Note: If the Application Generator is used to create the application program, it will be necessary to download it to the terminal.

Programming the terminal

There are three software tools available for developing application programs for the terminal.

•The “BASIC” Compiler

•The “C” Compiler

For detailed information, please consult the appropriate manual or contact Metrologic Instruments, Inc..

Programming the communication cradle

The communication cradle of the OptimusR Portable Data Terminal supports serial IR interface only. If a customized PC application has been developed for communication with the terminal via the cradle, it will be necessary to first configure the cradle through programming. There is a DLL available for this purpose.
