===Mass Storage Device Mode (MSD Mode) ===

This mode makes the OPN-2500 act like a flash disk and stores the batched bar code into a file by scanning the configuration code [https://opticonfigure.opticon.com/configure?scanner=OPN2500&type=1D&i=0&t=128&pdf=A4&sheet=W1siQzA0Il1d barcode sheet]. When the OPN-2500 is connected to a USB cable and plugged into a computer, then a window will pop up asking if you want to browse the files stored. Any bar codes stored will show up in the SCANNED.TXT file.

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 OPN-25000 into a computer, and copy the text file out of the flash drive. For more configuration options, see the [http://ftp.opticonusa.com/Downloads/OPN6000/OPN6000%20User%20Manual.pdf User Manual Storage Application]. In particular, the very last page has barcodes that can be scanned to configure the layout of the text file.
