Cordless Scanner

The cordless scanner enables fast and accurate bar code scanning using a non- contact linear scanner.

The scanner is comprised of a linear scanner, a decode/control assembly, and an RF communication module. The scan engine performs the bar code image illumination and sensing. The decode/control assembly coordinates the central communication activities including: capturing and decoding the bar code image data, performing software activities (parameter menuing, visual indicator support, low battery indication), and data translation required for the host system. The RF communication module performs the data exchange between the scanner and the base.

System Conditions

The components of the cordless system interact in specific ways as you associate a scanner to a base, as you move a scanner out of range, bring a scanner back in range, or swap scanners between two cordless systems. The following information explains the cordless system operating conditions.

Linking Process

Once an imager is placed into the base, the imager’s battery charge status is checked, and software automatically detects the imager and links it to the base depending on the selected link mode.

Scanner Is Out of Range

The cordless scanner is in communication with its base, even when it is not transmitting bar code data. Whenever the scanner can’t communicate with the base for a few seconds, it is out of range. If the scanner is out of range and you scan a bar code, the scanner issues a triple beep indicating no communication with the base. In addition, your scanner and base can sound an alarm if programmed to emit an alarm. See Out-of-Range Alarm on page 1-13.

Scanner Is Moved Back Into Range

The scanner re-links if the scanner or the base have been reset or out of range. If the scanner re-links, you will hear a single chirp when the re-linking process (uploading of the parameter table) is complete.

Out of Range and Back into Range with Data Accumulation Mode On

The scanner may store a number of symbols (approximately 500 UPC symbols, others may vary) when out of range and then send them to the base when back in range. You will not hear a communication error beep in this mode, but you will hear a short buzz when you pull the trigger if the radio communication is not working. Once the radio connection is made, the scanner produces a series of beeps while the data is being transferred to the base.
