Chapter 2. Getting Started the BHT-5000 and System Mode Chapter 2 Getting Started the BHT-5000 and System Mode This chapter summarizes the BHT-5000 system configuration and describes the operation including preparation and System Mode (which is required for the efficient use of application programs). 2.1 BHT-5000 System Configuration ............................................................................................................ 8 2.2 Components and Functions ................................
2.1 BHT-5000 System Configuration As shown in the system configuration below, it is necessary to prepare not only the BHT-5000 Bar Code Handy Terminal (which reads bar codes and accepts keypad entry) but also the following hardware: • Host computer: Allows you to edit, manage and download programs and data, as well as downloading extension programs. • CU-5000: Exchanges programs and data with the BHT-5000 optically and with the host computer via the RS-232C interface.
Chapter 2. Getting Started the BHT-5000 and System Mode ■ CU-5000 and RS-232C Interface Cable The CU-5000 is an optical communications unit which exchanges data and programs with the BHT-5000 optically and with the host computer via the RS-232C interface cable. You may directly connect two BHT-5000s with each other by using a commercially available metal cable having 3-pole mini stereo plugs (as a direct-connect interface cable).
Flash ROM and RAM A flash ROM and RAM are mounted on the BHT-5000. The flash ROM stores factory-written System Program and JIS Level 1 & Level 2 fonts. You can download extension programs, user programs, and user data to either or both of the flash ROM and RAM. ■ RAM Programs and data stored in the RAM are backed up by a lithium battery integrated in the BHT-5000. If the battery voltage level drops below the specified level, the RAM cannot retain its contents so that the stored files may be damaged.
Chapter 2. Getting Started the BHT-5000 and System Mode Software Structure System Program and JIS Level 1 & Level 2 fonts are resident in the system area of the flash ROM. To use extension programs and user programs, you should download the program files into the user area (of the flash ROM or RAM). Prior to executing user programs, it is necessary to prepare a data file. The data files will be stored in the user area (of the flash ROM or RAM).
■ JIS Level 1 and Level 2 Fonts These are font data required for displaying Kanji characters on the LCD. The BHT-5000 has no Kanji ROM, so it stores these Kanji fonts in the flash ROM. ■ Extension Programs These programs extend the system programs by adding new functions which cannot be handled by the ordinary system. To download the desired extension program in the BHT-BASIC Extension Library, use Transfer Utility (option).
Chapter 2. Getting Started the BHT-5000 and System Mode 2.2 Components and Functions • Reading confirmation LED Illuminates in green when the BHT has successfully read the bar codes. Bar-code reading window • Trigger switch Press this switch to start bar-code reading. • Liquid crystal display (LCD) Shows the characters and graphic patterns. • Connector cover Inside this cover is the directconnect interface port. • Release button Press this button to remove the battery cartridge.

Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 Chapter 3 Communications Operations of BHT-5000 This chapter describes the communications operations of the BHT-5000--the RS-232C interface specifications, the basic communications specifications, and the BHT-protocol--for data transmission with the host computer or other devices. 3.1 RS-232C Interface Specifications .................................................................................... 70 3.1.1 For CU-5000 ................................
3.1 RS-232C Interface Specifications 3.1.1 For CU-5000 [ 1 ] Interface Connector and Pin Assignment The CU-5000 has an RS-232C interface port (Dsub-25S). 13 1 25 14 RS-232C interface port (Dsub-25S) on the CU-5000 ■ CU-5001 Pin No. Signal 2 3 4 5 7 20 SD RD RS CS SG ER Functions Signal Input/Output CU-5001 External device Send data Receive data Request to send Ready to send Signal ground Data terminal equipment ready → ← → ← — → Pins 1 (FG), 6 (DR), and 8 (CD) are not connected.
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 [ 2 ] Interface Cable Connection As illustrated below, connect the CU-5000 (which is joined with the BHT-5000) to a host computer with a cross-mode cable. To connect it to a modem, use a straight-mode cable.
