3.4 USB READER CONFIGURATION
The USB interface is compatible with:
Windows 98 (and later) IBM POS for Windows
Mac OS 8.0 (and later) 4690 Operating System
USB Start-up
As with all USB devices, upon connection, the Host performs several checks by
communicating with the QuickScan
®
Mobile. During this phase the yellow LED on the
QuickScan
®
Mobile reader blinks and normal operations are suspended. Two basic
conditions must be met before the QuickScan
®
Mobile is ready to read codes, the
correct USB driver must be loaded and sufficient power must be supplied to the
reader.
For all systems, the correct USB driver for the default
USB-KBD interface is included in the Host Operating
System and will either be loaded automatically or will
be suggested by the O.S. and should therefore be
selected from the dialog box (the first time only).
Normally the Host supplies sufficient power to the
reader, the start-up phase ends correctly, the yellow
LED stops blinking.
In rare cases, if the Host does not supply sufficient
power to the reader, a dialog box will appear on the
Host and the reader will be blocked (yellow LED
continues blinking). In this case, disconnect the USB
device cable at the Host
(yellow LED stops blinking);
and then try a different USB port as indicated by the
Operating System message. You can now read
codes.
At this point you can read the USB interface
configuration code according to your application. Load drivers from the O.S. (if
requested). When configuring the USB-COM interface, the relevant files and drivers
must be installed from the USB Device Installation software, which can be
downloaded from the web page http://www.scanning.datalogic.com
.
The reader is ready to read barcodes. Successive start-ups will automatically
recognize the previously loaded drivers.
