Both are located to the rear base of the unit – see attached illustration. 4.2 BGR Configuration The BGR135 serial port configuration, including the host protocol, may be achieved in either of the following ways 1/ Using the Access “ZippyTools” utility. 2/ Using a configuration barcode provided by Access.
Page 11 of 12 Revision 1  Access Limited 2011 - All Rights Reserved To read a bar coded boarding pass, place the document face-up into the bar code reader zone. As soon as a document is detected, the bar code reader’s LEDs will illuminate the document (a bar code on a mobile phone or PDA will be automatically illuminated at a lower level than a bar code on a paper document). The bar code imager is omni-directional, and a well-printed document should be read almost immediately. Better read performance will be achieved if the document is held flat on the surface under the bar code reader. The boarding application will determine if the document is valid, and a message will be sent to the operator message display. Either the green LED (OK to Board) or the red LED (Do Not Board) will be illuminated. 5. Operation 5.1 Barcode Reading