NOTE The CU-5002 generates its internally consumed power by way of the signals sent by the connected host computer, the modem, or other devices. Shown below is a diagram of the internal connection in the CU-5002. Host computer, modem, or other devices CU-5002 Signal Name Pin No. FG 1 SD 2 RD 3 RS 4 CS 5 DR 6 ER 20 CD 8 SG 7 Optical Interface Not used.
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 3.1.2 For BHT-5000 [ 1 ] Interface Connector and Pin Assignment The BHT-5000 has a direct-connect interface port which is connectable to the 3-pole mini stereo plug (ø2.5 mm or 0.1") and supports a subset of the RS-232C interface as shown below. Using a direct-connect interface cable having the mini stereo plugs makes it possible to connect the BHT-5000 to a host computer (or another BHT-5000) directly without any routing through the CU-5000.
[ 2 ] Interface Cable Connection Connect the BHT-5000 directly to a host computer, a modem, or a printer with a directconnect interface cable as illustrated below.
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 3.2 Basic Communications Specifications and Parameters 3.2.1 Basic Communications Specifications Listed below are the communications specifications when the BHT-5000 transacts data with a host computer through the CU-5000 (optical interface) or direct-connect interface cable.
■ Transmission Code and Bit Order All characters should be coded to 7- or 8-bit code for data transmission. The standard data exchange code of the BHT-5000 is JIS 7- or 8-bit code. The transmission bit order is LSB (Least significant bit) first. What follows is an example for transmitting character A (41h, 01000001b) coded to JIS 8-level code with an even parity and a single bit each for start and stop bits.
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 ■ RS/CS Control Depending upon whether the RS/CS control is enabled or disabled in System Mode, the BHT-5000 operation will differ as follows: RS/CS Control BHT-5000 Operation Enabled (ON) If the CS signal is ON when the BHT-5000 is ready to send, the BHT-5000 will send data. If it is OFF, the BHT-5000 will wait for the CS signal to go ON until the timeout occurs. When the BHT-5000 becomes ready to receive data, it will turn the RS signal ON.
3.2.2 Communications Parameters In System Mode and user programs written in BHT-BASIC 3.0, you may set the communications parameters listed below. Communications Port Optical interface or direct-connect interface Transmission Speed 300*, 600*, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, or 38400 bps Character Length 7 or 8 bits Vertical Parity Odd, even, or none Stop Bits 1 or 2 bits RS/CS Control Enabled or disabled * The 300 bps and 600 bps are not available in System Mode.
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 3.3 BHT-Protocol 3.3.1 Overview The BHT-protocol is the communications procedure used to transmit files between the BHT-5000 and a host (or between the BHT-5000s). It adopts the response method using ACK/NAK codes. The BHT-protocol is composed of a defined set of the control character sequences including the following three phases: Phase 1: Establishment of data link The sending station confirms that the receiving station is ready to receive data.
3.3.2 Control Characters The control characters are classified into two groups: transmission control characters and text control characters. (1) Transmission control characters The transmission control characters listed below are used to compose transmission control sequences in phases 1 through 3. Symbol Value Meaning Function EOT 04h End Of Transmission Releases a data link (Phase 3). Requests abort of transmission (Phase 2). ENQ 05h Enquiry Requests establishment of a data link (Phase 1).
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 (2) Text control characters The text control characters are used to format transmission texts. In the BHT-protocol, they include the following headers and a terminator. Symbol Value Meaning Function SOH 01h Start Of Heading Indicates the start of heading text (Phase 2). STX 02h Start Of Text Indicates the start of data text (Phase 2). ETX 03h End Of Text Indicates the end of data text (Phase 2).
