INTRODUCTION  
The IS4220 ScanGlove® is a fully automatic single-line laser barcode scanner.  
It is designed to be used as a “hands-free” wearable scanner or a stationary  
desktop scanner.  
Every ScanGlove is equipped with ScanQuest®, a patented activation technology  
that allows the scanner to read bar codes automatically as the operator presents  
the bar code to the scanner. Additional features include; 52 scan lines a  
second, short or long range activation and two universal glove sizes with left and  
right-hand capabilities.  
The IS4220 has built in decoding for applications that use a RS232, Keyboard

SCANNER INSTALLATION  
1. Turn off power to the host system.  
2. Connect the communication cable to the proper port on the host device.  
3. Turn on power to the host system.  
When the IS4220 first receives power, the red LED will flash, the  
green LED will flash, and then the scanner will beep once.  
Caution:  
To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected  
to the scanner must meet the requirements for SELV (Safety Extra Low  
Voltage) according to EN 60950.  
To maintain compliance with standard CSA C22.2 No. 950/UL 1950 and  
norm EN 60950, the power source should meet applicable performance  
requirements for a limited power source.  
To maintain compliance with federal regulations 21 CFR, Part 1040.10,  
section (f)(6) the scanner must be plugged into an electrical outlet with a  
switch accessible to the user or be powered by a host system containing  
a switch that will disable power to the scanner.

SCANNER CONFIGURATION TO THE HOST SYSTEM  
The IS4220 is shipped from the factory pre-programmed to a set of default  
parameters. It may be necessary to change the default parameters to match the  
host system’s requirements or to enable additional scanner functions. For a list  
of possible parameter settings, refer to the Default Settings section of this guide.  
Important notes for the -07 and -08, IS4220 USB Interfaces.  
The IS4220-07 and the IS4220-08 are pre-programmed for USB  
Emulation before leaving the factory. If the recall defaults bar code is  
scanned the unit must be re-programmed for USB Emulation before  
enabling or disabling any additional features documented in the  
programming guide (MLPN 00-02343).  
To re-program the unit for USB Keyboard Emulation or USB POS  
Emulation refer to the IS4220 USB Addendum (MLPN 00-02044)  
for the IS4220 Programming Guide.  
To modify the scanner’s default parameters follow the steps below using the bar  
codes located in the programming guide (MLPN 00-02343).  
1. Scan the ENTER PROGRAM MODE bar code to enter programming mode. The  
scanner will beep three times.  
2. Scan the bar code(s) for the desired parameter(s). The scanner will beep  
once.  
3. Scan the EXIT PROGRAM MODE bar code to exit and save the new parameter  
settings. The scanner will beep three times.  
If during programming there is a need to return the scanner to the  
original factory settings, scan the recall defaults bar code in the  
programming guide. All settings selected during that session or any  
previous sessions are discarded when you scan the recall defaults  
code.  
Please read the warning above for the IS4220-07 and -08 models  
before using the recall defaults bar code.

No.  
Description  
Green LED  
When a bar code is read successfully the green LED will flash.  
Red LED  
When the red LED is illuminated, the laser is on.  
Red Output Window (Laser Aperture)  
Infrared Sensor (IR)  
If a specified time has elapsed without any scanning, the unit will  
enter a “standby” mode. To reactivate the unit, place an object in  
front of the IR sensor. The red LED will turn on when the scanner  
is ready to scan.  
Communication/Power Cable  
This cable’s termination is application dependent.

VISUAL INDICATORS  
There is a red and a green LED located on the top of the scanner. When the  
scanner is on, the flashing or constant illumination of the LEDs indicates the  
status of the current scan and the scanner.  
Illumination of the LEDs will not occur if the scanner has  
remained dormant for a specified time and the scanner is  
not receiving power from the host. To reactivate the unit,  
direct the output window up then down toward the object.  
No Red LED  
When the scanner first receives power, the red LED will  
flash, followed by the green LED, and then the unit will  
beep once. The red LED will stay on after it flashes once.  
Red Flash;  
Green Flash;  
Steady Red  
When the laser is on, the red LED will be on. This occurs  
when an object is detected in the scan field. If the scanner  
cannot detect a bar code within approximately 2.5  
Steady Red  
seconds, the unit will go into a standby mode and the red  
LED will shut off indicating that the laser is no longer on.  
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the  
green LED will flash and the unit will beep once. If the  
green LED does not flash or the scanner does not beep,  
then the bar code was not successfully read.  
Steady Red  
LED; Green  
Flash  
When the red LED flashes several times while it rests  
upon a stationary surface, then an object is within the scan  
field and is activating the IR sensor repetitively.  
To eliminate this disturbance, direct the scan window  
toward a different location.  
Repetitive Red  
LED Flashing  
After a successful scan, the scanner transmits the data to  
the host device. When the host is not ready to receive the  
information, the green LED will remain on until data can  
transmit.

