Getting Started
About the Reader
Advancements in the LED technology used in this reader significantly improve the illu-
mination of the target field of view, resulting in higher scan efficiency. Whether used in
Single Trigger or Continuous Mode, the ergonomic design of the reader will help to pro-
mote comfortable handling during extended periods of use.
The reader/Base Station can communicate using the following interfaces:
RS-232 —
The reader can communicate with a standard or Wincor-Nixdorf (W-N) RS-
232 host.
RS-232 OPOS —
This interface is used for OPOS/UPOS/JavaPOS systems.
Keyboard Wedge (KBW) —
When connected using this interface, the host interprets
scanned data as keystrokes and supports several international keyboards (for the Win-
dows
®
environment). See Country Mode on page 74 for a full listing.
USB —
Select to communicate either by USB OEM, USB COM, USB Keyboard inter-
face or USB POS types by scanning the appropriate interface type barcodes available in
this manual. The default interface is USB-KBD for Wedge models (7230) and USB-
OEM for IBM models (7210).
IBM —
IBM Port 5B or Port 9B are selectable interface options.
Wand Emulation —
This interface produces an electrical signal that represents the bars
and spaces of a label.
