Chapter 1 Getting Started
Introduction
The FM30 scanner reads a 1D or 2D barcode by capturing its image. Adopting the advanced technology
independently developed by Newland Auto-ID Tech, it provides users with Level mode, Sense mode, Continuous mode
and Pulse mode, tailored to different scanning needs.
An illustrated introduction to the FM30 scanner is included in this chapter. If you have an FM30 scanner at hand, make
good use of it to develop a better understanding of this manual. This chapter is written for normal users, maintenance staff
and software developers.
Unpacking
Open the package and take out the scanner and its accessories. Check to make sure everything on the packing list is
present and intact. If any contents are damaged or missing, please keep the original package and contact your dealer
immediately for after-sales service.

Data Port Pinout
Driving the nTRIG pin (PIN 2) on the data port low for over 10ms causes the scanner to start a scan and decode session. If
barcode is decoded, the scanner waits for the voltage at the nTrig pin to turn high (or the trigger to be released) after sending
the data to the Host. If the trigger is released during a scan attempt, the scanner immediately stops decoding.
Next decode session does not happen until the scanner receives active trigger signal (driving the nTRIG pin low) again.
As a decode session involves image capture, barcode decoding and other steps, it is suggested that the minimum interval
between triggers should exceed 50ms.
5
Connecting the Scanner to a Host Device
The scanner must be connected to a host device in actual application, such as PC, POS or any intelligent
terminal with USB or RS-232 port, using a USB or RS-232 cable.

Introduction
There are three ways to configure the FM30: Barcode programming, command programming and Easyset programming.
Barcode Programming
The FM30 can be configured by scanning programming barcodes. All user programmable features/options are described
along with their programming barcodes/commands in the following sections.
This programming method is most straightforward. However, it requires manually scanning barcodes. As a result, errors are
more likely to occur.
Command Programming
The FM30 can also be configured by serial commands sent from the host device.
Users can design an application program to send those command strings to the scanners to perform device configuration.
EasySet Programming
Besides the two methods mentioned above, you can conveniently perform scanner configuration through EasySet too.
EasySet is a Windows-based configuration tool particularly designed for Newland products, enabling users to gain access
to decoded data and captured images and to configure scanners. For more information about this tool, refer to the EasySet
User Guide.

Enter Setup
The figure above is an example that shows you the programming barcode and command for the Enter Setup function:
Note: “@” included in the programming command indicates permanent setting which means the setting will not be lost by
removing power from the scanner or turning off or rebooting it; whereas “#” included in the programming command indicates
temporary setting which means the setting will be lost by removing power from the scanner or turning off or rebooting it.

Command Syntax
Prefix StorageType Tag SubTag {Data} [,SubTag {Data}] [;Tag SubTag {Data}] […] Suffix
StorageType: “@” (HEX: 40) or “#” (HEX: 23), 1 character. “@” means permanent setting which will not be lost by removing
power from the scanner or rebooting it; “#” means temporary setting which will be lost by removing power from the scanner
or rebooting it.
Tag: A 3-character case-sensitive field that identifies the desired command group. For example, all USB HID Keyboard
configuration settings are identified with a Tag of KBW.
SubTag: A 3-character case-sensitive field that identifies the desired parameter within the tag group. For example, the
SubTag for the keyboard layout is CTY.
Data: The value for a feature or parameter setting, identified by the Tag and SubTag.
Multiple commands can be issued within one Prefix/Suffix sequence. For configuration commands, only the Tag, SubTag,
and Data fields must be repeated for each command in sequence. If an additional command is to be applied to the same
Tag, then the command is separated with a comma (,) and only the SubTag and Data fields of the additional commands
are issued. If the additional command requires a different Tag field, the command is separated from previous command by
a semicolon (;).
Query Commands
For query commands, the entry in the Data field in the syntax above is one of the following characters means:
* (HEX: 2A) What is the scanner’s current value for the setting(s).
& (HEX: 26) What is the factory default value for the setting(s).
^ (HEX: 5E) What is the range of possible values for the setting(s).
15 ** Exit Setup
Enter Setup
The value of the StoreType field in a query command can be either “@” (HEX: 40) or “#” (HEX: 23).
A query command with the SubTag field omitted means to query all the settings concerning a tag. For example, to query
all the current settings about Code 11, you should enter 7E 01 30 30 30 30 40 43 31 31 2A 3B 03 (i.e.
~<SOH>0000@C11*;<ETX>).
Responses
Different from command sequence, the prefix of a response consists of the six characters of “<STX><SOH>0000” (HEX:
02 01 30 30 30 30).
The scanner responds to serial commands with one of the following three responses:
<ACK> (HEX: 06) Indicates a good command which has been processed.
<NAK> (HEX: 15) Indicates a good configuration command with its Data field entry out of the allowable range for this
Tag and SubTag combination (e.g. an entry for an inter-keystroke delay of 100 when the field will
only allow 2 digits), or an invalid query command.
When responding, the scanner echoes back the command sequence with the status character above inserted directly before
each of the punctuation marks (the comma or semicolon) in the command.
Examples
Example 1: Enable Code 11, set the minimum and maximum lengths to 12 and 22 respectively.
Enter: 7E 01 30 30 30 30 40 43 31 31 45 4E 41 31 2C 4D 49 4E 31 32 2C 4D 41 58 32 32 3B 03

