About

• The OPN3002i is certified as a MFi device (Made For iDevices) https://developer.apple.com/programs/mfi/
• The OPN3002i Does NOT have an application layer, so there is no Opticon SDK development software for the OPN device itself. However, we do have SDKs to build an application on an Android or iOS host device.
• The OPN3002i can support added characters to the data such as Time & Date stamping or changes to the prefix & suffix of the data.
• The OPN3002i does NOT have Data Wizard but can support Data Edit capabilities.
• The developer may however create their own iPhone/iPad like program (similar to our AppStore downloadable OPNTerm program)
  • To do that, the developer must download & use Apple’s XCode platform: https://developer.apple.com/xcode/
  • The SDK document instructions & SDK-Bluetooth framework should help a MFi developer with the OPN3002i specific information.

Data Wizard / Data Edit

Data Wizard and Data Edit capabilities are not currently supported as a standard feature in the OPN3002i or OPN2002i products.

However, if data qualifying or data output manipulation is required, please contact our technical support group with your requirements and we may be able to provide a solution.

Firmware Loading

Follow the directions below to load firmware on to the OPN-3002i.

Preparation

1. Download the Firmware: OS, and Appload for this process available in the Software Downloads section. You may also need Opticon's USB Drivers, so please download those as well.
2. Extract the OPN-3002i OS zip file, the Appload.zip file, the USB Drivers Installer.zip file, and the OPN2006 Firmware - Application files into a convenient folder.
3. Install the USB Drivers Installer by double-clicking the USB Drivers Installer.exe, which will start the install wizard. The default settings for the installer are fine in most cases so press Install, then ok until you are finished.
4. 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.
5. Connect the OPN2006 to your PC

Install the Firmware

1. Launch Appload if it is not already running.
2. 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'.
3. Now we can start downloading the OS. For the Firmware: OS 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.
4. When complete the OPN-3002i 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 OPN-3002i from the PC.

Application Programs

The OPN3002i product does not supported a software application layer like other OPN devices. The PX-20 is a 2D companion reader that does support an Application layer, however it is not MFi connection capable.

Date and Time

The date and time may be added to the output of the OPN3002i by setting the code $TM as a suffix using this configuration sheet

Batch Mode

Batch mode will be enabled when the device is no longer connected via bluetooth.

However, once reconnected, the data will begin streaming immediately. It is recommended that you have a text editor or application open, assuming the OPN3002 is in BT-HID mode, so that the data has somewhere to go. To cause the OPN3002i to wait for a button press before streaming, scan this configuration sheet.

To sever the Bluetooth connection, hold down the trigger/scan button until you hear a disconnect tone (or scan the "Manual Disconnect" scan code '+-DISC-+' - See the Universal Menu Book for the menu scan code symbols) -- This action just disconnects from the current Bluetooth host computer until it has something else to send.

To keep from auto-connecting after a regular symbol scan, scan the menu code to disable the Bluetooth auto-connect 'DIAU'. otherwise, the device will try to re-connect to the Bluetooth device after any normal scan.

NOW: scan all bar codes into storage.

When your application is open and ready in your host and you are in-range, scan the auto-connect menu code 'ENAU' or just hold down the trigger/scan button until you see the blue LED indicator flash - it should re-connect to the last paired device AND:

• If configured for HID mode - it will dump the data into the open application, like a keyboard entry.
• If in SPP mode, it will dump the data into the computer's appropriate COM port.
• If in MFi mode, it will dump the data into the appropriate iOS application program.
