Setting up your barcode reader
1
The first step in this process is configuring your OPN2002 or OPL2724 correctly.
Since we'll use the Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP)* to connect to your Android
phone, you first have to select the correct default settings on the barcode reader.
Read the labels below to reset your barcode reader to Bluetooth-SPP default.
* Note: The serial data will be converted to keyboard input (HID) by an application
called OpticonRL, which is mentioned in following steps.
Bluetooth-SPP default
The next step is configuring a numeric PIN-code, since most Android phones don't
accept PIN-codes that aren't fully numeric.
On the following page you'll find the setup labels to configure a numeric PIN-code.
Configure the PIN-code by reading the labels in the following sequence:
1. SET
2. Set PIN-code label
3. Read 1 to 4 numeric characters (i.e read '0' 4 times to use '0000' as PIN-code)
4. End PIN-code label
5. END
_ZZ_
SET
_SO_

END
