Introduction

This guide provides basic instructions for setting up, programming, and using DS4608-HC scanners.

Features

Presentation Mode

Connect a USB Host Interface

The scanner automatically detects the host interface type and uses the default setting.

Useful Barcodes

NOTE : An asterisk(*) indicates the default setting.

Set Defaults

Add a Tab Key

To add a Tab key after scanned data, scan the barcode below.

Add an Enter Key (Carriage Return/Line Feed)

To add an Enter key after scanned data, scan the barcode below.

USB Caps Lock Override

Night Mode with Vibrate

Picklist Mode

Picklist Mode enables you to pick out and decode a barcode from a group of barcodes that are printed close together by placing the aiming pattern on the barcode you want to decode.

ISBT Blood Bag Concatenation

Select an option for concatenating pairs of ISBT code types:

• Enable ISBT Concatenation (default) – Two ISBT barcodes are required for decode.
• Disable ISBT Concatenation – ISBT barcodes are decoded as individual barcodes.
• Autodiscriminate ISBT Concatenation – If a pair of ISBT barcodes is present, the scanner concatenates. Or else, a single barcode is transmitted.

Hands-Free Mode

Scan one of the following barcodes to enable or disable the Hands-free mode.

• Enable Hands-free Mode (default) – When the scanner is in the presentation cradle or lntellistand, it turns the illumination on slightly to detect the presence of a barcode and automatically triggers when a barcode is detected. Lifting the scanner causes it to behave according to the setting of the Hand-Held Trigger Mode.
• Disable Hands-free Mode – The scanner behaves according to the setting of the Hand-Held Trigger Mode whether or not it is in a cradle or lntellistand. The illumination only turns on when the scanner is lifted or when the trigger is pulled, depending on which Hand-Held Trigger Mode is selected.