SIGNAUX OPTIQUES  
Sur la partie supérieure du scanner se trouvent une diode LED rouge et une  
diode LED verte. Quand le scanner est sous tension, les diodes rouge et verte  
clignotantes ou allumées vous informent sur l'état de palpage et de scanner.  
Ni la diode  
rouge, ni la  
diode verte  
n'est allumée  
Il existe deux raisons possibles pour que les diodes ne  
s'allu-ment pas. Si le scanner ne reçoit pas d'énergie de  
l'ordinateur PC, les diodes ne s'allument pas. Quand le  
scanner reçoit de l'énergie et ne s'allume cependant pas,  
le scanner est resté pendant une certaine période sans  
être utilisé et le laser et lemoteur sont désactivés. Pour  
réactiver l'unité, déplacer un objet devant le palpeur  
infrarouge ou prendre le scanner et diriger la fenêtre de  
palpage vers le bas.  
Diode rouge  
clignotante;  
diode verte  
clignotante;  
diode rouge  
reste allumée  
Quand le scanner reçoit pour la première fois de l'énergie,  
la diode rouge se met d'abord à clignoter, puis la diode  
verte. Ensuite, le scanner émet un bip sonore unique. Une  
fois cette séquence de démarrage effectuée, la diode  
rouge reste allumée pendant un certain temps indiquant  
que le laser est en service. Quand le scanner ne détecte  
aucun objet, la diode rouge et le laser s'éteignent.  
Diode rouge  
reste allumée  
Quand le laser est activé, la diode rouge s'allume  
également. C'est par exemple le cas quand un objet se  
trouve devant la fenêtre de palpage. Si, en l'espace de 2,  
5 secondes, aucun code barres n'est détecté, la diode  
rouge s'éteint, ce qui signifie que le laser est désactivé.  
Après lecture avec succès d'un code barres par le  
scanner, la diode verte se met à clignoter, suivie d'un bip  
sonore unique. Si la diode verte ne clignote pas ou quand  
aucun bip sonore n'est émis, cela signifie que le code  
barres n'a pas pu être lu avec succès.  
Diode rouge  
reste allumée;  
diode verte  
clignotante  
Quand la diode rouge clignote plusieurs fois pendant que  
l'appareil repose sur une surface non déplacée, un objet  
activant le palpeur infrarouge se trouve devant la fenêtre  
de palpage. Ceci peut se produire même quand le  
scanner se trouve sur une table ou un reposoir. Pour  
éliminer ce défaut, positionner le scanner de façon  
différente.  
Clignotement  
répété de la  
diode rouge  
Diode verte  
reste allumée  
Une fois le palpage effectué avec succès, le scanner  
transmetles donnéesà l'ordinateur PC. Si ce dernier n'est  
pas prêt à recevoir les données, la diode verte du scanner  
s'allume jusqu'à ce que les donnés puissent être  
transmises.

OPTISCHE ANZEIGEN  
Auf der Oberseite des Scanners befinden sich eine rote und eine grüne  
Leuchtdiodenanzeige. Ist der Scanner eingeschaltet, so geben Ihnen die  
blinkenden oder feststehenden Leuchtdiodenanzeigen Aufschluß über den  
Abtast und Scannerstatus.  
Es gibt zwei mögliche Gründe, weshalb die Leuchtdiodenan  
zeigen nicht aufleuchten. Bekommt der Scanner keine Energie  
vom PC, leuchten die Leuchtdiodenanzeigen nicht auf. Wenn  
der Scanner jedoch Energie bekommt und die  
Weder rote  
oder noch  
grüne  
Leuchtanzeige  
Leuchtdiodenanzeigen dennoch nicht aufleuchten, so ist der  
Scanner für einen bestimmten Zeitraum untätig geblieben, und  
Laser und Motor sind abgeschaltet. Zur Reaktivierung der Einheit  
sollten Sie ein Objekt vor dem Infrarot Sensor hin und  
herbewegen oder den Scanner aufnehmen und das  
Abtastfenster nach unten richten.

