Getting Started Connecting the Scanner The scanner kit you ordered to match your interface should provide a compatible cable for your installation. Alternatively, if your scanner receives Power Off the Terminal (POT) it might be possible to connect using a cable from a previously existing installation (except for USB). If you wish to connect using an existing cable, but cannot use POT, a short adapter cable is available.
Figure 1 Error Codes If an error is detected, the scanner will sound a long low tone (for three seconds) and flash its LED, indicating a failure. When this occurs, press the Scanner Pushbutton to hear the error code. If it is configured to do so, the scanner will sound a series of beeps corresponding to the error code and/or flash its LED simultaneous to the beeps.
Getting Started Mount Installation Options for mounting the scanner to a wall or countertop include an L-Bracket or stackable Risers (straight or tilted). onstrates the use of stackable Risers. NOTE Figure 2. L-Bracket Mount shows the scanner being seated in an L-Bracket.
CAUTION Risers may be stacked as shown in scanner by 1.5” (38.1mm). Riser pieces readily snap together or apart and allow for adjustable tilt of the scanner/L-Bracket of up to 20 degrees in 5° increments. of a tilted scanner.
The scanner’s beeper sounds and its green LED illuminates to indicate various functions or errors on the scanner. The tables below list these indications. One exception to the behaviors listed in the tables is that the scanner’s functions are programmable, and may or may not be turned on.
The Power-On Beep indication is a configurable feature which can be enabled or disabled. When enabled, this beep Indi- cates the scanner has finished all its power up tests and is now ready for operation. The good read beep indication is configurable. Options include: Enable/disable, frequency, duration and volume.
Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan a START/END bar code once to enter Programming Mode. Once the scanner is in Programming Mode, you can scan a number of parameter settings before scanning the START/ END bar code a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode and return the scanner to normal operation.
Cut a hole in this page and remove it from the manual as indicated to create a sleeve through which bar codes (starting in the following section) can be individually viewed and scanned. It is important that only one bar code at a time be presented to the scanner. Product Reference Guide 1.
