2.4Checking The Scanner

Note: Details about operating and troubleshooting scanners, Imagers and RFID readers are provided under the heading “Internal Scanners” on page 48.

If your 7530 G2 is equipped with an internal scanner, you can test it to ensure that it is operating properly. Point the scanner window at a bar code that your scanner was designed to decode—for example, a 1D UPC bar code or 2D bar code. Press the SCAN button or pistol trigger, and check for a valid decode on the hand-held’s screen.

Performance is improved if you disable all unneeded bar codes in the Bar Codes screen. Review “Scanner Settings” on page 143 for details about

bar codes.

2.5 Using Microsoft ActiveSync

ActiveSync – Microsoft PC connectivity software – can be used to connect the hand-held to PCs running this software.

Note: Keep in mind that you’ll need to run the USB Setup program to configure your workstation before connecting the 7530 G2 via USB. For information about the USB application, refer to Appendix C: USB Setup Application.

By connecting the 7530 G2 to a PC with a cable and running ActiveSync on the PC, you can:

•View 7530 G2 files from Windows Explorer.

•Drag and drop files between the 7530 G2 and the PC in the same way that you would between PC drives.

•Back up 7530 G2 files to the PC, then restore them from the PC to the hand- held again, if needed, and so on.

To install ActiveSync, follow the step-by-step instructions provided with the program’s setup wizard. Refer to the following website for details:
