There are several ways to configure the reader to meet specific application requirements: for example,
enabling and disabling certain symbologies, embedding a date code such as deployment date or warranty
expiration date, adding a prefix or suffix to data output or even complex data manipulations.
8.1 Use the Device Configuration on the Code Website
The Device Configuration on the Code website contains all manual configuration codes for the device. It
can display an individual code to be scanned by a reader directly off the screen. It can easily generate a
PDF file containing one or multiple codes.
8.2 Use CortexTools3
CortexTools3 is a software tool to manage Code devices. It is available from the CR2700 product page of
Code’s website. Users can use it to:
•
Download firmware, JavaScript and other files to Code devices
•
Retrieve files or images from the devices
• Retrieve device information including model number, serial number, Bluetooth MAC address,
license numbers if loaded, custom date if programmed and battery health information
•
Send commands (refer to device Interface Control Document and Configuration Control
Document) directly to the devices
• Generate a QuickConnect Code for a Bluetooth charging station
Please note
:
to ensure successful firmware updates, firmware download will not initiate if battery power
level is low. If this occurs, charge the battery or swap with a charged spare battery.
8.3 Use JavaScript
Selected Code devices, including the CR2700 readers, support JavaScript programming. This
provides tremendous capabilities and flexibility for customization in order to meet various application
requirements. From simply turning on or off features, to complex data manipulation, or even adding
custom features, JavaScript gives you the capability. Code devices will retain JavaScript even after
restoring factory settings.
Please contact Code Support (see section 15) for information on JavaScript application development for
Code devices and to request the JavaScript Programmers Guide (D028868).
