STEP 4 – Installing GeniusPlus Configuration Program
GeniusPlus is a scanner configuration tool that provides several important advantages:
•
Wizard approach for new users
•
Multi-language version
•
Defined configuration directly stored in the reader
•
Communication protocol independent from the physical interface allowing to consider the reader as a remote object
to be configured and monitored
To install GeniusPlus, insert the GeniusPlus CD-ROM, wait for the CD to autorun, and follow the installation procedure. The
software is compatible with Windows 98, 2000/NT, XP, Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8.
This configuration procedure assumes scanner connection to a TCNM-ACBB1. GeniusPlus, running on a laptop computer, is
connected to the scanner auxiliary port through the TCNM-ACBB1 9-pin connector. To communicate with the scanner,
GeniusPlus performs an auto baud rate detection starting from its default parameters, which are 115200, 8, N, 1. These
parameters can also be set in the GeniusPlus Tools > Options > Communications window.
Wizard for Quick Reader Setup
After installing the GeniusPlus software program, the
following window appears asking the user to choose the
desired configuration level.
We advise using the Wizard option for rapid configuration or
new users because it shows a step-by-step scanner
configuration.
