Initializing the Scanner’s Memory
Important! This deletes all preprogrammed data. You cannot restore preprogrammed data that has been deleted.
To initialize the scanner’s memory, turn off the scanner. Then, press 2, 9, and Hold while turning it on.
You can change your mind when you next see: Restore Preprogrammed List? Press “E” for Yes or “.” for No.
Connecting Your Scanner to a Personal Computer
To connect your scanner to a personal computer, you must first set the scanner’s baud rate (the rate at which data is transferred between the scanner and the computer, in bits per second (bps).
Important! Before you start transferring data between your scanner and your computer, make sure the batteries are fresh or fully charged. If the scanner loses power while you are transferring data, its memory might be corrupted and all information programmed in the scanner might be erased.
Hint: If you have trouble transfer- ring data between your scanner and your computer, try setting the baud rate to a slower setting.
Use the included connection cable to connect your scanner to another BCD396T scanner or your personal computer.
