Multiple Scanner Operation
Note: Multiple Scanner Operation Mode for battery scanners allows you to link up to 7
scanners to one base or Access Point. You cannot join a 8th scanner until you unlink
one of the 7 scanners or take a scanner out of range.
Note: Multiple Scanner Operation Mode for battery-free supercapacitor scanners allows
you to link up to 3 scanners to one base or Access Point. You cannot join a 4th scanner
until you unlink one of the 3 scanners or take a scanner out of range
To put the scanner in multiple scanner mode, scan the barcode below. Once you
scan this barcode, the scanner is unlinked from the base or Access Point and must
either be placed into the base, or you must scan the Access Point linking barcode in
order to relink.
Scanner Name
You may assign a name to each scanner you are using for identification purposes.
For example, you may want to have a unique identifier for a scanner that is
receiving imaging commands sent from the base or Access Point.
The default name is in the format “ScannerName_Model_SN_XXXXXXXXXX” If you
have more than one scanner linked to a base, and they all have the same name, the
first scanner linked to the base receives commands. When renaming a series of
scanners with identical names, unlink all except one of the scanners from the base.
Perform the rename operation using either the barcodes on page 65, or by sending
the serial command :ScannerName:BT_NAMNewName. where ScannerName is
the current name of the scanner, and NewName is the new name for the scanner. If
you wish to change the names of additional scanners, link them one at a time and
repeat the :ScannerName:BT_NAMNewName. command for each scanner.
To rename scanners with sequential numeric names, scan the barcodes below.
Scan the Reset code after each name change and wait for the scanner to relink to
the base or Access Point before scanning a barcode to rename the next scanner.
