1 Keyboard Manual Card Reader Slot Indicator Lights KP3800B T ouch Mouse Pad INTRODU CTION Input Modes The keyboards have two modes to accept a variety of input devices. A DB-9 type squeeze release port at the upper right hand side of the keyboard supports undecoded (TTL) bar code scanner and RS232 input.
2 Keyboard Manual Connecting RS232 Devices RS232 devices (scale, pole display , scanner , etc.) can be connected to the keyboard scanner port if the RS232 pinout is modified accord- ing to the table on page 57. Follow the steps listed in “Connecting an Undecoded Scanner”, above.
3 Keyboard Manual T ypical Applications Membership services • Shipping and receiving product identification • Inventory control • Industrial control and automated process applications • ID ent.
4 Keyboard Manual Keyboard Configuration Manager software is the simplest and most foolproof way to configure your keyboard settings. KEYBOARD CONFIGURA TION MANAGER Above, from left to right, are the standard Windows icons for “New Document”, Open File”, and “Save File”.
5 Keyboard Manual Click this icon to print a series of bar codes that you can scan to configure your keyboard/scanner/reader to the current KCM set- tings. If printing to a PDF file is an option (via Acrobat), this configu- ration can be sent via e-mail to different locations where they can be scanned from a printed PDF file.
6 Keyboard Manual The screen to the right appears. Click on any of the selections under “Current Settings” to view its “Attributes”. Click the upload icon (see page 4) and the following pop-up.
7 Keyboard Manual Following is a detailed discussion of each of the settings, their attributes, and the effect s each of these will have on data output from your Unitech keyboard.
8 Keyboard Manual Language Y our Unitech keyboard can output characters using eleven different language sets, including: Default is “U.S.” Danish U.
9 Keyboard Manual Keyboard W edge, continued Use Numeric Keyp ad The ASCII code for numeric input from the keypad part of the keyboard is different from that of the upper row of the keyboard proper .
10 Keyboard Manual RS232 The RS232 input characteristics of the keyboard’s scanner port (see page 2) can be modified according to the following four parameters: Baud Rate Baud Rate (bits per second) refers to the speed of the data through the scanner/RS232 port.
11 Keyboard Manual T er minator The T erminator is a command that follows the input of bar code data. Four different terminators can be selected here: “Enter”, “Return (on numeric keypad)”, “Field Exit or Right Control”, or “None”. Alternative terminators (such as T ab) can be be configured via the Postamble function (see page 13).
12 Keyboard Manual Aim Funct ion for Long R ange Engin e The Aim Function causes a laser scanner to output a “pin-point” aiming aid for a specified period of time (see next page) to enable the user to more easily scan distant bar code labels. This function can be toggled on or off.
13 Keyboard Manual Aiming T ime for Long Range Engi ne The Aiming T ime function specifies the duration of the Aim Function (see previous page). Length of duration can be specified from 500ms to 2 seconds, in half-second increments. Default is “1 second”.
14 Keyboard Manual Magnetic Reader The Magnetic S tripe Reader configuration parameters differ from the Scanner Port mainly in that magnetic cards adhere to only one standard defined by ANSI and ISO/IEC, while there are over a dozen different symbologies for bar codes.
15 Keyboard Manual T rack 2 The recording density of T rack 2 is defined as 75 bits per inch. The character configuration (encoding) is 4 bits plus 1 parity (odd) bit, which yields 16 unique characters (10 numeric digits plus 6 symbolic characters :;<=>?).
16 Keyboard Manual T rack 3 The recording density of T rack 3 is defined as 210 bits per inch. The character configuration (encoding) is 4 bits plus 1 parity (odd) bit, which yields 16 unique characters (10 numeric digits plus 6 symbolic characters :;<=>?).
17 Keyboard Manual T er minator The T erminator is a command that follows after the bar code data. Four different terminators can be selected here: “Enter”, “Return (on numeric keypa d)”, “Field Exit or Right Control”, or “None”.
