Trigger
To activate the read process, a trigger signal is to be sent via the serial RS 232 interface or USB interface
(COM port emulation only). The command is to be sent at the set baud rate, parity, and data and stop bits.
The command for activation is:
+
ASCII decimal value: 043
To cancel read readiness, send a deactivation.
The command for deactivation is:
-
ASCII decimal value: 045
Following a successful read operation, the IT 6300 deactivates itself.
The second option is to use the trigger button to establish read readiness.
Troubleshooting
For problem detection and troubleshooting, examine your scanner as follows:
1. Is the scanner supplied with power via the interface cable? For power to be supplied, the scanner and
computer must be connected to one another before the scanner is commissioned, whereby the
computer must provide a power supply of 5 volt DC for the scanner. Check the manual for your
computer to ensure that the power supply is adequate for connecting your scanner.
2. Make certain that the interface cable is securely connected to the computer. You can find information
on properly connecting the scanner in the manual for your computer. Support is also available from
your technical staff.
3. If your system operates with an external voltage supply, make certain that the power supply unit is
securely connected to the scanner and power supply.
4. Check that the interface cable is securely connected to the handle of the scanner. To do this, loosen
the Phillips screw on the end cap of the handle with a suitable screwdriver. Remove the cable fastening
clip and pull out the cable. Now guide the cable back in and make certain that it is properly seated in
the bracket. Remount the fastening clip and secure everything with the Phillips screw.
With the IT 4600, please loosen the cable with a small pin: the plug is unlocked by inserting the pin into
the hole in the side of the end cap.
5. If, even after performing all of these measures, the scanner is not ready for operation, replace the
power supply unit with a different recommended power supply unit which you are certain functions
properly.
6. Make certain that your scanner's interface is compatible with the computer. Further information on this
topic can be found in the manual for your computer. Also check whether the scanner has been
configured for the desired application. This information is described in the online help system for the
setup tool.
7. Check whether the bar code labels which you would like to scan are of suitable quality and that the
used bar code symbol is recognised by your scanner. Sample labels for testing are available from your
dealer should you require precise information on the label details. Damaged bar code labels (crinkled,
torn or soiled) may be recognised poorly or not at all by the scanner. If you suspect that the problem
lies with the quality of the label, check the read readiness with a label of relatively good quality.
8. If the problems are still not corrected, please contact Leuze electronic.
