Getting Started

Introduction

The Quick Check®890 Verifier System (QC890) is a professional quality control

system for verifying the readability and standards compliance of printed linear

barcode symbols. This verification system implements an integrated approach

that consists of the QC890 Verifier unit and the Quick Check®ImageData (QCID)

software.

The QC890 system offers ease of use, stability and repeatability, flexibility,

increased user features and control, and quality testing of the most common

industry applications and symbologies.

Unpacking the QC890 Verifier

After you open the shipping carton, take the following steps:

• Check for damage during shipment. Report damage immediately to the

carrier who delivered the carton.

• Make sure the items in the carton match your order.

• Save the shipping container for later storage or shipping.

The standard accessories that should be included in your kit are:

• Quick Start Guide

• CD with QCID software and user documentation

• DC power supply with cord (includes adapters for different countries)

• Interface cables (USB and RS-232)

• Plastic gauge

•Metalruler

• Reference test symbols

• Reflectance page

• Certificate of Conformance

QC890 Verifier Features

The QC890 Verifier is a full-featured barcode verification system compatible with

all major linear barcode symbologies. It is both a quick and easy-to-use pass/fail

analyzer of barcode symbols and a powerful measuring tool for detailed testing

of barcode symbols.

The QC890 Verifier provides all of the information you need to interpret overall

symbol quality.

1 - 2 Quick Check® 890 User’s Guide

The verifier tests the following symbologies:

Using the QC890 Verifier

The QC890 Verifier offers a choice of Automatic, 3, 5, 6, and 10 mil aperture

settings. External devices (i.e., mouse wands, pen wands, and linear imagers)

are available with apertures designed to match the most common X dimensions.

Wands are available with apertures of 3 (Mouse Wand only), 5, 6, 10, and 20

(Mouse Wand only) mil. These aperture sizes correspond to those specified in

ISO/IEC 15416 Barcode Print Quality Test Specification - Linear Symbols. The

proper aperture should be selected based on the X dimension range shown in

the table in the Pen/Mouse Wand Aperture Selection (page A-1) section.

Choosing an inappropriate scanning aperture results in inaccurate quality

measures. Too small an aperture may detect reflectance non-uniformities (spots

and voids) that would not affect scanning with a "normal" aperture size. Too large

an aperture will not be able to resolve individual elements of the symbol.

Scan Button

The scan button on top of the unit wakes the unit from power down. A first press

of the button turns on illumination and a second press activates reading

capabilities.

Scan Button LEDs

• Red LED - error conditions

• Green LED - good symbols and configuration changes

User LED Indications

Audio Sound

An audio signal (default ON) provides a quick indication if a scan passes or fails

the current test. After a scan, one short, high pitch beep indicates that the

symbol passes an appropriate group of tests, while one long, low pitch beep

indicates that it fails.

Special Features

Reflectometer Mode

In the Reflectometer mode, the QC890 operates as a free-running reflectometer.

See "Reflectometer Mode" on page 3-6 for additional information.

Unrecognized Symbology Mode

The QC890 analyzes bar/space patterns that are not decodable or are not

among the unit’s available symbologies. This technical feature is useful for

making contrast measurements, for which decoding is not necessary, on

damaged or partial symbols, printer test patterns, and new or developing

symbologies. We recommend this feature only be enabled for these purposes.

Physical Connections

A DC power barrel on the back of the unit connects to a power supply for external

power and battery charging.

The DB9 port on the unit connects to the pen wand, mouse wand, or linear

imager. Refer to "Scanning Properly Using the QC3800VE Linear Imager:" on

page 3-5. If you are using any of these devices, refer to "Scanning Properly

Using a Pen/Mouse Wand" on page 3-3 for additional information.

The RJ45 ten pin connector provides the USB or RS-232 serial interface to the

host. Refer to "USB Communication Interface" on page 2-2 and "RS-232 Serial

Communication Interface" on page 2-3 for details on connecting your unit.

Specifications

Internal Battery

The battery is factory replaceable only. You must return your unit to Hand Held

Products for replacement (see Technical Assistance on page 5-1).

Charging the Battery

The battery may be in an unknown charge state at delivery. We recommend that

you charge the battery for at least 2 hours prior to use. You may use the unit

while charging the battery.

To charge the battery:

1. Plug the power supply into the port on the back of the unit.

2. Plug in the power supply to the AC main source.

The QC890 Verifier uses a rechargeable battery. The QC890 Verifier can be

operated from the battery or power supply. With a properly charged battery, the

unit operates for a minimum of 8 hours. When not in use, you can leave the unit

connected to the charger.

Powering On the QC890 Verifier

• If the power supply is attached and plugged into an AC source, the QC890

Verifier is on.

• If the QC890 Verifier is attached to the USB host with power on, the verifier

is on.

• If the QC890 Verifier is operating using the battery, it shuts itself off after 15

minutes of inactivity to conserve battery power. Pressing the scan button on

top of the unit one time powers up the unit from the power down mode.

Bluetooth®.

2 - 2 Quick Check® 890 User’s Guide

USB Communication Interface

For the USB interface, the Hand Held Products CDC-ACM driver must be

installed prior to using the QC890 Verifier. This driver is copied to the following

directory during install:

<install location>\Drivers\USBCOMPortEmulation/hhpcdc.inf

The default <install location> is C:\Program Files\Hand Held Products\Quick

Check ImageData\drivers\USBCOMPortEmulation.

Connect the QC890 Verifier to the host as shown in the illustration below.

USB COM Port Emulation

Scan the following barcode to program the QC890 Verifier to emulate an RS-

232-based COM Port. After connecting the QC890 Verifier and upon successful

installation of the USB driver, the driver will use the next available COM Port.

USB COM Port Emulation is the default interface for the QC890 Verifier.

Note: No additional configuration (e.g., baud rate) is necessary.

Review the file, readme.rtf, in the install location prior to running the

QCID.
