4. Output Interface (3666 Base Unit)
The 1166/1266 is a multi-interface scanner. It can be used as a keyboard wedge
scanner, an RS-232 scanner, or a USB scanner. The output interface can be
programmed using the setup barcodes in this manual.
Please ensure that you have an RF connection between the scanner and the base
prior to selecting the interface type.
4.1 Keyboard Wedge Interface
4.1.1 Keyboard Type
The keyboard wedge interface is enabled by configuring/selecting keyboard type.
The supported keyboard types are listed below.
• PCAT - US, French German, Italian, Swedish, Norwegian, UK, Belgium,
Spanish, and Portuguese KBD
• PS2-30
• IBM 3477 TYPE (Japanese KBD)
• IBM 34XX, 319X & Memorex Telex (122Keys)
4.1.2 Keyboard Style - Alphabets
Keyboard layout style can be selected. There are three options to this setting:
default layout (US or English style), AZERTY layout, and QWERTZ layout. This
setting only works when the keyboard type selected is for US keyboard. The
scanner will make necessary adjustment when sending the ‘A’, ‘Q’, ‘W’, ‘Z’, ‘Y’,
and ‘M’ character according to this setting.
4.1.3 Keyboard Style – Digits
There are two digit layout styles as shown on the following figures. One has digit on
top (upper row) of a key and another has digits on bottom (lower row) of a key.
The digit layout style can be changed by the following configuration settings. There
are three options: Default, Lower Row, and Upper Row. The scanner will make
necessary adjustment when sending digits according to the setting value of this
parameter. This setting is used with the above setting (Keyboard Style – Alphabets)
and perhaps Character Substitution setting, when support to languages not available
on the scanner is needed.

4.1.4 Capital Lock Status
In order to send alphabets with correct case, the scanner needs to know the capital
lock status of the keyboard. Incorrect settings may result in reversed case of
alphabets being transmitted. There are 3 options to this parameter: On, Off, or Auto
Detection. If this parameter is set to Auto Detection, the scanner will automatically
detect the capital lock status of the keyboard before it transmits data.
4.1.5 Alphabets Transmission
User can choose how alphabets are sent by this parameter configuration. The
alphabets can be sent according to their case (the Case Sensitive option), or the case
is ignored (the Ignore Case option) when transmitting.
4.1.6 Digits Transmission
User can choose how the scanner transmits digits by configuring this parameter.
The scanner can transmit digits by using the alphanumeric key or by using the
numeric keypad. The Num Lock status of the keyboard should be ON if numeric
keypad option is selected.
4.1.7 Inter-Character Delay
An inter-character delay of 0 to 255 ms can be configured to match the computer
response time of the keyboard interface. The delay time configured is inserted
between transmitting every character. The longer the delay time configured, the
slower the transmission speed will be. The inter-character delay is zero by default.
