Working via Bluetooth

Get Started: After connecting Bluetooth with your device (please refer to the "Bluetooth Connection" section), you can start to use it. (US keyboard is the default). If you use another type of keyboard, please refer to the "Keyboard Language Type" section to set the keyboard language before use.

Low Voltage Alarm

The scanner will make 2 beeps to remind you that it is under low voltage. Plug in the USB cable to charge its power.

Firmware Version

Read the command barcode below to check the scanner's firmware version.

Note: The programming barcodes below are applied for version NT_ZNCWBSDk8815.

Barcode Programming

Netum barcode scanners are factory programmed for the most common terminal and communications settings. If you need to change these settings, programming is accomplished by scanning the barcodes in this guide. An asterisk (*) next to an option indicates the default setting.

Bluetooth Connection

Pairing with Windows XP or Windows 7/8/10

  1. Power on the scanner. After a few seconds, the blue indicator will keep flashing.
  2. Enter the `Control Panel` -> `Devices and Printers` -> `Add a device` -> select `Bluetooth` to add the device to your computer.
  3. Click `Next`. The scanner will beep to indicate a successful pairing, and the light will turn solid blue.

Android: Connect Android Device in Basic Mode

  1. Power on the scanner. Make sure the scanner is discoverable (unpaired). After a few seconds, the blue indicator will keep flashing.
  2. On your Android device: Touch Home | Menu | Settings | Wireless & Networks | Bluetooth settings.
  3. Make sure the device has Bluetooth "On". Scan for devices.
  4. In the list of found devices, select "Netum Bluetooth". Tap Pair.
  5. The scanner will connect to the Android device.
  6. The scanner will beep once after it has connected and is ready to scan barcodes.

Pairing with your iOS Device

  1. Power on the scanner. Make sure the scanner is discoverable (unpaired). After a few seconds, the blue indicator will keep flashing.
  2. On your iOS device: Click on "Bluetooth" in the left column. Your iOS device will automatically start searching for any Bluetooth Devices in the area.
  3. Once you have identified "Netum Bluetooth" on the screen, tap on it, and you will automatically be connected. The scanner's LED light will turn solid blue.

Operation Modes

BT HID Mode (Default)

No software installation is needed. It connects to most devices with a Bluetooth or USB interface. In this mode, the scanner interacts with the device like a keyboard. Therefore, the scanner will work with Safari, Notes, and any other applications that support an active cursor.

[Scan barcode for BT HID Mode Note: This command barcode is only applicable for Bluetooth Wireless Mode]

Keyboard Language Type

In order to let the scanner upload codes correctly, you must set the keyboard language before use. For example, if you use a French Keyboard, just scan the barcode for "French Keyboard". After that, the scanner will upload barcodes according to the French keyboard layout. American Keyboard is set by default; if you use a US keyboard, you can skip this part.

Application Mode (SPP)

For Android or Windows only. Software installation is required. If you have an application that supports mobile scanners, this is the recommended mode.

Working Mode

If you are heading to a working area that lies outside the signal range, you may activate the offline mode of the scanner by following the steps described below. Under this enhanced offline mode, all scanned data will be stored directly into the buffer memory of the device. Furthermore, the data entries will be permanently saved in the buffer memory prior to manual upload to the workstation, so that you may upload them as many times as you like.

Transmit Code ID Character

A code ID character identifies the code type of a scanned barcode. This can be useful when decoding more than one code type. The code ID character is inserted between the prefix character (if selected) and the decoded symbol.

Symbol Code ID Character

AIM Code ID Character

Each AIM Code Identifier contains the three-character string ]cm where: ] = Flag Character, c = Code Character (see Table 4-4), m = Modifier Character.

Code 39 Check Digit Verification

When this feature is enabled, the scan engine checks the integrity of all Code 39 symbols to verify that the data complies with the specified check digit algorithm. Only those Code 39 symbols which include a modulo 43 check digit are decoded. Only enable this feature if your Code 39 symbols contain a module 43 check digit.

