The SA8800 Series Pro Wireless Bluetooth Barcode Scanner is an easy-to-use handheld device that automatically pairs with your computer using a USB dongle. There are several quick settings (reading modes, language, light, sound, vibration, and sleep mode settings, etc.) included in the device's quick setting guide and plastic cards, each assigned a unique barcode or QR code.
Each quick setting can be configured immediately with a single scan.
Check the manufacturer's webpage for detailed product description and warranty information.
After paired with your computer, the scanning device is ready to be used in the Inventory module without any further installation process.
Important: Keyboard Settings

Also, make sure that your scanner is on par with the US keyboard layout on your computer: in the Language settings section of your Quick Start Guide, scan:
- English at the top or
- International keyboard barcode at the bottom of the page to select the language of your scanner.
