Barcode scanner components
Table 1-1 Barcode scanner components
Components
(1) Light (3) Scan window
(2) Cable release hole (4) Trigger
Hands-free stand
A hands-free stand or an integrated stand is available, depending on model. The stand holds the barcode
scanner at an angle that enables hands-free scanning as well as lets you store the scanner.
When you insert the barcode scanner into the stand, the scan mode is automatically changed to hands-free
mode.
Omnidirectional operation
The barcode scanner is an omnidirectional reader that lets you scan a barcode from any orientation.
▲To read a symbol or capture an image, aim the barcode scanner and pull the trigger.
NOTE: If the barcode scanner is positioned in the barcode reader stand, the scanner automatically
detects a barcode inside the eld of view using magnetic coupling. The scanner then switches the
reading system from trigger mode to autosense mode.
Barcode scanner components 1
Decoding
The barcode scanner decodes all standard 1D (linear) and 2D bar codes, including GS1 DataBar linear codes,
postal codes (China Post), and stacked codes (such as GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked, GS1 DataBar Stacked,
GS1 DataBar, Stacked Omnidirectional). The scanner sends the data stream from a decoded symbol to the
host computer, and then the scanner is available to read another symbol.
Imaging
The barcode scanner can function as a camera by capturing entire images or the image portions of labels,
signatures, and other items. For more information, see the HP Barcode Scanner D-Series Conguration Utility.
2 Chapter 1 Getting started
2 Setting up and using the scanner
Use the following steps to connect the barcode scanner and initiate communication with the host:
1. Connect the cable to the barcode scanner and the host (see Connecting to the host on page 3).
2. Congure the interface (see Conguring the interface on page 6).
3. Program the barcode scanner (see Programming on page 13).

Disconnecting and connecting the cable
To remove the interface cable from the barcode scanner, follow these steps:
1. Insert the end of a straightened paper clip into the release hole on the back of the handle.
2. As you apply pressure, pull out the cable.
TIP: When inserting the cable, make sure that the connector clip is on the same side as the barcode scanner
release hole, and then insert the cable until it clicks into place.
Using the scanner
Aiming system
The barcode scanner captures and decodes barcodes. It is equipped with an internal motion-sensing function,
which activates an intelligent aiming system upon sensing device motion. The aiming system indicates the
eld of view, which you should position over the barcode.
A red beam illuminates the label. The eld of view indicated by the aiming system is smaller the closer the
scanner is to the barcode. Place codes with smaller bars or elements closer to the reader and larger bars or
elements farther from the reader.
A successful read occurs if the aiming system is centered and the entire barcode is within the aiming eld.
Successful reading is signaled by an audible tone plus a good read green spot LED indicator.
The following images show dierent aiming system patterns.

Operating modes
Scan mode
You can set the scanner to operate in one of several scanning modes, as follows:
Trigger Single (default) – This mode is associated with typical handheld barcode scanner operation. When the
trigger is pulled, illumination is turned on, and the scanner attempts to read a label. Scanning is activated
until one of the following occurs:
●The programmable maximum scan on time has elapsed.
●A label is read.
●The trigger is released.
Trigger Pulse Multiple – Scanning begins when the trigger is pulled and continues after the trigger is released
and until the trigger is pulled again or the programmable maximum scan on time has elapsed. Reading a label
does not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout prevents unwanted multiple reads while in this mode.
Trigger Hold Multiple – When the trigger is pulled, scanning starts and the product scans until the trigger is
released or maximum scan on time* has elapsed. Reading a label does not disable scanning. Double Read
Timeout prevents unwanted multiple reads while in this mode.
Always On – The illuminator is always on and the barcode scanner is always ready for code reading. Double
Read Timeout prevents unwanted multiple reads.
Flashing – The barcode scanner illuminator ashes on and o regardless of the trigger status. Code reading
takes place only during the Flash On* time. Double Read Timeout* prevents unwanted multiple reads.
Object Detection – The scanner looks for changes within its eld of view. The aiming pattern is always on to
show the optimum reading area. If a predened amount of movement is detected, white illumination switches
on. Scanning continues until a label is read or maximum scan on time is reached.
*Controlled by Flash On Time and Flash O Time.

Standards and legislation
Standards
Section 508 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) standards was created by the US Access Board to
address access to information and communication technology (ICT) for people with physical, sensory, or
cognitive disabilities. The standards contain technical criteria specic to various types of technologies, as well
as performance-based requirements which focus on functional capabilities of covered products. Specic
criteria cover software applications and operating systems, web-based information and applications,
computers, telecommunications products, video and multimedia, and self-contained closed products.
Mandate 376 – EN 301 549
The EN 301 549 standard was created by the European Union within Mandate 376 as the basis for an online
toolkit for public procurement of ICT products. The standard species the functional accessibility
requirements applicable to ICT products and services, together with a description of the test procedures and
evaluation methodology for each accessibility requirement.
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) from the W3C's Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) helps web
designers and developers create sites that better meet the needs of people with disabilities or age-related
limitations. WCAG advances accessibility across the full range of web content (text, images, audio, and video)
and web applications. WCAG can be precisely tested, is easy to understand and use, and allows web
developers exibility for innovation. WCAG 2.0 has also been approved as ISO/IEC 40500:2012.
WCAG specically addresses barriers to accessing the web experienced by people with visual, auditory,
physical, cognitive, and neurological disabilities, and by older web users with accessibility needs. WCAG 2.0
provides characteristics of accessible content:
●Perceivable (for instance, by addressing text alternatives for images, captions for audio, adaptability of
presentation, and color contrast)
●Operable (by addressing keyboard access, color contrast, timing of input, seizure avoidance, and
navigability)
●Understandable (by addressing readability, predictability, and input assistance)
●Robust (for instance, by addressing compatibility with assistive technologies)
