Introduction The batch demo application demonstrates the capabilities of the OPN2002/3/4 to store barcode data in a file and retrieve this file from a local PC. The files can either by retrieved by using the OPN2002/3/4 as an USB Mass Storage Device (MSD) or can be received using the NetO protocol by using USB-VCP and/or the CRD2000 multi cradle (for OPN2002 only).
Using the USB-VCP and CRD2000 Interface. Independent of whether you configured your OPN2002 as Mass Storage Device (MSD) or as USB-VCP, it’s always possible to transmit your barcodes using the CRD2000 multicradle in combination with the NetO32-file transfer PC application.
OPN2002/3/4 Application Manual RFG35416, RFIS0940 Barcode Database File All scanned unique barcodes are stored in a database file with fixed length records. Besides the barcode data, the quantity, serial number of the OPN and a date/ time stamp can be stored.
Due to the limited amount of memory (RAM) inside the OPN, the size of the file system is rather small, about 32kB on the OPN2004, 125kB on the OPN2003, and about 900kB on the OPN2002. This is ample space for storing barcodes, but not for using the OPN as a portable hard drive.
PC or laptop using NetO32. The data is transmitted by either a mini-USB cable (USB-VCP) or by the CRD2000 multi cradle (OPN2002 only). To be able to receive the files on the host, you will need NetO32 to be installed. The latest version of NetO32 can be downloaded from our website (see NetO32).
RFI* * It is often possible to load OPN2002 applications on the OPN2003 and vice versa, because the hardware is mostly the same (with the exception of the Bluetooth capabilities and cradle contacts which are only present on the OPN2002).
• Unlike the OPN2001, the OPN2002/3 will lose its time and date within four or five days after the OPN2002/3 becomes non-operational due to a drained battery, which is sooner than the OPN2001. A drained battery will cause the time to be reset to 1-1-1970 00:00. If the OPN2002/3 is not regularly used, it might be necessary, before retrieving any barcode data, to compare the current time to the time which is read from the OPN2002/3.
