Installation & Configuration

Overview

This chapter describes installation instructions and settings to configure the Zebra Scanner OPOS Driver on a host computer.

For custom installation instructions, refer to the Zebra Scanner SDK for Windows Developer’s Guide (p/n 72E-149784-xx)

NOTE OPOS components are installed by default with the standard Scanner SDK installation. If a custom Scanner SDK installation is performed, the OPOS option must be selected to install the OPOS components.

Configuration

After a successful installation of the Zebra Scanner SDK with the OPOS driver, the following system registry entries are created at:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OLEforRetail\ServiceOPOS\Scanner\ZEBRA_SCANNER

or

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OLEforRetail\ServiceOPOS\Scale\ZEBRA_SCALE

The Zebra Scanner OPOS Driver reads the registry entry above to retrieve required configurations, for example baud rate for serial scanners, and scanner filtering rules to form the logical scanner defined by the user.

See Appendix, WINDOWS REGISTRY KEYS for OPOS DRIVER for descriptions of supported registry keys.
