How to calibrate the Datalogic bookblock scanner?

If you need to setup a new Datalogic DS-1500 scanner you have to upload a parameter file to the scanner with the Datalogic Winhost software.

From BBU system serial 200.089 (and upwards) Winhost is by default installed - what if you don't have Datalogic Winhost yet setup on your computer? click here
