Installation
1) We recommend that you download the latest release from www.Moto-Scan.com. The software
package contains to modules: MotoScan Configurator and Microsoft ActiveSync (Win XP) or
Microsoft Mobile Device Center (Vista / Win7+)

2) Start the installation process and be aware that on Windows 7+ you must disable UAC before
installing the software. Type UAC in the start-button search field and drag the slider all the way to
the bottom. Installation requires administrative rights.

3) If your do not have Microsoft Active Sync (MAS) for Windows XP installed, please install this first. Or
if you have Windows 7+, then Microsoft Mobile Device Center (MMDC) either 32 or 64bit version
must be installed, depending of operating system. The installation files for the synchronization apps
are included in the software package; you just downloaded from the web site. Refer to the FAQ at
the web site if you need more help for this. If you are using Windows 10 the MMDC must be
installed using Windows Vista compatibility mode as administrator.

4) Install MotoScan on the PC. Take the device out of the docking station and put it back in. The
MMDC/MAS will now detect the device and turn green. We recommend that you keep the default
settings during the installation process.

Disable partnerships: Default: this box too be ticked, and thereby disable partnerships. Then ActiveSync /
MDC will acknowledge all connections as Guest connections. This means that calendar, contacts etc. will not
be synchronized. It is normally preferred to disable partnerships in a hand terminal / scanner work-setup, as
it is only annoying the user to take action each time you dock your scanner or hand terminal. This setting
will be valid for all devices connected to this PC – also Smartphones and so on, but it makes it easier to
synchronize data for these kinds of applications in general

Windows 7+ / Vista info: Before starting installation, please deactivate UAC (User Access Control). In the
search field, type UAC. Pull the slider to the bottom, press OK and restart the PC. If you do not do this,
you may experience problems with the data transfer from the scanner/terminal to the PC.

Data transfer
Data from the terminal will synchronize with the PC when Microsoft ActiveSync/MDC have connection with
the scanner/terminal. This can be verified by watching the sys-tray for the green icon (ActiveSync only), and
Mobile Device Center (Windows 7+) will pop-up the connection screen.

When the scanner/terminal is connected, the NPT TerminalSync software will retrieve all stored data from
the terminal and clean-up the memory of the terminal afterwards.

It is very important that the scanner/terminal finish the synchronization before removed it from the cradle
again.

Another option is using the built-in functionality to synchronize to an FTP server via WIFI or 3G. The
terminal will send all data to the FTP server and clean-up the memory at configurable intervals. The status
screen on the terminal will show the last synchronization time of the device.

Device Installation

Install application
This is for loading a hand terminal device with the MotoScan application. It installs the application on the
docked device, and reboots the terminal afterwards. Please notice that the application will automatically start
up after a reboot. Also used when you need to update a terminal without overwriting the settings already in
the terminal. This will not delete any data stored in the terminal memory. We recommend that you un-install
previous versions of MotoScan on the devices before installing the most recent version

Uninstall MotoScan
This will delete MotoScan software on the device. The license stays on the device even if you delete the
application. This will also not delete any data stored in the terminal memory.

Start MotoScan on device


This will start up the application on the docked device. It allows the administrator to start up the MotoScan
application at the terminal without having to navigate in Windows CE. This is very handy on hand terminals
without touch screen.

As the application runs on the terminal, the operating system (Windows CE) is not visible at all, interaction
with Windows is shielded off and the operating system is hidden from the users.

Activate license
After transferring the application to the terminal, you need to activate, buy a license or run in demo-mode. If
your device stays in demo-mode, everything will be working correct but only 1 record will be stored on the
terminal.

You need to have your device placed in the cradle, and then press “Activate License”.
The ”Activate License” button will start an Internet browser and go to the registration site of the MotoScan
software.

This needs to be done for each unit that needs to be unlocked from demo-mode. Follow the activation
procedure to get your system up and running right away.

Page 19

Innovative scan apps


Autostart MotoScan on device
If you select this option, the device will update next time you press, “Transfer settings”.
If the device then later is warm-booted or cold-booted, the MotoScan application will automatically startup
on the device.

Database

The database option is used to translate the scanned object to a readable text. Ex if scanning an item
number, the database can translate that into clear text of the product. The setup of the database is done
under option “CSV converter configuration”. Use of the database fields are done in the menu configuration.
All input to the database are based on CSV file; they can easily be made in text notes or in Excel.

