Configuring the Wireless Scanner
for your computer and application
Find the 8 1/2 x 11" laminated
Wireless Reader Setup
Menu sheet and look it over. This simple menu lets you
easily configure the Radio/Freedom Reader to work with
almost any computer system, and to tailor its bar code
reading and data format characteristics.
Be sure to read the scanning instructions on the next
page. To read Reader Setup Menu bar codes and
configure your reader, you must know the right way to
scan bar codes.
These are the Wireless Reader's default settings and are shipped configured to
these settings; they can be reset to them at any time by scanning the Start
Setup and Reset codes on the Reader Setup Menu.
