3. Scan the linking bar code on the top of the Access Point to establish a connection between the Access Point and the scanner. The scanner emits a short beep and flashes the green LED to confirm a connection with the Access Point. The Access Point’s Page button remains blue.
Managing Connections
Only one scanner may be linked to the Access Point at a time. To link a different scanner to the Access Point, use the new scanner to scan the Linking bar code on the Access Point. That unlinks the first scanner and links the second one.
Connection Range
The scanner is in communication with the Access Point even if it is not transmitting bar code data. If you take the linked scanner out of range of the Access Point, communication with the module will be lost and you will have to reconnect the scanner to the Access Point. To reconnect the scanner, scan the Linking bar code.
Changing Batteries
If the scanner turns off due to a low battery, you can change the battery without losing the link with the Access Point, provided the scanner is in range. A few seconds after the scanner powers up, the scanner relinks to the module. Refer to your User’s Guide at www.honeywellaidc.com for additional information about charging the batteries.

Low Power Mode
When there is no activity within a specified time period, the scanner enters a low power mode. The default time out period is one hour. Pull the scanner’s trigger to power the scanner back up. If the scanner was linked to the Access Point when it went to “sleep,” it will re-link as long as it is in range.
If multiple scanners use the same Access Point, it is possible to inadvertently unlink a scanner that is in “sleep” mode, that has a dead battery, or is in the process of getting a new battery. To prevent this from happening, you can disable the sleep mode (time out) by scanning the No Time Out bar code below.
No Time Out (0)
Unlinking the Scanner from Access Point
If you know that your scanner is not going to be used for a while, you can unlink the scanner by scanning the Unlink Scanner bar code below.

Page Button
When you press the Page button, the scanner associated with that Access Point will begin beeping (3 short and 1 long beep). If you pull the trigger on a scanner that is beeping in response, that scanner will stop beeping. Pressing the Page button a second time will also stop the scanner’s beeping.
LED Dimmer
Scan a bar code to set the brightness of your Page button.

Standard Product Defaults
This bar code resets all standard product default settings.
Note: Resetting standard defaults disconnects the scanner from the Access Point. Scan the Linking bar code to re-establish a connection. Refer to your User’s Guide at www.honeywellaidc.com for additional information about product defaults.
