USING THE HANDSCANNER

CONFIGURABLE FEATURES
INTRODUCTION
The Desktop Configuration application supplied by Technology Solutions is required for configuring Button Press
Mode on a Handscanner. This application is available for download from the Technology Solutions website
(www.
tsl.uk.com/1062-downloads/) along with a full user guide. Configuration of the Handscanner is only possible over
the wired serial connection. A cradle and serial data lead are therefore required. If the host PC does not have a
serial port it is possible to use a USB to serial converter lead.
The following sections provide an overview of the configuration options.

FUNCTIONALITY
The RFID functionality can be enabled and disabled for each transponder type. Barcode scanning, and the various
symbologies included in a barcode scan can be enabled and disabled.
PREFIX
A prefix can be added to the scanned data to indicate whether it came from a barcode, or from a particular RFID
transponder type. A prefix can also be added to all scanned data to indicate which Handscanner the data came
from.
BUZZER
The buzz on successful read function can be enabled or disabled.
VIBRATOR
Vibrate on successful read can be enabled or disabled.
RFID MULTIBLOCK READ
An RFID transponder may contain multiple blocks of data in addition to the unique serial number. The start block
and number of subsequent blocks to read when a transponder is present can be configured.
BATCH MODE
Batch mode allows the Handscanner to store all scanned data locally if there is not a Bluetooth
link to the host.
®
With Batch mode enabled the Handscanner continues to operate as normal, but stores scan data locally. This
data can then be downloaded from the Handscanner memory subsequently. If Batch mode is not enabled the
Handscanner will not respond to button presses when a Bluetooth
link is not established.
