Copyright © Access-IS 2017 1. Overview The BGR700 is a robust boarding gate reader for 2D-barcoded boarding passes, designed specifically with a large throat to allow truly intuitive use with all media types including the latest mobile devices and smartwatches. The BGR700 reads boarding passes presented face up at any angle to ensure fast and intuitive passenger processing. Speed of transaction is enhanced by near-zero latency, so that barcodes are read instantly on presentation. A display, which can be easily read over a wide range of angles and in bright ambient lighting conditions, presents information from the boarding pass to the operator and passenger. Designed for future-proof operation, the BGR700 can be upgraded for contactless near-field communication (NFC) operation in the field. This allows it to cater for the latest developments in NFC-enabled mobile devices and contactless smartcards. • Fast, omnidirectional 1D/2D barcode imager. • Easy-to-read colour LCD display (480 x 272 px) for passenger information. • Large document throat allows smartphones, tablets, and smartwatches to be easily read. • Reads a barcode printed at any position on an A4 (European) or Letter (American) document. • Wide face-up ‘read zone’ allows for intuitive use and fast barcode reads. • Reads IATA-recommended PDF417, QR, Aztec and other 2D and linear symbologies. • Configurable green and red indicator beacons and audio beeper to confirm successful data capture. • A wide range of configurations are available for connection to Common Use Terminal Equipment (CUTE®) or dedicated systems. • RS232 or USB connection to host. • RS232 serial port for receipt printer functionality, for example, seat, flight and passenger data from M1 format barcode documents. • Upgradeable software. • Ethernet port and three USB ports (for future use). • Optional quick release bracket for secure mounting.

Copyright © Access-IS 2017 3. Installation 3.1 Unpack the BGR700 Unpack the BGR700 and ensure that you have the following items: • Advisory notice card. • BGR700 device. • Serial and power cable. or • USB and power cable. • Universal 12 V AC power supply. Report any missing items or damage immediately to your Sales Representative. 3.2 Connect the BGR700 Connectors for host, printer, Ethernet and USB are located on the back of the BGR700. Note: The over-moulding for the host cable is colour-coded green to match label under the connector. The over-moulding for the printer cable is colour-coded blue to match label under the connector. Ethernet and USB ports are reserved for future use. To connect the BGR700: 1. Switch off the computer. 2. Push the RJ50 connector into the host socket on the back of the BGR700 until you hear a click. 3. If using a serial cable, connect the serial connector to a COM port on the computer and finger-tighten the two thumbscrews to secure the connector to the port. If using a USB cable, connect the USB connector to a USB port on the computer. Figure 2: Serial connection cable Figure 3: USB connection cable

Copyright © Access-IS 2017 3.3 Mount with the quick release bracket The BGR700 is simple to install. The optional BGR700 quick release bracket provides a simple means to secure the device to a desktop or podium. The addition of the bracket prevents the hardware being accidentally knocked to the ground and damaged, potentially at a critical time in boarding. In addition, it is a deterrent against agents relocating hardware or theft. Secure the quick release bracket to the desktop or podium using four screws (not supplied). The hole diameter in the quick release bracket is 4.2 mm. Figure 6: Positions of the screws in the quick release bracket plate To attach the BGR700 to the quick release bracket: 1. Hook the BGR700 onto the quick release bracket plate. Figure 7: Attaching the BGR700 to the quick release bracket

Copyright © Access-IS 2017 2. Rotate the BGR700 down to latch on the quick release bracket plate. The stud engages with the slider to lock the BGR700 in place. Figure 8: Securing the BGR700 to the quick release bracket To detach the BGR700 from the quick release bracket: • Push the slider in and remove the BGR700. Figure 9: Detaching the BGR700 from the quick release bracket 3.4 Configure the BGR700 There are two methods to configure the BGR700, including setting the host protocol: 1. Using the BGR Configuration Tool, which you can download from the Access-IS website (http://www.access-is.com/gettingstarted/). 2. Using a configuration barcode provided by Access-IS.

Copyright © Access-IS 2017 4. Operation To read a barcoded boarding pass, place the document face up into the barcode reader zone. As soon as a document is detected, the barcode reader’s LEDs will illuminate the document. Note: The BGR700 will automatically illuminate a barcode on a mobile phone or PDA at a lower level than a barcode on a paper document. The barcode imager is omnidirectional, 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 barcode reader. The boarding application determines if the document is valid, and the BGR700 sends a message to the operator message display. Either the green LED (OK to Board) or the red LED (Do Not Board) is illuminated. If the BGR700 does not appear to be working: • Contact Customer Support ([email protected]) for further assistance. Alternatively, use the Contact Customer Support page on the Access-IS website. Note: Do not attempt to disassemble the BGR700 if it does not operate correctly. Any attempt to do so may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.

Copyright © Access-IS 2017 5. Maintenance Limited maintenance of the BGR700 is required as the unit is free from moving parts and the glass window is protected. 5.1 Cleaning General, monthly cleaning of the imager window (underside of unit) with a lint-free cloth is recommended to remove any dust and build up of debris. If the window is dirty, wipe the glass with a lint-free cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol or use an alcohol wipe. Do not use abrasive cleaners. 5.2 Storage Store the unit in its original box, at a temperature of 0°C to 60°C.
