1. Introduction
Code’s CR2700 is an advanced wireless 2D barcode reader purpose-built for medical and
healthcare applications. It features inductive charging, the latest Bluetooth Low Energy
standards, and a lightweight and ergonomic design in combination with superior barcode
scanning performance.
2. Useful Configuration Codes
2.1. Scanning the Reset Bluetooth Reader to Factory Defaults barcode below (M20390) will
erase all custom configurations and reset the device to default settings. This will also
erase any pairing information. This, however, will not erase any user settings
preprogrammed at factory or any JavaScript files loaded at factory or by the user.
2.2. Scanning the Reboot Reader barcode below (M20345) will power cycle the device.
Note: any settings that are not saved will be erased.
2.3. The CR2700 supports direct connection as a Bluetooth Keyboard device with third party
hosts that support Bluetooth Low Energy (such as PCs, mobile phones and tablets).
Scan the Bluetooth HID Keyboard barcode below (M20381) to set the reader as a
6
Bluetooth Keyboard device, then connect using host’s device manager (on PC) or
Bluetooth settings (on mobile devices). Note: this mode is not applicable when using a
Code charger with embedded Bluetooth radio (CRA-A271).

4. Supporting Documents and Resources
The following documents available from the Documentation section of the product page on
Code website https://www.codecorp.com/
4.1. Quick Start Guide, C011784, includes general instructions on setting up and operating
CR2700 readers and charging stations.
4.2. Interface Control Document, D026166, specifies the communication protocol between
Code Reader hardware and application software that runs on the host computer,
specific Reader commands, and examples of a variety of ways to communicate and
send data to the Reader and command/communication types.
4.3. Configuration Control Document, D027153, specifies the Reader configuration
commands.
Note: D026166 and D027153 are for application developers that want to integrate scan
data directly into their application and control configuration of the barcode reader.
Customers using a keyboard interface won’t need these documents, and should reference
the Configuration Guide Generator for configuration changes.
The following tools and resources are also available:
4.4. CortexTools2, is a PC software tool to configure, update, customize and manage Code
Readers. It is available to download from the CR2700 product page on the Code
website.
4.5. Configuration Guide Generator is an online tool to quickly generate a configuration
guide using configuration manual codes for every application. It is available at the
CR2700 product page on the Code website.
4.6. JavaScript Programming Guide, D028868, describes the JavaScript application
programming interface for the Code Readers. It is available from Code Support upon
request (see section 15).

5. Unpacking and Installation
Please note: CR2700 readers can only be charged by the CRA-A271 charging station from
Code. The CR2700 is not compatible with any other chargers.

5.5. Unpacking
Open the box that contains the product, remove the reader and included accessories.
Inspect for damage. If the product is damaged, please do not proceed to installation.
Contact Code Support (see section 15 for information). Retain the original packaging
material for potential return shipment.
5.6. Insert and Remove Battery
Only the CRA-B27 battery is compatible with the CR2700 readers. The battery is keyed so it
can only be inserted one way. Insert a B27 battery into the cavity of the reader (Figure 6)
until it clicks. Hold any button on the reader (except the Power Gauge button on the
battery) for half a second and the reader will start its booting sequence. When the reader
successfully completes its booting sequence (in about 2 seconds), the LEDs will flash, and
the reader will beep and vibrate once.
Figure 6 Insert and Remove Battery
13
To remove the battery, push the battery compartment latch in the direction indicated by
the arrow (Figure 6) until the battery pops up slightly. Pull the battery out of the reader
cavity.
5.7. Connecting Charging Station
Use only cables or power supply provided by Code to ensure proper communication with
the host and to provide adequate voltage to charge the reader.
5.7.1. Insert the micro USB connector of the cable to the micro USB port on the bottom
of the charging station (Figure 7)
5.7.2. Run the cable along the cable routing guides on the bottom of the charging
station. If the charging station will be placed into a desktop base (CRA-MB6), the
cable should exit through the opening in the back of the charging station (see
Figure 8). If the charging station will be mounted on a wall mount bracket (CRAWMB4) or a VESA mount bracket (CRA-MB7), thread the cable through one of the
two cable exit holes on the bracket (see Figure 9 or 10)
Please note, the CRA-A271 may not charge consistently or at all when connected to
a USB hub, even if the hub is powered.

(Thumb screws are optional
5.8. Mounting Charging Station
There are several mounting configurations to meet different application requirements. Choose
the one suitable for your workflow.
5.8.1. Desktop Mount
The Desktop Mount provides extra charger stability when the charger is free standing on
a counter or desk. Place the charging station into a desktop base (CRA-MB6) (Figure 8).
The charging station can be secured onto the base using two pan head screws supplied
with the desktop base. The desktop base can be fastened onto a flat surface using
included multi-use adhesive tape, if desired (see Figure 4 for locations to attach the
tape). Additional adhesive tape (CRA-CR27-02 or CRA-CR27-10) is available as an
accessory.
Optional thumb screws (CRA-CR27-01) can also be used to fasten the charging station to
the base.
