Select the Interface Type
Upon completing the physical connection between the Base Station and the host, pro-
ceed directly to Interfaces on page 13 for information and programming for the inter-
face type the Base Station is connected to (for example: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, USB,
etc.) and scan the appropriate barcode in that section to select your system’s correct in-
terface type.
Configure Interface Settings
Each interface type is associated to a specific set of default features. If after scanning the
interface barcode from the Interfaces section, your installation requires you to select op-
tions to further customize your reader, turn to the appropriate section for your interface
