Electrical Interface Input signals Reset Input The Engine restarts itself after the Reset line is pull low for 100μs and back to high. The LED Pin will go low. The LED Pin will stay low until the Reset Pin is released and power is applied to EM3000. After the initialization, if send-beep option is enabled, the Engine will send power on beeper signal. Trigger Input When the Trigger line is pull low for20 ms, the Engine starts a read. The Engine keeps reading until a successful reading or the line is high.

Software Interface Introduction The simpliest way to interface with EM3000 is to just listen to the serial output from the Engine. Leave the trigger, reset, beeper, and LED signals to the hardware. With proper configuration, the default firmware will send the decoded barcode messages through the serial output. However, if more controls of the Engine are required, the rest of this section describes the software interface with the Engine. nlscan.
PAGE 33
Software Interface Trigger EM3000 for a Reading EM3000 will start a reading when the trigger Pin of the flexible cable is pulled low (hard trigger) or when EM3000 is in the sensor mode and it senses the trigger condition is met (sensor scan). Hard Trigger If the trigger line is connected to an output port of external device, the control software of the external device (Host) can pull the line low. The Engine will start to read barcode after 10 ms. The engine will keep reading until it read a barcode.
PAGE 34
Software Interface Serial Port Communication This section introduces the serial communication. The default serial port configuration is baud rate of 9600, 8 data bits, no parity bit, and 1 stop bit. It is important to match the serial port configuration between EM3000 and the Host. Both EM3000 and Host can initiate communication. Here are some conventions used in this section: 0xHH A hexadecimal number. For example, 0xAB and 0x1234 are hexadecimal values of 171 and 4660, respectively.
PAGE 35
Software Interface Barcode Message The message upload format is in binary. It is the binary value of the decoded barcode value including prefix, suffix, and so on. There are three methods to determine the end of barcode message. Method 1: LED Signal If a valid reading is found, the default function is to send a PMW signal to BUZ line and the decoded barcode message will be sent through the serial out line.

Software Interface Host Initiated Commands Host can initiate following commands. 1. Are-You-There Command This command is to query RS232 connection between the Host and EM3000. Host Command ‘?’ (or 0x3F) EM3000 Reply ‘!’ (or 0x21) 2. Pro CMD Commands This set of commands are to configure the Engine. To confirm that a command is properly executed, use query command to retrieve the actual value in EM3000. 2.1.

Programming the Engine Introduction There are 3 ways to program (configure) the Engine, Code Programming, Command Programming, and QuickSet Programming. Code Programming The Engine reads a set of specially encoded barcodes to program features. In the following sections, we will explain the options and features available and provide the barcodes to program them. This method of programming the Engine is most straight forward. However, it requires manually readings of each barcode.

Programming the Engine Reading Mode Tools » Hand-held Mode: Pull and keep holding the trigger line to read. Complete one reading or release the trigger to terminate reading status. » Auto Mode: The ambient luminance change in front of the engine automatically initiates reading. After completion of reading, the engine goes to idle. Both luminance change and the Trigger can initiate reading when idle. Code Programming ON Code Programming OFF » Continuous Mode: Pull the Trigger line low to start reading.
PAGE 52
Programming the Engine Reading Timeout and Delay Tools One Reading Timeout：If the engine doesn't read any barcode during the timeout period, it will stop reading automatically. One Reading Timeout is valid in Auto mode. The default timeout is 3000ms. Same Barcode Reading Delay：It is used to avoid misreading on the same barcode (the same format and message) in a Same Barcode Reading Delay Time. It is valid only in Auto mode. The default delay is 1500ms.

PAGE 58
RS232 Interface Serial Port Tools The engine and the Host should use the same serial port parameters: baud rate, parity check, data bits and stop bits. The sequence is as follows: 9600 (baud rate), null (parity check), 8 (data bits), 1 (stop bits). Code Programming ON Baud Rate Baud rate is the number of bits of data transmitted per second. Set your scan engine baud rate to match the baud rate setting of the Host device. Otherwise, they can not communicate.

Message Interception & Pack Introduction Barcode message could divide information into different sections, such as product ID, manufacture ID, and so on. They are important overall. However, at certain situations, some of them are not of interest. This is where message interception comes in. Message interception feature allows transmission of selected section(s). Message intercept only applies to “raw” barcode messages.

Message Interception & Pack Message Interception Tools Interception Rule No.1: It only intercepts selected symbols’ raw barcode messages and it effects all barcodes of the barcode format. Interception Rule No.2: There are maximum 3 interception options restored in the non-volatile memory. If more than 3 are programmed, the last 3 are stored. For example, if there are 4 options are programmed in the order of Code 128，Code 39，QR Code, and UPC-A and “Save”.
