NOTE

Scanner: Pass UPC/EAN bar code labels in front of the scanner’s win- dows. Since the interface cable is not yet connected to the POS ter- minal, the scanner may be limited to reading only one or two labels (see the note that follows). The scanner indicates when each label has been successfully read by flashing the green scanner light and emitting a good read tone (beep).

When not connected to the host, the scanner may be limited to reading only one or two labels. (This limitation is dependent upon the interface type.) To scan multiple labels without connecting to the host, place the unit in Scanner Diagnostic Mode by pressing the Volume/Tone Push Button for four seconds.

EAS System: The way in which EAS tags are deactivated is dependent upon the way the scanner is currently programmed with regard to EAS Mode. (See “EAS Mode” on page 6-48.) To test EAS system function...

Coupled Mode — Pass an item containing both a bar code and an active EAS tag over the scanner. Successful deactivation is indicated by the bottom-most LED flashing first red, then orange, then returning to green. The beeper will sound a good read beep.

If you have enabled the manual deactivation function available for Coupled Mode (see “Manual EAS Deactivation Push Button” on page 6-53), test the function by pressing the bottom push button. A ticking sound will be heard which should cease upon deactivating an EAS tag.

Decoupled Mode — In this mode, items do not require a bar code to be scanned to arm the deactivation function. Simply pass an active EAS tag over the scanner in the same direction you would scan a bar code. The bottom-most LED will flash red to indicate deactivation. No beep is sounded to indicate deactivation in this mode.

Hybrid Mode — In Hybrid Mode, the scanner must be enabled, however EAS deactivation in this mode also takes place without needing to scan an item’s bar code. Pass an active EAS tag over the scanner in the same direction you would scan a bar code. The bot- tom-most LED will flash red, then orange, then return to green. The beeper may be configured to sound a high frequency beep to announce successful deactivation.
