A. General Features

The Tysso CCD-8x (with built-in decoder) models embedded the intelligent decoding engine with advanced image correction algorithm to provide error-free reading.  Although it has more than one hundred programmable parameters, but it is now (since  Mar. 2005) able to be programmed via host computer (soft-programmable). it also provides changeable cable functionality to popular host in order to meet any specific application requirements. It is known as a high quality and performance but cheap barcode scanner on the global point-of-sale market.

B. The Key Component - Barcode Decoder

1. Reading enhancement

The Decoder is one of the most important component among the bar code scanner parts.  The Tysso decoder engine accepts 33 - 200 scans per second scanning rate to perform superior first hitting rate with error-free reading.

2. Fully Automatic Discrimination

The decoder discriminate all popular and some special bar code symbologies automatically such as following:

EAN-8, EAN-13, UPC-A, UPC-E0/E1 (WPC with add-on code 2+5), Code-39, Code-32, Code-35, Code-93, Code-128, Code-11, Codabar/Nw7, Industrial 2 of 5, Interleaved 2 of 5, Matrix 2 of 5, China Post 2 of 5, MSI/Plessey, UK/Plessey, Code-4, and Others upon requested.  There are different decoder versions which were written into WSI-311, WSI-312, and AMIC chips.  AMIC chip provides all codes listed above. In addition, the New barcode decoder for TS-Series Handheld barcode scanner is now available to decode 2D linear PDF417 and RSS symbologies.

3. Image Correction Algorithm

On special request, the CCD-8x intelligent models accept print tolerance distortion up to +/- 20%. it can easily discriminate all bar code symbologies, even the label has been badly printed.

4. Multiple Operation Modes

The CCD-8x intelligent models provide several useful operation modes to meet any specific technical requirement.  Especially some of the operation modes allow user to operate without pressing any button. (or called hands-free scanning)

Mode 1: Trigger On/Off, Mode 2: Trigger On/Good Read Off, Mode 3: Trigger On/Good Read Off/Delay Time = ? Mode 4: Continuous/Trigger Off, Mode 5 : Continuous/LED Always On, Mode 6: Continuous/No Trigger, Mode 7: Continuous/Testing, Mode 8: Continuous/Trigger Off/Delay Timeout=?

5. Interchangeable Cable Functionality

The Tysso low cost CCD scanner provide easy cable change method.  a cost effective solutions to link a popular host computer or terminals, the cable is changeable and can be easily done by using a pin to push into the tiny button-releasing hole at the bottom of the scanner, and pull the cable out once the RJ-45 connector has been released by the above said operation as shown here.

6. Friendly and Flexible Programming

The embedded utility can help user to set all necessary programming parameters such as before/after data string (preamble/postamble) and etc. to meet any input requirement of existing applications without software modification.


 

C. Bar Code Scanner Parts:  Cables

Cable Changing Methods, Cable Pin-outs, and availability:

The electronic characteristic of interface depends on the actual selected host communication interface with matched cable.

1. Cable change procedure

a) Connector form factor: 10P RJ-45 Phone Jack:

b) The phone-jack connector can be simply plugged into the RJ45 socket at the tail of scanner as shown in the following picture:

 

c) The Phone-jack plug can be easily detached from the scanner by insert a pin or needle into the tiny button-releasing hole located at the rear side of scanner.

 

2. Cables' pin-out and availability.