Scan Mode
Level Mode: A trigger pull activates a decode session. The decode session continues until a barcode is decoded or you
release the trigger.
Sense Mode: The scanner activates a decode session every time it detects a barcode presented to it. The decode session
continues until a barcode is decoded or the decode session timeout expires. Reread Timeout can avoid undesired rereading
of same barcode in a given period of time. Image Stabilization Timeout gives the scanner time to adapt to ambient
environment after it decodes a barcode and “looks” for another. Image Change Trigger Sensitivity can change the Sense
Mode’s sensibility to changes in images captured, while IR Proximity Trigger Sensitivity can adjust the Sense Mode’s
sensibility in detecting barcodes presented to the scanner.
Continuous Mode: The scanner automatically starts one decode session after another. To suspend/resume barcode
reading, simply press the trigger. Reread Timeout can avoid undesired rereading of same barcode in a given period of time.

Decode Area
Whole Area Decoding: The scanner attempts to decode barcode(s) within its field of view, from the center to the periphery,
and transmits the barcode that has been first decoded.
Specific Area Decoding: The scanner attempts to read barcode(s) within a specified decoding area and transmits the
barcode that has been first decoded. This option allows the scanner to narrow its field of view to make sure it reads only
those barcodes intended by the user. For instance, if multiple barcodes are placed closely together, specific area decoding
in conjunction with appropriate pre-defined decoding area will insure that only the desired barcode is read.
If Specific Area Decoding is enabled, the scanner only reads barcodes that intersect the predefined decoding area. The
default decoding area is an area of 40% top, 60% bottom, 40% left and 60% right of the scanner’s field of view
You can define the decoding area using the Top of Decoding Area, Bottom of Decoding Area, Left of Decoding Area

Introduction
There are four options for USB connection:
USB HID Keyboard: The scanner’s transmission is simulated as USB keyboard input with no need for command
configuration or a driver. Barcode data could be entered by the virtual keyboard directly and it is also convenient for
the host device to receive data.
USB CDC: It is compliant with the standard USB CDC class specifications defined by the USB-IF and allows the host
device to receive data in the way as a serial port does. A driver is needed when using this feature.
HID POS (POS HID Barcode Scanner): It is based on the HID interface, with no need for a custom driver. It excels
virtual keyboard and traditional RS-232 interface in transmission speed.
IBM SurePOS: It conforms to IBM (now Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions) 4698 USB scanner interface
specifications.
When the scanner is connected to both USB and RS-232 ports on a host device, it will select the USB connection by default.

Code Page
Code pages define the mapping of character codes to characters. If the data received does not display with the proper
characters, it may be because the barcode being scanned was created using a code page that is different from the one the
host program is expecting. If this is the case, select the code page with which the barcodes were created by scanning the
appropriate barcode below. For PDF417, QR Code, Aztec and Data Matrix, besides setting the code page, you also need
to set the character encoding in the “Character Encoding” section in Chapter 6. This feature is only effective when Emulate