Enable/Disable Code 39 Full ASCII

Code 39 Full ASCII is a variant of Code 39 which pairs characters to encode the full ASCII character set.

Note: Trioptic Code 39 and Code 39 Full ASCII cannot be enabled simultaneously. If you get an error beep when enabling Code 39 Full ASCII, disable Trioptic Code 39 and try again.

Set Lengths for Code 93

The length of a code refers to the number of characters (i.e., human-readable characters), including check digit(s), that the code contains. Lengths for Code 93 may be set for any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a specific range.

Code 11

Set Lengths for Code 11

Set lengths for Code 11 to any length, one or two discrete lengths, or lengths within a specific range. Scan this option to decode Code 11 symbols containing any number of characters within the scan engine capability.

Code 11 Check Digit Verification

This feature allows the scan engine to check the integrity of all Code 11 symbols to verify that the data complies with the specified check digit algorithm. This selects the check digit mechanism for the decoded Code 11 barcode. The options are to check for one check digit, check for two check digits, or disable the feature.

Hide Prefix or Suffix Digits

The start/middle/end of barcode characters can be hidden. After scanning the hide set barcode, scan a double-digit hexadecimal number that you want to hide (e.g., to hide 4 characters, scan 0, 4).

Procedures to Hide Chars of Barcode Start/Middle/End:

  1. Scan the `Hide Barcode Start / Middle Start / Middle length / End Chars` symbol.
  2. Determine the hex value for the length you wish to enter (e.g., hide 4 chars, scan 0,4; hide 12 chars, scan 0,C).
  3. Scan the 2-digit hex value from the Numeric Bar Codes.
  4. Scan the `Output Format` barcode to enable or cancel the hide char function.

Custom Prefix and Suffix

Maximum of 20 prefixes and 20 suffixes can be added to scan data for use in data editing. To set these values, scan a double-digit hexadecimal number (i.e., two barcodes) that corresponds to ASCII values. See Table 1 and Numeric Bar Codes in the appendix.

To Add a Prefix or Suffix:

  1. Scan command barcode of "Add Prefix" or "Add Suffix".
  2. Check the prefix or suffix hex value from the ASCII Chart.
  3. Scan the 2-digit hex value from the Numeric Bar Codes.
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for all prefixes or suffixes you want to add.
  5. Scan the `Output Format` barcode to enable or disable prefix/suffix output.

Example on how to add normal prefix or suffix on barcode "123456789"

Add " A" and "B" as prefixes and "!" as suffix:

  1. Scan command barcode of "Add Prefix".
  2. Check the prefix hex value from the ASCII Chart: A - "4","1"; B - "4","2".
  3. Scan the 2-digit hex value from the Numeric Bar Codes.
  4. Scan the `Output Format` barcode to enable prefix output. [Scan barcode for Enable Prefix output]
  5. Scan command barcode of "Add Suffix" to add "!" as suffix. [Scan barcode for Add Suffix]
  6. Check the suffix hex value from the ASCII Chart: ! - "2","1".
  7. Scan the 2-digit hex value from the Numeric Bar Codes.
  8. Scan the `Output Format` barcode to enable suffix output. [Scan barcode for Enable Suffix output]
  9. Scan the barcode, and you will get AB123456789!.

Example on how to add Combination Key suffix for barcode "123456789"

Add "Ctrl+P" on "123456789" as suffix:

  1. Scan command barcode of "Add Suffix" to add "Ctrl+P" as suffix. [Scan barcode for Add Suffix]
  2. Check the suffix hex value from the ASCII Chart: Ctrl+P - "9","7","5","0".
  3. Scan the 4-digit hex value from the Numeric Bar Codes.
  4. Scan the `Output Format` barcode to enable suffix output. [Scan barcode for Enable Suffix output]
  5. Scan "Keyboard Ctrl Combination Key".
  6. Scan the barcode 123456789. (Test it on Excel)