Wenn dem Scanner erstmalig Energie zugeführt wird, blinkt  
zunächst die rote Leuchtdiodenanzeige auf, gefolgt von der  
grünen Leuchtdiodenanzeige,und anschließend sendet der  
Scanner ein einmaliges Piep-Signal aus. Nach Ausführung  
dieser Startsequenz leuchtet die rote Leuchtdiodenanzeige für  
einen bestimmten Zeitraum auf und zeigt an, daß der Laser  
eingeschaltet ist. Wird dem Scanner kein Objekt präsentiert, so  
schalten sich die rote Leuchtdiode und der Laser ab.  
Leuchtanzeige

Wenn der Laser eingeschaltet ist, leuchtet auch die rote Leucht-  
diodenanzeige auf. Dies ist dann der Fall, wenn sich ein Objekt  
im Abtastfeld befindet. Wird innerhalb von ca. 2,5 Sekunden  
kein Barcode erfaßt, so erlischt die rote Leuchtdiodenanzeige,  
was bedeutet, daß der Laser nicht mehr eingeschaltet ist.

Nach erfolgreichem Lesen eines Barcodes durch den Scanner  
blinkt die grüneLeuchtdiodenanzeige auf, gefolgt von einem  
einmaligen Piep-Signal. Falls die grüne Leuchtdiodenanzeige  
nicht aufblinkt oder der Scanner kein einmaliges Piep-Signal  
aussendet, bedeutet dies, daß der Barcode nicht erfolgreich  
gelesen werden konnte.  
Blinkanzeige  
Wiederholte  
rote  
Blinkanzeigen  
Blinkt die rote Leuchtdiodenanzeige mehrmals auf, während das  
Gerät auf einer nichtbewegten Fläche liegt, so befindet sich ein  
Objekt inner halb des Abtastfeldes,das den Infrarot-Sensor  
aktiviert. Dies kann selbst dann vorkommen, wenn der Scanner  
auf dem Ladentisch oder dem Ablagegestell liegt. Um diese  
Störung zu beseitigen, sollten Sie den Scanner anders  
positionieren.  
Feststehende

Nach erfolgreichem Abtasten überträgt der Scanner die Daten an  
den PC. Ist der PC nicht zur Annahme der Daten bereit, so  
leuchtet die grüne Leuchtdiodenanzeige des Scanners solange  
auf, bis die Daten übertragen werden können.

