2. Function
This document explains the details of the functions of the unit and its options.
2.1 Display
Information is displayed on a 4.3 inch WVGA screen size (800 dots vertically x 480 dots
horizontally).
The main functions are as follows.
i The display resolution is WVGA (default) and there is an on/off function for screen display.
ii The display can be rotated (90°, 180°, 270°).
iii The backlight has an on/off function (with an Auto Dimming function)
2.1.1 Display control

The screen display functions are as follows:
[List of Functions]
No Windows Embedded
Function
. Handheld 6.5 model
1 Backlight brightness adjustment Yes
2 Backlight Auto Dimming Yes
3 Backlight Auto Off Yes
4 Screen display rotation Yes
5 Virtual Off Yes
6 Backlight brightness restriction by the Yes
temperature sensor
(1) Backlight brightness adjustment

- Setting can be made in one of nine grades for power source either when the power is provided by
an external power supply or from the battery pack.
(The default is 9 (maximum) when an external power source is used, or 7 when the battery is
used.)
- The settings can be changed using the contrast and brightness properties.
- The backlight can be turned on and off using a device control function from an application.
For details, refer to “System Library Manual”.
16
(2) Backlight auto dimming (only under battery power)
- If the terminal is left over in idle state, with no key or touch panel input, the backlight will dim
automatically (the auto dimming function is only enabled under battery power).
When key or touch panel input resumes, the dimmed state is canceled and the display reverts to
normal brightness.
- Auto dimming setting can be changed between yes/no using the contrast and brightness
properties (default: Yes), and the standby time before dimming (default: 1 minute) can be
changed.
- The setting for the brightness of the LED backlight during auto dimming can be changed using
contrast and properties. (Eight levels are available, the default is the third level).
(3) Backlight Auto Off

- If the terminal is left over in idle state, with no key or touch panel input, the backlight will turn off
automatically, to save power. When key or touch panel input resumes, the display reverts to
normal brightness.
- The backlight auto off setting can be changed between yes/no using the contrast and brightness
properties (default: Yes), and the standby time auto off (default: 5 minutes) can be changed.
- While under battery power, pack and both the Auto Dimming function and the Auto Backlight OFF
function have been enabled, the function with the shorter preset time period will be enabled.
(Example: If auto dimming is set to 1 minute and auto backlight off is set to 5 minutes -> auto
dimming after 1 minute, then backlight off 4 minutes later.
If auto dimming is set to 5 minutes and auto backlight off is set to 1 minute -> Only
backlight off occurs after 1 minute (in this case, auto dimming does not operate).
(4) Screen display rotation

The display can be rotated by turning the screen. In that case, the coordinate system of the touch
panel also rotates.
(5) Virtual Off

Virtual Off is a wireless standby state due to low power consumption. When the system has entered
virtual off state, its display and backlight turn off. The display and backlight turn back on when it is
restored from virtual off state.
[Note] Refer to “2.8.4 Power-saving control” for details.
(6) Backlight brightness restriction by the temperature sensor (under external power
supply or battery power)
i The backlight brightness is automatically restricted when the temperature inside the terminal is
high.
- There are two levels of restriction. The first restricts backlight brightness so that it can only be
set to the level levels from 1 to 7 out of 9.
- The second level restricts brightness so that it can only be set to the level levels from 1 to 5 out
of 9.
ii If normal brightness or brightness when dimmed by the auto dimming function (only under
battery power) is set higher than the valid range (levels) under restriction, the display is
automatically dimmed to the highest level allowed in the restricted range. Once the temperature
drops and the restriction is canceled, brightness automatically reverts to its previous level.

2.7 Storage
This unit has slots for fast, high-capacity Flash Disks and Micro SD cards.
2.7.1 Flash disk

This is recognized by the OS as a storage disk, and is displayed in the root directory as the
“FlashDisk” folder. The FlashDisk can be used for saving files such as data files and program files.
Once data has been written to FlashDisk, it is retained even without battery power.
(1) Suspend prohibition function during and after FlashDisk access

Suspending while an application is accessing the FlashDisk can be prohibited from the system
library. Prohibiting suspension during FlashDisk access means that the power cannot turn off while
unsaved data is still waiting to be written to the disk, enabling more reliable data saving.
(2) Auto Setup function

If Setup.exe (default settings) is placed in the FlashDisk¥CE¥ARM¥ folder, it automatically starts
from that folder when the unit reboots.
This function enables automatic installation of applications and patches etc.
36
2.7.2 SD card
This unit supports Micro SD cards (maximum capacity: 32GB, SDHC standard).
When a Micro SD card is inserted, it can be used for memory expansion or external storage.
(1) Micro SD card slot
Supported Folder
Slot type
capacity name Access width Remarks
microSD 32GB SD card 4 bits SDHC supported
 Write protection is not supported (Micro SD does not have a write protection switch).
 Card detection does not trigger wakeup.
 Micro SD card format tool (Control Panel -> Memory Area Manager)
 Partitioning of cards is not supported
Partitioning of Micro SD memory cards is not supported.
SD memory cards that are already partitioned are not supported.
(2) Suspend prohibition function during and after FlashDisk access

The system library can be used to prohibit suspension while an application is accessing the SD card,
so it can be used more safely. The system control function can be used to prohibit suspension
during SD card access, and for a fixed period after the SD card is accessed.
(3) Auto Setup function

If a executable file is saved with a specific name (“Setup.exe“, ”Autorun.exe“) is saved
into ”¥CE¥ARM” on the Micro SD card, the executable file can run automatically when the card is
recognized, and on startup.
37
2.7.3 Precautions
The following operations on FlashDisk and Micro SD card risk corrupting some or all of the data they
contain.
(1) Reset during data writing

If a reset request is issued during data writing, and Off process is attempted within the specified
period. Files are retained if the Off process was completed. However, the operating status of the
device may not allow completion of the Off process. In that case, the disk folder itself may be
corrupted, so do not use reset while data is being written.
(2) Suspend/ resume during data writing

If a suspend/ resume occurs during data writing, the writing process continues after resume.
However, if the card is inserted or removed during Suspend, or if a reset is performed, this
continuation is not possible, so suspension during writing should be avoided whenever possible.
(3) Cradle disconnection during data writing via the cradle

The file being written will suffer an error and will not be retained, so do not disconnect the cradle
during writing.
(4) Removal of the Micro SD card during data writing

The file being written will suffer an error and will not be retained, and the content of the SD card
itself could be corrupted, so do not remove the card during writing.

