INTERFACE

There are 5 interfaces for data transmission/collection:

1. BT HID - Emulates a Bluetooth HID keyboard that transmits

each barcode data to the host after decode.

(See page 7)

2. BT SPP - Emulates a Bluetooth SPP device that transmits

each barcode data to the host after decode.

(See page 7)

3. Batch Mode - Emulates a USB mass storage device

that saves each barcode data during

off-line data collection (See page 23)

4. USB HID - Emulates a USB keyboard that transmits each

barcode data to the host after decode.

5. USB VCP - Emulates a USB virtual com device that

transmit each barcode data to the host after

decode.

AUTO MODE

BATCH MODE

The following pages only apply to the batch version

mini wireless scanner, MS912M+ (P/N: MS912-

FUBB00-SG/TG), which can be easily distinguished

by an “M” mark on the rear of the scanner.

Being out of range, the scanner will temporarily

keep scanned data in its memory buffer(2K RAM)

until the buffer is full. The scanner will send all

stored data back to the host after getting in range.

*Note: Auto Mode will not function when Batch

Mode is enabled, or no connection is made beforehand.

Once enabled, a checksum will be added to the end of each data

to conduct Xor calculation. For Bluetooth SPP & USB-VCP, the BCC

is 1 byte. For Bluetooth HID, the BCC are 2 bytes.

Example:

The barcode data is “TEST” with terminator <CR><LF>

1. Bluetooth SPP & USB-VCP:

Data Format = <T> + <E> + <S> + <T> + <CR> + <LF> + <BCC>.

BCC = 54h ^ 45h ^ 53h ^ 54h ^ 0Dh ^ 0Ah = 11h

2. Bluetooth HID:

Data Format = <T> + <E> + <S> + <T> + <Enter> + <BCC>

BCC = 54h ^ 45h ^ 53h ^ 54h ^ E7h = F1h

However, since control character cannot be displayed in

Bluetooth HID, BCC will be converted into 2 bytes of characters.

As a result, the data will be: TEST + <Enter> + F + 1

After scanning the above barcode, the scanner will be able to collect barcode

data off-line.

To delete ONE stored data, please scan below barcode :

To retrieve stored data as *. file, please connect the scanner to the host with

cable, access removable storage device “MiniScan” from which you may

open or copy the file “BARCODE.txt” to your computer.

The barcode data will be displayed in the format of:

< Date >, < Time >, < Barcode Data > < CR >

To retrieve stored by direct output, please switch interface to BT HID, BT SPP,

USB HID or USB VCP (See page 5-6 for details). Then scan below

configuration barcode to output all stored data directly to the host:
