USB Device Type

When changing USB device types, the scanner resets and issues the standard startup beep sequences.

When connecting two scanners to a host, IBM does not allow selecting two of the same device type. If you require two connections, select an IBM Table-top USB for one scanner and an IBM Hand-held USB for the second scanner.

Select OPOS (IBM Hand-held with Full Disable) to completely shut off the scanner when an IBM register issues a Scan Disable command, including aim, illumination, decoding, and data transmission.

Before selecting USB CDC Host, ensure your host OS has a USB CDC driver installed. For reference, Windows 10 includes a native (built-in) USB CDC driver. To recover a scanner stalled (non-functional) in USB CDC mode:

Install a USB CDC Driver

Select USB HID POS to communicate over a USB cable with Microsoft’s Universal Windows Platform (UWP) applications running on Windows 10 devices.