Introduction
You may use the Data Formatter to modify the scanner’s output. For example, you can use the Data Formatter to insert
characters at certain points in barcode data or to suppress/ replace/ send certain characters in barcode data as it is scanned.
Normally, when you scan a barcode, it gets outputted automatically; however, when you create a format, you must use a
“send” command (see the “Send Commands” section in this chapter) within the format programming to output data. Multiple
data formats can be programmed into the scanner. The maximum size of all data formats created is 2048 characters. By
default, the data formatter is disabled. Enable it when required. If you have changed data format settings, and wish to clear
all formats and return to the factory defaults, scan the Default Data Format code below.
There are two methods to program a data format: Programming with barcodes and programming with serial commands.
The following explains how to program a data format by scanning the specific barcodes. Scanning any irrelevant barcode
or failing to follow the setting procedure will result in programming failure. To find the alphanumeric barcodes needed to
create a data format, see the “Digit Barcodes” section in Appendix.
Step 9: Scan the Save barcode from the “Save/Cancel Barcodes” section in Appendix to save your data format.
Example: Program a Format_0 data format using formatter command type 6, Code 128 containing 10 characters applicable,
send all characters followed by “A”.
8. Scan the alphanumeric barcodes F141 Send all characters followed by “A” (HEX: 41)
To streamline the programming process, you may as well generate a batch barcode by inputting the command (e.g.
@DFMADD069990020010F141;) used to create a data format. See the “Use Batch Barcode” section in Chapter 9 to learn
how to put a batch barcode into use.
When creating multiple data formats sharing a label, the formats are separated from each other by a vertical bar (|) in the
batch command, e.g. @DFMADD069990029999F141|069990039999F142|169990049999F143;.
A data format can also be created by serial commands (HEX) sent from the host device. All commands must be entered
in uppercase letters.
Storage type: “@” (HEX: 40) or “#” (HEX: 23), 1 character. “@” means permanent setting which will not be lost by removing
power from the scanner or rebooting it; “#” means temporary setting which will be lost by removing power from the scanner
or rebooting it.
Data format label: “0” (HEX: 30) or “1” (HEX: 31) or “2” (HEX: 32) or ”3” (HEX: 33), 1 character. “0”, “1”, “2” and “3” represent
Format_0, Format_1, Format_2 and Format_3 respectively.
Symbology ID Number: The ID number of the symbology to which you want to apply the data format, 3 characters. 999
indicates all symbologies.
Data length: The length of data that will be acceptable for this symbology, 4 characters. 9999 indicates all lengths. For
example, 32 characters should be entered as 0032.
Formatter commands: The command string used to edit data. For more information, see the “Formatter Command Type
6” section in this chapter.
Example: Program a Format_0 data format using formatter command type 6, Code 128 containing 10 characters applicable,
send all characters followed by “A”.
Enter: 7E 01 30 30 30 30 40 44 46 4D 41 44 44 30 36 39 39 39 30 30 33 39 39 39 39 46 31 34 31 3B 03

(<STX><SOH>0000@DFMADD069990020010F141<ACK>;<ETX>)
When creating multiple data formats sharing a label, the formats are separated from each other by a vertical bar (|) in the
serial command.
Example: ~<SOH>0000@DFMADD069990020010F141|069990039999F142|069990049999F143;<ETX>
You may wish to require the data to conform to a data format you have created. The following settings can be applied to
your data format:
Enable Data Formatter, Required, Keep Prefix/Suffix: Scanned data that meets your data format requirements is
modified accordingly and gets outputted along with prefixes and suffixes (if prefix and suffix are enabled). Any data that
does not match your data format requirements generates an error beep (if Non-Match Error Beep is turned ON) and the
data in that barcode is not transmitted.
Enable Data Formatter, Required, Drop Prefix/Suffix: Scanned data that meets your data format requirements is modified
accordingly and gets outputted without prefixes and suffixes (even if prefix and suffix are enabled). Any data that does not
match your data format requirements generates an error beep (if Non-Match Error Beep is turned ON) and the data in that
barcode is not transmitted.
Enable Data Formatter, Not Required, Keep Prefix/Suffix: Scanned data that meets your data format requirements is
modified accordingly and gets outputted along with prefixes and suffixes (if prefix and suffix are enabled). Barcode data that
does not match your data format requirements is transmitted as read along with prefixes and suffixes (if prefix and suffix are
enabled).
Enable Data Formatter, Not Required, Drop Prefix/Suffix: Scanned data that meets your data format requirements is
modified accordingly and gets outputted without prefixes and suffixes (even if prefix and suffix are enabled). Barcode data
that does not match your data format requirements is transmitted as read along with prefixes and suffixes (if prefix and suffix
are enabled).
** Format_0
Format_1
Format_2
Format_3
For example, you may have set your scanner to use the data format you saved as Format_3. You can switch to Format_1
for a single trigger pull by scanning the Single Scan – Format_1 barcode below. The next barcode that is scanned uses
Format_1, then reverts back to Format_3.
Note: This setting will be lost by removing power from the scanner, or turning off/ rebooting the device.
Delete one data format: Scan the Clear One barcode, a numeric barcode (0-3) and the Save barcode. For example, to
delete Format_2, you should scan the Clear One barcode, the 2 barcode and the Save barcode

