After clicking on it, the wizard will prompt as below; enter 0000 (AS-8520’s default PIN code) within the Passkey field; click “Next”. Now the installation and setups have been completed, you may start to scan barcodes to transmit data to HyperTerminal on PC.
Page 9 H H H H ow Scan Scan ow To To Scan Scan The imager must be pointed at slight angle to the barcode so that the light reflected off the barcode can be seen by the imager. Do not hold the imager perpendicular to the barcode.
Page 10 T T T T roubleshooting roubleshooting roubleshooting roubleshooting If the imager can not operate properly, the following checks should be performed: The cradle uses an external power supply and the external power supply has failed, the imager will not operate. Change the power supply with a known good power supply and reset the imager.
Page 11 Verify the interface cable is securely connected to the cradle. Check that the barcodes are of sufficient quality to be recognized by the imager. Wrinkled, smudged, or torn labels will cause the imager to not read at all. Scan a known good label to check the imager’s read operation.

Fasten the screw to the imager. Note Note Note Note: DO NOT touch the PCBA inside the imager when replacing the battery.
Page 17 Wireless Wireless Features Features The AS-8520 Wireless model includes an imager and a cradle. When the imager and cradle are linked together, the imager will read and decode barcodes and transmit them via a Wireless radio to the cradle. The cradle will then transmit the barcode data to the host computer over the host cable.
Page 18 Auto Auto Update Update Auto Auto Update Update When this feature is enabled, an imager and its linked cradle can automatically ensure they stay in sync with regard to firmware and/or configuration. This is accomplished by the linked imager and cradle comparing firmware version number and configuration file check sum.
