=== USB Flash Disk (MSD Mode) ===

-

This mode makes the OPN act like a flash disk and stores the batched bar code into a file. When the OPN device is connected to a USB cable and plugged in to a computer, then a window will popup asking if you want to browse the files stored. Any bar codes stored will show up in SCANNED.TXT file. The Firmware: Mass Storage Device Application must be loaded on the OPN2006 in order to enable this mode of operation. To install the Storage Application, follow these [[#Firmware_Loading|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 bar codes is as simple as pressing a button. When you want to download your bar code scans, plug the OPN2006 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 User Manual Storage Application]. In particular, the very last page has barcodes which can be scanned to configure the layout of the text file.

===USB Keyboard Mode===

This mode allows the OPN2006 to emulate a USB Keyboard. While the OPN2006 is plugged in, any barcodes that are scanned are input wherever the cursor is on screen. When a barcode is scanned while the OPN2006 is disconnected, the barcode is stored in memory. When you want to retrieve scanned barcodes, simply plug the OPN2006 into a computer, and press any key on the device to have it playback all of the barcodes that were scanned while it was disconnected.