This example shows a barcode that has spaces in the data. You may want to remove the spaces before sending the data.
Using the barcode above:
<CR>
E4 Replace characters
Syntax= E4nnxx1xx2yy1yy2…zz1zz2(nn: The total count of the number of characters (characters to be replaced plus
replacement characters; xx1: The characters to be replaced, xx2: The replacement characters, continuing through zz1 and
zz2)
If the barcode has characters that the host application does not want included, you can use the E4 command to replace
those characters with something else. In this example, you will replace the zeros in the barcode above with carriage returns.
02 is the total count of characters to be replaced, plus the replacement characters (0 is replaced by CR, so total characters=2)
0D is the hex value for a CR (the character that will replace the 0)
Syntax=BAnnNN1SS1NN2SS2
nn: The count of replacements to be made, if nn=00 or nn>=the number of occurrences of a string to be replaced, then
replace all occurrences of that string.
SS1: The ASCII hex value of each character in the string to be replaced.
NN2: The length of replacement string, NN2>=0. To replace string “SS1” with NUL (i.e. deIete string “SS1”), you should set
NN2 to 00 and leave out SS2.
SS2: The ASCII hex value of each character in the replacement string.
From the current cursor position, search forward for the occurrence of “SS1” string (of length “NN1”) and replace the string
with “SS2” string (of length “NN2”) in the output message until every “SS1” stringis replaced or the count of replacements
made reaches “nn” times, without moving the cursor.
If the barcode has a string of characters that the host application does not want included, you can use the BA command to
replace the string with something else. In this example, you will replace the “23”s in the barcode above with “ABC”s.
00 is the count of replacements to be made, 00 means to replace all occurrences of that string
If the barcode has a string of characters that the host application wants removed, you can use the BA command to replace
the string with NUL. In this example, you will remove the first occurrence of “23” in the barcode above.
00 is the length of the replacement string, 00 means to replace the string to be replaced with NUL
EF Insert a delay
Inserts a delay of up to 49,995 milliseconds (in multiples of 5), starting from the current cursor position. This command can
only be used with USB HID Keyboard.
Send the first 5 characters in a barcode, wait for 1s, then send the rest of the barcode data.
00 is the number of characters that will not be sent at the end of the message
Syntax=B5nnssxx (nn: The number of keys pressed (without key modifiers); ss: the key modifier from the table below; xx:
the key number from the “Unicode Key Maps” in Appendix.)
Insert a key stroke or combination of key strokes. Key strokes are dependent on your keyboard (see the “Unicode Key Maps”
in Appendix). This command can only be used with USB HID Keyboard.
Key Modifiers
No Key Modifier 00
Shift Left 01
Shift Right 02
Alt Left 04
Alt Right 08
Control Left 10
Control Right 20
For example, B501001F inserts an “a” on a U.S. style keyboard. B5 = the command, 01 = number of keys pressed (without
the key modifier), 00 is No Key Modifier, and 1F is the “a” key. If an “A” were to be inserted, B501011F or B501021F would
be entered.
If there are two keystrokes, the syntax would change from Syntax=B5nnssxx for one keystroke to Syntax=B5nnssxxssxx.
An example that would insert “aA” is as follows: B502001F011F.
Note: Key modifiers can be added together when needed. Example: Shift Left + Alt Left + Control Left =15.
Introduction
A 1D barcode could contain digits, letters, symbols, etc. A 2D barcode could contain more data, such as Chinese characters
and other multi-byte characters. However, in real applications, they do not and should not have all information we need,
such as barcode type, data acquisition time and delimiter, in order to keep the barcodes short and flexible.
Preffix and suffix are how to fulfill the needs mentioned above. They can be added, removed and modified while the original
barcode data remains intact.
2. Append prefix/suffix
3. Pack data
Global Settings
Enable/Disable All Prefixes/Suffixes
Enable All Prefixes/Suffixes: Allow to append Code ID prefix, AIM ID prefix, custom prefix/suffix and terminating character
to the barcode data before the transmission.
Prefix Sequence
Custom Prefix
Enable/Disable Custom Prefix
