Tera 6900 1D Handheld Barcode Scanner

Preface

Thank you for buying this barcode scanner from Tera. Before using the barcode scanner; please read the instructions carefully and do not arbitrarily scan the setting codes. Otherwise, some functions may be turned on or off unintentionally.

How to use this scanner

1. Connect the computer USB interface, the buzzer prompts, and the indicator light at the top of the scanner is always on, so if they both trigger; it means the connection was successful.
2. Open any document and enable the editing state. You must first confirm that the cursor is displayed. After doing so, press the button to start scanning the code without installing a driver.
3. There will be a buzzer sound when the code is scanned successfully, and the corresponding content of the code will be displayed in the document.
4. For more functions, please refer to the setting codes in the manual.
5. If you have any questions or concerns about the operation of the scanner, please contact us at the following email address: service@tera-digital.com
   ( Please indicate the scanner model number or the order number; describe the problem you encountered and/or attach a video of the malfunction.)

• Restore Factory Default
  If the scanner fails to operate due to improper configurations or other reasons, scan this barcode to restore it to factory settings.

• Scanning Mode Setting
  Trigger Mode: Hold the trigger button to scan, then release the trigger to end the scan. The red scan light will only show up when you press the button.

• Delay Mode: After reading a barcode, if the key has not been released, you can continue scanning.

• Single-Click Mode: The difference between single-click mode and normal manual mode is that you only need to click the button to read the barcode, instead of pressing the button continuously.

• Continuous Scanning Mode: Scan barcodes automatically without pulling the trigger button, as the scanner works continuously.

• Automatic Scanning Mode with Smart Stand: When the scanner is placed on the bracket, the scanner will automatically turn on the automatic sensing function within a few seconds. After leaving the bracket, the scanner will automatically return to the trigger mode within a few seconds.

• Volume Setting

• Tune Setting

• USB Device Type
  The default is “HID Emulation Keyboard”. Since most devices have integrated USB HID device drivers, there is no need to install additional software to use this scanner.
  Note: If you want to use the USB interface to emulate the serial port, you need to install the Virtual COM Driver provided by the manufacturer

Prefix and Suffix Setting

Add Prefix

The prefix setting includes two components: one is whether to enable the prefix character, and the other is the content of the prefix character. The prefix of the barcode can be any ASCII character ranging from 0 to 8 digits. Please set and enable the prefix as follows:

1. Start setting prefix.
2. According to the content to be added, refer to the “ASCII Code Character Table” and scan the corresponding setting codes to the custom the preffix. Each character corresponds to 2 hexadecimal numbers, for example, “AB” corresponds to “41 42”.
3. Scan the “End Parameter Input” setting. If you hear “Du-Di”, the setup has successed.
4. Scan the “Enable Prefix” setting barcode to complete adding prefix.

Clear Added Prefix

Add Suffix

Please set and enable the suffix as follows:

1. Scan the barcode “Start setting suffix”.
2. According to the content to be added, refer to the “ASCII Code Character Table” and scan the corresponding setting codes to the custom the suffix. Each character corresponds to 2 hexadecimal numbers, for example, “AB” corresponds to “41 42”.
3. Scan the “End Parameter Input” setting. If you hear “Du-Di”, the setup has successed.
4. Scan the “Enable Suffix” setting barcode to complete adding suffix.

Clear Added Suffix

Insert String Setting

Users can insert one or two strings: G1 and G2, with a range of 0-16 characters in the appropriate position of the barcode data according to their needs (the length of 0 means an empty string). G1 and G2 can be inserted into any position of barcode characters of a specific barcode type, or into any position of barcode characters of all barcode types. G1 and G2 must be set separately (when G2 is set to a null character, it means that only one string G1 has been inserted).

Please set and and insert strings as follows:

1. Scan “Start setting G1 character”.
2. According to the content that needs to be added, refer to Appendix 1, scan the corresponding setting codes to the custom the string. Each character corresponds to 2 hexadecimal numbers, for example, “AB” corresponds to “41 42”.
3. Scan the “End Parameter Input” setting barcode. If you hear “Du-Di”, the setup has successed.
4. Scan the setting barcode “Start setting G1 position”.
5. Scan the parameter barcodes and enter the two-digit position parameters in sequence. For example, in order to insert G1 after the first character of the barcode, then scan the parameter barcodes 0 and 1.
6. Scan the “End Parameter Input “setting barcode. If you hear “Du-Di”, the setup has successed.
7. Scan the barcode ” Insert String 1″.
8. Scan the number of the string to be inserted. (1 and 2 correspond to G1 and G2 respectively; 0 means no insertion.)
9. Scan the “End Parameter Input “setting barcode. If you hear “Du-Di”, the setup has successed.
10. Scan the setting barcode “Start setting G2”.
11. According to the content to be added, refer to ” Appendix 1″ and corresponding setting codes to the custom the string. (“0 0” means G2 is an empty string.)
12. Scan the “End Parameter Input “setting barcode. If you hear “Du-Di”, the setup has successed.
13. Scan the setting barcode “Insert String 2”.
14. Scan the number of the string to be inserted. (1 and 2 correspond to G1 and G2 respectively; 0 means no insertion.)
15. Scan the “End Parameter Input “setting barcode. If you hear “Du-Di”, the setup has successed.

Hide Prefix and Suffix Hide Prefix

Users can hide prefix as follows:

1. Scan the barcode “Hide Prefix”
2. Scan the following barcode “F” for several times to determin the number of the hidden characters. (Each character corresponds to two “F”, for example, scanning “F” for 4 times means 2 characters will be hidden.)
3. Scan the “End Parameter Input “setting barcode.
4. Scan the following two setting barcodes to insert string.
5. Scan the “End Parameter Input “setting barcode. If you hear “Du-Di”, the setup has successed.

Hide Suffix

Users can hide suffix as follows:

1. Scan the barcode “Hide Suffix”
2. Scan the following barcode “F” for several times to determin the number of the hidden characters.(Each character corresponds to two “F”, for example, scanning “F” for 4 times means 2 characters will be hidden.)
3. Scan the “End Parameter Input “setting barcode.
4. Scan the following two setting barcodes to insert string.
5. Scan the “End Parameter Input “setting barcode. If you hear “Du-Di”, the setup has successed.
