*All Scanner mode settings, such as Bluetooth connection settings and barcode reading settings, are independent from the Standard app settings. When using Scanner mode, you need to configure settings in Scanner mode separately from the Standard app settings.
(Startup method)
Standard app ⇨ Main menu ⇨ Scanner mode*If Scanner mode is not in the main menu, you can add Scanner mode to the menu using the standard app editor.
Communication method
There are mainly two types of communication methods in Scanner mode: Please use either communication method.
- Bluetooth HID
Bluetooth HID is a communication method that connects to a PC, etc. via Bluetooth and transmits the contents of a barcode like keyboard input.
- Bluetooth SPP
Bluetooth SPP is a communication method that connects to a PC, etc. via Bluetooth and sends the barcode contents to the serial port.
Barcode reading settings
If you want to change the barcode reading settings of Scanner mode, read the menu QR code created with UniversalConfig.
Settings will be saved when reading the menu QR code. The same settings will be used when using Scanner mode again after the power is turned off.
*The scanning settings of Scanner mode are different from those of the Standard app. Mutual reading settings do not interfere.Barcode reading settings registration/reading function
Up to 7 barcode reading settings can be registered with names and read out when needed.
Registering barcode reading settings
- Registration via F2 settings menu
On the Scanner mode screen, set in the following order: F2 key ⇒ Register reading settings ⇒ 1 to 7 keys ⇒ Read UniversalConfig QR code ⇒ ENT key ⇒ Enter name ⇒ ENT key.

Barcode transmission via Bluetooth HID
For first time use
When using Scanner mode for the first time, you need to perform Bluetooth pairing.*If you want to use a PC that sends and receives files via Bluetooth using the Standard app with Bluetooth HID in Scanner mode, you need to select OPH-5000i from the list of other devices in PC settings and then "Delete device". there is.
*If you use the standard app's file sending/receiving and Scanner mode's Bluetooth HID sending on the same PC, you will need to manually create a Bluetooth incoming port for the standard app's file sending/receiving.
- Set the interface to HID on OPH-5000i
*In the initial state, HID is set on the Scanner mode interface, so this operation is not necessary.
Set in the following order: F2 key ⇒ "Communication settings" ⇒ "Interface" ⇒ "HID" ⇒ ENT key.
