The 'Product - Info & Tips' section holds articles with generic info that will hopefully stand the test of time.
With the Opticon OPN-2001 being out of production the availability pool shrinks daily. There is a possible workaround with the help of an OPN-2006: the OPN-2006 can be made to mimic the exact behaviour of an OPN-2001. Your system that retrieves the scanned data from the scanner won't even know that there's an OPN-2006 at the end of the line. Here's how to achieve that:
The setup is a driver package containing several drivers for different types of Opticon devices.
This guide explains in detail which options to select.
This section is written for Opticon batch terminal models that come with a proprietary OS, (color)display and alpha/numeric keyboard, like the OPH-3001, OPH-1005, OPL-9815 and PX-36.
All of Opticon's batch terminals are delivered with the firmware factory installed, but some models come without any pre-installed scanning application. However Opticon offers a 'Demo Application' to showcase it's capabilities for almost all of their batch terminals. In a some scenarios the demo application fits the exact needs for your scanning process and would suffice to do the job.
This guide will show you all steps necessary to install a demo application from scratch.
This is a basic usage guide for Opticon's OseComm which explains basic setup and covers the most used options.
OseComm is used for two-way communication between your Opticon device and your PC. It's main functions are to send and retrieve files but there are some other handy functions as well.
Important differences between the CRD-1006 v1 and the CRD-1006 v2.
Info about the necessary Software for Opticon Android & Batch terminals
By buying any terminal you buy a piece of modern and cleverly designed hardware with integrated 1D or 2D scanner, with a pre-installed 'Operating System' (OS). The OS can be Android or a Proprietary system (closed software).
But there is no generic 'one-fits-all' application that will work for everybody and this is the reason why there are no ready pre-installed user applications on these devices.
So be aware that none of the Mobile terminals have by default 'production ready' software that will seamlessly operate in the workflow of your operational environment. So what are your choices?