④ CPU clock frequency control
⑤ Virtual off (wireless standby)
* Refer to “3.1.8 Eco recharge settings” about the setting tool.
39
2.8.1 Power On/ power Off
The factors which turn unit power On and Off (suspend and resume) are as follows.
(1) Power ON Factors

i Power is turned on by pressing the Power key on the unit.
ii Power is turned on automatically by the Alarm function at the specified time.
iii If the terminal is placed in a cradle, it turns on automatically. (only when the cradle is powered)
iv Connection to a USB-B cable turns the power on.
v Pressing a trigger key turns the power on. (Setup required)
vi An incoming call turns the power on if the WAN communications device is turned on.
vii Power is turned on by pressing the Reset switch.
[Caution] Power does not turn on if the following occur during the startup check.
- When main battery voltage level is insufficient to start up the terminal
- The battery lock is open.
(2) Power OFF factors

i Power is turned off by pressing the Power key on the unit while power is on. (This can be set as
prohibited)
ii Power is turned off automatically by a software setting if there is no activity (keys, touch panel,
disk, card, communication) for a set period. (APO)
iii Power is turned off by main battery voltage drop.
iv Power turns off when the battery cover lock is opened.
v Power is turned off when the Power Off function is executed.
vi When the internal temperature of the unit (CPU temperature) rises above a certain level, a
warning is issued and then the power is turned off, to protect the unit. (Refer to the temperature
restriction control section)
[Caution] If the unit is turned off by factor [3] or [6], a pop-up is displayed on the screen on the next
startup.
(3) Memory check

This checks the status of memory after power is turned on. If the memory is corrupted, the following
warning message is displayed every time the power is turned on, until a full reset is performed on
the unit.
40
(4) Temperature restriction control
When external temperature is high and the unit’s devices are operating at full capacity (high CPU
speed, continuous camera operation, continuous wireless communications) etc., the internal
temperature of the unit rises and eventually a warning is issued and the power is turned off to
protect the unit. In that case, either turn off the power and leave the terminal unused for a while, or
move it to a location where the surrounding air temperature is cooler.
If power is turned off due to the temperature restriction, a warning message is output when the
terminal is turned on again
Warning the next time the unit starts after being turned off due to temperature
restriction
41
2.8.2 Power key control
The Power key must be pressed for approximately one second for the system to recognize turning
on the power.
The Power key must be pressed for approximately one second for the system to recognize turning
off the power.
(1) Disabling the Power key after turning on the power

After turning on the power, the Power key will be disabled for a certain period of time. This prevents
the power being turned off during the transition stage while drivers are being restored. This disabled
time period can be set with the system library.
(2) Disabling the Power key

After the FlashDisk or Micro SD card is accessed, the Power key will be disabled for a certain period
of time. This prevents the power being turned off while disk access continues.
This disabled time period can be set with the system library.
The Power key is also disabled for the period specified in the critical path while a communications
function is in use.
(3) Disable turning off the power

It is possible to disable turning off the Power key from the system library. This is based on the
following envisaged situations:
- The application meeds to perform a shutdown process before the system turns the power off
- The user does not want to turn the power off during a required process.
If the Power key is pressed down while the Power key is disabled, the system broadcasts a
message to application software without turning off the power.
 WM_POWERBROADCAST
 PBT_APMSUSPEND
The message is issued only once when the Power key is pressed for the first time after setting.
The setting is canceled by turning the power off, or by a reset.
This function is used to realize the virtual off state. Refer to the section on virtual off.
42
2.8.3 Reset and resume control
When a power on factor occurs, resume or reset is used to start the system.
A reset clears program execution status.Therefore, data on the RAM in work is discarded, because
there is a possibility that in the middle of writing a file is corrupt, you need to be careful.Resume,
will return to the program execution state before power OFF.
(1)Resume
If the device has had its power turned off (to suspend) normally, it resumes the next time its power
is turned on.Resume, and continue the process that was running the last of the power supply is
OFF.Program execution memory in RAM, unsaved data in use, and data in data storage memory
and FlashDisk are retained.
(2)Reset
When you press the RESET button, or you can run when you perform a soft reset function.
Running program is discontinued, after shutdown process, and then run the reboot of the OS.Root
disk (¥, ¥ Windows folder, etc.) and registry information, FlashDisk, data on the SD card will be
retained.
[Caution]
(1) If you lock the system during the reset process (when no response time is more than about 10
seconds), it will be forced to reset by skipping the shutdown process.
(2)When not restarting the body even if a RESET button is pressed, please do the following
operation."CLR" while a key and a "0" key are being pushed, a RESET button in the body back
is pressed.
(3)Full reset
This occurs if both Fn and CLR keys are held down at the same time and then the Reset button is
pressed for a period of one second or longer, by default, while the terminal is in operation.
Running program is discontinued, after shutdown process, and then restart the OS.
In this situation, the confirmation message “OK to clear?” is displayed twice. Use the right trigger
key and left trigger key to confirm. If the right trigger key is pressed in response to both times the
confirmation message is displayed, the memory (data storage memory, and OS and program
execution memory) is cleared, and initialization is performed. However, data on FlashDisk is
retained.
43
(4)User disk clear
Press the Reset button for a period of one second or longer while the Fn key, CLR key, and the
period key are pressed.Full reset and similar warning screen appears.
Operation is also the same.Root disk (¥, ¥ Windows folder, etc.) and the registry, is initialized to the
factory default state.After formatting the FlashDisk, you can start it and then re-load the OS to RAM
do the reset process.
(Such as patch that is placed on a FlashDisk (CAB file) also disappears.)
(5)Power-on reset
This happens if there is no external power supply (AC) and the main battery are not in place, so the
unit has absolutely no battery power (discharged), and then a battery is fitted into the unit.
All RAM data storage memory (data and databases saved by the user, applications installed in
RAM, etc.), program execution memory used by the OS and applications, and memory used by
drivers are all “completely initialized” (clear). However, data on FlashDisk is retained.
RAM 4 minutes in a state of disconnect the battery, clock, 72 hours will be backed up.
(I call the state that holds only watch and RTC backup state).
2.8.4 Charge setting

A lithium ion rechargeable battery is being used at this end, but degradation is developed for
consumables.
When charging/discharging is repeated in particular, the battery capacity you can charge will fall
gradually.
Therefore the following 2 charge functions are offered according to the use conditions.
(1) usual charge

When connecting to a cradle or a charger, a charge is always begun.
(2) ecology charge

I make sure that the system will check a remaining amount of a battery and charge the occasion
with a lot of remaining amounts.
When assuming that this function was effective, the charge number of times can be reduced, and
it's possible to increase the cycle frequency life expectancy of the battery.
[Note] please refer to "3.1.8 Ecology charge setting" about a setting tool.
44
2.8.5 Power-saving control
There are the following types of power-saving control.
(1) Sleep
The CPU transitions into idle state for power saving when the system and applications have nothing
to do and are waiting for events. The peripheral devices are operating.
(2) Auto Power OFF (APO)

The system turns off automatically if there is no activity (keys, touch panel) for a set period. Settings
for whether or not the APO function is allowed, and for the APO time, can be changed by software.
The set time can be set under Power Management on the Control Panel, and becomes the total of
the various settings for “Change to user idle”, “Change to system idle”, and “Change to suspend”.
The shortest time is 3 minutes. Regardless of the above conventional set times, there is no
specification for turning the power off if there is no key press or touch panel touch for one minute after
the power is switched on.
(3) Dimming and ABO (Auto Backlight Off)

The backlight dims automatically if there is no activity (keys, touch panel) for a set period.
Settings for whether or not the ABO function is allowed, and for the ABO time, can be changed by the
brightness property under settings.
(4) CPU clock frequency control

The CPU frequency can be switched by a user setting, and it can be changed automatically in
response to CPU load.
The CPU frequency can be switched by a user setting, so switch it for processes that required speed,
or to save power. The settings can be changed from CPU Speed on the Control Panel, or from the
system library. CPU frequency can be selected from Powersave (low), Normal, and Turbo. There is
also an automatic mode in which the CPU automatically measures CPU load and changes the
frequency accordingly.
The default is automatic.
CPU Speed setting

