Power Connection —
Plug the AC Adapter in to an approved AC wall socket with the
cable facing downwards (as shown in Figure 1) to prevent undue strain on the socket.
Linking the Reader to a Base Station
To link a reader to a Base Station, press the Link Button (see Figure 3) on the Base Station for at least one second to place the base in "Link Mode," then scan the barcode below or the Link barcode located on the Base Station using the reader to be linked. The
Link barcode on the Base Station contains an identifier that is unique to that Base Station. This enables the reader to quickly find and link to that Base Station.
A successful link is indicated by three ascending tones from the reader. A high-low-highlow tone indicates the link attempt was unsuccessful. A single green LED flash during
this tone indicates no Base Station was discovered. Two green LED flashes during this
tone indicates that more than one Base Station was discovered and the reader did not
link. Three LED flashes during this tone indicate a security error.

Paging Feature
To help locate a missing reader, press the Base Station Link Button momentarily (less
than one second). This will cause the reader to beep five times at its loudest volume setting.
Programming
The reader is typically factory-configured with a set of default features. After scanning
the interface barcode from the Interfaces section, you can select other options and customize your reader through use of the instructions and programming barcodes available
in the corresponding features section for your interface and also the Data Editing and
Symbologies chapters of this manual.
Using the Programming Barcodes
This manual contains feature descriptions and barcodes which allow you to reconfigure
your reader and Base Station. Some programming barcode labels, like the Resetting the
Product Configuration to Defaults on page 11
to enact the change. Most of the programming labels in this manual, however, require
the reader to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/
EXIT barcode once to enter Programming Mode. Once the reader is in Programming
Mode, you can scan a number of parameter settings before scanning the ENTER/EXIT
barcode a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode
and return the reader to normal operation.
NOTE
, require only the scan of that single label
There are some exceptions to the typical programming sequence
described above. Please read the description and setting instructions carefully when configuring each given programmable feature.

type matching the system the reader will be connected to. Next, proceed to the corresponding chapter in this manual (also listed in Table 1) to configure any desired settings
and features associated with that interface.
NOTE
Unlike some other programming features and options, interface
selections require that you scan only one programming barcode
label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT barcode prior to scanning an
interface selection barcode.
Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the disabled state
when powered up. If additional scanner configuration is desired
while in this state, pull the trigger and hold it for five seconds. The
scanner will change to a state that allows programming with barcodes.

Label Gone Timeout
This feature sets the time after the last label segment is seen before the reader prepares for
a new label. The timeout can be set within a range of 10 milliseconds to 2,550 milliseconds (2.55 seconds) in 10ms increments.
Follow these instructions to set this feature:
1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds.
2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments). Pad the result with leading zeroes to yield three digits. For example: 0 = 000, 5 = 005, 20 = 020, etc.
3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming
Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT LABEL GONE TIMEOUT SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate three alpha-numeric characters from the keypad in Appendix E, Key-
pad representing the duration which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a
two-beep indication after the last character.
NOTE
Label Gone Timeout
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to
abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming
Mode.
This completes the procedure. See Ta bl e 2 for some examples of how to set this feature.

Good Read LED Duration
This feature specifies the amount of time that the Good Read LED remains on following
a good read. The good read LED on time can be set within a range of 100 milliseconds
to 25,500 milliseconds (0.1 to 25.5 seconds) in 100ms increments.
Follow these instructions to set this feature:
1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds. A setting of 0 means that the good read
LED stays on until the next time the trigger is pulled.
2. Divide the desired setting by 100 (setting is in 100 ms increments). Pad the result with
leading zeroes to yield three digits. For example: 0 = 000, 5 = 005, 20 = 020, etc.
3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming
Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT GOOD READ LED DURATION SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate three digits from the keypad in Appendix E, Keypad representing the
duration which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication
after the last character.

Scanning Features
Scan Mode
Selects the scan operating mode for the reader. Selections are:
Scanning Features
Trigger Single —
When the trigger is pulled, scanning is activated until one of the fol-
lowing occurs:
- Scanning Active Time has elapsed
- a label has been read
- the trigger is released
This mode is associated with typical handheld reader operation: when the trigger is
pulled, scanning starts and the product scans until the trigger is released, or a label is read,
or the maximum Scanning Active Time has elapsed.
Trigger Hold Multiple —
When the trigger is pulled, scanning starts and the product
scans until the trigger is released or Scanning Active Time has elapsed. Reading a label does
not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads of the same
label while in this mode.
Trigger Pulse Multiple —
When the trigger is pulled, continuous scanning is activated
until Scanning Active Time has elapsed or the trigger has been released and pulled again.
Double Read Timeout1 prevents undesired multiple reads of the same label while in this
mode.
Flashing —
The reader flashes1 on and off regardless of the trigger status. Flash rate is
controlled by Flash On Time and Flash Off Time.
Always On —
No trigger pull is required to read a barcode. Scanning is continually on.
If the trigger is pulled, the reader acts as if it is in Trigger Single Mode. Double Read
Timeout1 prevents undesired multiple reads of the same label while in this mode.
Stand Mode —
No trigger pull is required to read a barcode. Scanning is turned on au-
tomatically when an item is placed in reader’s field of view. If the trigger is pulled, the
1
reader acts as if it in single read mode. Double Read Timeout
prevents undesired multiple
reads of the same label while in this mode.
Trigger Object Sense —
This mode is similar to Stand Mode, except that a trigger pull
is required to activate the decoder.
