Charge the Terminal
This device comes with a USB Type-C port, and it is recommended to charge the device using the provided original USB cable and power adapter.
Begin by connecting the USB cable to the power adapter, and then connect it to the terminal.
The terminal will start charging automatically, and the LED Indicator will display the current charge status. If the LED indicator is solid red, it means that the terminal is charging; if the LED indicator is solid green, it indicates that the terminal is fully charged.
You also have the option of using the original USB Type-A to USB Type-C cable to charge the terminal from a host device, such as a laptop or desktop computer. However, please ensure that the connected host device can supply a minimum power output of 5V and 0.5A to the terminal.
Note: Avoid using third-party cables or adapters to charge the terminal for optimal performance and safety.
Using the terminal while charging the battery increases the time required to reach a full charge. If the mobile terminal is drawing more current than supplied by the charging source, charging will not take place.

About the BCScan Application
To modify the scan profile or assess the scan engine's performance, you must launch the BCScan application. Below is a screenshot showcasing the application's primary interface.
BCScan is a demonstration application designed to test scan performance and manage the scan engine. Please be aware that not all barcode symbologies are activated by default in the BCScan app. If a barcode fails to scan, it is possible that the correct symbology is not enabled.
By default, the integrated scan engine is enabled for scanning. It supports omni-directional barcode scanning, and an aiming beam is provided to help assist with targeting barcodes.
If you need to enable or disable symbologies, DPM Mode, or OCR Mode, please tap on the Symbology Settings option to access further settings.
If you require data format modifications such as adding a prefix or suffix, or removing characters, please tap on the Label Formatting option to access additional settings.
In the Demo app, tap in the upper left corner of the screen to obtain further information regarding each scan result. The scan results will appear in the upper box and the related information regarding the scanned barcode including symbology, decoding time and message length will show up in the fields underneath the box.
If you need to check scanning accuracy, please tap previous scan and the current scan so as for the user to identify if the scans are the same.
To set up the scan engine, please tap to access scanner settings.
If you have completed the setup process for a device and would like to install the same configuration on another device, please follow these steps:
- Launch the BCScan app on the target device.
- Navigate to the scanner settings within the app.
- Tap , and choose the "Export Config" option
- Locate the exported file and transfer it to the desired device.
- Select the "Import Config" option to load the previously exported file.
