QuickScan 1000 is certified in the U.S. to conform to the
requirements of DHHS/CDRH 21CFR Subchapter J for Class II
laser products. QuickScan 1000 scanners are also certified as
Class 2 laser products to the requirements of IEC 825-1:1993.
Class 2 and Class II products are not considered to be hazardous.
The QuickScan 1000 contains internally a Visible Laser Diode
(VLD) at a wavelength of 650-670 nanometers. The scanner is
designed so that there can be no human access to harmful levels
of laser light during normal operation, user maintenance, or during
prescribed service operations.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to open or otherwise service any components in
the optics cavity. Opening or servicing any part of the optics
cavity by unauthorized personnel may violate laser safety
regulations. The optics system is a factory only repair item.

How to Scan
Reference Figure 3 and follow these tips to get the best scanning results:
1. The scanner must be pointed at a slight angle in relation to the
barcode (Not perpendicularto the barcode.)
2. The laser beam must cross the entire bar code. (The scanner
cannot correctly read a bar code if the entire bar code is not
scanned.)
Figure 3
Troubleshooting
If the scanner is not operating properly, the following checks should be
performed: ReferenceFigures 4 and5.
1. Since the scanner can receive its power from the host computer
(Power Off the Terminal—P.O.T.) or an external power supply, it
will not operate without the system power on (Figure 4a) or if the
externalpower supply has failed.
2. Check that the bar code labels are of sufficient quality to be
recognizedby the scanner(Figure 4b). Wrinkled, smudged,or
torn bar codes can cause the scanner to not read at all. If you
suspect that label quality is a problem, scan a known good bar
code to check the scanner's read operation. Is the scanner
programmedto read thebar codesymbology desired? Consultthe
QuickScan 1000™ Scanner Programming Guide (P/N R44-2018)
for more information (Figure 4c).*
3. Ensure that the scanner's interface type is compatible with the host
terminal by consulting your POS system manual and/or the
QuickScan 1000 Scanner Programming Guide (P/N R44-2018).
4. Verify that the interface (I/F) cable is securely attached to the
scannerhandle (Figure 4d). Ifyou need to disconnect/reconnect
the I/F cable from the scanner, insert the tip of a paper clip into the
cable release hole shown in Figure 5. Push the clip in to depress
the connector latch and release the cable. To reconnect the cable,
orient the cable with its connector inside the scanner handle and
press it in firmly to seat and latch securely in place.
5. Verify that the interface) cable is securely attached to the host
(Figure 4e). Consult your technical support manager or refer to
your host system manual to verify the proper connection for the
scanner.
6. If an external power supply is used, exchange the power supply
with a known good power supply (Figure 4g).
Ifthe scanner receivespower from thehost (P.O.T.), connectthe
scanner to a known good host.
If the scanner still does not function properly, contact your local supplier
orPSC Customer SupportServices.

Figure 2
Refer to Figures 1 and 2, and follow these steps to install the scanner:
1. Turn the host power off (consult the manual for your host
terminalpower-off procedures). See Figure2a.
2. Connect the interface (I/F) cable tothe proper porton the Host
terminal (Figure 2b).
If your scanner will receive Power Off the Terminal, skip to step 5.
3. Connect the power cordfrom the AC/DCadapter at theI/F
connector(Figure 2c).
4. Connect the AC/DC adapter at the wall outlet (Figure 2d).
5. Turn host power on. (Consult the manual for your host
terminalfor power-on procedures.)
6. Verify operation--point the laser spot at a sample bar code to
scan it and confirm that the scanner reads by beeping and/or
sending the data to the host terminal.
7. If your installation includes a QS1000™ scanner stand and you
wish to attach it to a countertop, unscrew the gooseneck/cradle
assembly from the base as shown in Figure 1a. Secure the
mount plate to the counter with four screws, then reassemble
the stand in place. The scanner rests in the cradle as shown in
Figure1b.
Whenthe scanner ispowered on, itsLaserSense™ feature
automatically detects when you move a bar code label into
range and clearly shows you where the bar code should be
placed by projecting a laser marker spot.
