Offline Mode

If you are heading for a working area which lies outside the Bluetooth

signal range, you may activate the offline mode of the scanner,

following the steps described below. Under this enhanced offline

mode, all scanned data will be stored directly into the buffer memory

of the device. Furthermore, the data entries will be permanently

saved in the buffer memory prior to the manual upload into the

working station, so that you may upload them time and again to your

liking.

Due to the fact that the data entries will be automatically wiped from

the buffer memory during upload, a data loss is possible when

malfunctions occur during upload, e.g. if the working station suffers

an unanticipated system shut down.

An operation in offline mode is strongly recommended under the

following scenarios:

1) During the scanning process, the device often leaves the

Bluetooth signal range;

2) Due to a high quantity of blocking objects, the Bluetooth signal’s

stability can’t be ensured.

1. By scanning the following barcode, the offline mode will be
activated.

Offline mode activation

2. By scanning the following barcode, all data in the buffer memory

will be deleted (only in offline mode).
