Wake Activation Area (Photocell LED Output)

The MS2420 scanner’s default power save mode† is Dual Action Power Save Mode #2 (see page 39). This power save mode turns the laser OFF after a configured period of non-use then turns the motor OFF after thirty-minute intervals. Any movement detected by the photocell in the activation area, shown below in grey, will cause the scanner to exit the power save mode. The motor will restart automatically and the laser will turn back on preparing the scanner for bar code recognition, decoding and transmission.
