OPN2002/3/4   batch   demo   
application   

(Version RFG35416 (OPN2002/3), RFIS0940 (OPN2004)) 
 

The   batch   demo   application   for   the   OPN2002/3/4   demonstrates   its   capabilities   to   store   
barcode   data   in   a   file   and   retrieve   this   file   onto   a   local   PC.   The   files   can   either   by   retrieved   
by   using   the   OPN2002/3/4   as   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).      
Since   the   OPN2002/3/4   terminals   don't   have   a   display   to   show   any   instructions   this   demo   
application   implements   a   user   interface   that   consists   entirely   of   using   just   the   2   keys   to   
scan   barcodes.   This   brief   setup   guide   describes   all   features   as   well   as   handling   instructions.      
More   product   details,   additional   support   and   more   configuration   options   to   customize   this   
application   to   your   own   preferences   (by   using   the   Universal   menu   book)   will   be   updated   at
