This scanner should only be powered by a UL listed or CUL Certified Power Supply having limited power
source of Class 2 outputs, rated +5.2 VDU / minimum 0,64 A, minimum 40 °C or the scanner should be
directly powered by a UL listed and CSA certified computer/POS system, having limited power source of
Class 2 outputs, rated 8 Vdc to 16 Vdc / minimum 0,55 A, minimum 40 °C.
Radio and television interference
Operation of this equipment in a residential area can cause interference with radio or television reception.
This can be determined by turning the equipment off and on. The user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:

Powered USB) allows the unit to communicate with the host system with
considerable flexibility.
Scanning Capability
The unique design of scan pattern provides an ideal scan performance in the
retail environment.
Decoding Capability
The barcode decoding capability is up-to-date, including GS1 DataBar and
all major 1D barcode symbologies.
The STAR reconstruction software enables the reading of fragmented and
damaged barcodes.
Upgradability

1.1LASER SAFETY
English:
This scanner complies with safety standard IEC 825-1 (1993) for a Class I laser
product. It also complies with U.S. 21CFR1040 as applicable to a Class IIa
laser product. Avoid long term viewing of direct laser light.
Optical:
The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard.
Optical instruments include binoculars, microscopes and magnifying glasses
but do not include eye glasses worn by the user.
Radiant Energy:
This scanner uses a low-power laser diode operating at 630~670 nm in an
opto-mechanical scanner resulting in less than 0.6 mW peak output power.
Laser light observed at 13 cm (5.1 in.) above the window through a 7 mm (0.28
in.) aperture and averaged over 1000 seconds is less than 3.9 µW per CDRH
Class IIa specification. Do not attempt to remove the protective housing of the
scanner, as unscanned laser light with a peak output up to 0.8 mW could be
accessible inside.
Laser Light Viewer:
The scanner window is the only aperture through which laser light may be
observed on this product. A failure of the scanner motor, while the laser diode
continues to emit a laser beam, may cause emission levels to exceed those for
safe operation. The scanner has safeguards to prevent this occurrence. If,
however, a stationary laser beam is emitted, the failing scanner should be
disconnected from its power source immediately.
Adjustments:
Do not attempt any adjustments to or alteration of this product. Do not remove
the scanner‟s protective housing. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
WARNING!
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous laser light exposure.

on its data port (RS232, KBW, or USB).
Power injector
Some applicable this scanner interface cables have a power injector to connect
an external power supply in case the host system cannot supply sufficient
power for the scanner.

Powered USB, USB
NOTE
Though some cables have a power injector, this does not
mean that you must use a power supply.
For safety reasons, an automatic switch will disconnect the
power provided by the host system, as soon as a separate
power adapter is connected to the power injector.