SEGNALI OTTICI  
Sulla parte superiore dello scanner si trovano due diodi luminosi: uno rosso e  
uno verde. Quando lo scanner è inserito, i diodi luminosi, che possono o essere  
accesi in continuazione o lampeggiare, Vi informano sullo stato della scansione  
e dell’apparecchio.  
Vi sono due possibili cause se i diodi luminosi non sono  
accesi. Se lo scanner non viene alimentato dal PC i diodi  
luminosi non sono accesi. Se invece lo scanner è  
alimentato e ciònonostante Idiodi luminosi non sono accesi,  
lo scanner è rimasto disattivato per un determinato periodo  
e laser e motore sono spenti. Per riattivare l’unità  
dovreste muovere un oggetto davanti al sensore a  
infrarossi oppure prendere lo scanner e rivolgere il  
finestrino di scansione verso il basso.  
Né il diodo  
luminoso rosso  
né quello verde  
sono accesi  
Quando lo scanner viene alimentato per la prima volta,  
lampeggia dapprima il diodo luminoso rosso e quindi  
quello verde. Poi lo scanner emette un unico segnale  
beep Dopo l’esecuzione di questa sequenza di avvio il  
diodo luminoso rosso si accende per un determinato  
periodo ed indica che il laser è inserito. Se allo scanner  
non viene presentato nessun o ggetto, il diodo luminoso  
rosso e il laser si spengono.  
Il diodo luminoso  
rosso lampeggia;  
il diodo luminoso  
verde lampeggia;  
il diodo luminoso  
verde è acceso  
Il diodo  
Quando il laser è attivato, è acceso anche il diodo  
luminoso rosso luminoso rosso. Questo si ha quando un oggetto si trova  
nella zona di scansione. Se entro ca. 2, 5 secondi non  
viene registrato nessun codice a barre, il diodo luminoso  
rosso si spegne; ciò significa che il laser non è più attivato.  
è acceso  
Il diodo luminoso  
Dopo la lettura riuscita di un codice a barre da parte dello scanner  
rosso è acceso; il il diodo luminoso verde lampeggia e quindi viene emesso un unico  
segnale beep. Se il diodo luminoso verde non lampeggia oppure  
lo scanner non emette un segnale beep, ciò significa che la lettura  
del codice a barre non è riuscita.  
diodo luminoso  
verde lampeggia  
Il diodo luminoso  
verde è acceso  
Dopo la scansione riuscita lo scanner trasmette i dati al  
PC. Se il PC non è pronto per accettare i dati, il diodo  
luminoso verde dello scanner è acceso fino a che i dati  
possono essere trasmessi.  
Se il diodo luminoso rosso lampeggia ripetutamente  
mentre l’app-arecchio si trova su una superficie che non si  
muove, vi è un oggetto all’ interno della zona di scansione  
che attiva il sensore a infrarossi. Ciò può essere  
addirittura il caso quando lo scanner si trova sul banco  
oppure nel suo supporto. Per eliminare questa anomalia  
basta cambiare la posizione dello scanner.  
Il diodo  
luminoso rosso  
lampeggia

AUDIBLE INDICATORS  
The scanner provides sounds to signal certain conditions. To change the  
volume (four settings are available) or turn the beeper off, refer to Beeper Tones  
in the Programming Guide.  
One Beep  
When the scanner first receives power, the red LED will  
flash, followed by the green LED, and then the scanner  
will beep once. After the scanner performs this start-up  
sequence, the scanner is ready to scan.  
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the  
green light will flash and the unit will beep once. If the  
green LED does not flash or the scanner does not beep,  
then the bar code read is not successful.  
Razzberry Tone  
If, upon power up, the scanner emits a razzberry tone the  
scanner has failed diagnostics.  
The scanner can be programmed to emit a  
razzberry tone when the timeout occurs during  
communication between the host and scanner.  
Refer to Audible Indicators for Communication  
Timeouts the Programming Guide.  
Three Beeps  
When entering program mode, the green LED will flash  
three times while the scanner simultaneously beeps  
three times. When exiting program mode, the same  
visual and audible indications will occur. After this  
sequence is completed, the red LED will turn off.  
The scanner can be programmed to emit three  
beeps when the timeout occurs during  
communication between the host and scanner.  
Refer to Audible Indicators for Communication  
Timeouts the Programming Guide.

LABELS  
Each IS4220 has a serial number label and a laser class label on the bottom of  
the unit. These labels provide important information like; date and location of  
manufacture, model number, serial number, caution statements and laser class.  
There is also text molded into the top of the case near the window that says,  
“AVOID EXPOSURE - laser light emitted from this aperture”. The following  
Figure shows examples of these labels*.  
Figure 2. Caution and Serial Number Labels*  
* Labels not shown to scale.  
MAINTENANCE  
Smudges and dirt can interfere with the proper scanning of a bar code.  
Therefore, the output window will need occasional cleaning.  
1. Spray glass cleaner onto lint free, non-abrasive cleaning cloth.  
2. Gently wipe the output window.  
10  
 
