Quick Reference Guide 3 Introduction The DS457 fixed mount imager is specifically designed for standalone applications, and OEM applications such as kiosks. The imager is extremely compact, provides easy and flexible integration of bar code imaging into a host device, and offers high-performance imaging on 1D and 2D bar codes. The DS457 is ideal for embedded medical diagnostic equipment and for conveyor lines in manufacturing environments.
DS457 Fixed Mount Imager Connecting the DS457 To connect the DS457 to a host: 1. Plug the 9-pin D-connector with the end marked SCANNER into the DS457. 2. If using an external switch and applicable host cable, plug the trigger cable into the female stereo connector on the flying lead of the 9pin D-connector. 3. Plug the host side connector into the appropriate port on the host. 4.
Quick Reference Guide 5 Capturing Data When scanning, the imager projects a red laser aiming pattern which allows positioning the bar code within its field of view. If necessary, the imager turns on its red LEDs to illuminate the target bar code. To scan a bar code, center the symbol in any orientation within the aiming pattern. Be sure the entire symbol is within the rectangular area formed by the cross pattern.
DS457 Fixed Mount Imager The imager can also read a bar code presented within the aiming pattern but not centered. The top examples in the following illustration show acceptable aiming options, while the bottom examples can not be decoded. 012345 012345 012345 012345 Upon successful decode, the DS457 beeps and its LED turns green.
Quick Reference Guide 7 Programming Bar Codes Following are some frequently used bar codes for programming the DS457. Set Defaults • Restore Defaults - Scan this bar code to reset all default parameters as follows. - If you previously set custom defaults by scanning Write to Custom Defaults in the Integration Guide, scan Restore Defaults to retrieve and restore the decoder’s custom default settings. - If you did not set custom defaults, scan Restore Defaults to restore the factory default values.

Quick Reference Guide 11 Trigger Modes Presentation (default) When the DS457 detects an object in its field of view, it triggers and attempts to decode. The range of object detection does not vary under normal lighting conditions. This applies to decode mode only. In this mode the unit does not enter Low Power mode.
DS457 Fixed Mount Imager Host A host command issues the triggering signal. The DS457 interprets a trigger press as a level triggering option. Host Motion Enhancement for Presentation Mode Select Disable Motion Enhancement to revert to standard Presentation Mode behavior. Disable Motion Enhancement (Default) Select Enable Motion Enhancement to fine-tune engine and decoder behavior for bar codes moving quickly through the imager’s field of view.
Quick Reference Guide 13 Mobile Phone/Display Mode This mode improves bar code reading performance with target bar codes displayed on mobile phones and electronic displays.
DS457 Fixed Mount Imager Beeper and LED Indications The beeper and LED indicate imager status as follows: Indication Imager is on. Beeper N/A A bar code is successfully 1 beep decoded. LED Red Flash of green A programming parameter Fast warble Flash of was entered successfully. green Transmission error. Bar code data was not received by the host.
Quick Reference Guide 15 Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause Possible Solutions No red LED or nothing happens during a capture attempt. No power to the imager. Check the system power. Confirm that the correct host interface cable is used. Imager cannot read the bar code. Interface/ Secure cable power cables connections. are loose. Connect power supply. Check for loose cable connections. Imager is not Program the imager to programmed read the type of bar code for that bar to be scanned.
