7.1 Power management
You can configure your scanner to work at 20 dBm (default setting) or 10 dBm through BaracodaManager.
Due to local law, you may not use 20 dBm in some countries (like Italy).
Please refer to your local law before using your scanner.
7.2 Sniff period
The higher the sniff period is, the higher is the latency and the smaller is power consumption.
Default value is 150ms.
7.3 Low battery
A red blinking LED indicates that the battery level is low. Recharge batteries. When the LED is continuously
red, you can no longer scan barcodes.
• How to recharge the battery:
Plug the cradle connector into the AC wall adapter, then place the 2604 in the cradle.
When the scanner is inserted into the cradle and charging, the LED is red (solid).
When the scanner is fully charged, the LED will become a solid green.
A full recharge (from completely drained batteries) takes approximately 5 hours.
When the original batteries wear out, please contact your Baracoda reseller for replacements.