Page 20

Innovative scan apps


CSV converter configuration:

Source CSV file


Select the CSV file with the translation code that are send to the handterminal.

CSV file separator


Select the separator character used in the CSV file. It possible to select “;”, “,”, “-” or “_“

First line is header (Skip)


If the first line in the CSV, contains the column names then it can be skipped by selecting “Yes”.

MotoScan database directory


Select the destination directory of the database.

RUN TEST
Load the CSV file on the screen press RUN TEST.

FTP Server Setup
We recommend using Filezilla FTP server with MotoScan for easy setup. Any FTP server can be used, but to
get the best use of the database functionality over FTP, it must support returning timestamp through FTP
(MDTM). If not, the terminal cannot check if the database has been changed and will download it each time
the terminal synchronizes to the FTP server.

The FTP user must have access to read/write/delete/append in the FTP folder.

To set up Filezilla FTP server, please download and install Filezilla server from:

https://filezilla-project.org/index.php

Please follow the steps below to setup the FTP server to work with MotoScan 4.0 and later:

 Install the software, during the installation be aware of how the software starts. Use the
recommended options if in doubt. If default options are used, the FTP server will with Windows as a
service.

 When the FTP server installed, launch the program; click “ok" and go to “edit”  “users”, click “Add”
on the right side of the screen.

 Create an account to use when sending data to the FTP server, note that usernames are case
sensitive. Check “Password” and enter a password for the account.

 Now go to the “shared folders sub menu”, click “Add” and navigate to the folder you want to use for
FTP server. It is highly recommended to have a dedicated folder for this. Click “Set as home dir” and
make sure all boxes under “Files” and “Directories” are checked.

 If you are unable to access the FTP server Windows firewall might be blocking the incoming
connections, try to disable the firewall or add an exception if you are experiencing this issue.

Navigating hand terminal with the keypad / F-keys
In the main menu, you can enter a menu by pressing the corresponding number of the menu or press the
Up/Down arrow and select the menu by pressing the Enter key. As this app is made to support non-touch
devices, the touch screen (if any on you device) is not active within the MotoScan application.

Once you have entered a menu, you have following navigational options:

UP/DOWN keys: Navigate between fields

Alfa/Num keyboard input mode: Press the orange colored “A“ button to shift between numeric and
alphanumeric keys. If you experience that the device will not react to F-key press, you may have pressed
the orange key by accident, and the F-key press will not work. Press the orange key again to get back to
numeric input mode.

F-Keys:
To use a function key, you must press the F key followed by the number. F + 1 are a F1 key press.
Some hand terminals has direct F-keys on dedicated keys.

F1: Shows a list of saved registrations since last synchronization.


Browse through the registrations with the arrow keys.
Press Enter to return to you previous screen
Within this view, the F2 key press will delete the current record shown on the screen.

F7: Change from positive to negative value in a numeric field

F9 or ESC: Exit and return to main menu

F3 + F9: When you are in the main menu this key combination exits the MotoScan application and returns to
the operating system of the device. For terminals without F-buttons, Left+right will have the same function.
This is for administrative use only.

When is a registration saved?


When all fields in a registration have been filled and cursor is situated in the last field, you can press the
Enter key to save the registration. The terminal will signal a confirmation beep to let the user know that this
registration is complete. The fields are cleared and ready for next registration.

MT2000 WIFI setup


The following steps will setup the Motorola MT2000 terminal for WIFI. It can be difficult to do on a device
without touchscreen; this guide will show how it can be setup using remote control software.

To setup WIFI on the scanner, we recommend downloading and installing Sparus EveryWan from the
following location:

http://appupdate.npt-licenses.dk/files/tools/sparus-remote-support.exe

When installing the software please make sure to remove any checks to automatically update the software.
Please also remove the check in “Auto start Remote support when a device is connected to the PC”.

This will allow you to remote control the terminal from a PC for easy setup of the device. Connect the device
you wish to configure to the pc and start up Sparus EveryWan, it should automatically detect the connected
device. If not, go to the menu Connection  Connect.

You should now be able to see the terminals interface on the PC. To set up WIFI on the scanner please do
the following steps:
