Locked Link Mode
If you link a scanner to a base using the Locked Link Mode, this blocks other
scanners from being linked if they are inadvertently placed into the base. If you
do place a different scanner into the base, it will charge the scanner, but the
scanner will not be linked.
To use a different scanner, you need to remove the original scanner by scanning
the Unlink Scanner bar code. (See "Unlinking the Scanner" on page 1-6.)
If you need to replace a broken or lost scanner that is linked to a base, scan the
Override Locked Scanner bar code below and place that scanner in the base.
The locked link will be overridden; the broken or lost scanner’s link with the base
will be removed, and the new scanner will be linked.
Open Link Mode
When newly shipped or defaulted to factory settings, the base and scanner are
not linked. By placing a scanner into the base, they establish a link. Placing a
different scanner into the base establishes a new link and the old scanner is
unlinked. Each time a scanner is placed into the base, it becomes the linked
scanner; the old scanner is unlinked.
