Connect the Inventory Scanner

Unless there is a change in your network, you shouldn't have to reconnect the inventory scanner each time. If using a new inventory scanner, you will need to connect it.

  1. From within in the Inventory Event navigate to Mobile Device Management.

  1. Click the Wi-Fi Symbol.

  1. In the Ascend Agent Information enter:
    1. Wi-Fi Network: Enter the name of your Wi-Fi network.
    2. Wi-Fi Password: Enter the password of your Wi-Fi network.
  2. Click Save.

  1. Under Mobile Device Management click the QR code.

  1. The AscendScan QR Code prompt will display.

  1. Using the blue buttons on the side of the scanner (or blue trigger on the grip), scan the QR Code on the computer screen.
  2. If the scanner connects to your Network the AscendScan QR Code prompt will turn green and place a green checkmark in the middle of the QR code.

If you have multiple scanners to connect, press Generate New on the AscendScan QR Code prompt to generate a new QR code to connect that device to your Wi-Fi network.

 
  1. If the scanner fails to connect, you can also try reentering your Wi-Fi network into to Mobile Device Management by clicking the Wi-Fi icon.
