An Eye-Fi card is a secure digital high-capacity (SDHC) memory card with wireless function. Using an Eye-Fi card you 
can scan and transfer images wirelessly from the Xerox Mobile Scanner to your computer, online file sharing site, or 
mobile device. 
The Eye-Fi card provided with your scanner can transfer both JPG and PDF files, including multi-page PDF files. The 
instructions in this section will take you through configuring the card settings to transfer both file types.
You will need to install the Eye-Fi Center software on your computer to activate the card and register it to an Eye-Fi 
account. The Eye-Fi Center software installer is located on the Eye-Fi card. After you have activated the Eye-Fi card 
with your account, you can then configure the options to send the image files to your computer, online account, or 
mobile device.
Currently you can transfer images to iOS and Android based mobile devices. BlackBerry and Windows mobile 
devices are not supported at this time.

Install the Eye-Fi Center Application
Before you begin installing the software, make sure you have an active Internet connection. The Eye-Fi software will 
look for updated software during installation and you will be prompted to install any available updates.
You can use either a standard memory card reader or install the software with the Eye-Fi card in the scanner, 
connected and powered on.
Note: Do not delete any files or folders that are already on the Eye-Fi card when you first use it. A folder named 
DCIM is created when images are saved to the card. This is the only folder that you should modify or delete from 
the card. 
Tip: the scanner automatically powers off after 2 minutes to conserve battery power. If you decide to install the 
software using the scanner as the memory card reader, tap the function button occasionally to keep the scanner 
powered on while installing the software.
1. With the scanner off and Eye-Fi card in the scanner, connect the cable to the scanner.
2. Press and hold the power button on the scanner until you see a light flash on the scanner. The computer 
detects the scanner as a disc drive.

Mac users—an Eye-Fi icon appears on the desktop.
Note: if Eye-Fi does not appear on the desktop (Mac users) or if AutoRun does not prompt you (Windows users), 
open a computer window to locate the disc drive. You can also try plugging the scanner into a different USB port if 
the scanner is not being detected properly.

Log In and Activate the Eye-Fi Card
Make sure the Eye-Fi card is in a memory card reader or in the scanner with the power on before you continue.
When the Eye-Fi Center opens the first time after installation, a login window is displayed. If you already have an 
Eye-Fi account please login now. Your new Eye-Fi card will be activated to your existing account. If this is your first 
time using Eye-Fi, you need to create an account. A valid Email address is required for registering, activating, and 
using the Eye-Fi card.
As you go through the card activation steps described below, you will also be configuring the Eye-Fi card’s network 
settings and image transfer options. We recommend that you leave the default options selected during setup. You 
can change these options later.
Note: If the scanner times out during the registration process, turn it on again by pressing the power button until a 
light flashes.
1. Launch the Eye-Fi Center application as follows:
Windows users—open Start > Eye-Fi > Eye-Fi Center. 
Mac users—open the Applications folder, access the Eye-Fi folder, then Eye-Fi Center.
2. Input your email address and password in the appropriate fields. If you are logging into an existing account 
click the login button. If you are creating an account, re-type the password and click the option to create the 
account. 
3. If prompted to update the firmware on the card, do so by clicking the Update button.
During the firmware update it is important that the Eye-Fi card is not removed from the computer. If you are 
using an memory card reader, make sure you leave the card in the computer until the Eye-Fi application 
displays a window that the firmware update is complete. If the Eye-Fi card is in the scanner, the scanner lights 
will continuously flash while the update is in process. The lights will stop flashing when the firmware update is 
complete. 
When the firmware update is complete, you can proceed with activating the card and configuring the card 
settings.

The Eye-Fi Card Settings
This section describes configuring the Eye-Fi card settings for scanning and wireless transfer of images. For any 
options not described here-in, clicking on the help button in the Eye-Fi center window will open the online help site 
for the Eye-Fi Center application.
Many of the options discussed in this section will have already been configured based on your selections while 
registering and activating the card. The purpose of this section is to describe the most commonly configured 
options for the Eye-Fi card. 
Some of the options in the Eye-Fi Center can only be configured when the Eye-Fi card is connected to the computer 
as those settings are saved to the Eye-Fi card. Other options do not require the Eye-Fi card to be connected as the 
settings are saved in the Eye-Fi Center and to your Eye-Fi account when applicable. 
The Eye-Fi Helper Utility
The Eye-Fi Helper utility is the link between your computer and your online account and is responsible for routing 
files to your computer from the Eye-Fi Servers. The Eye-Fi Helper also relays the settings you choose in the Eye-Fi 
Center application to your online account as needed. For example, when you enable Eye-Fi View in the Eye-Fi Center, 
the Eye-Fi Helper passes this setting to the Eye-Fi servers, and when you log into your account at www.eye.fi, the you 
will be able to view your files online after you scan. Alternatively, if you do not enable Eye-Fi View in the Eye-Fi 
Center, when you go to www.eye.fi and log into your account, you will have the option to enable Eye-Fi View at that 
time. When you enable Eye-Fi view online, the Eye-Fi Helper utility passes this information to the Eye-Fi Center on 
your computer, and the next time you open the settings for your account, you will see that Eye-Fi View is enabled in 
the Eye-Fi Center. The Eye-Fi Helper maintains a constant link between your computer and the Eye-Fi servers.
The Eye-Fi Helper, which is installed when you install the Eye-Fi center application, starts automatically at the end of 
the installation and each time the computer starts. When the Eye-Fi Helper is running it displays an icon next to your 
system clock.
To close the Eye-Fi Helper utility, click on the icon and select Exit or Quit from the menu. You can start the Eye-Fi 
Helper by clicking on its icon in the Eye-Fi folder located in the applications list for your computer.
To prevent the Eye-Fi Helper utility from starting automatically each time the computer starts, click on the icon and 
then click on Auto-start Eye-Fi Helper to deselect that option.
