Configure the SP400X Overview The SP400X is designed for use with a server-based application that sends print data in response to scan data received from the SP400X. The general process is as follows:

1. When turned on, the SP400X attempts to register with the server using network and server configuration parameters that are stored in the SP400X. 2. The SP400X queries the server for any updates (firmware or configuration, for example). 3. The SP400X is ready to scan. 4. After scanning a bar code, the SP400X sends the information contained in the bar code to the server. 5. The server responds with print data. 6. When the SP400X receives the print data, the SP400X signals the user that it is ready to print. 7. After printing (or timing out) the SP400X is ready to scan again. In order to perform this scan-print process, several steps must be taken to ensure that all of the devices in the process can communicate with each other. These steps are as follows:

Implement the server application. Refer to the Scan Print Protocol document, available at www.handheldgroup.com/manuals. Configure the SP400X devices to communicate with the server application. Design the print templates. Configure the server application and SP400X devices to receive wireless updates (optional). Implement the server application The communication between the server application and the SP400X is implemented using the SP400X Scan Print Protocol (SPP). SPP is an ASCII-based protocol that contains a number of command and response pairs used to communicate with and configure the SP400X. A number of factors must be considered when designing the server application. The primary considerations are the number of devices that will be communicating with the server, and the desired response time of the server application. Refer to the Communication Protocols document for a detailed explanation of the protocol that needs to be implemented on the server. It is available at www.handheldgroup.com/manuals. In addition, a sample server application is available for download from this website. Configure the SP400X Handheld SP400X Series Configuration Software is available for download at the SP400X website (www.handheldgroup.com/manuals). This Windows-based software is used to configure the necessary device settings so that the SP400X can communicate with the server application. The settings that need to be configured fall into three categories:

Wireless settings: security type, ESSID and Encryption keys Server settings: primary and alternate registration servers, file server, application name Application settings: application name, print template 19 SP400X Series - 4. Configure the SP400X The Handheld SP400X Series Configuration Software connects to an SP400X device using a USB cable. The software allows the user to configure the above settings and perform diagnostic and maintenance functions on the SP400X. Refer to the Handheld SP400X Series Configuration Users Guide for details on istalling and using this software. It is available at www.handheldgroup.com/manuals. for brief instructions on configuring the server, see CONfIgURE THE sERvER. Design a custom print template Handheld SP400X Template Design Software is available for download at the SP400X website (www.handheldgroup.com/manuals). This Windows-based software is used to design a custom print template for your particular needs. It allows the user to create templates that consisstatic text and graphics and also dynamic text fields. The design software merges all the text and graphics into a single template which is stored on the device. The Handheld SP400X Series Template Design Software connects to tthe SP400X using a cable. The software allows the user to design and download templates and to perform maintenance functions. Refer to the Handheld SP400X Series Template Design Software Users Guide for details on installing and using this application, available at www.handheldgroup.com/manuals. for brief instructions ondesigning print templates, see DEsIgN PRINT TEMPlATEs. 20 SP400X Series - 5. Operate the SP400X 5. Operate the SP400X Turn on the SP400X Press the green Power button and hold for one second. All lights on the control panel and the tail lights will blink once, and the SP400X will emit a tone. The green Power light will continue to blink until the SP400X completes its initialization phase. The blue Wireless light will blink until the SP400X establishes wireless connectivity. When connected, the SP400X will emit a Lo-Hi tone. The SP400X is ready for use when the green Power light and the blue Wireless light stop blinking and remain solid. 21 SP400X Series - 5. Operate the SP400X Scan scan instructions The SP400X can scan most one-dimensional and two-dimensional bar code symbologies. See SP400X specifications for a complete list. 1. Aim the green light bar at the bar code. 2. Hold the SP400X 6 - 9 inches from the bar code. 3. Hold the SP400X at a slight angle (approximately 5 degrees) to the scan surface. NOTE: Hold steady for best results. When the scan is complete, the imager light will turn off, and the SP400X will emit a Hi tone. When the SP400X is ready to print, it will display green tail lights and emit a Hi tone. 22 SP400X Series - 5. Operate the SP400X NOTE: There are two ways to clear the bar code or symbol and prepare the SP400X to scan again:

Press the yellow CLEAR button. The red tail lights will flash once and the SP400X will emit a tone. Wait for the SP400X to time out and erase the scan from the memory. The SP400X will emit a Hi-Lo tone and the red tail lights will flash once. Scanning tips The SP400Xs scanner is similar to a digital camera in that it takes digital pictures of a bar code. Like a digital camera, the scanner should be held as still as possible when reading a bar code. The green light bar should be approximately centered on the bar code. The green light bar should cover approximately 3/4 of a wide linear bar code. The SP400X is capable of reading bar codes at a distance of from 2 - 12 inches, but 6 - 9 inches is the ideal range. Actual reading distances may vary depending on the dimensions of the bar code. Reading bar codes straight on is appropriate in many cases, but the reflected light can interfere with reading. Holding the SP400X at an angle of about 5 degrees to the bar code may give better results. The SP400X reads bar codes in an omnidirectional manner. This means the SP400X does not need to be pointed in the same direction as the bar code. The green light bar should be approximately centered on the bar code and cover approximately 3/4 of a wide bar code The SP400X reads bar codes in an omnidirectional manner 23 SP400X Series - 5. Operate the SP400X Print Print instructions 1. Locate a clean, flat surface near the bar code for printing. 2. Place the nose of the SP400X against the surface. The SP400X should rest at an angle of about 7 degrees from vertical. 3. Move the SP400X straight across the surface. 4. When the print is finished, the green light will turn off and the SP400X will emit a Hi tone. CAUTION: Maintain a relaxed wrist and hand posture and use low force when printing. Printing tips IMPORTANT:

