message from DRAGON™ D or DRAGON™ M Stand Alone Towards Host [Header] [Gun_Addr] [Gun_Addr_delimiter] ] [Cradle_Addr] [Cradle_Addr_delimiter] [Time stamp] [Ts_delimiter] [Code ID] [Code Length] CODE [Terminator] [Items in square brackets are optional.
DRAGON™ 6 • If you have not enabled the Gun Address Stamping or the Gun Address Delimiter, you must not specify them. In this case all messages will be implicitly addressed to the 'binded' gun of the cradle directly connected to the serial line. • The gun can only receive messages only if two-way mode is enabled. (See par. 5.8.3, “Transmission Mode”, command is on page 130). • Messages cannot start with '$+' because they would be interpreted as a configuration command.
MESSAGE FORMATTING 6 are written to: the current one and the one below it. You will need two ESC E commands to step from one row to the next when using the large font. • The cursor column position is affected by the currently selected font. Therefore, column 6 is 36 pixels from the left border only if you last selected the 6x8 font; otherwise it could be 48 or 72 pixels from the left border. 6.1.2 Font Selection ESC [ 0 m ESC [ 7 m ESC # 4 ESC # 5 ESC # 7 6.1.

MESSAGE FORMATTING 6.2 6 MESSAGES FROM GUN COMMAND KEYS The DRAGON™ M series guns with display have 3 command keys that can each be associated with a character to send to the host. By pressing the keys on the gun, the associated character with its relative message formatting is sent to the Host. For example, keys can be used to select items from a menu sent to the gun display by the application program.
