mounted on the top of the computer case and contain the beeper and scan engine. The endcap port
is designated as COM 1.
Read all cautions, warnings and labels

Several scanner endcaps are available with the MX1-IS depending on the application. They
consist of a High Performance, Long Range, and Advanced Long Range scanner endcaps.
Externally they appear identical with the same indicators. Barcode scanner operation varies
depending upon the application but, once enabled, the scanners are activated by pressing either the
“Scan” button on the keypad or pulling the trigger on the handle.
Figure 1-6 Scanner Endcap
The range of a scanner is dependent upon many outside influences including size of the barcode,
quality of the barcode printing, material the barcode is printed on, and angle of the scanner endcap
relative to the barcode label. Any of these factors may result in having to re-scan the label from a
different distance or angle.

The left LED (1 - Laser On Indicator) on the top of the laser barcode endcap illuminates red,
indicating laser emission when the laser beam is being emitted. Following a good read, the right
LED (3 - Good Read Indicator) flashes green, indicating a successful scan. Beeps may be heard
after a good read, depending on the application running on the MX1-IS.
The laser automatically turns off after a successful read and is ready to scan again when the Scan