Keep the printer wheel continuously in contact with the print surface while printing. 1. Print wheel Hold the SP400X so that the angle of the device to the surface is approximately 7 degrees. Do not push hard on the surface; light pressure will result in better prints, especially with soft packages. Do not rotate your wrist. Rotating your wrist while printing can cause skipping or incomplete prints. 24 SP400X Series - 5. Operate the SP400X If you perform a partial or incomplete print, the SP400X will time out, emit a Hi-Lo tone, and the red tail lights will flash once. Clear print data If you find that you have an incomplete print or do not wish to print, two options are available:

Press the yellow CLEAR button on the control panel, then scan and print again. The SP400X will emit a single mid-tone note and the green tail lights will turn off after the CLeAR button is pressed. Wait for the SP400X to time out and erase the scan from the memory. The SP400X will emit a Hi-Lo tone and the red tail lights will flash once, letting you know you can scan and print again. 25 SP400X Series - 5. Operate the SP400X Turn off the SP400X To turn off the SP400X, press and hold the green Power button for three seconds. IMPORTANT: Turn off the SP400X before disconnecting the battery cable.

IMPORTANT: Do not pull on the battery cable; pull on the battery cable connector that is plugged into the battery. 2. Release the fastener ends of the finger strap. 3. Loosen the finger strap by rotating the front buckle (finger strap buckle) outward about 90 degrees, and then pulling the strap free through the buckles with your fingers. Repeat on the buckle on the other side until the SP400X is loose enough to easily slide your fingers out. 4. Loosen the wrist strap until the hand can slide out freely. 5. Slide the hand and fingers backwards out of the SP400X. 6. Release and loosen the wrist case straps and slide the wrist case off the arm. 26 SP400X Series - 6. Maximize print quality 6. Maximize print quality for information about solving print problems, see PROblEMs PRINTINg. CAUTION: Handheld ink is not certified for application to people or animals. Do not intentionally print on any part of a person or animal. CAUTION: Do not print on food. The ink used in the SP400X is not approved for consumption. Handheld recommends testing the printed images for readability in your environment and on your material. Improving lighting conditions, optimizing font size, increasing the heat and air flow, reducing the humidity of the room, and choosing opaque, light-colored materials can all help improve readability of the printed image. Materials and technique for best results, do the following when printing:

Locate a clean, flat surface near the bar code to print on. Hold the SP400X so that the angle of the device to the surface is approximately 7 degrees. Pull the SP400X in a straight line until the print is complete; do not your rotate wrist or the SP400X during the print. Keep the printer wheel continuously in contact with the print surface while printing. Maintain a relaxed wrist and hand posture and use low force when printing. Maintain a constant speed when printing. To achieve the best possible readability, consider the following:

Magenta prints are easier to see than black prints on tan-colored surfaces like cardboard boxes. Prints on opaque white material show up best. Prints on dark surfaces are not very visible, especially if the surfaces are similar in color. NOTE: Prints on porous materials like cardboard and paper dry instantly, but prints on non-porous materials can take a few moments to dry. 27 SP400X Series - 7. Ensure optimal comfort 7. Ensure optimal comfort Ergonomic recommendations for optimal results and comfort, follow these ergonomic recommendations:

The SP400X is designed for scan and print applications. It is not recommended to be worn when performing keyboarding or other office-related tasks. If you experience discomfort, discontinue use of the SP400X and notify your supervisor immediately. If you experience persistent or recurring pain or discomfort that you think may be related to using the SP400X, you should promptly consult a qualified physician and, if available, your companys health and safety department. Adjust the SP400X finger strap so it is snug, but not too tight. The wrist strap should have light tension to keep the device against the knuckles without pressure. Maintain a relaxed, neutral posture while using the SP400X. Avoid making a tight fist. Select a comfortable print location:

Print at heights between elbow and shoulder level whenever possible. When printing at heights at or below elbow level, printing horizontally is recommended (on the top of the package, for example). When printing at heights above elbow level, printing vertically is recommended (on the side of the package, facing you, for example). When printing at heights lower than waist level, bending at the knees (not at the waist) is recommended. To avoid extended reaches, slide packages close to you before scanning and printing. Minimize bending the wrist to position the SP400X. Position hand in a light, relaxed fist when using the SP400X. Make a light fist when printing to keep the fingers out of the way and help stabilize the hand around the rudder and finger strap. To ensure good quality prints on different types of packages and to ensure comfort, use light pressure to maintain contact with the package when printing. Applying more force will not improve print quality. The SP400X can be worn on the right or left hand and arm. You may alternate wearing the SP400X on the right and left hand and arm. When handling boxes, lift with both hands and use good lifting techniques. Change your posture during the day by varying your tasks:

If your job requires standing for long periods, then sit during breaks. If your job requires standing in one position, place one foot on a box or a bar to shift your posture. If your job requires standing in one position, use an anti-fatigue mat to improve comfort. If your job requires you to walk, use cushioned insoles in your shoes to improve comfort. If gloves are worn while using the SP400X, ensure they fit properly. The gloves should conform to your fingers and not significantly bunch under the finger strap. The finger length of the gloves should be as 28 SP400X Series - 8. Maintain the SP400X 8.
