1. Introduction

IntroductionIntroduction

Introduction

The RS232 Plug & Scan dongle is a connectivity solution and allows to si plify the connection between the

Baracoda scanners and all laptops, PCs , Tablet PCs, or all devices equipped with a RS232 COM port.

The Baracoda RS232 Plug & Scan dongle has the Bluetooth drivers and the Bluetooth application e bedded in

the RS232 device. This configuration eliminates the installation of the drivers and the software for the end-

user.

The RS232 Plug & Scan solution allows users to have an acknowledge ent beep, auto atic reconnection, and

bufferisation of the inco ing barcode data. Bufferisation of the barcode data allows the Baracoda scanner to

store inco ing barcodes even when the scanner is not connected to the dongle (this is the ‘No data loss ode’)

Si ply plug the RS232 Plug & Scan dongle in your co puter, scan a “connect barcode” with a Baracoda

barcode scanner, and the Bluetooth connection will be auto atically established.

NOTE:

Please note that the BaracodaManager software for P does not work

with Plug & Scan solutions.

No data loss mode

The ‘No data loss ode’ is activated by default for all scanners supporting the feature (RoadRunners,

BaracodaPencil2, RoadRunners Evolution, D-fly, ScanWear, ToughRunners). When you leave the connection

zone, the ‘No data loss ode’ allows a bufferisation of scanned barcodes. All scans will be auto atically

uploaded to the host when reconnected.

If your application is unable to handle all of the inco ing barcode scans, disable this feature by scanning the

‘no data loss ode’ barcode. Your scanner and any future connected scanners will retain this configuration.

The batch ode can be used with scanners supporting batch ode:

- RoadRunners Evolution (CPU fir ware version 1.33 and newer)

- RoadRunners (CPU fir ware version 3.20 and newer)

- BaracodaPencil2 (CPU fir ware version 1.34 and newer)

This functionality is only available for Plug&Scan dongles with fir ware version 3.27 and newer (“Print

Fir ware Version” section for how to get the fir ware version).

The upload process consists of te porarily switching the scanner into Real ti e with “no data loss ode” ON

(all the barcodes in e ory will be sent using the no data loss protocol). Then the scanner switches back to

batch ode when all the barcodes are properly sent.

Note: UPLOAD Messages

As keyboard e ulation is used, the host application has a li ited access to infor ation on the scanner. To

answer this, the dongle can use a essages syste which can help the host application having a status on the

upload process. This ode can be enabled or disabled (default) using the following barcodes:

(for Pencil2 & RoadRunners Evolution)

(for Pencil2 & RoadRunners Evolution)

When this is used, the dongle adds infor ation essages with the inco ing data:

Before the upload:

<UPL>: start xxxxx

xxxxx being the nu ber of expected barcodes to co e

After the upload, two essages can appear:

<UPL>: transmission OK

This eans that the barcodes were correctly trans itted fro the scanner to the dongle and thus that they

have been erased fro the scanner

<UPL>: transmission NOK

This eans that an error occurred and has been detected by the dongle during the data upload. This eans

that the data has not been erased fro the scanner.

How to connect your BaracodaPencil/Pencil2

1. Reset your BaracodaPencil (see BaracodaPencil/Pencil2 User Guide to perfor this operation).

2. Plug the dongle into the RS232 COM port of the co puter and switch it on.

3. Do not scan any other barcodes except the ‘connect barcode’ that is delivered with the dongle.

4. The LED on the scanner will start double flashing green: you are now connected! (*)

5. Start scanning barcodes.

(*) If the LED on the BaracodaPencil is not double flashing green, this ay possibly ean:

The BaracodaPencil is low on ower. Charge the unit u com letely and try again

The BaracodaPencil has not been reset. Reset it and try again



The BaracodaPencil has been rogrammed from its default status and it is not able to decode

the Code 128 symbology. Be aware that the airing barcode is a code128 and so the

BaracodaPencil shall stay in its default mode “Code128

on”

By default, the Plug & Scan dongle activates the “No Data Loss Mode”. (Please refer to the paragraph 2.3

for additional infor ation)
