Multiple Scanner Operation
To put the scanner in multiple scanner mode, scan the bar code below. Once
you scan this bar code, the scanner is unlinked from the base and must be
placed into the base to re-link.
Note: Multiple Scanner Operation Mode allows you to link up to 7 scanners to
one base. You cannot join an eighth scanner until you unlink one of the
7 scanners or take a scanner out of range.
Scanner Name
You are able to assign a name to each scanner you are using. It will be helpful
to name the scanners if you have multiple scanners linked to one base so that
you will be able to control the scanner receiving imaging commands sent from
the base. The default name for an 3820 is “3820”. If you have more than one
3820 linked to a base, the first scanner that is linked to the base receives
commands addressed using this name.
Changing Scanner Name - Serially
If you wish to change the name, you may change it via a serial command (refer
to "Menu Command Syntax" on page 10-1) or via a bar code command. To
change the name serially, unlink all except one of the 3820s from the base. Send
“:3820:BT_NAM
name
.”, where
name
is the new scanner name. If you wish to
change the name of additional 3820s, re-link them one at a time and repeat the
“:3820:BT_NAM
name
.”
command for each scanner.
