Laser Safety
Radiant Energy: The Omnidirectional Laser Scan Module uses one low-power visible laser diode operating at 650nm in an opto­mechanical scanner resulting in less than 3.9uW radiated power as observed through a 7mm aperture and averaged over 10 seconds. Do not attempt to remove the protective housing of the scanner, as unscanned laser light with a peak output up to 0.8mW would be accessible inside.
Laser Light Viewing: The scan window is the only aperture through which laser light may be observed from this product. A failure of the scanner motor, while the laser diode continues to emit a laser beam, may cause emission levels to exceed those for safe operation. The scanner has safeguards to prevent this occurrence, If, however, a stationary laser beam is emitted, the failing scanner should be dis­connected from its power source immediately.
Adjustments: Do not attempt any adjustments or alteration of this product. Do not remove the protective housing of the scanner. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Caution: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of proce­dures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous laser light exposure.
Optical: The use of optical instruments with this product will increase the eye hazard. Optical instruments include binoculars, magnifying glasses, and microscopes but do not include normal eye glasses worn by the user.

Connecting and Mounting
Power
The scanner needs a minimum of 200mA at 5V power. The power link interface cable that comes with the scanner sup­ports both direct power (where the scanner takes power from the host machine) and external power (the power adapter that's plugged into an AC outlet). If the host machine sup­plies power, it must be the same as the input power specified (200mA @ 5V). When external power is used, the scanner does not take power from the host machine. There is no on/off switch on the scanner. It turns on when power is connected and turns off when power is removed. It is advised to turn off your POS or host system before installing the scanner to avoid electronic damage to your computer. Make sure to use only AC/DC power adaptor approved for the scanner. The usage of other power supplies may cause damage to the product that's not covered by factory war­ranty.
Verifying Scanner Operation
Before installing the scanner, follow the procedures below to make sure scanning go on properly.
1. Connect the scanner with host through cable that is
attached to the scanner.
2. (If adaptor is not required, go directly to step 4) Insert
the 8-pin modular plug of the power link cable into the “host” connector in the back of the scanner until a firm click is heard.
3. Plug the power adaptor into the jack on the power link
cable.
4
4. When the scanner powers up, LED light up in green and
the buzzer makes four short beep sounds. When the self-test is finished the LED light will turn red.
5. Place the "test barcode" in front of the scanner. If the
scanner works right, it will make a short beep sound, and the LED will show green light indicating a good read, then the "test barcode" can be removed.
NOTE: (1) If the scanner does not make any beep sounds or
makes the wrong beep sound or no LED light shows when power is connected, remove power from scan­ner and refer to troubleshooting section.
(2) If the scanner is using RS-232 or keyboard wedge
interface cables, it is able to scan barcodes continu­ously when power is on. If the scanner is using USB interface cable, it will only be able to scan barcodes continuously only when connected to a host. If the scanner is not connected to a host, it will be able to read one barcode only (LED light stays green).
Mounting
1. Scan performance will not be affected by the mount-
ing direction of the scanner.
2. Use mounting holes on the bottom or/and back of the
scanner to mount the scanner onto host machine (templates at the last two pages of the manual can be used).

Connecting to the Host
The scanner connects to a host terminal by an interface cable. This cable connects to the scanner with a modular connector, and connects to the host terminal with the con­nector required by the host (RS-232, keyboard wedge, or USB. Different connectors used depending on the host.) Please make sure the right cable is used for connecting the scanner to your host terminal.
Setting Up the Scanner
No set up is required if the scanner is either pre-programmed or it auto-detects and is ready to be used. Otherwise, the scanner must be informed about the type of system it is con­nected to. This can be done quickly using the Programming Guide that’s included in the package. The Programming Guide is used to set parameters such as communication interface type (RS-232, Keyboard, USB), beep tone, beep volume, sleep mode timing and same-code delay time. Set up of a parameter does not interfere with another parameter.
Scan Test
1. With the scanner running (LED red) and the host sys­tem on, scan few known-good barcodes.
2. Check result on host screen. If scanner is reading correctly, no further set up is necessary. If scanner reads incorrectly, then go to Set Up next.
7
Set Up
1. With the scanner running (LED red) and the host sys­tem on, scan <Enter/Exit Programming Mode> bar­code found on the inside cover of the Programming Guide.
2. Scanner is ready for programming if it gives one low beep sound followed immediately by a high beep sound and LED turns green.
3. Find the barcode which corresponds to the parameter you require in the Programming Guide.
4. Scan the desired barcodes one by one as the scan­ner beeps once for every barcode it memorizes.
5. When all finished, scan <Enter/Exit Programming Mode> barcode again. The scanner will beep twice, one long and one short. When LED turns red, the scanner has been programmed.
6. Test scan few known-good barcodes to make sure the scanner reads correctly. If not, try set up proce­dures again.
Operation
This scanner is omnidirectional reading barcodes in sweep and presentation mode depending on the host system it is attached to. Sweep mode means moving items through the scan window (left to right, right to left, top to bottom, bottom to top etc. are all okay). Presentation mode is when an object is moved toward the scan winow (“presented”) until the barcode is read, then the object is removed.

Beeps
Changing Beep Volume
The scanner can be programmed with the Programming Guide to change beeper tone, volume and period. The default beep volume is loud. There are three sound levels: loud, medium, and low.
Sleep Mode
After the scanner has been inactive for a period of time, the laser automatically turns off; after some more time, the motor turns off and the scanner enters “sleep mode” indi­cated by the red status LED blinking once a second. To wake up the unit, simply present an object close to the scan­ner window. The Sleep Mode feature is included to reduce power consumption and to extend scanner life. Note: The scanner includes a motion sensor that detects activity in front of the scan window. The detecting distance is up to about 100mm from the scan window depending on ambient light.
Beeps Status Indications
one beep a barcode has been successfully
decoded
series of 4 beeps *scanner passed self-test and is
operating properly *when scanner is powered up
series of 2 beeps when scanner is entering pro-
gramming mode
continual beep failure indication, return to repair

Controlling the Scanner from a Host System
The scanner can be controlled from the host system via the RS-232C interface. Control can be accomplished by trans­mitting the following single-byte commands to the scanner. The default setting for the commans are as follows:
Note: When the scanner is disabled, the motor of the scan-
ner will stay on until the scanner goes into sleep mode.
Maintaining the Scanner
The scanner rarely needs any maintenance, only an occa­sional cleaning of the scanner window is necessary to remove any dirt or fingerprint. To clean the scanner window, use a soft lint-free cloth and non-abrasive cleaner to avoid scratching the scanner window. The scanner window can be cleaned while the scanner is running.
