  When in Keyboard mode, the OPN2004 can scan in real time or store data in memory which can later be transmitted at the push of a button. In flash disk(MSD) mode the OPN2004 stores barcode scans into a text file on the device. The text file can later be accessed simply by plugging in the device.    When in Keyboard mode, the OPN2004 can scan in real time or store data in memory which can later be transmitted at the push of a button.

- ===USB Flash Disk Mode===      
- This mode is also referred to as USB-MSD mode. The Firmware: Storage Application must be loaded on the OPN2004 in order to enable this mode of operation. To install the Storage Application, follow these [[#Firmware|firmware loading]] instructions. Once the storage application is loaded, print and scan [http://opticonfigure.opticon.com/sl/?z=Fi&a=4&b=0&d=1 this] sheet of barcodes to configure the device to act as a flash disk.      
       
- Once that's finished, scanning barcodes is as simple as pressing a button. When you want to download your barcode scans, plug the OPN2004 into a computer, and copy the text file out of the flash drive. For more configuration options, see the [http://ftp.opticonusa.com/Downloads/User%20Manual%20-%20RFI3793x.pdf Firmware Storage Application User Manual]. In particular, the last few pages have barcodes which can be scanned to configure the layout of the text file.      
       
  ===USB Keyboard Mode===    ===USB Keyboard Mode=== 
  This mode allows the OPN2004 to emulate a USB Keyboard. While the OPN2004 is plugged in, any barcodes that are scanned are input wherever the cursor is on screen.