POWERSAVE
TURBO NORMAL AUTO
(Low)
1497.6MHz 1100.8MHz 400MHz 1497.6MHz ~ 400MHz
45
(5) Virtual off (wireless standby)
Virtual Off is a wireless standby state due to low power consumption. To the user, the unit behaves
as if it is off (suspended). Internally, the terminal is running normally but it seems to be turned off
(suspended) - nothing is displayed and you cannot make key inputs. This function is mainly used to
enable the terminal user to resume communication quickly, while also saving power in
communications standby state. It saves power during standby for wireless communications etc. by
turning the LCD, keys, and touch panel off through an API from an application.
- Summary of virtual off operation

The system takes the status illustrated below. The system has a mode named Virtual OFF and the
state transitions from the ON State to the OFF State in this mode.
The transition is triggered by the message issued by pressing the Power key.
- How to set Virtual Off mode from an application

Use the system library to change to Virtual Off mode. In this mode, the following messages are
displayed alternatively every time the Power key is pressed.
When the Power key is pressed to turn off the power:

WM_POWERBROADCAST (PBT_APMSUSPEND)
When the Power key is pressed to turn on the power:

WM_POWERBROADCAST(PBT_APMRESUMESUSPEND)
In the diagram in Figure 2.11, the application receives PBT_APMSUSPEND message at the first
press of the Power key and then changes the state to Off State in the Virtual Off mode. And then
the application receives PBT_APMRESUMESUSPEND message and returns to the on State of
the Virtual Off mode.
The application undertakes the transition process to the Off state in the Virtual Off mode. The
application disables display, key input, and touch panel operation, etc. and turns off the power to
unnecessary devices.
[Note] For details, refer to the System Library Manual.

Check digit calculation

A barcode value is calculated methodically, and then the calculation result and the check
character at a specific position are compared. If they match each other, the scanning data is
deemed correct. The calculation method differs according to each barcode symbology.
Readable digits
The actual readable digits on a barcode differ depending on the resolution and the scanning
distance between the terminal and the bar code.
48
2.9.2 Scanning method
The laser scanner has “scanning state” (emits a laser beam to read a barcode) and “standby state”
(scanning is halted and the terminal remains in a standby state).
These two states are controlled to start and stop barcode scanning.

Multi-step reading
This method is for scanning a specified number of barcodes. Once scanning for the specified
number of bar codes has been completed, the scanner closes and will not scan again until
reopened.
Also, the same bar codes that have been scanned previously cannot be scanned again.
49
2.9.3 Scanning conditions
Conditions that allow scanning a barcode symbology in specific modes can be set for each
readable symbology.
Readable symbology codes

Barcode symbologies that are enabled or disabled for scanning can be specified.
If only specific symbologies are to be scanned, set “Enable” for scanning on these barcode
symbologies only and “Disable” on the other symbologies. This will reduce decode processing
time and lower the error rate. The default is “Enable scanning of all symbologies”.
Readable digits
The no. of digits to read can be set for each readable symbology.
If only a specific no. of digits is to be scanned, specify it for each readable symbology. This will
reduce decode processing time and lower the error rate.
Enable or disable check digit

Check digit can be set to “Enable” or “Disable” for each readable symbology.
Enabling check digit will lower the error rate.

Validation count
Validation is carried out for a specified number of times to check if scanned data is valid, and then
the data is output only if it is valid. The number of validations can be set either on the Control
Panel or using the laser scanner library. The following settings are available, using a combination
of 2-value and 4-value codes (default setting: 1).
1 2-value code: 1 validation/ 4-value code: 0 validations, validation is possible

with only a one-sided scan
2 2-value code: 1 validation/ 4-value code: 1 validation, validation is possible
with only a one-sided scan
3 2-value code: 2 validations/ 4-value code: 2 validations, validation is
possible with only a one-sided scan
4 2-value code: 2 validations/ 4-value code: 3 validations, validation is
possible with only a one-sided scan
5~9 2-value code: 2 validations/ 4-value code: 3 validations, validation is
possible with right-left double-sided scan
Read count
In “Continuous Scanning” mode, scanning continues for the preset number of scanning times, and
then it will stop in standby state. The effective number can be set either on the Control Panel or
using the laser scanner library. The setting range is 1~9 times, and the default is 1 time.
Scanning period
The effective scan time after the trigger key is pressed can be set either on the Control Panel or
using the laser scanner library. After the preset time has elapsed, the scanner will go into standby
state automatically.
The setting range is 1~9s, and the default is 1s.
Double scanning prevention function

This prevents scanning the same bar code twice when the “Continuous Scanning” mode has been
set. Scanning the same bar code again will be prohibited until scanning stops and resumes.
51
2.9.4 Scanning result output format
Formats for outputting results of scanned barcodes can be set.

Select one of the following five termination codes to attach to the end of decoded data.
<CR> , <LF> , <CR>+<LF> , <TAB> , No termination code
Default setting: No termination code
(3) Output buffer setting

When a barcode is scanned, the scanned data is output by the specified method.
There are the following output methods.
OBR buffer Scanned data is output to memory in the driver.

Scanned data output to the memory can be captured using a function provided from the
library.
Key message output Scanned data can be output with the window message to the specified window handle.
Window handle specification can be specified using a function provided from the library.
Output to clipboard Scanned result is copied to the clipboard and then output to the edit control focused by caret.
Keyboard output Scanned result is output as a keyboard event to the edit control focused by caret.
* In WEH6.5 Pro models, the connection destination system for remote desktop, correct
output of data that includes characters expressed in combination with the Shift key, such as
capital letters and symbols, requires setup to enable the following settings in the registry.
Registry path name: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE¥Drivers¥CASIO¥Laser
Item name: RDPOutput
Data format: DWORD
Setting value range: 0: Enable, 1: Disable
Default value: 0 (disable)
- The value set in the above registry is reflected in the driver when the unit is reset.
- In the combinations of OS and scanning conditions in the table below, the above registry
setting must be enabled in order to use keyboard output with condition combinations
which have “Required” in the corresponding field.

- If the above settings are enabled, keyboard output is performed after speed is adjusted,
to reliably output correct data to the remote desktop connection destination. Therefore, it
may take more time to complete output than if this setting is disabled.
54
Save to memory method (output to OBR buffer)
When a bar code is scanned, its decoded data, including the barcode symbology and data size, are
stored in the OBR buffer, which is a data storage memory area in the driver. The saved data can be
retrieved by a function supplied from the library. This output method has the following features.
– It can capture the barcode symbology and data size information.
– It can capture the data at any user-set timing.
– The length of one data unit is up to 98 characters, and up to 9 labels can be saved.
Any new data scanned after data for 9 labels is already stored in the memory will be discarded.
Data acquisition method

Data can be acquired by a function supplied from the library.
The memory control functions are as follows:
Function Description
Read data Read enough data for one label (code) from the data stored in the OBR
buffer, starting from the beginning. When the data is read, the reading
process starts from the oldest scanned data.
Buffer check Check the status of the data stored in the OBR buffer, and notify how many
labels-worth of data is stored.
Buffer clear All scanned data held in the OBR buffer is cleared.
(4) Scan completion notification settings

When scanning is complete, notification is provided to the application. There are two notification
methods, and settings can be made to enable or disable each method. This section describes these
notification methods.
Notification by window A window message is issued to the specified window handle when
message scanning is complete. Also, the conditions for scanning completion
can be fetched by referring to wParam for the window message.
[Default settings] Notification by window message is enabled.
Notification by event An event with the required name is issued when scanning is
complete.
Also, the conditions for scanning completion can be fetched by a
function provided by the library. *1
No notification No notification is issued when scanning is complete.

