AdaptaScan software can download a configuration to a single
Reader or multiple Readers on a DeviceNet peer-to-peer network.
AdaptaScan Bar Code Reader configurations are downloaded:

directly through the Configuration Port connector on the Reader

through any Reader on the same DeviceNet peer-to-peer network

When Configuration Port is selected as the communications
channel, a configuration cable is required. The configuration cable
(Catalog No. 2755-NC48 Series B Reader, 2755-NC43 Series A
Reader) connects the configured communications port (see
Preferences, page 2–18) of the computer running AdaptaScan
software to the Configuration Port connector of the Reader.
Downloads may also be done through the Reader serial
communication ports when scanner protocol is selected (see page
8–6).
