STEP 4 – INSTALLING GENIUS™ CONFIGURATION PROGRAM
Genius
™
is a Datalogic scanner configuration tool providing several important advantages:
 Wizard approach for new users;
 Multi-language version;
 Defined configuration directly stored in the reader;
 Communication protocol independent from the physical interface allowing to consider the
reader as a remote object to be configured and monitored.
To install Genius™, turn on the PC that will be used for the configuration, running
Windows 98, 2000/NT, XP, Vista or 7, then insert the Genius™ CD-ROM, wait for the CD
to autorun and follow the installation procedure.
This configuration procedure assumes scanner connection to a CBX100/500. Genius™,
running on a laptop computer, is connected to the scanner auxiliary port through the
CBX100/500 9-pin connector. To communicate with the scanner, Genius™ performs an auto
baudrate detection starting from its default parameters which are 115200, 8, N, 1. These
parameters can also be set in the Genius™ Tools>Options>Communications window.
Wizard for Quick Reader Setup
After installing the Genius™ software program the following window appears asking the user
to choose the desired configuration level.

The Wizard option is advised for rapid configuration or new users, since it shows a step-by-
step scanner configuration.
