Manual No. 25-ULGPMU01-01 Series LGP Handheld CCD Scanner Part I General Information The LGP-6125 Series CCD Scanners utilize state-of-the-art imaging technology similar to that found in digital cameras, facsimile machines and video camcorders. The scanner images the bar code label, then converts the digital signals into data the host computer can understand. By capturing the bar code image all at once, the scanner provides fast, highly accurate reading.
Manual No. 25-ULGPMU01-01 Series LGP Handheld CCD Scanner Part II Installation and SetUp This section of the manual contains information on the physical installation of the scanner as well as certain programming options. There is a separate section for each type of interface. Check to see which type of interface your scanner has and turn to that section for information on installing the scanner A.) Installation – Keyboard Wedge Interface A "Y" connection cable is required for installation.
Manual No. 25-ULGPMU01-01 Series LGP Handheld CCD Scanner Reset All Defaults – Keyboard Wedge Interface Our scanners are shipped with factory default settings that represent the settings most commonly used by our customers. In most applications, the scanner will work right out of the box without any need for additional programming. At any time you can return the scanner to the factory default settings.
Manual No. 25-ULGPMU01-01 Series LGP Handheld CCD Scanner Keyboard Wedge and USB options With Keyboard: Use this mode in case a keyboard is connected to the PC wedge Y-cable. The Wedge is only listening in case the computer is booting or the wedge is idle. Without Keyboard: Use this mode in case no keyboard is connected to the PC wedge Y- cable. In some cases, this mode is required when a PC USB keyboard is connected. If this option is enable, the computer detects the wedge as a keyboard.
Manual No. 25-ULGPMU01-01 Series LGP Handheld CCD Scanner Intercharacter Delay for Keyboard Wedge interface The scanner may send data faster than the computer or application program can accept. This is called "keyboard buffer overrun". If data appears to be missing, random read errors occur or the scanner locks up and will not scan, experiment with the various keyboard timing options listed in the menu to follow.
Manual No. 25-ULGPMU01-01 Series LGP Handheld CCD Scanner B.) Installation – RS232 Interface The RS-232 scanner cable is terminated in with a DB9 female connector. An external power supply (+5V DC) may be necessary. There is a power supply jack on the RS-232 connector. Installation is as follows: 1. Plug the scanner into an RS232 serial port (such as COM1) of the host PC. If external power is required, insert external power plug into the jack on the RS-232 connector. 2.
