Laser Bar Code Scanner

The Scanner is a breakthrough in affordable laser
scanning. The scanner has the scanning
performance of more expensive laser scanners, the
convenience of hand-held portability, and the
advantage of optional Bluetooth® wireless
technology. In store-and-forward mode you can
capture approximately 500 (optional 4000) UPC bar
code symbols, and then automatically upload them
when you connect the scanner or move back into
range. The Cordless Scanner has a 10 to 15 meter
real-time operating range, and an unlimited
store-and-forward range with automatic
reconnection.

Setting Up Your Scanner

1. Obtain software from the seller.

2. Install the software. For instructions, see the
Software User's Guide.

3. Install the batteries in the scanner. Follow
the steps outlined in "Installing and Replacing
Batteries."

4. For a cordless scanner install the Bluetooth
adapter in the host device. The host device is
the PC or PDA that will receive the bar codes
from the scanner. For installation instructions,
see the documentation provided with the
adapter.

5. Configure the software to connect to the
scanner.

Note for Cordless Scanner:

Place the scanner in discoverable mode by

pressing the button.

The default Bluetooth Passkey is 0000.

6. Verify that the scanner is working

correctly, see the Software User's Guide.

Scanner Modes

The scanner runs in two modes: real-time and
store-and-forward.

Real-time is when the scanner is connected to a cable
or a Bluetooth host device. The scanner uploads the
bar codes as you scan them.

Batch mode is when the scanner is disconnected or
out of range. It stores the bar codes in memory.
When you plug in the scanner or move it back into
range, the scanner automatically connects to the host
device and uploads the stored bar codes.

Three beeps indicates the scanner's memory is full. If
this occurs, either connect the cable or move the
scanner back into range of the Bluetooth host device
and wake up the scanner by pushing the button.
When connected, the scanner automatically uploads
the saved bar codes and clears its memory.

Installing and Replacing Batteries

Use only AAA Alkaline batteries in your
Scanner. Please remove the batteries when
you are storing the scanner for more than
30 days.

1. Turn the scanner over so that the back
faces up.

2. Remove the battery cover by pressing
the button at the top of the cover, and
moving the cover down.

3. If there are batteries in the scanner, remove
them.

4. Insert the new batteries so that the positive end
(+) is up on the outside batteries, and down on
the middle battery.

5. Replace the battery cover by inserting the tabs at
the top of the cover into the slots in the back of
the scanner. Slide the cover up.

Battery Life:

Scanner - 100,000+ continuous scans or 24,000+

scans over 12 months at 100 scans/day

Cordless - 76,000+ continuous scans or 16,000+

scans over 8 months at 100 scans/day

How to Scan

1. Aim Scanner - Hold the scanner at a slight
angle to the bar code you wish to scan. (Fig. 1)

2. Press & Hold the Button on top of the scanner
to make the red laser line appear. The laser line
should cover the entire bar code symbol.

3. Release the Button after the Beep and the
the green light blinks. This indicates that the
scanner has successfully scanned the bar code
symbol. Try the sample bar code now.
