      Connecting a Tru-Test XRS2i / SRS2i Handheld Scanner to an Android Device for Use in Agrinous

      This guide will walk you through connecting your Tru-Test handheld scanner (XRS2i or SRS2i) to your Android device so it can be used with Agrinous.

        • Press the button below the green tick (✔) on the right of the screen.

      4. The Connect Mode will now display as HID.
