To use the ID TECH Reader Setup, follow these steps:
1. Go to the PROGRAM menu.
2. Select ID TECH USB Reader Setup.
3. When the screen appears, enter a command in the window labeled INPUT
SETUP STRING , just as you would with a standard keyboard wedge
interface. You do not have to use Notepad.
4. Click SEND.
5. If the command is accepted, the Omni will beep once. If the command is
rejected, the Omni will beep twice.
6. You can clear the INPUT SETUP STRING window by clicking on CLEAR
INPUT.
7. The HISTORY window displays previous commands. To re-use a
command, highlight the command in HISTORY and right click to select
COPY. Position the cursor in the INPUT SETUP STRING window and right
click to select PASTE.
8. To end your session, click on EXIT. This will clear all data in the
HISTORY window.
Note: When using the Omni in conjunction with a laptop computer or
other battery-operated host, power to the USB port may be shut down
when the battery runs low. If this happens, charge (or replace) the battery
and then reboot to continue.
Appendix F: USB/Keyboard Interface
The Omni reader is available with a cable that terminates in a Universal
Serial Bus (USB) connector. Most new computers have multiple USB ports
into which a wide variety of peripherals can be installed.
Since USB devices are designed to be “plug and play,” the computer will
search for a Human Interface Device (HID) driver when the Omni is first
connected. If one cannot be found, the computer will prompt you to make a
selection. The Windows CD may be needed to complete the installation.
The Omni reader is shipped from the factory with default configuration
settings already programmed. (See Appendixes A and B: Default Settings
Tables for details.) These settings are satisfactory for most applications. In
order to change these settings, it is necessary to run the ID TECH USB
Reader Setup Utility. The Reader Setup Utility allows you to enter
commands through the keyboard, just as if the reader were physically
connected between the keyboard and the computer.
To install the ID TECH Reader Setup, just follow these steps:
1. Insert the diskette into Drive A.
2. Click START.
3. Click RUN.
4. Enter A: SETUP.
5. Click OK.
6. Follow the instructions on the screen.
7. Close the ID TECH Setup Utility when all files have been copied.
8. Click FINISH.
