Connecting the Scanner When Powered by Host
(Keyboard Wedge)
A scanner can be connected between the keyboard and PC as a “keyboard
wedge,” plugged into the serial port, or connected to a portable data terminal in
wand emulation or non decoded output mode. The following is an example of a
keyboard wedge connection:
1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer.
2. Disconnect the keyboard cable from the
back of the terminal/computer.
3. Connect the appropriate
interface cable to the
scanner and to the terminal/
computer.
4. Turn the terminal/computer
power back on. The scanner will beep twice.
5. Verify the scanner operation by scanning a bar code from the back cover of
this manual. The scanner will beep once.

Mounting Information, continued
Specular Zone
The 3900 must be mounted at a 5 degree, or greater, angle to the bar code in
order to scan properly:
The scanner is now connected and ready to communicate with your terminal/PC.
You must program the scanner for your interface before bar code data can be
transmitted to your terminal/PC. If you are using the scanner as a keyboard
wedge, turn to page 2-1. If the scanner is connected via a serial port, turn to
page 2-8. If this is a wand emulation application, turn to page 2-15, and for a non
decoded output connection, turn to page 6-2.
Plug and Play
Plug and Play bar codes provide instant scanner set up for commonly used
interfaces.
Note: After you scan one of the codes, power cycle the host terminal to have the
interface in effect.
The most common interface is Keyboard Wedge. The following Keyboard
Wedge bar code also programs a carriage return (CR) suffix.

In Wand Emulation mode, the scanner decodes the bar code then sends data in
the same format as a wand scanner. The Same Code format transmits UPC,
EAN, Code 128 and Interleaved 2 of 5 bar codes without any changes, but
converts all other symbologies to Code 39.
The following Wand Emulation bar code sets the interface to Wand Emulation
mode and translates bar code data as Code 39 symbology. It also programs the
Transmission Rate to 25 inches per second, and Output Polarity to black high.
Note: For the 3800PDF model: When the 3800PDF interface is set to wand
emulation, all PDF417 bar code data is transmitted as Code 128. Data
from other symbologies follow the rules described above.

Serial Port Connection
All communication parameters between the scanner and terminal must match for
correct data transfer through the serial port using RS-232 protocol. Scanning the
RS-232 interface bar code, programs the scanner for an RS-232 interface at
9600 baud, even parity, 7 data bits, 1 stop bit (8 bit data), and adds a suffix of a
CR LF.
1. Turn off power to the terminal/computer.
2. Connect the appropriate interface cable to
the scanner.
Note: For the scanner to work properly, you
must have the correct cable for your type
of terminal/computer.
3. Plug the serial connector into the serial port
on the back of your computer/terminal, as shown below. Tighten the two
screws to secure the connector to the port.
4. Plug the power pack into a power source.

Wand Emulation Connection
In Wand Emulation mode, the scanner decodes the bar code then sends data in
the same format as a wand scanner. The Code 39 Format converts all
symbologies to Code 39. The Same Code Format transmits UPC, EAN, Code
128 and Interleaved 2 of 5 without any changes, but converts all other
symbologies to Code 39. These codes set the transmission rate to 25 inches per
second and the output polarity to black, high. Default = Code 39 Format.

Scan Rate
Adjusting the scan rate changes the current draw when scanning. The slower
the scan rate, the lower the current draw. (The standby current remains the
same.) Scan speeds are 270 s/s, 135 s/s, and 67 s/s. A scan speed of 270
draws the highest power and has the best performance. A scan speed of 135
has a medium draw with medium performance. A scan speed of 67 draws the
lowest power and has the lowest performance. Default = 270 s/s.

Trigger Mode
Manual/Serial Trigger:
You can activate the scanner either by pressing the
trigger, or using a serial trigger command (see "Trigger Commands" on page 12-
4). When in manual trigger mode, the scanner scans until a bar code is read, or
until the trigger is released.
When in serial mode, the scanner scans until a bar code has been read or until
the deactivate command is sent. In serial mode, the scanner can also be set to
turn itself off after a specified time has elapsed (see Serial Trigger Time Out,
which follows). Default for 3800 .

Serial Trigger Time Out:
Use this selection to set a time out (in quarter
seconds) of the scanner’s trigger when using serial commands to trigger the
scanner. Once the scanner has timed out, it must be triggered again either
serially or manually. After scanning the Serial Trigger Time Out bar code, set the
time out duration (from 0-1200 quarter seconds) by scanning digits from the
inside back cover, then scanning Save. Default = 0 (infinite, or no time out).
Manual Trigger, Low Power:
The scanner “sleeps,” using only 30 milliamps,
until the trigger is pulled. When the trigger is pulled, the scanner wakes up and
operates at reduced power until there is no triggering for the time set with the Low
Power Time Out bar code. There is a short delay in operation when the scanner
is first triggered, but there is no delay when operating in low power mode.
Note: Manual Trigger, Low Power cannot be used with keyboard wedge
applications.
Low Power Time Out:
Scan the Low Power Time Out bar code to change the
time out duration. Then scan the time out duration (from 0-300 seconds) from
the inside back cover, and Save. Default = 2 minutes.
Note: If you make an error while scanning the digits (before scanning Save),
scan Discard on the back cover, scan the Lower Power Time Out bar
code, scan the correct digits, then Save again.
Automatic Trigger:
The scanner scans continuously at full power. Default for
3900.

