BRIEF SETUP

WIRELESS READER

CONFIGURATION

INSTRUCTIONS

The reader is configured to default factory settings

and is supplied with information that gives you a

quick understanding of the product. More product

details, additional support, or configuration options

to your own preferences (by Universal menu book)

will be updated at www.opticon.com

To enable the reader to communicate to another

device, different steps can be taken, depending on

the situation.

Overview of situations

• The address of the device must be configured in

the reader. Possibly the address of the device

needs to be retrieved first.

• To connect an Opticon reader to a third party

dongle, the reader must be configured.

• In case a third party dongle is used, the address

and pin code need to be configured manually.

Consult your dongle’s manual how to obtain the

address and configure the pin code. You need

this information to configure the bar code reader.

The dongle's driver installs a serial port on the

computer, which is used by the bar code reader

to transmit the data.

• The reader can connect by scanning the other

device’s address label or by making the reader

discoverable to the other device.

• To stop the connection manually use the special

disconnection label.

The necessary steps and instructions are

explained on the next pages:

[STEP 2 OPTIONAL] SECURITY OPTIONS The third party dongle usually allows authentication, which means a PIN-code can be used to establish a secure connection. Note that the PIN-code is case sensitive, e.g. there is a difference between lower case und upper case (example: difference between ‘a’ and ‘A’).
