POWERSCAN® D8330/M8300

4.9USB READER CONFIGURATION

The USB interface is available for PowerScan® D8330, BC-80x0 and C-8000 devices and is compatible with the following Operating Systems:

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 device. During this phase normal operations are suspended (the LED on the PowerScan® D8330 reader blinks). Two basic conditions must be met before the device is ready, the correct USB driver must be loaded and sufficient power must be supplied to the reader.

cFor 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 device and the start-up phase ends correctly. (The reader's LED stops blinking and the reader emits the beep OK signal).

In rare cases, if the Host does not supply sufficient power to the device, a dialog box will appear on the Host and the device will be blocked (the reader's LED continues blinking). In this case, disconnect the USB device cable at the Host (the reader's LED stops blinking), and then try a different USB port as indicated by the Operating System message. (The device emits the beep OK signal. You can now read codes).

dAt 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 device is ready. Successive start-ups will automatically recognize the previously loaded drivers.