INFRARED (IR) OBJECT SENSOR  
An infrared (IR) device located behind the window initiates the scanning process.  
The IR sensor is active as long as power is applied to the unit. When the IR  
sensor detects an object, the green LED will flash. When the laser decodes a  
bar code, the scanner transmits the data to the host system and emits a beep to  
show that decoding is complete. The IR sensor range can be programmed for  
two ranges.  
Short Range Activation  
The IR signal initiates the scan process if it senses an object anywhere from the  
face of the window out to approximately 4" to 7".  
Long Range Activation  
The IR signal initiates the scan process if it senses an object anywhere from the  
face of the window out to approximately 9" to 13".  
If the object is removed from the field during the scanning process, the laser  
turns off and the scanner re-enters "standby" mode. However, if the object stays  
in the field, the laser remains on for up to 2.5 seconds trying to detect another  
bar code. If the scanner does not detect a bar code, the scanner re-enters  
"standby" mode. To reactivate the scanning sequence, remove the object and  
present another.  
If the same symbol stays in the field after a successful scan, the laser stays on  
for approximately 7.5 seconds and then turns off. This prevents unintentional  
reads of the same bar code. To read the same symbol more than once, remove  
the object from the scan field for approximately 1 second and then present the  
symbol again.  
11  
 
ScanField  
The depth of field for the scanner is 12.7 mm to 203 mm (.5" to 8") from the face of  
the output window for .33 (13 mil) Bar Codes.

NOTICES  
Notice  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to  
part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful  
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates,  
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the  
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this  
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be  
required to correct the interference at his own expense. Any unauthorized changes or modifications to  
this equipment could void the user’s authority to operate this device.  
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:  
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference  
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.  
Notice  
This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.  
Remarque  
Cet appareil numérique de la classe A est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.  
Caution  
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result  
in hazardous laser light exposure. Under no circumstances should the customer attempt to service the  
laser scanner. Never attempt to look at the laser beam, even if the scanner appears to be nonfunctional.  
Never open the scanner in an attempt to look into the device. Doing so could result in hazardous laser light  
exposure. The use of optical instruments with the laser equipment will increase eye hazard.  
Atención  
La modificación de los procedimientos, o la utilización de controles o ajustes distintos de los  
especificados aquí, pueden provocar una luz de láser peligrosa. Bajo ninguna circunstancia el usuario  
deberá realizar el mantenimiento del láser del escáner. Ni intentar mirar al haz del láser incluso cuando  
este no esté operativo. Tampoco deberá abrir el escáner para examinar el aparato. El hacerlo puede  
conllevar una exposición peligrosa a la luz de láser. El uso de instrumentos ópticos con el equipo láser  
puede incrementar el riesgo para la vista.  
Attention  
L'emploi de commandes, réglages ou procédés autres que ceux décrits ici peut entraîner de graves  
irradiations. Le client ne doit en aucun cas essayer d'entretenir lui-même le scanner ou le laser. Ne  
regardez jamais directement le rayon laser, même si vous croyez que le scanner est inactif. N'ouvrez  
jamais le scanner pour regarder dans l'appareil. Ce faisant, vous vous exposez à une rayonnement laser  
qú êst hazardous. L'emploi d'appareils optiques avec cet équipement laser augmente le risque  
d'endommagement de la vision.  
Achtung  
Die Verwendung anderer als der hier beschriebenen Steuerungen, Einstellungen oder Verfahren kann  
eine gefährliche Laserstrahlung hervorrufen. Der Kunde sollte unter keinen Umständen versuchen, den  
Laser-Scanner selbst zu warten. Sehen Sie niemals in den Laserstrahl, selbst wenn Sie glauben, daß der  
Scanner nicht aktiv ist. Öffnen Sie niemals den Scanner, um in das Gerät hineinzusehen. Wenn Sie dies  
tun, können Sie sich einer gefährlichen Laserstrahlung aussetzen. Der Einsatz optischer Geräte mit  
dieser Laserausrüstung erhöht das Risiko einer Sehschädigung.  
Attenzione  
L’utilizzo di sistemi di controllo, di regolazioni o di procedimenti diversi da quelli descritti nel presente  
Manuale può provocare delle esposizioni a raggi laser rischiose. Il cliente non deve assolutamente  
tentare di riparare egli stesso lo scanner laser. Non guardate mai il raggio laser, anche se credete che lo  
scanner non sia attivo. Non aprite mai lo scanner per guardare dentro l’apparecchio. Facendolo potete  
esporVi ad una esposizione laser rischiosa. L’uso di apparecchi ottici, equipaggiati con raggi laser,  
aumenta il rischio di danni alla vista.
