format 

The data format is the following: Tim B Suffix 

 

7.4.1 Baracoda 

Header 

It is a proprietary data encapsulation. It is necessary to activate the Baracoda header in 2 cases: 

 

to use the Baracoda keyboard emulation (Kemul) and Hyper terminal 

 

to use the acknowledgment function. 

You can configure Baracoda Header through BaracodaManager. 
The Baracoda header is enabled in default settings 
 

7.4.2  No data loss mode: 

Baracoda has developed a proprietary communication protocol in order to enhance the security of the 
Bluetooth transmission.  
Every barcode sent to the host must be acknowledged by the host (until then, the scanner will transmit it 
again and again).  
This acknowledgment is disabled in default settings. It is strongly recommended to set this protocol 
acknowledgment on when using the scanner with the BaracodaManager. 
Additionally, this protocol acknowledgment allows having an audio acknowledgment that the barcode has 
been successfully transmitted to the host.  
You can configure or disable the scanner acknowledgement through BaracodaManager. 
 

7.4.3  Prefix / suffix 

You can add a prefix and/or a suffix to every barcode sent to the host device.  
You can configure prefix/suffix through both BaracodaManager and programming guide. 
There is no prefix/suffix in default settings 
 

7.4.4 Barcode 

Identifier 

The scanner can transmit max. 3-digit barcode identifier code for different types of barcodes 
(symbologies).  
If the option is selected, the barcode identifier is added at the beginning of the barcode frame
