Introduction
The Opticon Ethernet Converter box makes it possible to connect your Opticon Handheld terminals to the
Ethernet and the Internet.
Using the integrated TCP/IP stack it is possible to transmit and receive files from your Opticon Handheld
terminal to any local or remote FTP-server, send and receive emails or simply synchronize time by using an
NTP server.
Alternatively it is also possible to connect one of more Ethernet Converter boxes to the Ethernet and have all
your barcode readers and/or terminals transmit their data to a remote PC that can be located anywhere on your
LAN or even somewhere on the Internet

Supported Opticon Handheld Terminals
The Ethernet Converter box has been designed as replacement for applications of Opticon Handheld terminal
that make use of TCP/IP dialup connections by 56k modems and GPRS/GSM modems without having to
change the software of the application itself.
For this purpose the following Opticon Handheld terminals are currently supported:
OPL97xx
PHL1700
PHL1300
PHL2700
OPH100x
H13
To be able to use the TCP/IP capabilities of the Ethernet Converter box you'll need to the following TCP/IP
libraries for these terminals:
OPL97xx: LMAV020Y or higher (or LNAV020Y for IrDA)
PHL1700: CMWV020Y or higher
PHL1300: CMWV020Y or higher (or CQWV020Y for IrDA)
PHL2700: CMWV020Y or higher (or CQWV020Y for IrDA)
OPH1003: XMAV020Y or higher
OPH1004: XPAV0306 or higher
H13:
XPAV0306 or higher
Notes
Older versions of the TCP/IP libraries will also work, so it is not necessary to rebuild existing applications,
however they will work with a slower communication speed.
It is recommended to use the latest TCP/IP library available at all times (= currently v.0307)
The TCP/IP libraries and further info can be found on the 'C-development kit for Opticon Handheld Terminal'