*1 For details, refer to the Laser Scanner Library Manual.
[Remarks] Scanning will be terminated when any of the following conditions is met.
- Scan successful
- Timeout.
- OBR buffer overrun
- Module fault detection, etc.
55
(5) Setting unique specialized operation symbology
The terminal can be set to perform special actions when various barcode symbologies are scanned
and satisfy certain conditions. The code types, conditions, and operation content are as follows.
Barcode Conditions Operation

Code128 When barcode data Scanned barcode data including the FNC2
includes FNC2 function character is temporarily stored in the
scanner. The stored data can be automatically
added at the forefront of the subsequent scanned
symbol data to be output.
*1, *2
When barcode data 128 can be added to the ASCII value of the single
includes FNC4 data character that follows after FNC4, and the
result output as an extended ASCII character. If
two sequentialFNC4 function characters are
scanned, either a group of two sequential FNC4
function characters are read, or “128” is added
automatically to each subsequent ASCII character
data following the two FNC4 characters until the
end of the symbol.
When the lead character is The scanned barcode is recognized as a GS1-128
FNC1 (EAN128) code. The single data character that
follows after the lead FNC1 can be output as a
character GS(1DH).
When the character is The FNC1 character is not output.
FNC1
When the third or later The single data character that follows after FNC1
character is FNC1 can be output as a character GS(1DH).
*1 FNC2 for Code128 is an identifier that indicates linked barcodes. Even if a Code128 including
FNC2 is read, the scanner cannot output data as soon as it is read. After that, when a Code128
not including FNC2 is read, the data read up to that time is linked and output. The size of
combined symbol data is limited to 98 characters. If this is exceeded, the previous combined
symbol data that was scanned right before the exceeded combined symbol data are output.
*2 When using the trigger keys to scan barcodes which include FNC2,
Read one barcode with one scan operation on laser scanner models. The laser goes out after a
barcode is read, so scan each barcode individually. Finally, output the results after scanning a
barcode that does not include FNC2.
56
(6) Control characters conversion output
If the scanned barcode included a control character, that control character can be replaced with
another character, or it can be deleted, before output. The character that has not been replaced or
deleted yet can specify multiple arbitrary control characters. The character after replacement can
specify multiple arbitrary characters, other than control characters.
Characters that can be replaced or deleted (characters before replacement)

- Control characters with the ASCII codes 00h~1Fh, 7Fh
Characters after replacement
- Any arbitrary single-byte alphanumeric character or symbol (ASCII code = 20h~7Eh)
Control character conversion definition file

The conversion method is specified by the conversion definition file below. With the conversion
definition file placed in the save destination stated below, reset the device terminal or call the
OBRLoadConfigFile function and the OBRSetDefaultSymbology function to reflect the setting
content.
If there is no conversion definition file, the control character will not be converted.
File name: OBRDRV_R.ini
Save destination: ¥Windows folder
OBRDRV_R.ini file format

[ConvSrc] The [ConvSrc] section specifies characters subject to
CodeNN=0xHH replacement.
The “NN” part indicates a serial number starting from
(Example) 01. Up to 33 can be specified.
Code01=0x1D In the “HH” part, use hexadecimal to specify the ASCII
Code02=0x0A code for the control character.
[ConvDst] The [ConvDst] section specifies characters after

CharNN=’X’ replacement.
The “NN” part indicates a serial number corresponding
(Example) to the above [ConvSource] section. Up to 33 can be
Char01=’/’ specified.
Char02=’@’ Characters for replacement should be surrounded by
single quotation marks, as shown on the left, with one
arbitrary character in the “X” part.
[Delete] The [Delete] section specifies characters subject to
CodeNN=0xHH deletion.
The “NN” part indicates a serial number starting from
(Example) 01. Up to 33 can be specified.
Code01=0x02 In the “HH” part, use hexadecimal to specify the ASCII
Code02=0x03 code for the control character.
– In the above example, the control character 0x1D is replaced with ‘/’, and 0x0A is replaced with ‘@’
for output. The control characters 0x02 and 0x03 are deleted.
– If the same character is specified in the [ConvSrc] section and the [Delete] section, the delete
instruction has priority.
– If the number specified in the [ConvSrc] section is not present in [ConvDst], or in the reverse case,
the conversion is not performed.
57
Control character conversion example
The example of conversion after barcode data scanning is as shown below.
Control character conversion example

Code02=0x03
2.9.5 Scan result notification

When scanning a barcode is complete, a notification about the scanning result is received by the
user via either LED, buzzer, or vibrator. Each notification method can be set to “Enable” or
“Disable”.
Configuration Scan Scan Scanning OBR buffer Default

*1 *2

*1 Scan failure
Scanning will fail when one of the following occurs.
 When a barcode with a number of digits outside the specified range is scanned
 When a check digit calculation error occurs
 Full ASCII conversion error occurs in scanning bar code of Code39 symbology or Code128
symbology.
The LED did not light for a scan failure.
58
*2 OBR buffer overrun
This means scanning takes place while data for 9 labels was already stored in memory in the
OBR buffer, when the “OBR buffer output” was the scanned data output method.
2.9.6 Expanded functions

(1) Laser emission width control
If the laser emits on barcodes located near each other, scanning may fail.
A barcode can be successfully scanned by narrowing the laser beam emission width, to focusing
on one bar code at a time, and not onto the other adjacent codes.
The laser beam emission width can be set to one of the four modes below.
 No control deflection angle (no control of emission width)
 Large deflection angle (wide)
 Medium deflection angle (standard)
 Small deflection angle (narrow)
No deflection angle control Large deflection angle Medium deflection angle Small deflection angle
(No control on laser beam emission width) (Wide) (Standard) (Narrow)
* When either large deflection angle, medium deflection angle, or small deflection angle is set as
the control for laser emission width, and scanning is performed in a state that combines the
above setting with the Auto Gain setting for gain, scanning performance may be reduced,
depending on the barcode print quality. When either large deflection angle, medium deflection
angle, or small deflection angle is used as the setting, set “gain mode 0~3” as the gain setting.
Also, when Auto Gain is used as the setting, set “No deflection angle control” as the laser
emission width setting.
The emission width can be set using the laser scanner library. The default is “No control on laser
beam emission width”.
Setting values for laser emission width are stored in the area for system use, and are read out for
control when the system is reset.
Laser calibration *1 can be used to adjust setting values for laser emission width. The setting
values adjusted by laser calibration must be registered in the registry. If there is a registered
setting value in the registry, it will have priority.
*1 Laser - calibration
Each laser scanner module has an individual performance difference from others, causing
errors in laser emission width.
Perform calibration to compensate for this difference. A specialized barcode is used for
calibration.
59
(2) Laser focus
If scanning takes place with the laser beam emitted onto multiple bar codes located near each
other, it can be difficult for the user to distinguish which barcode was correctly scanned. In that
case, when the laser focus function is enabled, the scanned barcode is indicated by the laser
when barcode scanning is successful, and a notification is sent to the user saying which barcode
was scanned. The laser scanner library can be used to set “Enable” or “Disable” for laser focus.
This can also be set using Scanner Settings on the Control Panel.
The default is “Disable laser focus”.
(3) Trigger key startup

