Installation
Connect the scanner to the host (terminal) using the interface (I/
F) cable as shown below. A cable from an older existing installa-
tion can be re-used for RS-232 interfaces. If external power is
used/needed, plug the AC Adapter into the AC wall outlet, then
connect it to the unit as shown in ‘b’ of the illustration.
Scan some known-good bar code samples to verify correct oper-
ation. The scanner should beep and/or flash its good read LED1
and send the bar code data to the host or terminal. If not, use the
Troubleshooting section of this guide to identify any problems.

abled” by another user.

How to Scan
Bar codes can be presented to the scanner’s window or pushed
past it using a “sweep” technique. The scanner can also be pro-
grammed to initiate a scan of a cell phone or other LCD bar code
object, or an image capture upon pushing the Camera Button.
Scanner Button
The Scanner Button performs multiple functions, depending on
how long it is pressed:
NOTE
Volume changes made using the Scanner Button are lost
when the scanner is powered down and are reset to the
configured setting. If you wish to permanently change
the volume, use the special programming labels in the
Product Reference Guide.

Camera Button
The Camera Button provides the unit with the ability to capture
images. See Camera Button Mode on page 12 to enable this fea-
ture. Destination and image type can be specified. Reference the
PRG for additional information and programming options.
LED and Beeper Indicators
The scanner’s beeper sounds and its green LED illuminates to
indicate various functions or errors on the scanner. The tables
that follow list these indications. An exception is that the scan-
ner’s functions are programmable, and may or may not be turned
on. For example, some indications (such as the power-up beep)
can be disabled using programming bar code labels.