Data Editing
Prefix/Suffix Overview
When a bar code is scanned, additional information is sent to the host computer
along with the bar code data. This group of bar code data and additional,
user-defined data is called a “message string.” The selections in this section are
used to build the user-defined data into the message string.
Prefix and Suffix characters are data characters that can be sent before and after
scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all symbologies, or
only with specific symbologies. The following illustration shows the breakdown
of a message string:
Points to Keep In Mind
• It is not necessary to build a message string. The selections in this chapter
are only used if you wish to alter the default settings. Default prefix = None.
Default suffix = None.
• A prefix or suffix may be added or cleared from one symbology or all
symbologies.
• You can add any prefix or suffix from the ASCII chart (page 4-6 ), plus Code
I.D. and Aim I.D.
• You can string together several entries for several symbologies at one time.
• Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to appear on
the output.
To Add a Prefix or Suffix:
Step 1. Scan the Add Prefix or Add Suffix symbol (page 4-4).
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (page 4-5)
for the symbology to which you want to apply the prefix or suffix.

Step 3. Scan the 2 hex digits from the Programming Chart inside the back
cover or scan 9 9, for all symbologies.
Step 4. Determine the hex value from the Decimal to Hex to ASCII Conversion
Chart (page 4-6) for the prefix or suffix you wish to enter.
Step 5. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back
cover.
Step 6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 for every prefix or suffix character.
Step 7. To add the Code I.D., scan 5 C 8 0, , , .
To add AIM I.D., scan 5, C, 8, 1.
To add a backslash (\), scan 5 C 5 C, , , .
Step 8. Scan Save to exit and save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.
Repeat Steps 1-6 to add a prefix or suffix for another symbology.
Example: Add a Suffix to a specific symbology
To send a CR (carriage return)Suffix for UPC only:
Step 1. Scan Add Suffix.
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit hex value from the Symbology Chart (page 4-5)
for UPC.
Step 3. Scan 6, 3 from the Programming Chart (inside back cover).
Step 4. Determine the hex value from the Decimal to Hex to ASCII Conversion
Chart (page 4-6) for the CR (carriage return).
Step 5. Scan 0, D from the Programming Chart (inside back cover).
Step 6. Scan Save, or scan Discard to exit without saving.
To Clear One or All Prefixes or Suffixes:
You can clear a single prefix or suffix, or clear all prefixes/suffixes for a
symbology. When you Clear One Prefix (Suffix), the specific character you
select is deleted from the symbology you want. When you Clear All Prefixes
(Suffixes), all the prefixes or suffixes for a symbology are deleted.
Step 1. Scan the Clear One Prefix or Clear One Suffix symbol.
Step 2. Determine the 2 digit Hex value from the Symbology Chart (page 4-5)
for the symbology from which you want to clear the prefix or suffix.
Step 3. Scan the 2 digit hex value from the Programming Chart inside the back
cover or scan 9 9, for all symbologies.
Your change is automatically saved.

Data Formatting
Data Format Editor Introduction
The Data Format Editor selections are used to edit scanned data. For example,
you can use the Data Format Editor to insert characters at certain points in bar
code data as it is scanned. It is not necessary to use the Data Format Editor. A
set of defaults for the data format is already programmed in the scanner. The
selections in the following pages are used only if you wish to alter the default
settings. Default Data Format setting = None.
Normally, when you scan a bar code, it gets outputted automatically; however
when you do a format, you must use a “send” command (see Send Commands
on page 5-2) within the format program to output data.
Multiple formats may be programmed into the imager. They are stacked in the
order in which they are entered. However, the following list presents the order
in which formats are applied:
1. Specific Term ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length
2. Specific Term ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length
3. Specific Term ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length
4. Specific Term ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length
5. Universal Term ID, Actual Code ID, Actual Length
6. Universal Term ID, Actual Code ID, Universal Length
7. Universal Term ID, Universal Code ID, Actual Length
8. Universal Term ID, Universal Code ID, Universal Length
If you have changed data format settings, and wish to clear all formats and return
to the defaults, scan the Default Data Format code on page 5-4.
To Add a Data Format
Step 1. Scan the Enter Data Format symbol (page 5-4).
Step 2. Primary/Alternate Format
Determine if this will be your primary data format, or one of 3 alternate
formats. (Alternate formats allow you “single shot” capability to scan
one bar code using a different data format. After the one bar code has
been read, the scanner reverts to the primary data format. See page 5-
5.) If you are programming the primary format, scan 0. If you are pro-
gramming an alternate format, scan 1 2, , or 3, depending on the alter-
nate format you are programming.
Step 3. Terminal Type
Refer to the Supported Terminals Chart (page 2-3) and locate the Ter-
minal ID number for your PC. Scan three numeric bar codes on the
inside back cover to program the scanner for your terminal ID (you must
enter 3 digits). For example, scan 0 0 3 for an AT wedge.