If “Turn on with the Trigger key” has been set as a power on factor, pressing a trigger key while the
power is off turns the power on. This setting allows the user turn the power off while an application
that uses the scanner is running, then press the trigger key to perform “turn on the power -> scan a
barcode”, as a single action.
The default is off.
(4) Trigger key specification

Various keys such as Enter key, up/down/left/right cursor keys, side trigger keys, and center
trigger key on the front of the terminal can be set as the trigger key.
The default is that only side and center trigger keys are enabled.
(5) Operation configuration information file

The information for the various setting values can be stored in a file and saved, or the system can
be restored from that fie.
The configuration file storage location and its name are as follows.
Configuration file location: FlashDisk¥System Settings
Configuration file name: OBRDRV.ini
 Saving configuration files

All setting content set in the barcode scanner library is saved in text files.
 Configuration file restoration

The configuration file is loaded and settings stated in the file set in the barcode scanner library are
set in parameter tables in the barcode scanner library. The parameter table settings are reflected
in the driver when the barcode scanner driver is opened.
[Remarks] The barcode scanner driver loads the configuration file when a reset is executed.
If no configuration file is available, the default settings are set.
60
2.9.7 Power control
(1) Module power control during non-use

In order to save power, the scanner module is switched to standby mode when laser light is not being
emitted.
(2) Virtual Off

The barcode scanner does not perform any particular processes. Even if the device terminal
transitions to Virtual Off, the barcode scanner performs the same process as when it is on. If it is
necessary to suppress the operation of the barcode scanner when Virtual Off occurs, the application
program should perform the following process.
Refer to the Laser Scanner Library Manual about library functions.
Status On transition to virtual off On cancellation of virtual off

During scanning Turn the laser/aimer off No action
(Single scanning)
During scanning Turn the laser/aimer off Turn the laser/aimer on
(When using library (Call a library function)
functions)
Key operation is disabled during Virtual Off, so the laser/aimer does not light even if a trigger key is
pressed. Also, the trigger keys cannot be raised to turn the power on during virtual off.
[Reference] Refer to “2.8.4 Power-saving control” about power-saving control.

- Reading the number of scanned digits
Figures outside brackets are the numbers of readable digits. Figures inside brackets are numbers of
settable digits for the library and Control Panel. However, caution is required because the numbers
of readable digits are guideline figures, and the actual readable range depends on the error
correction level, the state of symbol printing (resolution, print density, thickness, etc.) and the
surrounding environment. Numbers of readable digits are strongly influenced by the module’s focal
length. Long-distance types have long depth of field, so it is possible to fit large symbols within the
angle of view, and the number of readable digits is larger.

2.10.2 Scanning method
(1) Ordinary Read
This function reads one bar code at a time and outputs the data. Ordinary, this read method is used.
(2) Multi-step Read

This function continuously performs decoding as long as one of the R/L Trigger keys is held down.
Once bar codes are decoded they are not read any more. This function is useful for reading all bar
codes without repeating the same action when more than one bar code is printed on one slip.
(3) Package Read

This function outputs the read result retrieved from more than one bar code in a package. With the
multi-step read function, once bar codes are decoded they are not read any more. This is useful for
handling multiple pieces of bar code data. However, if any of the following unfavorable conditions
occur, all the bar codes may not be read in one capture:
- The objective bar code of read is not contained in the captured image.
- The focus is not sharp enough.
- The exposure is not correct.

Note:
The terminal is designed so that a maximum of 10 bar codes or 4,095 digits of bar codes can be read.
However, it is not recommended for the user to use the package read mode for reading bar codes
consisting of a large number of digits. If the number of bar codes is greater than 4, or if the total
number of digits is greater than 100, use the multiple-step read mode as much as possible.
65
2.10.3 Scanning conditions
Conditions can be specified for scanning symbols.
(1) Specifying symbols which are valid for scanning

Types of symbols can be specified as valid or invalid for scanning. If only specific symbols are to be
scanned, set “Enable” for scanning on those symbols only, to reduce scan processing time.
Default setting : All invalid
(2) Specifying readable digits

The minimum and maximum permitted numbers of digits for each symbol can be specified. If only
symbols with a specific number of digits is to be scanned, specify the necessary digit number to lower
the error rate.
Refer to “2.10.1 Barcode scan specification” for the minimum and maximum numbers of scanned
digits.
(3) Specifying check character calculation and output

Check character calculation can be set to enabled or disabled for some symbols.
It is also possible to specify whether the check character should be added to the scanned text string.
Refer to check characters and check character output in “2.10.1 Barcode scan specification” for how
to disable or enable calculation and output of check characters for each symbol type.
66
2.10.4 Scan result notification
This function notifies when symbol scanning is complete.
(1) Notification by indicator LED

When scanning is complete, or when it has failed, the indicator LED (the LED on the right front of
the terminal) lights. The following patterns can be set.

Decode Customize Function
This function adjusts the scanning speed to facilitate scanning of hard-to-read symbols.
(1) Decode Deliberation Levels

The level of deliberation for scanning symbols can be set at five different levels. Setting the level to
“Very Quick” or “Quick” limits symbols which can be decoded, but increases the decoding speed.
Alternatively, setting the level to “Deliberate” or “Very Deliberate” allows many symbols to be
scanned but slows down the decoding speed.

(3) Decode window function

ⅰ This function specifies the decode range, centered on the position that the aimer is firing at. If
multiple symbols are printed on one form, this function is an effective way to decode only certain
symbols.
ⅱ If mode1 and mode 2 are specified for the decode window, the decode range is determined
automatically so that only the symbols near the center are scanned.
ⅲ If user settings are specified for the decode window, specify the area around the center which
includes the coordinate center (416, 320). The decode range can be specified with coordinates.
Configuration Description Remarks

Disabled The decode window function is disabled
Mode 1 Use this to scan a single symbol located near the
center
Mode 2 Use this to scan a composite code at the center
User setting Specify the decode range using coordinates
When using the decode window to scan a symbol, the scan can only be performed when a part of
the symbol is contained within the decode window. In the figure below, symbol A cannot be scanned
because it lies completely outside of the decode window, but symbol B can be scanned because it
lies partially within the decode window.

