Version Differences for OPN2002 - Opticon Technical Support Portal

==Using your OPN-2002==

+

===As a Bluetooth-enabled Batch Scanner===

+

Your OPN-2002 is capable of memorizing data on command using one particular alternate firmware. These instructions will guide you through the initial set up and usage of your OPN-2002 as a Bluetooth batch scanner.

+

'''Initial Setup'''

+

First, the correct firmware needs to be loaded onto the OPN-2002. After that, the OPN-2002 needs to be paired to a device to ensure a smooth data download process.

+

# Follow our [https://wiki.opticonusa.com/techsupport/en/OPN2002#Upgrading firmware update instructions] to load the latest Firmware: OS file and the latest Firmware: Bluetooth & storage Demo files onto your OPN-2002. The appropriate files can be found [https://wiki.opticonusa.com/techsupport/en/OPN2002#Software further down the page].

+

# Pair your OPN-2002 with a computer system by following any one of the instruction sets below, or by using the appropriate [https://wiki.opticonusa.com/techsupport/en/OPN2002#Documents Quick Start Guide] located further down the page.

+

# Now, to set the OPN-2002 into Batch Mode, print the [http://opticonfigure.opticon.com/sl/?z=yA.yB.Ay&a=4&b=0&d=1 data memorization Opticonfigure sheet], then scan "SET," then your preferred mode of memorization, and finally "END."

+

Note that in most cases either the "BM1" or "BM2" barcodes are most appropriate to enable Bluetooth batch mode. BM1 will cause the OPN-2002 to memorize data while it's not connected to any system, while BM2 will cause it to memorize always except when memorizing is disabled.

+

The device will flash a green LED to indicate that it has stored data. It will memorize data even when it has no paired devices, and will transmit to the next bluetooth device that it connects with.

+

'''Managing Memorization'''

+

We'll need an additional set of command barcodes to control the OPN-2002's memorization behavior. Print [http://opticonfigure.opticon.com/sl/?z=yE.B2.yD.yC&a=4&b=0&d=1 this barcode sheet]. To use these special command barcodes, you only have to scan the barcode for the particular command. There is no need to also scan "SET" and "END" as those are only for changing settings, not for issuing commands.

+

* "Clear All Memorized Data" will erase any stored barcodes on the device.

+

* "Start/continue memorizing" will initiate memorization. You will have to scan this barcode if your scanner is still transmitting while it's connected to a Bluetooth host device.

+

* "Stop/pause memorizing" will allow you to begin immediately transmitting scans. Scanning this command will also cause your scanner to immediately transmit any memorized data. The OPN-2002 will attempt to connect to any paired device within range.

+

* "Transmit Memorized Data" forces the OPN-2002 to transmit any memorized data(if possible), but does not cause it to stop memorizing. It will attempt to connect to any paired device within range.

===With Windows XP in HID mode===

Follow the instructions below to set up your OPN2002 with Windows XP in HID mode.

#The Mac should present you with an eight digit numeric pin code, and the OPN2002 should start beeping;

#Scan each of the eight digits respectively using the numbered barcodes on the Quick Start Guide, then scan end to complete the pairing;

==Upgrading==

While there are multiple components to the firmware on an OPN-2002 (Bootloader, OS and Application) the instructions to load them individually or all together are the same. You simply choose the appropriate file(s) during the right part in the process. All files available from Opticon are found in the Downloads section of this page. In addition to the individual files there are also combination files which are all three components bundled together into a single file for easy installation. It is recommended to use these combination files. As the Bootloader and OS files will always be the same you simply choose the combination file for the application you wish to load.
