7 Using the L200 Explorer 
The TAGSYS L200 Explorer is utility software that enables the user to identify the current smart 
label reader system or system components (reader reference, firmware version, supported chips, 
etc.) and to perform the following tasks: 
•  Perform debug operations and reading tests  
•  Configure the reader for operation in Standalone mode 
•  DSP firmware upgrades 
The L200 Explorer resembles a typical Windows
®
-based user interface. A Wizard function 
 is 
provided to guide the user through each step of how to read or program specific smart labels 
(tags).

An on-line help function is included (CTRL+H).  
 
For optimal performances during debug operations, the Lx00 reader must be connected via 
the monitoring port, using a parallel cable (supplied), to the host PC running the L200 
Explorer software. 
However, a serial connection is also possible if the STX-E GemCore
®
 application, version 2.0 
or more recent, is downloaded into the Medio™ Lx00 Reader. In this case, performances may 
be affected.  
The STX-E Standalone mode can only be configured using the serial communication link.
