To open the application:
• The application may reside on the handset or on a PC.
1 If the application resides on the handset, navigate to Applications > [application name]. If the
application resides on a PC, open the application as directed by your system administrator.
Ensure that the cursor is in the correct entry field. Use the computer keyboard to move it as
needed.
2 Point to the barcode you want to scan and press the scan button as described above. View the
data entered to verify it is correct.
The cursor may automatically tab to the next field if the system administrator has configured this
option. In some cases, you may have to manually tab to the next field or move the cursor to the
desired field. Consult with your system administrator for information about how to move the
cursor to the next field if this is not immediately obvious.
Using the Many-to-Many Application
The many-to-many application enables you to use any handset in a group to enter information into
many computers. The system administrator programs this application and can provide you with
additional information about how it works in your facility.
As with any barcode reader, the handset provides keyboard entry function; the barcode scan button
scans into fields on your computer that are controlled by the application.
Follow the steps outlined in the previous section to associate the handset with the computer and open
the application. You can connect only one computer at a time. If you try to connect to another computer
while connected to the first one, you will disconnect the first computer. If a new handset tries to
connect to a computer while you are still connected, it will disconnect you and connect the new
handset.
Open the application on the computer and follow the procedure as directed by the system
administrator.
