Introduction
The Opticon barcode readers OPN2002 and the OPL2724 can be used to quickly input
text on Android phones by scanning barcodes.
This manual will provide step-by-step instructions on how to use this functionality.
1 Setting up your barcode reader
The first step in this process is configuring your OPN2002 or OPL2724 correctly.
Since we'll use the Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP)* to connect to your Android
phone, you first have to select the correct default settings on the barcode reader.
Read the labels below to reset your barcode reader to Bluetooth-SPP default.
* Note: The serial data will be converted to keyboard input (HID) by an application
called OpticonRL, which is mentioned in following steps.
SET
_ZZ_
Bluetooth-SPP default
SO
_SO_
END
_ZZ_
The next step is configuring a numeric PIN-code, since most Android phones don't
accept PIN-codes that aren’t fully numeric.
On the following page you'll find the setup labels to configure a numeric PIN-code.
Configure the PIN-code by reading the labels in the following sequence:
1. SET
2. Set PIN-code label
3. Read 1 to 4 numeric characters (i.e read '0' 4 times to use '0000' as PIN-code)
4. End PIN-code label
5. END

2 Installing the required software on your Android phone *
The programs that need to be installed on your Android phone in order to convert
Bluetooth serial data into keyboard data are called:
•OpticonRL
•OpticonRL Soft Keyboard
* Important note: The minimal required Android OS version for these applications is
Android 2.1.
At this moment the required software is not available yet online on the Android
market.
As soon as it's available online they can simply be found by searching for 'OpticonRL'
using the Market application.
Start the Market application
Search for OpticonRL
If the applications are available online, then continue to section 2.3 to install both
applications.

2.1 Placing OpticonRL on your Android phone memory card
The two required application files are included with this manual:
•OpticonRL.apk
•SoftKeyboard.apk
To place these files on your Android phone, either 1) directly place them on your
(micro)SD memory card using a card reader or 2) connect your Android phone to
your computer using it's USB cable and mount it as disk drive.
Make sure you place the files in the root folder of your memory card.
After the files have been placed onto your Android phone you can continue to the
next step.

2.2 Installing an application installer
In order to install application files from your memory card you will need an
application installer. Application installers are freely available online.
Start the Market application
Search for 'app installer' and
select the application called
'appInstaller'
Install the appInstaller on your
Android phone

Once installed, the appInstaller
should now be available in the
application overview
Start the application
Note: Make sure the USB cable
is disconnected before starting
the application

should now be displayed and
are ready for installation
When trying to install application files from your memory card, you might get a
warning that 'applications not sourced in Android Market' are being blocked.