If custom prefix is enabled, you are allowed to append to the data a user-defined prefix that cannot exceed 10 characters.
For example, if the custom prefix is “AB” and the barcode data is “123”, the Host will receive “AB123”.
To set a custom prefix, scan the Set Custom Prefix barcode then the numeric barcodes corresponding to the hexadecimal
value of a desired prefix then the Save barcode.
3. Scan the numeric barcodes “4”, “3”, “4”, “F”, “4”, “4”, “4” and “5” from the “Digit Barcodes” section in
Appendix.
4. Scan the Save barcode from the “Save/Cancel Barcodes” section in Appendix.
AIM ID Prefix
AIM (Automatic Identification Manufacturers) ID defines symbology identifier (For the details, see the “AIM ID Table”
section in Appendix). If AIM ID prefix is enabled, the scanner will add the symbology identifier before the scanned data
after decoding.
Code ID Prefix
Code ID can also be used to identify barcode type. Unlike AIM ID, Code ID is user programmable. Code ID can only consist
of one or two English letters.
For the information of default Code IDs, see the “Code ID Table” section in Appendix.
Modify Code ID
See the examples below to learn how to modify a Code ID and restore the default Code IDs of all symbologies.
3. Scan the numeric barcodes “7” and “0” from the “Digit Barcodes” section in Appendix.
4. Scan the Save barcode from the “Save/Cancel Barcodes” section in Appendix.
1D symbologies:
2D symbologies:
Modify QR Code ID
Modify GM Code ID
Postal symbologies:
Custom Suffix
Enable/Disable Custom Suffix
If custom suffix is enabled, you are allowed to append to the data a user-defined suffix that cannot exceed 10 characters.
For example, if the custom suffix is “AB” and the barcode data is “123”, the Host will receive “123AB”.
To set a custom suffix, scan the Set Custom Suffix barcode then the numeric barcodes corresponding to the hexadecimal
value of a desired suffix then the Save barcode.
Data Packing
Introduction
Data packing is designed for a specific group of users who want to have the data packed before transmission. Data packing
influences data format, so it is advised to disable this feature when it is not required.
Enable Data Packing, Format 1: Transmit decoded data with the packet format 1 defined below.
STX: 0x02
ATTR: 0x00
LEN: Barcode data length is expressed in 2 bytes ranging from 0x0000 (0) to 0xFFFF (65535).
AL_TYPE: 0x36
Enable Data Packing, Format 2: Transmit decoded data with the packet format 2 defined below.
STX: 0x02
ATTR: 0x00
LEN: Barcode data length is expressed in 2 bytes ranging from 0x0000 (0) to 0xFFFF (65535).
AL_TYPE: 0x3B
A terminating character such as carriage return (CR) or carriage return/line feed pair (CRLF) can only be used to mark the
end of data, which means nothing can be added after it.
To set a terminating character suffix, scan the Set Terminating Character Suffix barcode then the numeric barcodes
corresponding to the hexadecimal value of a desired terminating character then the Save barcode.
3. Scan the numeric barcodes “0” and “A” from the “Digit Barcodes” section in Appendix.
4. Scan the Save barcode from the “Save/Cancel Barcodes” section in Appendix.
Introduction
Batch programming enables users to integrate a batch of commands into a single batch barcode.
2. Each command is terminated by a semicolon (;). Note that there is no space between a command and its terminator
semicolon.
Example: Create a batch barcode for Illumination Always On, Sense Mode, Decode Session Timeout = 2s:
@ILLSCN2;SCNMOD2;ORTSET2000;
When setting up the scanner with the above configuration, scan the Enable Batch Barcode barcode and then the batch
barcode generated.
For more information, refer to the “Use of Programming Command” section in Chapter 3.
Example: Create a batch barcode for lllumination Always On, Sense Mode, Decode Session Timeout = 2s:

Save/Cancel Barcodes
After reading numeric barcode(s), you need to scan the Save barcode to save the data. If you scan the wrong digit(s), you
can either scan the Cancel barcode and then start the configuration all over again, or scan the Delete the Last Digit
barcode and then the correct digit, or scan the Delete All Digits barcode and then the digits you want.
For instance, after reading the Maximum Length barcode and numeric barcodes “1”, “2” and “3”, you scan:
Delete the Last Digit: The last digit “3” will be removed.
Cancel: The maximum length configuration will be cancelled. And the scanner is still in the setup mode.
