Using the ArgoxScan AR-3000
The ArgoxScan can automatically scan barcode at a distance.
Simply aim and pull the trigger. Code scanning is performed
along the center of the light bar emitted from the reading
window. This bar must cover the entire code.
Recommended Steps
When the required settings have been configured, all settings
are stored in non- volatile memory of the scanner after
reading EXIT Label. Recommended steps are as follows.
1) Set the right host interface for your scanner.
(The scanner is in factory default shown as bold label)
2) Set interface to optimize protocol of the scanner with
your host in interface section.
3) Set system control of the scanner, such as specific
adjustments double confirm, indicator and scanning
mode which you prefer using in the system control
section.
4) Set code options of the scanner for your usage in the
code option section. You must make sure to enable the
symbology first, then Min./Max. code length, code ID
checksum and truncate digits are also converted.
5) Set string format of the scanner, such as preamble,
postamble Prefix, suffix, code ID and code name
transmission for your application in the string format
section.
Note: If it stil does not work properly. Please contact your
dealer for further information.

Introduction
Installation RS-232
1) Disconnect power to the terminal/computer.
2) Connect the appropriate interface cable and external
power supply (DC adapter) to the scanner.
3) Plug the serial connector into the serial port on the back
of your computer/terminal. Tighten the two screws to
secure the connector to the port.
4) Plug the power pack into a power source.
5) Once the scanner has been fully connected, turn the
terminal/computer power back on.
USB HID (Simulate with keyboard wedge)
1) Connect the USB cable between scanner and PC.
2) Windows will automatically detect the USB device.
USB Com
1) Connect the USB cable between scanner and PC.
2) Windows will automatically detect the USB device.
Note: If any of the above operations is incorrect, turn off the
power immediately and check any improper
connections. Go through all above steps again.

Programming the AR-3000
To program the AR-3000, you must scan a series of
programming barcode in the correct order. On the last page
of this manual, you will see a table of alphanumeric barcodes,
which are used to program the various options presented.
To program each option, you must:
1. Scan the Program barcode on the parameter setting part.
2. Enter the option mode by scanning the Option Bar Code
(also on the Parameter setting part).
3. To the right of the option barcode, the necessary
alphanumeric inputs are listed. Scan these alphanumeric
entries from the last page . To confirm above steps, you
must scan the Finish barcode on the last page.
4. Once you have finished programming. Scan the Exit
barcode, listed on the lower right hand corner of each
parameter setting part.
