SCANTEAM 5700 User’s Guide
For quick download communication configuration, scan the W + A bar code to
temporarily configure the scanner for 9600 baud rate, no parity, 8 data bits, and
1 stop bit. Standard receive (RX) and transmit (TX) voltages are also selected.
RTS/ CTS handshaking is disabled. This change is temporary. The next time
the scanner is powered down and then up, its serial communication settings are
restored to the programmed settings.

Clone Destination
Scanning the Clone Master bar code will transfer the firmware contents of the
“master” unit to the “destination” or installed unit. First, you must follow the steps
below to initiate the cloning procedure:
1) Connect the destination (installed) unit to one of the 8 pin modular
connectors on the cloning cable.
2) Connect the master unit (containing the new or updated software) to the
remaining 8 pin modular connector on the cloning cable.
3) Make sure that both units are powered On, and then scan the Clone
Destination bar code with the destination unit.
5) The master unit will start transferring its firmware contents to the
installed/ destination unit.
6) When cloning is complete, the master unit will double beep. This
process takes about 30 seconds.
