Scanner Operation
Audible Indicators
When the scanner is operational, the scanner provides audible feedback to
indicate the status of the scanner and the last scan. Eight settings are available
for the tone of the beep (normal, six alternate tones and no tone).
One Beep – On Power Up
When the unit powers up, the green LED turns on, then the red LED flashes and
the scanner beeps once. The red LED will remain on for the duration of the
beep. The scanner is now ready to scan.
One Beep – During Operation
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the red LED will flash and the
scanner beeps once (if programmed to do so). If the scanner does not beep
once and the red light does not flash, then the bar code has not been
successfully read.
Three Beeps – During Operation
When entering the configuration mode, the red LED flashes while the scanner
simultaneously beeps three times. The red LED continues to flash until the unit
exits configuration mode. Upon exiting configuration mode, the scanner beeps
three times and the red LED stops flashing.
When configured for communication timeout, three beeps during operation
indicates that a communication timeout has occurred.
