Download the OPN PC Companion Application which is also located in the

wizard to install the software. When it is finished installing, the PC Companion Application
dialog will appear.
4.
Plug the OPN-2001 into your computer. Windows will inform you that it has found new
hardware, and that it is installing the drivers for that hardware. Then you will see the status
indicator in the application window turn green. From the application window you can download
barcodes, change settings, or view and set the date and time on the device.

Scan Barcodes

Collecting data with the OPN-2001 is as simple as pointing and scanning. Scanning barcodes with
the big button or "trigger" will store barcodes, while scanning with the small button or "function" will
remove barcodes. Below are some tips about scanning and removing barcodes from the device.
When the OPN-2001 has a good scan, it will chime, the LED on the device will flash green, and
the laser will turn off.
When the OPN-2001 deletes a barcode, it will give a different chime than above, and it will flash
an Orange LED when it has a good scan.
Deleting the same barcode again when there are no more scans of it present will cause the
OPN-2001 to chime for about a second. The LED will also flash red.
