Chapter 7 123SCAN2
Introduction
123Scan² is an easy-to-use, PC-based software tool that enables the quick and easy setup of Zebra scanners,
and the RFD8500 reader.
123Scan² uses a wizard tool to guide users through a streamlined set up process. Once parameters are set,
the values are saved to a configuration file that can be distributed via e-mail, electronically downloaded via a
USB cable. 123Scan² can generate multiple reports that can be easily re-branded using Microsoft Word or
Access. Report options include programmed parameters, and asset tracking information.
Additionally, 123Scan² can upgrade RFD8500 firmware, automatically check online to enable support for newly
released products, and stage scanners simultaneously via USB hub(s).
