Hand Held Products 2020/5620 system manual Locked Link Mode, Open Link Mode

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.

* Locked Link Mode

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.

Override Locked Scanner

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.
