1.0 Introduction

Code Corporation is a market leader in manufacturing and distributing bar code readers for Bar Coded Medication
Administration (BCMA). The physical size, configurability, modular design, reliability, and superior bar code reading performance
of Code readers make them a perfect fit for the bedside environment. The Code Reader 2500 (CR2500), in wireless or cabled
configurations, or the Code Reader 1200 (CR1200) cabled reader can be used in this environment. However, Code Corporation
recommends the use of the wireless CR2500 for convenient operation and to eliminate the possibility of a cable interfering with
patient care.

Through Code’s experience in implementing bar code readers in hospitals, the Bar Coded Medication Administration QuickStart
Guide has been developed to provide users quick and easy instructions to configure Code bar code readers to the preferred
workflow, as outlined in this Guide.
