tem Administrator.
Bad bar code.
Check to be sure the bar code symbol
is not defaced.
Too far away
from bar code.
Be sure you are within proper scanning
range.

not enabled.
Be sure the SPT 1800 is programmed
to accept the type of bar code you are
scanning.
Beep is not en-
abled.
If you are expecting a beep on a good
decode and don’t hear one, check that
the application is set to generate a
beep on good decode.
Battery is low.
If the scanner stops emitting a laser
beam when you press the trigger,
check your battery level. When the bat-
tery is low, the scanner shuts off before
the terminal notifies you of the low bat-
tery condition.
Note: If, after performing these checks,
the scanner is still not reading sym-
bols, contact your distributor or Symbol
Technologies.
