Miniscan Block Diagram Descriptions
Decoded Scan Engine - The scan engine emits a beam of laser light that reflects off the bar code. Black bars 
absorb light, white spaces reflect light. The scan engine collects the reflected light and processes the signal 
through several analog filters. The filtered signal is digitized into a Digitized Barcode Pattern (DBP). The decoder 
micro-controller analyzes timing information to decode and transmit the data contained in the bar code. 
Interface Board - The interface board adapts the scan engine's interface into usable signals and data for the 
intended host. It also contains a beeper and red/green LED for audio/visual feedback, and provides for an external 
trigger and external beeper.
The interface board converts the scan engine's data to Synapse, USB, or TTL level RS-232. A separate host 
adapter cable (p/n 25-62186-xx) converts the TTL level RS-232 output to standard RS-232 levels. All interface 
types are auto-detected based on the host cable attached.
DB9 - The DB9 connector provides a sealed outlet for the various interface signals used between a MiniScan 
scanner and the host. It also maintains pin compatibility with the previous generation LS1220 MiniScan host 
cables.
