The OPN2005 is one of Opticon's newest Bluetooth scanners. Armed with a variety of connection options and the ability to run customizable embedded applications created with the [[C-Library Kit]], the OPN2005 is an incredibly versatile scanner in the same attractive form factor of the [[OPN2002]].
|
| |
|
+ |
The OPN2005 Bluetooth Companion Scanner enables real-time barcode scanning into any Bluetooth ready device including Android, iOS, Blackberry, PC and Mac. The OPN2005 scanner is small – it fits into a pocket or on a keychain and weighs only one ounce. It comes at an affordable price point that enables any business to integrate barcode scanning into mobile applications. The OPN2005 is also programmable: a free SDK makes it easy to create custom scanning applications. With the addition of Secure Simple Pairing, the OPN Companion Scanner family just got smarter.

==Concepts and Definitions==
|
| |
|
+ |
*'''Fixed PIN''': a PIN code that is preset in the OPN2005. Typically the last 4 characters of the OPN2005's Bluetooth name.
|
| |
|
+ |
*'''Dynamic PIN''': a PIN code that is determined at pair time by the Bluetooth host.
|
| |
|
+ |
*'''HID''': Human Interface Device. In the case of the OPN2005, it's recognized as a Bluetooth HID keyboard, meaning that each character of a scanned barcode is transmitted to the host as a keyboard press. HID devices cannot be used as a master at pair time, but after pairing with a Bluetooth host, can switch roles and become master devices for reconnection purposes.
|
| |
|
+ |
*'''SPP (VCP)''': Serial Port Profile (Virtual COM Port). In the case of the OPN2005, it sends data serially to a serial port on the Bluetooth host. Software running on the host can read from that serial port to capture the data.
|
| |
|
+ |
*'''Embedded Firmware''': The embedded OS and application that is present on the OPN2005, and required for its function.
|
| |
|
+ |
*'''Embedded OS''': A binary common to all OPN2005s that enables the OPN2005 to function and exposes an API that the OPN2005's embedded applications utilize to "drive" the device.
|
| |
|
+ |
*'''Embedded Application''': A binary produced either by Opticon or by a third party utilizing the [[C-Library Kit]]; implements the "user interface" and drives the behavior of the OPN2005.
|
| |
|
+ |
*'''Default Firmware, OS, or Application''': Refers to standard Opticon software for the OPN2005, typically installed on the OPN2005 at the factory and present out-of-the-box.
|
| |
|
+ |
** The OS version string is always '''RBLVXXYY''', where XX denotes the major revision and YY denotes the minor revision. The ''application'' version string is '''RFLAAABB''', where AAA denotes the major revision and BB denotes the minor revision. Occasionally, the first 'A' in RFL'''A'''AABB is a letter, denoting the Opticon office responsible for developing the software.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
==Supported Platforms==
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
The OPN2005 is usable on wide variety of platforms and Bluetooth stacks.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Supported platforms include:
|
| |
|
+ |
*[[Mac OS X]] (does not work on older mac "powerbook" computers however it works well on all "macbook" computers)
|
| |
|
+ |
*[[iOS]] 4+ (including iPads running iOS 3.2) (currently HID only)
|
| |
|
+ |
*[[Windows]] (all flavors)
|
| |
|
+ |
*[[Windows Mobile]]
|
| |
|
+ |
*[[Windows CE]]
|
| |
|
+ |
*[[Linux]]
|
| |
|
+ |
*[[Android]]
|
| |
|
+ |
*[[BlackBerry]]
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
For those platforms that only support SPP mode, [[OpticonRL]] may be required to enable the OPN2005 to output barcode data directly into an application.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Versions of [[OpticonRL]] currently exist for both [[Android]] and [[BlackBerry]]. This enables customers to get barcode data into their applications with a minimal amount of effort, as [[OpticonRL]] transforms received serial data into keyboard presses, in effect "wedging" barcode data into applications.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
==Reset==
|
| |
|
+ |
To restore to factory defaults or in case the device is not responding, there is a feature that will allow a reset of the OPN2005. To perform a reset, hold down both buttons (clear/function and scan) for 30-40 seconds. This will reset the device and clear past pairing information. Once reset the pairing process will need to be performed to reconnect the OPN2005 to your device or computer.