18 Keyboard Manual Magnetic Reader , continued T rack 2 Account Nu mber Only If only track 2 is enabled (see previous page), only the account number from track 2 and the start/stop sentinels are output.
19 Keyboard Manual Magnetic Reader , continued T rack 2 Output Se quence T rack 2 output sequence is arranged in the same manner as the T rack 1 output sequence (above). T rack 2 parameters include: * Note that track 2 does not contain last name and first name data.
20 Keyboard Manual Bar Code Symbologies Modify the output characteristics of 16 of the most popular bar code symbologies in current use. Following are the bar code symbolo- gies and their modifiable parameters. Code 39 Maximum Length defines the maximum length the user will accept for a valid bar code.
21 Keyboard Manual Bar Code Symbologies, continued S t andard 2 of 5 / T oshiba Code Maximum Length defines the maximum length the user will accept for a valid bar code. Default is “48”. • Minimum Length defines the minimum length the user will accept for a valid bar code.
22 Keyboard Manual Bar Code Symbologies, continued Code 32 Enabled toggles the ability for the keyboard/scanner to read Code 32 on or off. Default is “No”. • Code ID is a user-definable identification letter for Code 32, which is referred to in the “Use Code ID” function (see page 1 1).
23 Keyboard Manual Bar Code Symbologies, continued Code 93 Enabled toggles the ability for the keyboard/scanner to read Code 93 on or off. Default is “Y es”. • Code ID is a user-definable identification letter for Code 93, which is referred to in the “Use Code ID” function (see page 1 1).
24 Keyboard Manual Bar Code Symbologies, continued UPC-A Send Check Digit toggles whether or not to send a check digit. Default is “Send”. • Send Leading Digit toggles sending or not sending a leading (“start bar code”) digit. Default is “Send”.
25 Keyboard Manual EAN-8 Send Check Digit toggles whether or not to send a check digit. Default is “Send”. • Send Leading Digit toggles sending or not sending a leading (“start bar code”) digit.
26 Keyboard Manual Bar Code Symbologies, continued Code 1 1 Maximum Length defines the maximum length the user will accept for a valid bar code. Default is “48”. • Minimum Length defines the minimum length the user will accept for a valid bar code.
27 Keyboard Manual Bar Code Symbologies, continued Label Code IV and V • Enabled toggles the ability for the keyboard/scanner to read Label Code IV and V on or off. Default is “No”. Send Check Digit toggles whether or not to send a check digit. Default is “Send”.
28 Keyboard Manual Qualifier The Qualifier section defines the conditions that must be present for the bar code to be modified, such as what type of bar code it must be (Code 39, EAN-13, etc.), what length the bar code must be, or what characters (defined by a match string) the bar code must contain.
29 Keyboard Manual Dat a Editing, continued Delete deletes existing modifier strings. Move Up / Move Down moves the modifiers up and down in relation to each other . The top modifier will be performed first and each one down the list will be performed in se- quence.
30 Keyboard Manual The “Everything Else” Formula If a formula is entered into the Data Editing area, then all scanned bar codes will be evaluated according to this formula. If the scanned bar code does not satisfy the requirements of the Qualifier (see page 28), then no data is output.
31 Keyboard Manual KEY PROGRAMMING 92 of the 104 keys of your KP3700 keyboard (88 of the 100 keys on the KP3800) can be programmed to output characters, macros, or functions that the user defines. One common alternative key re- mapping scheme might be a Dvorak keyboard layout.
32 Keyboard Manual Examples T o Re-Map One Key: In the Key Programming program, click on the letter “T” on the keyboard graphic. The “T” key becomes red and the “Select Modi- fier” area becomes active. Make sure that only “Normal” is checkmarked in the “Select Modifier” area - if it isn’t, then double- click it.
33 Keyboard Manual PROGRAMMING VIA SCANNER INPUT In addition to the Keyboard Configuration Manager software, your Unitech keyboard can also be configured via undecoded (TTL) bar code scanner input. See page 2 for scanner interface requirements. The concept is fairly simple: Parameters are associated together into groups.