(4 ) Decode B/W reverse function
This function is for scanning symbols (B/W reverse symbols) printed in white on black, in contrast
to normal symbols.
B/W reverse symbols can be scanned when B/W reverse mode is specified.
Configuration Description Remarks

No B/W reverse Scan normal symbols (printed in black on white). Default
B/W reverse Scan B/W reverse symbols (printed in white on black).
[Remarks]
i When B/W reverse mode is specified, it disables scanning of normal non-reversed symbols, so
caution is required.
ii QR codes, DataMatrix codes, and Aztec codes can be read whether they are normal or B/W
reverse symbols, regardless of this setting.
(5) Automatic linking of combined symbols

The imager provides support for combining symbols. When scanning the following combined
symbols, the scanned data is stored in the internal buffer, and all of the data from combined
symbols or all scanned symbols is combined and output.

combined in the internal buffer in the order that it
was scanned. It is not output.
(3) Finally, when scanning symbols other than those
whose lead begins with a space, they are
combined with the internally-stored data and
output.
QR Code QR Code including Scan so that all combination QR codes fit into the

2.10.6 Basic Functions
(1) Imaging capture
This function captures image data. It outputs two-tone of 256-level grayscale as image data. When
used together with a JPEG library, it can save captured images as JPEG files. Resolution can be
lowered for output by downsampling the image.
At that stage, the image sizes are as follows.

(2) Signature Index Function

This function scans both symbol and signature at one time and outputs the symbol data and
indexed signature at the same time. The position and size of a signature can be specified in the user
application based on the position of the symbol.
The function automatically corrects the up and down positions of the captured symbol in
correspondence with the up and down positions of the image data even if it has been captured
upside down or diagonally, and then outputs it.
As described above, clip out the area at the position relative to the symbol center, and output it as
an image file.

2.10.7 Common functions
(1) Illumination aimer
The imager device is equipped with an illumination LED and an aimer (either LED or laser) to
indicate the scan position. This software can vary their intensities and turn them on and off. When
scanning barcodes, the illumination and the aimer light alternately.
Device or function Status

Illumination Type Red LED

Aimer shape
The aimer shape is as follows.
Type Aimer shape Description

Red laser The aimer projects a + mark near the center, two
points on the left and right, and a rectangular
boundary.
(2) Imager APO

If the imager function has not been used (no symbol scanning, image capture, sign capture, or
streaming) for a certain period, this function automatically turns its power off. If an imager function
is used after imager APO, the image power is automatically turned back on. APO time can be set
in the range 0~1,800s, in second units. Imager APO can also be disabled.
Current consumption is suppressed while the imager power is turned off, but turning it back on
takes between tens and hundreds of milliseconds. Therefore, setting a short APO time may
produce a feeling of delayed response. The default imager APO time is set as 60 seconds.

- Light mode setting function

The following light modes can be set to match five types of light source. If the light mode is set to
Auto, the white point is identified automatically from within the subject. If the desired image could
not be captured with Auto mode, specify a light mode consistent with the light source. Set the light
mode to “Outdoors” when shooting outdoors (in cloudy weather), to “Fluorescent Light” when
shooting under fluorescent light, and to “incandescent light” when shooting under incandescent light.
These settings capture the subject with natural colors. Setting light mode to “Dark” when shooting in
dim light captures a brighter image of the subject. However, with light mode set to “Dark”, the
exposure time is lengthened, so camera shake is more likely to have an effect.
Even if the right light mode is set for the light source, other light sources and reflected light from
walls, etc., may affect color temperature, causing the image to be displayed in incorrect color tones.

Light mode Auto
Shooting outdoors under cloudy sky (color temperature =
6,500K)
Shooting under fluorescent light (color temperature =
5,000K)
Shooting under incandescent light (color temperature =
2850K)
Photography in a dark place (white balance = Auto,
exposure time = Long)
- Brightness setting function

This function sets the brightness. “Brightness” as defined in this explanation is the target value for
automatic exposure. Exposure is determined automatically in accordance with the brightness of
the subject, but a target value can also be set.

Brightness 0 (dark) to 24 (bright).
The default is 12.
79
- LED light switch function
The LED light can be turned on and off. It can be used regardless of whether or not the camera is
in use. The intensity (brightness) cannot be switched.
- Flash (stroboscope) function

LED flash capture can be used when capturing sill images. The LED flash has three modes: Flash
Off (the default mode), Flash On, and Auto Flash.

Flash function Flash Off (the default mode), Flash On, Auto Flash
- Compulsory shutter sounding function

The shutter sound is generated by the audio function during photo shooting. It will sound in all
situations, (including when audio is set to mute and when earphones are being used) to prevent
voyeurism.
- Focus adjustment
The CMOS camera built into the terminal is equipped with a focus adjustment function to enable the
operator to capture focused images.
This adjustment function comes in the form of a fixed-focus switch and an auto-focus feature.
The fixed-focus switch function enables the application program to switch the focus to suit the
distance to the object being captured.
The auto-focus function automatically adjusts the focus to suit the distance of the object being
captured. Executing the auto-focus function in preview mode automatically adjusts the lens position
to focus the camera. Auto-focus adjusts the preview screen’s fixed area (focus area) so that it
comes into focus. When the focus area and the focus frame display functions are enabled, a frame
known as the focus frame appears on the preview screen. The focus frame appears green when the
auto-focus has been successful. When the auto-focus function is not selected or when it is
unsuccessful, the focus frame turns to red. When capturing a still image upon successful auto-focus,
and when preview stops, the focus frame returns to red.
Autofocus may fail in extremely bright or dark places, and with low-contrast subjects. If autofocus
fails, use the fixed-focus switch function.

Fixed-focus switch function 1 (close range) – 10 (long range) (switch between
10 levels)
Auto-focus function No settings required
Focus frame display Disabled (default)/ Enabled

- Frame rate adjustment

The frame rate output from the camera module to the preview screen is automatically adjusted
according to the brightness of the surroundings, within a range so that the maximum frame rate is
not exceeded. The CMOS camera module has a function to set this maximum frame rate.
The maximum frame rate setting function is a function to set the maximum frame rate value output
from the camera during preview display. The maximum frame rate value can be switched to one of
four levels. When shooting video, the software resources used for encoding are greatly influenced
by this maximum frame rate value. The more the maximum frame rate is increased, the longer the
encoding time gets, and the more program memory is used.

- Exclusive control from other devices

Exclusive control is used so that the CMOS imager and the camera cannot be used at the same
time. This is necessary because both devices use the same hardware resources. If these devices
are used at the same time, the one that was used first is always prioritized. For example, if the user
attempts to use the camera preview function while the CMOS imager is open, the camera driver
returns an error.

the card being used.
For details, please refer to the individual specifications of each card.
84
2.12.2 Communication functions
Reading and writing of IC card data is performed by way of contactless communication between
an NFC module and an IC card. IC cards are preprogrammed to perform certain operations in
response to prescribed commands. When a command is correctly transmitted to an IC card, the
card responds to the received command by performing a corresponding operation. Once the
operation is complete, the card then transmits response information indicating the result of the
operation.
An explanation of the functions relating to this communication process is provided below.
Card polling function

1. Search for IC cards within the communicable range
2. IC card detection
3. IC card activation
4. Acquisition of IC card response information
The card polling function terminates the search for IC cards when: it detects a smart card; the
timeout elapses; the assigned callback function returns a 'FALSE' value; or the 'stop polling'
function is executed.
Once the IC card has been successfully activated, the NFC module continually transmits radio
waves in order to supply power to the smart card. This radio wave transmission terminates
automatically when the 'radio off' function is executed or when a certain time elapses without any
data communication between the NFC module and the IC card. It is possible to enable or disable
the automatic stop (auto stop) setting and to change the time until the auto stop occurs (i.e. the
timeout). Under the default settings, auto stop is enabled and the timeout is set at 1,000
milliseconds.
* If there are multiple IC cards within the communicable range, it is not possible to start just one
of them, or all of them. It is necessary to bring each IC card into proximity one card at a time in
order to ensure proper communication.
Data communication functions