|
| |
|
+ |
==Firmware Loading==
|
| |
|
+ |
There are multiple components to the firmware on an OPN2005 (Bootloader, OS and Application), however the instructions to load them individually or all together are the same. In most cases, all you'll need to do is load the OS, and the proper Application file for your needs.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
Follow the directions below to load firmware on to the OPN2005.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
===Preparation===
|
| |
|
+ |
# Download the Firmware: Bootloader, Firmware: OS, and Appload for this process available in the [[#Software|Software Downloads]] section. You may also need Opticon's [[#Drivers|USB Drivers]], so please download those as well.
|
| |
|
+ |
# Download the appropriate Firmware: Application file for your needs. This is most likely to be the [[#Software|Bluetooth Application]], however there are other Applications available. A complete list can be found in the [[#Software|Downloads Section]] at the bottom of the page.
|
| |
|
+ |
# Extract the OPN2005 Bootloader and Firmware - OS zip files, the Appload.zip file, the USB Drivers Installer.zip file, and the OPN2005 Firmware - Application files into a convenient folder.
|
| |
|
+ |
# Install [[Appload]] by double-clicking the 'Appload Setup.exe' file, which will start the install wizard. The defaults are fine in most cases, so keep clicking 'Next' until you are finished. Appload will launch at the end of the install process.
|
| |
|
+ |
# Connect the OPN2005 to your PC
|
| |
|
+ |
===Install the Firmware===
|
| |
|
+ |
# Launch Appload if it is not already running.
|
| |
|
+ |
# We first need to choose the correct COM port. From the main Appload window, select 'Settings' > 'Port', then choose the port that says 'Opticon USB Code Reader'.
|
| |
|
+ |
# Now we can start downloading the OS and Application. For each of the .hex files you downloaded and extracted above, please choose 'File', then 'Download', then navigate to and select the file. You should see a progress indicator and the words 'Initializing IRdA' if this is working.
|
| |
|
+ |
# When complete the OPN2005 will emit a series of beeps and reboot. When the LED is steady RED (indicating charging) or GREEN (indicating fully charged) the process is complete and you may disconnect your OPN2005 from the PC. instruction manuals for the various applications are available for download in the Downloads section.

=== OpticonRL Utility ===
|
| |
|
+ |
*[[OpticonRL]] is an application developed separately for multiple platforms that converts barcode data coming over a serial port into key presses. Since the majority of our products support serial communication in one way or another this can be especially useful. In effect, the barcode data is wedged into whatever application is at the forefront and has text focus, as if it were typed
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
=== NetO32 Utility ===
|
| |
|
+ |
*[[NetO32]] (Net-Oh) is the name for Opticon's protocol used for transferring data from our terminal devices to a host PC. Data is transferred as an entire file. Note that NetO must be supported on the application running on the terminal device and a host application must also be running such as NetO32. The necessary libraries to implement NetO protocol on the terminal devices are provided by Opticon in our C-Library Kit. A host SDK is also available to implement NetO within your own application.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
=== OSE Comm Utility ===
|
| |
|
+ |
*OseComm (Oh-ess-e-com) is the name for Opticon's revisioned file-transfer protocol developed to transfer data from our terminal devices to a host computer. This is a utility that is similar in function to the NetO32 utility, but is newer and has a bit more functionality than NetO32 does. Like Neto, the d in the data in the reader is transferred as an entire file to the host system. The necessary libraries to implement the OseComm protocol on terminal devices are provided by Opticon in our C Library Kit. A host SDK is also available to implement OseComm within your own computer application for the native Win32 platform as well as .NET.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
|
+ |
'''NOTES:'''
|
| |
|
+ |
* ''Use only [[NetO32]] OR OSEComm utility on the host computer NOT both.''
|
| |
|
+ |
* ''If OseComm is used, then it must be supported on the application running on the terminal device and an application must also be running on the host computer using OseComm32.''