3.3.3 Basic Format of Transmission Messages Basically, the BHT-5000 transmits data as a unit of a file. First, it transmits a heading text which includes the attribute information of a file (e.g., file name and the number of data texts) to be transmitted. Following the heading text, it transmits the data text in the file. A heading text and data text comprise a text. In actual text transmission, the text is divided into several blocks, and a header and terminator are added to each block.
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 3.3.4 Transmission Control Sequences Shown below is a typical message transmission sequence supported by the BHTprotocol. This sequence example does not include transmission errors or negative responses.
Data transmission may accidentally involve various types of errors. The BHT-protocol is designed to recover from those errors as frequently as possible. What follows is the BHT-protocol for phases 1 through 3. Phase 1: Establishment of Data Link ■ Normal phase 1 The sending station transmits an ENQ to the receiving station. Upon receipt of an ACK from the receiving station, the sending station shifts to phase 2. ENQ Sending station Receiving station ACK To phase 2.
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 ■ Abnormal termination of phase 1 (Abort of phase 1) If the sending station receives no ACK from the receiving station after sending an ENQ 10 times in succession, it sends an EOT to the receiving station after three seconds from the 10th ENQ to terminate the message transmission abnormally.
Phase 2: Data Transmission ■ Normal phase 2 The sending station first sends a transmission block containing the heading text. Each time the sending station receives an ACK from the receiving station, it sends a transmission block containing the data texts as shown below. Upon receipt of an ACK in response to the last transmission block (data text n), the sending station shifts to phase 3. If a transmission message contains no data text, the sending station transmits the heading text only.
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 ■ Phase 2 with NAK If the sending station receives a NAK from the receiving station in response to a transmission block containing text data m, it sends that transmission block again immediately as shown below. If the sending station receives an ACK before receiving a NAK 10 times in succession, it continues the subsequent message transmission.
■ Phase 2 with EOT If the sending station receives an EOT anytime during phase 2, it shifts to phase 3 to terminate the message transmission abnormally. Even if the phase 3 terminates normally, the transmission results in an abnormal end. Receiving station Sending station EOT Occurrence of an error To phase 3.
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 ■ Abnormal termination of phase 2 (Abort of phase 2) If the sending station receives no ACK from the receiving station after sending an ENQ nine times in succession, it sends an EOT to the receiving station after 3 seconds from the 9th ENQ to terminate this transmission sequence abnormally.
■ Phase 3 with no response or invalid response If the sending station receives no response or any invalid response from the receiving station in response to an EOT sent, it iterates sending of an EOT at threesecond intervals up to ten times. If the sending station receives an ACK before sending an EOT ten times, it terminates the message transmission normally and releases the data link.
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 3.3.5 Aborting Data Transmission Pressing C key aborts data transmission. If C key is pressed during downloading, the BHT-5000 transmits an EOT and aborts the file transmission. If it is pressed during uploading, the BHT-5000 completes the block transmission and then aborts the file transmission.
3.3.6 BCC for Horizontal Parity Checking To check whether data has been transmitted accurately, the BHT-5000 supports horizontal parity checking for every transmission block. In horizontal parity checking, a horizontal parity byte so called BCC (Block Check Character) is suffixed to an ETX of every transmission block.
Chapter 3. Communications Operations of BHT-5000 3.3.7 Text Format Text should be formatted according to the standard of the BHT-protocol before transmission. Shown below are two types of the standard text formats for program files and data files. ■ Program Text Format (1) Heading text Byte position 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 Number of data texts contained (5 bytes) Program file name (12 bytes) Example of contents P R O G 1 .
■ Data Text Format (1) Heading text Number of fields (2 bytes) Length of data field 1 Length of data field n (2 bytes) (2 bytes) Byte position 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 Number of data texts contained (5 bytes) Data file name (12 bytes) Example of contents M A S T E R D A T n 0 0 5 9 2 The number of data texts should be 0 to 32767. If it is less than 5 digits, the upper blank bytes will be filled with zeros (0). 0 6 1 0 Every data field should be 1 to 99 digits long.