Data communication becomes possible once the IC card has been activated by the card polling
function.
Communication ends once the NFC module has received response information from the IC card in
response to a transmitted command, or when the timeout elapses.
When the communication is successful, the IC card remains in the activated mode, thus enabling
consecutive transmission of other data.
Function Description Termination criteria Timeout

IC card
*1 A timeout occurs when the wait time from the transmission of a command by the NFC module
until receipt of a response from the IC card exceeds the above-mentioned 60 milliseconds.
Below is an example of data communication between an NFC module and an IC card.
Description
The NFC module consumes very little power while it is on.
In addition, turning the module on takes time, so if you would like to start communicating with an IC
card straight away, please be sure to open the device prior to activating the application. When
initiating communication with an IC card, start by performing card polling. When terminating the
application, please be sure to close the device.
86
Radio wave auto stop timing notification
After successfully activating an IC card using the card polling function, the radio wave
transmission will stop automatically if a certain time elapses without any data communication
between the NFC module and the IC card. When this happens, it is possible to send a notification
to the user application of the time the radio wave transmission stopped, using either a window
message or an event.
This notification function can be enabled or disabled, and is disabled under the default setting.
2.12.4 Power control

Device power-off during non-use
In order to save power, no power is supplied to the NFC device, or to the ASIC and other
components used to control the NFC device when the device is not open. The device is turned on
upon executing the open function, and turned off upon executing the close function.
Control when the terminal is off

The NFC control software switches the device off when the handheld terminal is turned off.
Furthermore, when the terminal power is switched on again, the NFC control software executes
the process corresponding to the mode that the device was in when the terminal was turned off.
The respective operations which occur when the terminal power is turned on or off are shown in
the table below.
Status Terminal power off Terminal power on

Card polling active Card polling suspended Device power on
Device power off Card polling resumes *1
Data communication Data communication Device power on *2
active suspended
Device power off
Open mode Device power off Device power on
Closed mode No process No process
*1 When card polling resumes after the power is turned back on, the timeout picks up from where it
ended in the card polling prior to turning the power off.
In addition, the elapsed card polling time is suspended while the terminal power is off.
*2 When the device power is turned off during data communication and operation is suspended, the
power supply to the IC card is interrupted so the card mode is reset.
Please resume card polling to restart communication in this mode.

2.13.1 Basic specifications

(1) USB switching
- Switching between the terminal’s microA/B connectors and the cradle
The terminal’s microA/B connectors and the cradle are used by switching exclusively between them,
using the same USB controller.
The switching algorithm is as follows:
- The microA/B connector is selected in normal circumstances
- When the terminal is placed in the cradle, the microA/B is cut off, and the system switches
compulsorily to the cradle side.
- The cradle creates a mode that fixes the microA/B connector as the connector to use, regardless of
whether the terminal is in the cradle. This is intended for situations when the cradle is only used for

Class Maximum Nominal Minimum

output value output value output value
1 20dBm N/A 0dBm
2 4dBm 0dBm -6dBm
3 0dBm N/A N/A
According to the Bluetooth standard, if the local device has a Class 1 module but the counterpart
devices have Class 2 or Class 3 modules, the signal output is automatically stepped down to the
counterpart device’s level.
92
2.14.1 Basic specifications
(1) Basic communication procedures

This section explains the basic procedures for using Bluetooth for communication.
ⅰ Bluetooth initialization
When the Bluetooth tool is started or an initialization function is executed in the library, it will turn on
the power to the Bluetooth module and initialize the Bluetooth protocol stack. The time required for
initialization varies between models.
ⅱ Search for devices

When the Bluetooth tool is operated or a device search function is executed in the library, a device
search signal is sent out, and device information is acquired for nearby usable Bluetooth devices.
ⅲ Acquiring service information

After the Bluetooth device to communicate with is selected, and the Bluetooth tool is operated or a
service acquisition function is executed in the library, information on the currently usable services
(profile) of the destination Bluetooth equipment is acquired through communication.
ⅳ Security authentication with PassKey exchange

The partner Bluetooth device may request a PassKey at a time of acquiring service information and
establishing Bluetooth connection. In case the Bluetooth tool is used, an input screen is displayed
when the PassKey is requested, so input the same PassKey for both Bluetooth devices. If the library
is used, the PassKey must be set in advance by running the PassKey setup function before the
partner requests the PassKey.
ⅴ Bluetooth connection
After the Bluetooth device to communicate with is selected, use the Bluetooth tool or execute a
connection function in the library, to make the Bluetooth connection. After the connection has been
established, communication via Bluetooth can be continued using the selected profile until the
Bluetooth connection is terminated.
ⅵ Terminating the Bluetooth connection

Use the Bluetooth tool or execute a connection function in the library, to terminate the Bluetooth
connection.
vii Closing Bluetooth

Close the Bluetooth tool or execute a closure function in the library to execute the Bluetooth protocol
stack termination process, and turn off power to the Bluetooth module.
93
(2) Communication procedures for each profile
In Bluetooth communication, there is the possibility of the communication link being cut off by the
radio wave environment. If that happens, run the retry process from the application to re-establish the
link. The retry process must be carried out because it is necessary not just for interference with
wireless LAN and Bluetooth, but also when there is interference with other devices, such as
microwave ovens using the ISM band.
ⅰ Serial profiles
Bluetooth connection can be managed using either the Bluetooth tool or the library, and actual
communication uses the COM port shown in 2.3.
ⅱ DUN (Dial-Up Network)

Bluetooth connection can be managed using either the Bluetooth tool or the library, and actual
communication uses the RAS setting that uses the COM port shown in 2.3. After the connection has
been established, communication via the TCP/IP protocol is possible.
(3) Security
This feature supports security functions regulated in the Bluetooth standard.
Bluetooth security is divided into authentication and encryption. Security is realized by using
PassKey (otherwise known as PIN code).
PassKey is a shared (common) authentication key used when forming a connection and trust
relationship (bonding) between Bluetooth devices. A maximum of 16 characters (in ASCII code) can
be used, but there may be limitations on the no. of digits and usable characters due to the
specifications of partner Bluetooth equipment. Also PassKey input must be completed within 30
seconds from a time when PassKey input request is generated.
Note that PassKey input is not required once “device trust” has been established with Bluetooth
equipment in a previous connection. However, the partner Bluetooth device must also have the trust
relationship in its memory.
Encryption is executed using a link key generated after PassKey exchange and a cipher key
generated from a 128-bit random number. Here, the partner Bluetooth equipment also must support
the encryption. PassKey exchange is required for Bluetooth connection when encryption is set
enabled.
94
(4) COM port list
The following are the COM ports used with Bluetooth.
Serial profile (client) COM6

Serial profile (server) COM7
DUN (Dial-Up Network) BSP0 *1
*1 This is the name of the port that handles dialup in BTLIB. Use “BluetoothDUN” as the modem
name.
Simultaneous use of multiple Bluetooth COM ports

Multiple Bluetooth COM ports cannot be opened simultaneously for use.
(5) Action in case of communication interruption

