After plugging in the Scanning Tool, you must select the operating mode and Activate the device before you can begin scanning endpoints. If you later decide to change operating modes (for example, from Standalone Scanning Tool to Management Program Tool), you must reset the device to factory default settings.
For more information, see Resetting the Device.
This function is only available on Windows endpoints.
You can view the current activation status of your Scanning Tool by opening the console and going to the Status and Update tab.