an ASCII code, see Decimal to Hex to ASCII Conversion chart, page 4-6.)
FC Disables suppress filter and clear all suppressed characters.
Syntax = FC
.
E4 Replaces up to 15 characters in the data string with user specified charac-
ters. Replacement continues until the E5 command is encountered.
Syn-
tax = E4nnxx1xx2yy 1
yy2...zz1zz2
where nn is the total count of both
characters to be replaced plus replacement characters; xx
1 defines charac-

5 - 4 3800/3900 User’s Guide
ters to be replaced and xx2 defines replacement characters, continuing
through zz1 and zz2.
E5 Terminates character replacement.
Syntax = E5
.
FE Compare character in current cursor position to the character “xx.” If char-
acters are equal, increment cursor. If characters are not equal, no format
match.
Syntax = FExx
(xx stands for the hex value for an ASCII code, see
Decimal to Hex to ASCII Conversion chart, page 4-6.)
EC Check to make sure there is an ASCII number at the current cursor position.
If character is not numeric, format is aborted.
Syntax = EC
.
ED Check to make sure there is a non-numeric ASCII character at the current
cursor position. If character is numeric, format is aborted.
Syntax = ED

Secondary Interface
By switching interface cables, the 3800/3900 scanner can communicate with a
portable data terminal (secondary interface), in addition to the host terminal
(primary interface).
Note: Secondary interfaces do not apply to the 3800XX-15.
The secondary interface can be programmed at any time.
Secondary Code 39 Wand Emulation
In Wand Emulation mode, the scanner decodes the bar code then sends data in
the same format as a wand scanner. The Code 39 Format converts all
symbologies to Code 39. The Same Code Format transmits UPC, EAN, Code
128 and Interleaved 2 of 5 without any changes, but converts all other
symbologies to Code 39. These codes set the transmission rate to 25 inches per
second and the output polarity to black, high. Default = Code 39 Format.
Note for the 3800PDF model: When the 3800PDF interface is set to wand
emulation, all PDF417 bar code data is transmitted as Code 128. Data from
other symbologies follow the rules described above.
Secondary RS-232 Connection
All communication parameters between the scanner and terminal must match for
correct data transfer through the serial port using RS-232 protocol.
RS-232 programmable selections are used by both the primary and secondary
interfaces. Changing an RS-232 parameter (e.g., baud rate or parity), while in
primary or secondary mode will affect both interfaces.

Non Decoded Laser Emulation Idle
The idle describes the state of the scanner when no data is being transmitted.
When in Non Decoded mode, you must set the scanner’s idle state to match the
idle state for the device to which the scanner is connected. Default = High.
Disabling the Secondary Interface
You can temporarily disable the secondary interface, but still retain the
secondary interface settings in the scanner’s memory by scanning the Disable
bar code below. To re-enable the secondary interface, scan the Enable bar
code. Default =Disable.
Secondary Trigger Mode
Manual Trigger:
You must press the scanner trigger to scan. When not
scanning, idle power is maintained. Default = Manual Trigger.

* High
* Disable

Automatic Trigger:
The scanner scans continuously at full power.
Manual Trigger, Low Power:
The scanner “sleeps,” using only 30 milliamps,
until the trigger is pulled. When the trigger is pulled, the scanner wakes up and
operates at normal power until there is no triggering for the time set with the Low
Power Time Out bar code. Then, the scanner goes to “sleep” again.
Low Power Time Out:
Scan the Low Power Time Out bar code to change the
time out duration. Then scan the time out duration (from 0-300 seconds) from
the inside back cover and Save. Default = 2 minutes.
Note: If you make an error while scanning the digits (before scanning Save),
scan Discard on the back cover, scan the Low Power Time Out bar code,
scan the correct digits, and Save again.
Note: The Secondary Manual Trigger, Lower Power option is not available on
the 3800XX-11 and 3800 Non-Decoded Out Laser XX-11E in Secondary
Emulation Mode.

Message Length Description
You are able to set the valid reading length of some of the bar code symbologies.
If the data length of the scanned bar code doesn’t match the valid reading length,
the imager will issue an error beep. You may wish to set the same value for
minimum and maximum length to force the imager to read fixed length bar code
data. This helps reduce the chances of a misread.
EXAMPLE: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 9-20 characters.
Min. length = 09 Max. length = 20
EXAMPLE: Decode only those bar codes with a count of 15 characters.
Min. length = 15 Max. length = 15
For a value other than the minimum and maximum message length defaults,
scan the bar codes included in the explanation of the symbology, then scan the
digit value of the message length and Save bar codes on the Programming Chart
inside the back cover of this manual. The minimum and maximum lengths and
the defaults are included with the respective symbologies.