If the radio wave condition in the area is bad and the distance between Bluetooth devices becomes
too long, the Bluetooth devices that cannot use radio wave communications may automatically cut
transmission. Communication interruptions can be checked in user applications as function errors
affecting WriteFile or ReadFile, etc.
In cases where communication is interrupted, carry out the normal Bluetooth interruption process
using the BT tool or user application, and then try to re-establish the same connection. If the normal
Bluetooth interruption process is not performed, mismatches in the internal status of the Bluetooth
stack will occur (for example, the lower layer may be disconnected), making continued Bluetooth
connection impossible.
(6) Processing during suspend and resume

Bluetooth communication is achieved by data communication with the Bluetooth device built into the
terminal.
When the terminal goes into suspend mode while Bluetooth is being used, power to the Bluetooth
device built into the terminal is automatically turned off. After that, when the terminal resumes
operation, power to the Bluetooth device will be also turned on automatically. However, once the
power is turned off, all the parameters related to Bluetooth communication return to their default
states. Therefore it is necessary to disconnect the Bluetooth connection at the higher level, and then
reconnect.
(7) Bluetooth power supply status

ⅰ Bluetooth power is turned on by the following operation.
This is the case if the BluetoothON operation was performed by a tool, and the BTLIB Initialize
function was called.
ⅱ Bluetooth power is turned off by the following operation.

This is the case if the BluetoothOFF operation was performed by a tool, and the BTLIB DeInitialize
function was called.
ⅲ Default state
- The power is off in the default state after a full reset.
ⅳ Operation on terminal reset

- WEC7: The power turns off. However, it is on if the tool selected on after the reset.
- WEH6.5: The power state which preceded the reset is restored.
95
ⅴ Processing during a terminal suspend and resume
- On suspend: The module power turns off.
- On resume: The power state which preceded the suspend is restored.
96
2.15 WLAN
Wireless LAN control is achieved by wireless LAN communications in compliance with the
IEEE802.11 standard, and data communication functions are provided to higher-level applications.
2.15.1 Function summary

(1) Basic functions
The IEEE802.11 standard has the following functions.
Item Content Remarks

- Power saving (Off)
- Roaming
- Communication standard selection
- Scan channel selection
- Priority frequency band selection
- Multi SSID
(3) Power control functions

This provides functions related to power control for the wireless LAN module.
(4) Data acquisition functions

This provides functions to acquire information such as signal strength and connected access point
through the API.
97
(5) Terminology
Roaming
This function automatically switches access points in an environment where two or more access
points with identical SSID code exist.
Power saving
This saves power by automatically turning off power to the wireless circuit in the module in the
terminal when communication does not take place.
Ad hoc mode
This operation mode provides a direct communication between wireless equipment, without the
use of an access point.
Note, however, that the AdHoc mode is not recommended, because connection problems may
occur.
WEP
This is an encryption function that uses RC4 for safe communication.
40bit (64bit) and 104bit (128bit) are supported.
TKIP
Is used to encrypt the wireless LAN, it is one of the encryption scheme which has been adopted by
the WPA.
TKIP is supported to guard against WEP vulnerabilities.
AES
It is a new generation standard encryption scheme of the United States government.
AES can be used the encryption algorithm.
802.1x Security
This can strengthen authentication and establish a safe and reliable communication via wireless
LAN.
In general, this interlinks with TKIP.
It supports PEAP-EAP-MS-CHAP-V2, and EAP-TLS.
98
2.15.2 Casio expanded features
(1) Power saving
Perform IEEE802.11-compliant power saving operation. A function to turn power saving operation off
is provided, but there is no need to turn it off if there are no particular problems.
(2) Roaming
In an environment where there are two or more access points with identical SSID codes, the roaming
function automatically switches to the access point with the better radio wave environment.
Roaming operation procedure

i The signal strength of the currently connected access point is monitored regularly, and the
following procedure is performed when that signal strength falls below a set threshold.
ii Search for access points that can communicate with the terminal, and list the signal strength of
each access point.
iii Compare signal strength of the currently connected access point with that for listed access points.
iv If the comparison proves that one of the listed access points has a better signal strength than the
one currently connected with the terminal, the terminal will make a request for roaming (to that
access point).
v If roaming permission comes from the access point to the terminal, the roaming will complete.
Factors for signal strength comparison
Comparison factors
[1] Signal strength (RSSI value) is high
[2] Signal quality is good (compared if the values for
[1] are the same)
(3) Communication standard selection

Communication can be optimized for the environment by narrowing the standards used (frequency
band, high-speed communication).
Settings to suit the usage environment.

11abg Yes Yes - High-speed communication restriction
11bgn Yes - Yes Frequency band restriction
11an - Yes Yes
11abgn Yes Yes Yes No restriction (default setting)
99
* The restriction on high-speed communication (11n) is offered as an option because 11n
communication has more cases than other models of failure to communicate correctly with certain
access points, due to compatibility problems.
However, speed reduction must be taken into consideration, and it is necessary to check the state
of speed reduction in the actual usage environment.
(4) Scan channel selection

Restricting the channels to scan suppresses redundant signal output and improves scan time. This
channel selection is superseded by country-specific settings and communication standard settings.
(Example 1) If Europe is selected in country-specific settings, 14ch will not be scanned even if 14ch
is selected here.
(Example 2) If 11bgn is selected in communication standard settings, these channels will not be
scanned even if the 5GHz band is selected.
(5) Select the priority frequency band

In an environment where two or more access points with identical SSID code exist and they
support both the 2.4GHz and the 5GHz bands, this selection sets which frequency band is prioritized
for connection.
The priority frequency band selection is set by frequency band (2.4GHz/ 5GHz) and valid range.
The valid range is the range of signal strength in which the priority selection is valid, in the form
(roaming threshold+N) dBm. This is intended to prevent excessive roaming operations when the
terminal connects to access points with inadequate signal strength because of the priority frequency
band selection.
Connection priority ranking for access points with the same SSID
No selection of priority Priority frequency selected

[1] Signal strength (RSSI value) is high [1] The priority frequency band channel, and
[2] Signal quality is good signal strength (RSSI value) is in the valid
range or above
[2] Signal strength (RSSI value)
[3] Signal quality
[Caution]
(1) This function cannot guarantee that it is possible to connect to an access point in the priority
frequency band, due to access point detection conditions.
Example) When scanning for access point connection only detects access points in the
non-priority frequency band
(2) The priority frequency band selection only operates on the access point selection when making
a connection or using roaming.
Therefore, even if the environment satisfies the selection conditions after a connection is made,
the connection will not switch automatically. Switching requires action, such as cutting the
connection and reconnecting, or roaming.
100
(6) Multi SSID
The following method is available if it is necessary to connect to multiple different SSIDs.
i Manual switching
Prepare multiple configuration files (INI files), to switch the configuration file used on the
application site to match the SSID that is connected to.
Purpose of use
To move between multiple branches where each one has a different access point SSIS. In this
case, the SSID connected to before work is switched and used.
[Remarks] After switching the configuration file, the terminal must be reset to enable the settings.
ii Automatic switching
Up to 3 SSIDs can be registered in one configuration (INI) file, and the terminal automatic switches
to the best SSID to suit the access point search conditions.
Purpose of use
In this case, there are multiple access points with different SSIDs on the same site, and the one
to connect to is switched automatically due to movement.
