Miscellaneous Optional Setup Procedures
Hands Free (Presentation) Mode
To use the MS1690 scanner in presentation mode place the scanner in the presentation stand.
Placing the scanner in the stand automatically configures the scanner into presentation mode.
Once the scanner is in the stand and the IR sensor detects an object in the IR activation range
the scanner’s light automatically starts to flash as it attempts to scan the bar code. The scanner
continuously attempts to scan the bar code until either it succeeds or the bar code is removed
from the scanner’s field of view. When scanner successfully reads the bar code it will beep
once, the white LED will flash and the decoded data will be transmitted to the host.
Setting “Beep” Tone
To adjust the beepers frequency and volume scan the appropriate bar code(s).
