1、Product Introduction
This user guide applies to M4（M40）, which identify 1D&2D barcodes by 2D image
scanning pattern, and apply the complete set of patent technology developed by Guangzhou
YOKO Electron Co., Ltd. The scanners above are of strong identification capability, and
support automatic continuous scanning mode with fast and flexible scanning speed.
In this chapter, we will introduce the instruction of scanner with pictures, please
compare to the scanner you bought when reading this user guide, which is good for your
understanding. This chapter applies to regular users, maintenance personnel, and software
developers.
1.1 Main feature
* Complete independent research and development, possessing the complete set of
patent, plug and play without the need to install driver.
* Wide voltage design to avoid the data can’t be transmitted due to voltage fluctuation.
* 32-bit master chip equipped with patented software, the scanner can smoothly decode
reflective, wrinkled, blurred, and colorful barcode, and can also normally scan in light and
dark environment.
* Adopt all tantalum capacitors and anti-oxidation optical technology, avoiding the
problem of performance declining after long-term using.
1.2 Unpack your device
After you open the shipping carton containing the product, take the following steps:
⚫Take the accessories for scanner out from package.
⚫Check with the packing list to see if everything is complete and in good condition.

1.5 Start-up, shutdown, standby and restart
Start-up：Connect host computer with scanner, which will automatically start-up and in
working state.
Shutdown：Remove the data cable which is connected with scanner; remove the USB which
is connected with host computer; remove the power adapter which is inserted into RS-232
serial port.
Standby：Scanner with automatic sleep standby function, if 30 minutes without work it will be
in standby mode, but it will automatically start-up when barcode approach.
Restart：If the scanner crashes or doesn't respond, please switch it off and restart.
1.6 Maintenance
* The window must be kept clean, the supplier do not bear the guarantee responsibility due
to the improper maintenance.
* Avoid the window being wear and tear or scratched by hard object
* Use the hairbrush to remove the stain on the window
* Clean the window with a soft cloth, such as lens cleaning cloth
* Spraying liquid onto the window is prohibited.
* Prohibit any cleaning solvents, except for the cleaning water.
1.7 Reading skills
If the barcode is small, it should be closer to the scanning window; if the barcode is
large, it should be far away from the scanning window a little more, thus easier to be read
correctly.
If the barcode is highly reflective (for example, the coated surface), you may need to tilt
the barcode at an angle to successfully scan it.
