BC9030-BT-BP Configuration

The BC9030-BT-BP configuration can be performed in three ways: by using
the Datalogic Aladdin

™

software configuration program, by sending configura­tion strings from the Host PC via the RS-232 or USB-COM interface or by
reading configuration bar codes with the PowerScan™ PM9500 reader.

Datalogic Aladdin™

Datalogic Aladdin™ is a multi-platform utility program that provides a quick
and user-friendly configuration method via the RS-232/USB-COM interface.
It also allows upgrading the software of the connected device (see the Data­logic Aladdin

™

Help On-Line for more details).

NOTE

The power supply is required only if you need to connect the interface
cable to a standard USB Port. The power supply is not required if you
connect the interface cable to a PoweredUSB 12V or 24V port.
